Remember that time when GBS was mostly filled with strangely-informative articles relevant to the time like it was some kind of newsletter, Lowtax thought it wasn't funny enough and rescinded guidelines for it, and then it immediately descended into people posting so many slurs that he eventually had to make a announcement post about how he guessed he'd finally start considering it something worth probating people over?

I remember the second part but I don't remember GBS ever being "mostly filled with strangely-informative articles" because that's an utter loving lie.

I enjoyed the mix of at least mildly interesting news, fun threads, and mspaint/photoshop threads. Unfortunately, people were in too much of a hurry to post articles without sharing any insight or meaningful comments, which annoyed the mods/admins of the time and led to the “GBS is not an RSS” mantra.

When I was an awkward 16 year old I remember being driven to my first goonmeet by somegirl and sulzanti. Everyone was young and being wacky. If we had a goonmeet today it would be a bunch of old dudes drinking beer and talking about seasonings.

Lol. This is exactly what's going to happen at the Florida goonmeet.

I totally was. There was a period of time where GBS was literally just news stories. I think it was around 2012 or 2013 when the rules got relaxed and it changed into the forum we have today.

I'm over 17 years now but I took like a six/seven year hiatus when the mods were horrifically enforcing good grammar and sensical posting which is an anathema to the community

I remember people got probated for not using periods at the end of their sentences, which what?
