Nice to see a few people still look at the board.

I tend to pop by for a cursory scroll down the front page every few weeks and it makes me a little wistful.

I actually ended up looking at the board today as Facebook told me it was 11 years since I joined there. It reminded me that I was talked into joining Facebook by @Carlybag (just realised that the @ tag doesn't work on here!)   and at the time I said "why the hell do I need this place when we have Hijack!"  

*On that note one thing that Hijack has that Facebook doesn't (and really needs) is these guys:        

I'm still in Bristol. Still make it to clubs regularly but mainly in a work capacity as I'm a full-time events promoter. I guess I have Hijack to thank for helping me get started out promoting. Thankfully poster wars is now largely a thing of the past though.

I'm 10 years into a relationship with a lovely lass (who was never a member on here) and we own a house and a cat.

Still in regular contact with a few old members including Obscene (we share an office) Carlybag, Bandit / TS2W (who I run the events company with), Keef and a few others. Would be cool to see a fee more of you about too although I expect a Hijack party is out of the question these days.

Glad to see that a few others still check on here occasionally too.

I did recently update to OSX 10.4.7,

  Is this spam from 2006?

? ? ?

I check in about once every few months just to see if the calendars working.

 

plus I still miss this guy 

I miss this guy in life. Turn out my sarcasm isn't always obvious.

Waddup!

I left Bristol about 8/9 years ago but I visit as often as I can. I was actually last in a nightclub a month or two ago for Mungo's Hifi at Thekla, but that doesn't happen very often! I work in CRM at Heathrow Airport but I'm about to start up a production agency producing all their marketing assets. I also run a little music festival back home in Godalming. That's in it's 7th year this year. Stops me feeling too old, and helps me pretend I'm cool. I still DJ parties and pubs as long as I can playu what I like. I've run through a few girlfriends including 1) Drug addict 2) Married and 3) 16 years my junior. Surprisingly none worked out. Latest one is definately a keeper though.

I'm really keen to see what matey with the motorbike, the haircut and the unhealthy interest in kids is up to.

Still here every now and again - used to laugh at those threads back then;  thinking how seriously some people took themselves and I  got told off a few times by Admin for rubbing people up the wrong way..  The whole   thing - "if I put that at the end of an insult then its OK.."   Yeah.. OK..

Only really used this place to promote our night   laugh at Scrumpy? and Zammo and see what else was going on in Bristol - I was never part of the Hijack inner circle.

Now in my mid/late 40s with two almost teenage children and a respectable day job .   The last night I was involved with was in 2012 and don't think I've been out since apart from a few private parties where I felt I wanted to go home and go to bed at 10PM.  

Social media killed Hijack, does Facebook have a calendar BTW?     The smoking ban, inflated running costs of clubs and the new generation who seem not interested killed small clubs in Bristol.   I hear motion is where its at these days?    

I check in about once every few months just to see if the calendars working.

I have just turned 40, am still not married but we have 2 kids (1&3) and a mortgage so it seems kind of pointless now.

Living in Knowle a whole 5 minutes walk from where I was 10 years ago.

Twice a week I drive my grey estate car to the offices of a huge US corporation (by a roundabout in Swindon), rest of the time I work from home (not massively productive with 2 young kids)

I am not sure I even went to clubs very often in 2008, but I now cant remember the last time I did. Still get out to one off day time things every now and again, Downs festival, LSTD etc.

Have been loving some of the bumps of old threads, Hijack was proper funny at times, plus I still miss this guy 

Hello,

I purchased Audio Hijack Pro a few months ago so that I could quickly record mp3s of my band's rehearsals and other projects I was working on to listen to on my mp3 player. I did this quite a few times with no problem. Now suddenly it doesn't work with Live anymore. I did recently update to OSX 10.4.7, but besides Live, all of the other hijacked programs record with no problem. Basically, the "Hijack" button says "active", but the second:minute counter doesn't run, and when I hit record, it says "recording", but again the counter stays at 0:00 and no audio levels show on the level meters. This is driving me crazy, as it was one of the most useful programs. No more rendering and then converting to mp3 in another program, just straight up recording. Any ideas? Or is there a way to simply have my Macbook go back to the earlier version of 10.4.6?

Please help

I didn't find the right solution from the internet.
