Snitchin' is Bitchin'
It was kind of nice when the forums had so few posters that the most mundane threads got a good amount of attention. The "what is this weird thing I found in my house" or "this dumb thing happened to me" lead to pretty amusing threads.

That and forum grudges.

Hah, I remember this. Some dude posted a thread called "Post your favorite things" or something, then tried to post a picture of a vacuum. It didn't work so he edited his post to "there seems to be a porblem" and in SA fashion, it took off from there.
I think this is the kind of thing that I miss most. Spontaneous bouts of the community coming together to make something really dumb become really funny. It happened somewhat infrequently, but the forums were so small that threads like that were hard to miss. Mod challenges are sort of bringing this feeling back.

And to those of you saying that the forum has become more PC: in some ways the general dialogue is more "grown up" but a lot of the humor is still generally twisted. A lot of the time when people get called out it's not because they are misunderstood, but instead are in fact horrible people.
