I enjoyed 50 foot ant's Humpermonkey ex military persona. I still keep that story about serving at an outpost in Germany during the winter that turned out to be a former nazi lodge or something. Its pretty good and spooky.

It wasn't fine literature, but it was entertaining bullshit to read on a cold winter day.

Yeah, it was pretty good but he should've had his own thread and not taken over the ghost stories thread for 1000s of words at a time. Speaking of, where the hell did those go? I liked the dumb goon ghost stories.

I wish there was a way to relive the night GBS dropped the rules, the speedy destruction of megathreads as posters turned against their idols was absolutely magical.

Someone can probably give a much better account of it than I can but the gist of it is that hellbastard had a giant megathread in which he posted an mspaint comic about a wacky badass pirate named captain half-face jack mcbastard or something like that. He posted comics in that thread for years and the thread praised him endlessly and basically never criticized him. Then the rules went away, and this state of affairs changed dramatically as hordes upon hordes of people poured into his thread to trash his dumb pirate comic.

The best was the SCP thread where there was a rule against making fun of the SCP darling entry about how good child rape is. The day the rules fell was a great reckoning

It's a crime that Hellbastard's thread didn't get goldmined. It was like the hyenas in the Lion King.

Do you have any of the other stories? I've been trying to find the ones where he gets into a fight with a half-track (IT STARTED IT!!!) and the one where he had a fistfight vs a superior officer on top of an ammo palette.

The original one was by Bulmer, who is a generally normal, if weird, sing-y person who does art and lives in a magical place known as Manchester. The one you're thinking of is The Glavwen, who is Welsh and turned out to have a furry for a wife who did the art for that advent calendar.

I'm also glad SA managed to chase away a bunch of it's content creators in the name of GBS shitposters rights to say friend of the family and tranny and whatever other foul bullshit was apparently only constrained by the rules telling them not to post like reprehensible shitheaps. Thankfully those rules were abolished. And then unrelatedly /pol/ and it's ilk sprung up bit after that. GBS isn't quite /pol/ of course, but maybe /pol/-lite.

Until the last user leaves, until the last byte of memory on the empty server goes cold, until the dead server is dismantled, until the dismantled parts are rust and dust and rot and lost to time, this dying forum, and the old ways it represents, will persist. Hold fast.

I'm probably gonna get laughed at for agreeing to the basics of this post, but I do. GBS became the worst forum for a long time and it's only recently returning to a readable state, and even then every other thread is white noise garbage that should be gassed.
