[QUOTE="Victorious_Fize"]Bans... a lot of bans, I remember. Otherwise, the Dynasty Warriors Union has enough history for me to forget all others. :)Welkabonz
They did a good job of archiving everything and harden007 was meticulous about keeping tabs on everyone's movements.

I know harden for two things, benevolence for the DWU, and his vehement vendetta towards leftist. :P

I miss Snipes. He was probably the worst debator I've ever seen on GS (tho there are a few people that seem to want his throne), but the threads with him in them could be really fun sometimes.

Don't me wrong. Banning Snipes definitely made debates thread here a little less dumb, but his debating was so ridiculously bad that he was entertaining.

I remember 4 or 5 years ago (I've been a lurker for a long time) someone made a thread on OT about how his roommate had joined a cult and was plotting to kill him. The OP even provided all sorts of picture evidence. Of course it ended up being fake, but he had pretty much everyone going for a while.

  • System Wars, right after E3 2006. No sony fanboy could be seen on the board for weeks :lol: . The memes that were created were the giant enemy crab, real time weapon change, $599 US dollars and RIIIIIIIIIIIDGE RAAACEEEER! :lol:
  • Waiting for the countdown until Rockstar Games showed the first GTA 4 trailer. Gamespot was slow, Gametrailers crashed, Gamevideos crashed and the Rockstar's site crashed. The overwhelming traffic brought teh interwebs to its knees.
  • Porn suicides
  • The CWU and its evangelism
  • Seeing Zelda: TP flop
  • Jeff Gerstmann getting fired :cry:

I remember when JPL raged in the Jeff Gerstmann thread here. So much hate for GS back then. Of course, who could forget that big april fools prank between solidruss and spazz, and everyone else :D

There's alos many other things. Mohan88's multi-thousand post God vs. Science thread, Crushmasters continuous religious threads, the Cake vs. Pie thread, the 2005 site redesign, just to name a few.

I remember some funny users like WolfAvatar and air_wolf_cubed which I still believe to this day that they were the same person. :P

I also remember when Jeff Gerstmann and Alex Navarro were still here to make honest game reviews.

EDIT: And how can I forget about ZumaJones' sig that owned me over the past years and still does. :D Oh and Jaysonguy who just seams to hate everything... :?

For some odd reason the oldest thing I've kept is one of the Lazer Beam Dolphinz comics. Most of my good memories of Gamespot are all of places and people that have left some time ago sad to say...but life goes on I suppose.

That time there was a glitch where nobody could get banned and a few posters took advantage of it and kept posting porn threads. Funny looking back on it but I think I lost my innocence that night :P

I remember a thread where the TC was terrified because he was cleaning his satanic brother's room and a jar of thumbtacks or something jumped at the wall. It was weirdly hilarious.

The same threads being posted as if on a schedule, and me coming back for nearly six years now to participate. I don't have any legitimately good memories of this place... but I haven't ragequit'd yet, so that means there aren't any bad ones either.

Banned threads in particular certainly stand out. McJugga, Scorch-62's banned thread that wasn't, sideswipes - some ones I remember in particular.

Also cake vs. pie (that was hilarious), the July/August 2010 Wedding threads, various awesome PYPs.

Spazz and xaos' daily comedy duo was hella amusing back in the day. Those two were always having at each other :oops:

Funny Girl Help threads including:

I'm about to ask my teacher out on a date

and

Asked a girl on a date an hour ago and still no responce

General interest threads:

Who in OT would you like to meet in real life?

Your girlfriend walks in to see you on the bed of your love cave...

Dark times:

Let your heart out!!

Reporting your fellow users... Yes or No
