Sydin posted:My first ever exposure to Druids was Mandalore and Shammy streaming it, so when I found out that retsupurae also did it I was beyond disheartened that in whatever version they were watching, Lowry had been patched to actually sit properly in his chair instead of float above it like a vengeful god. lowry floating above the chair was the spark that lit the powderkeg, but the powderkeg wasn't ready yet when retsupurae did those videos. it needed time.

I love the Dahir Insaat of the stupid UFO stilt cars, because you already think it's stupid and then they throw you on your rear end with the surprise firefighting quadcopter. It actually got some recent play after a clickbait Twitter shared the video with the commentary of "could this be the future of public transport???".

Veotax posted:The Retsupurae videos may not have aged well, but some of them just stick in my head. "My answer will be less than ten minutes because that is the Youtube limit" still makes me laugh, which also shows how old they are. Was it Retsupurae who did a whole video chatting about the person playing the game only to, about 8 minutes in say somthing like "should we tell them that we're not actually talking about the video yet?" I've been looking for that particular video for years.

My favourite Dahir Insaat video was the one real video they published that was supposed to be a proof of concept for their insane and unfeasible hyper-actuated servo arm poo poo and the thing could barely move, was incredibly unstable, and appeared to break down halfway through the video. Shortly after that video went up, Dahir Insaat tried to scrub the internet of all traces of itself Pulsarcat posted:Was that the LP where you could hear the poor computer basically screaming in pain, so they joked that the computer is literally red hot and the reason the LPer sucked so much is because he couldn't touch the keyboard?

Hell Bed will always be my favorite, but there’s a special place in my heart for that insane quadcopters-lifting-large-stuff-over-overpasses-then-putting-them-back-on-trucks object transportation system. It was a bad idea on an unheard of number of levels.

WeedlordGoku69 posted:...the admins frowning upon that is kinda news to me? i feel like that's something mods are generally totally allowed to do if a poster's being a huge dick but not to probe/ban levels Lowtax was basically a non-entity in terms of modding decisions for years and definitely wasn't a factor during my modding term. He'd just come in, do some dumb bullshit and the real admins like Jeffrey, FAU, and ZDR would try to clean it up as best they could, but really they were the ones running the place and the folks we'd take stuff up the chain to, not Lowtax. And yeah they were generally levelheaded and frowned upon snap-judgement big bombastic actions in favour of more even-handed punishments. I think the biggest thing I did as a mod was kick [the creepy stalker gadfly rear end in a top hat who shall go unnamed] out of both here and LP, and FAU had my back on it because, well, all I did was pull the trigger on something that had been brewing for months at that point. McCloud posted:I thought that was just a perk that came with the suffering of having to mod a forum for no money. Maybe the mods should have a patreon? Maybe some mods acted that way, but I only did title changes as rewards or to fix people getting redtexted when asked or as harmless jokes. I tended to be pretty swing happy with probations and telling people to shut up and gently caress off in said probation reasons when I thought they were being dipshits and assholes, but I always found redtexting a step too far and way too overtly malicious especially for a mod-driven action. QCS loves to malign the poo poo out of the mods, but in my experience they've been some of the funnest, chillest, most levelheaded and thoughtful posters I've ever had the pleasure of interacting with--the very obvious exceptions notwithstanding.

It was never posted anywhere, but in between rounds of commentary for an LP I did a Retsuprae of the Dahir Insaat DentistBot video with ChaosArgate and Jobbo_Fett and I just remember saying something during it like "God, could you imagine if this tiny high pressure device with all its wires, servos, and drill bits malfunctioned and just went berserk inside your mouth? If I went to a dentist and they pulled this horrifying thing out of and tried to stick it on one of my teeth, I'd get up out of the chair and never go back for another checkup."

I think Retsupaurae did one where a guy got super mad at Poochynea and called it the F word and everything spiraled after that. Was it also RP or one of Chip and Ironicus' old RPs where it was a middle school kid and his girlfriend doing an LP of pokemon Yellow that ended with them looking at the youtube pages and showing that they were no longer together?
