If it came down to, like, personal GS memories you would top the list obviously. Or you would be the list maybe. GS/rawsavon are interchangeable concepts in my mind.

...but under dark times

I was looking back at these and more of the 'dark time' threads, I must admit I find them fascinating, seeing pre-Oct '10 opinions of particular users with a certain amount of hindsight about makes for interesting reading.

If I have the patience/free time tomorrow I might read through again just for that reason

Ok you two..this is about epicness not losing a level :P I remember when people made me a meme and the new users thought I was cool and I stomped everyone in the OTcars. It was like divine justice jk that wasn't epic to anyone but me.

arawsavon

lol I meant as in
I can't think of one w/out thinking of the other

If I have the patience/free time tomorrow I might read through again just for that reason

...though I am worried about what I might find (depends on which persona era that falls under)rawsavon

Many OT users have gone through rather marked character changes it would seem (myself included ofc), I found the overwhelming lack of derision an instantly-apparent interest, and also to read 'honest' everyday posts from particular user was surprising - though this may not strike you as it did me since you have had such interaction other places I suppose.

Anyway I'm apparently bent on rambling tonight so sorry but in terms of regarding documents as historical artifacts and their potential therein, I really think you might find Pg. 7 of Let Your Heart Out!! (@30ppp) 8th post down: your post quoting Dystopian and starting with 'I wish we' and ensuing posts, a very singular moment definitely worth reading. A moment of conception. Or inception maybe ;]
But definitely a post leading to a chain of posts resulting in a series of actions that led to a significant and established GSOT change. An OT History-seed indeed.
It's not really that interesting I guess but eh it's there to see and that interests me.

OMNI SLASH DID THAT!? *grumble* :x

I have few meories from my 1 and a half months of postinf so far. that time OT freked out one night in april (or was it march) because they're were so many locked threads and banned users

Also Supergoat and all his fellow trolls.

the first page of this thread http://www.gamespot.com/forums/topic/28504459/the-best-way-to-meet-girls-ever..?page=0 lol, I miss the ArGaia, and his various Alts. (he's had so many, eh?)

Writing a page full of posts with another user on the cheap purchase of a genuine fencing hampster... Please don't ask.

lasts years games of the year votes. Too much flaming guys.

Also remeber joining the FMU... And the proceeding to win they mine raft game night y getting the most diamond

My worst memory was when i was stalked for a week by one guy obsesing over WW3 and the internet.

[QUOTE="topsemag55"]The great debate threads that OT had when people like Sun_Tzu and Pianist took part. LMAO at one of DrSponge's posts.

I miss those guys. I always planned on publicly challenging Pianist to a debate (And probably lose), because I found him to be one of the best.

What my fond memoriees of old gamespot?

When it was actually called Gameguides.com a decade ago and it has the History of game series. Such as History of Resident Evil, History of Star Wars games, etc.

Those were the good old days of Gameguides.com/old school gamespot

The Jeff saga. And I don't care who the hell says otherwise, his firing was a cover-up. People need to admit to their mistakes. Also, all my favorite memories are pre-2010. >_>

Back in the old days when I use to post in SW..oh the countless fanboy asault. OT getting spammed by the french troll dudes, lol that was funny, good thing ruzz saved the day! When someone made a suicide account and started posting nasty images in OT, that was quite an event as well April fools joke! oooh that was one of the best moment in OT history imo.. A couple of YLYL threads, some random crazy threads like when you punch someone they turn into a door or something.. And more that Im forgetting right now..
