After posting this, and reaidng the whole thread, i realize that other people have contributed about the same amount of information that i had in my original post.

Muffins spartan and chucko dropped in for a while, Colt told us about the true beginnings of OFJC, then other reminded me of things like "lmao london france lmao" (which btw im TOTALLY editing in there), and sony_casual and infernal with thier 2 cents

Just goes to show that as much as i tried, SW history is too vast, i forgot to mention a lot of it. But im glad the this thread did exactly what i was hoping it would d: things i forgot to cover in the main post were revealed throughout the thread, and some of the vets came back if only for a moment. good stuff.

I gotta thank you JPOBS. This thread has pushed me to finally create a GS account. i have been a daily visitor to these forums since summer of 05, but i never bothered to join. Well, now i have, thanks to you. I feel like i missed out on so much, even during the time when i was here, but not participating. Well, now that i am here, i hope that these boards can come back to what you said they were, and that me and anyone else who is relatively new can enjoy them as much as you did.

I don't know how long I've been here, but I don't remember anything about the forums being themed differently than they are now. I've been here long enough to learn some infamous names, though. I remember when TwinBlade first made that infamous Einstein/Hitler post, but didn't feel like correcting him. Then there was HALO2xpert, that rabid poster who would make grandiose claims about the game in his name and generally bash others with crude sentences. But worst of all was thestud77, the notorious anti-hermit who slammed PC gaming mostly because "they don't sell as much as on the consoles", and other ridiculous claims. He even goes as far to insist that all hermits are forever virgins and whatnot, making personal attacks just because of gaming platform preferences. Ironically, I recall him posting something about how much he liked Maniac Mansion on the NES and wished that there were more games like it...or something like that. Of course, if it weren't for his anti-PC bias, he would probably enjoy Day of the Tentacle and all of those other SCUMM-based games quite a bit. As for me, I'm probably not really worth talking about...at least not now.

I'm trying to see if I can get a record of my previous names. I hope it wasn't me, because that would be proof that my brain has been ****ing fried.

System Wars reminds me of Killzone..The former SW forumites casted away to a distant land (SW2.com)the survivors of the golden age calling current GSpot forumites inferior(n00bs). I feel a civil war coming amongst GSpot posters. HILARIOUS! I posted this over at SW2.com but I got banned ROFL!

Oh man this thread is absolutely amazing! I joined GlitchSpot soon after i first saw Sony's E3 05 presentation and become a cow. I never really posted often, mostly i watched from the side lines. I post in SWars more often now-a-days. Turned into a manticore and gained some valuable logic on the way as well.

i hate fanboys, but reading this thread shows me just how important they are/were to everyone in SW's. I hate to say it, but manticores are some what ruining this place. We need more ignorant fanboys.
