I am always hearing people on the GS forums talk about the dark ages when people were afraid to post because they might get banned?

That wouldn't bother me, if they abided by the same rules, which they don't.

The age before Gamespot.com was created. It was a tough time to live, but I somehow managed.

It's because Gamespot's proctologist retired and they never hired a new one. (I'm joking, please don't ban me)

I wasn't afraid to post, but I was careful of how I worded my posts. Many of my favorite posters were banned not too long ago.

I thought you were talking about that time in European history when the government was basically a bunch of kids saying "I own this land!" and people rolled around in their own dirt and feces.

the dark ages on gamespot are where saddam's henchmen are scared to talk about bodily functions, sex, race, but love church threads and iraq.

Not the most happiest of memories. Many great users banned for somewhat vague reasons... yet still they did violate the ToU and were given proper punishment.

It was a period of time after the fall of the Roman Empire, where society stagnated until the feudal system and the middle ages came along.
