I did enjoy the Duke gang tag mysteriously changing to a Serious Sam one just after the release of DNF when everyone realised it was exploitative trash. And Axe disappearing for a couple of months soon afterward. Good times.

Kurnugia posted:well, the guy did intentionally turn himself into a meme. and sure, maybe his regret for that is genuine and he would like to be forgotten now, but getting permaed for pedophilia advocacy is still a thing that happened and it's still pretty goddamn hilarious. i guess it would be good for seraph to get all those posts scrubbed, but it won't make me forget that it happened, or stop me from posting jokes about it. and further, trying to ban goons from laughing at something is liable to cause the exact opposite result No, I was saying that if Terrible Opinions had just out of nowhere decided to start rumors of Seraph being on a registry due to something involving a family member, that's a pretty messed up thing to make up about someone for a few different reasons. It sounds, though, like that isn't the case and it's something that had arisen before. I am pretty much just saying that in general we shouldn't accuse people of pedophilia/being sex offenders without some sort of basis.

Turned into one of Those SC People, then got arrested for... well, you can infer.

Yeah, what I was kinda getting at is that if people were accusing seraph of being a registered offender without having backed it up somehow, they likely would have been banned for it.

Love it when the sagas come from inside the thread. Seraph coming in does make me wonder... do you think former posters ever stop and are like "wassss.... onmnnnce... a. Goooooooooon"? Like ElfPr0n opens a browser tab and looks at old bookmarks and just sighs?

I'm sure a few of them, the people who posted for years and years, 10k's of posts, probably have accounts they just manage to have the self control to not post from. I can't really imagine anyone so furious that after eating a perma having browsed and posted on the forums for 5-10 years they just give up and go to reddit or 4chan. Even the SASS people were constantly browsing anonymously even though a few of them just couldn't help themselves and start flinging poo poo.

Terrible Opinions posted:I'm just glad that seraph has finally learned to stop posting screen stretching graphs or pictures of his own bare rear end in every single one of his posts. Unless that was a different brain wormed YOSPOS bitcoiner. he did really like graphs though, and linking tepid burns to youtube videos.

So speaking of people who inserted "badass" images into their posts whenever they thought they made a point, did Jim Profit ever end up on SA's trad games? I remember him making the rounds and getting banned from just about every other trad games discussion platform in the late aughts, but I was browsing SA at the time. He had very strong opinions about the correct way to play nerd games and embedded naruto screenshots in every single post.

He was so loving intense (apparently on set as well as on film), but also capable of being absolutely hilarious when called for.

I watched the Unorthodox miniseries the other day and it reminded me of one of the best threads of all time, Fascinator's Ask me about growing up in a Hasidic community. It's an amazing story that may or may not have brought creepy Satmar watchdogs to SA.

Have some contentDurf posted:One of my fave SA stories was where a girl's blind date was going well and she ended up back at the dude's place. He's got a pizza in the oven and they're making out, but when the timer goes off he pulls away and gets this look of terror on his face, and says "This is my least favorite part "
