square fansite i joined in 1999 still exists.

square fansite I wrote for and moderated for is dead but I still talk to those people. We've been talking since 1999.

[Steve Contra]

I read Treesong's fansite when he created it and then like 17 years later I went to his wedding.

[D3RANG3D]

I joined GAF in 2005 and I still only got about 1500 posts.

i joined gaf in 2005. when i first started posting there was a mod named drinky cow. he was shitting on nintendo. i couldn't believe his views on nintendo. i lost my cherry that day and drinky cow took it.

[Steve Contra]

It was a nice wedding in a Japanese garden and Treesong and everyone was happy and then some longhair jumped down from above and stabbed his wife and then all these crazy fucking dragon robots came out of the ground and we had to fly around the world doing all kinds of crazy shit but she never came back :'(

[Steve Contra]

Team X-Box had some truly awful posters around the time of the 360s launch.  All terrible ex-Sega fans.

[Positive Touch]

I think I've been reading GAF and its predecessor GEO since late 1996 or so, but I'm not sure when I first actually signed up for the forum. But there are definitely people here who I've 'known' since 1995 from Usenet newsgroups and such.

lmao i remember you from when i lurked toastyfrogs site

[Steve Contra]

that ain't newsworthy

Yeah there were like...lots of people who did that and were there.

[Steve Contra]

The "I wish I had known this information earlier" look my wife gave me when I told her that I originally knew who Treesong was through a Final Fantasy fansite in the mid-nineties was priceless

PS3 fans were far more obnoxious than the initial Xbots. The Xbots were young and full of optimism, thus rather harmless. PS3 fans were constantly angry, constantly dismissive of the Xbox 360, constantly discussing how the PS3 was going to dominate, wait until x is released, supply is low, etc.

And now we're seeing it again. They shut up a few years ago after it became clear the PS3 lost, but the PS4 has revived their bullshit. God I hope the NFL and shooterz ensure the XB1 wins the US. I don't even care about the DRM fiasco now, in hindsight of what Sony fucktards have become.

[Himu]

You don't find the more ardent x1 supporters equally as annoying?

I'm not talking about the average fans, I mean the really bitter terrible Sega fans who were with Microsoft by default

[CatsCatsCats]

I remember when I thought my gamecube was all I needed. What a feg.

[MrAngryFace]

I was around GEO forums back at the start (worked on the site itself)- got ya'll beat! Technically there was a site before GEO even, which is crazy. That said I don't post on those forums anymore so fuk it

[Steve Contra]

[Steve Contra]

You know what I miss most about GAF?

The bargain bin shit game challenges type shit that you could actually do there and have fun with.  I remember MAF playing Robocop.  Now the site is too big and too serious.

Personally I always found Sega diehards too hilarious to hate. They're like Cleveland Browns fans.

i remember maf buying a bunch of crap games and having fun with it

Yeah, that was like, every week and still is.  MAF is the only dude I know who has honest taste in games.

Prole played Robocop! I played umm some horrible Might and Magic game.

Those were the days....

[MrAngryFace]

It's true, my lack of expectation for games makes it pretty easy for any game to have its way with me. That could be good or bad!

[recursivelyenumerable]

I always thought "Gaming Enthusiast Online" was kind of a hilarious name as to me it sounded like a euphemism for a fetish lifestyle or something

[Shadow Mod]

I need to read old drinky for inspiration.

[Himu]

pick up a dictionary, that is old drinky.

[Himu]

real talk: i learned more high vocab than from drinky than i did from college English.

[Himu]

[Himu]

[Shadow Mod]

pick up a dictionary, that is old drinky.

no, pick up a dictionary and beat an idiot with it until they cry, *that* is old drinky.

I'll read from a thesaurus while I beat the shit out of someone with a becktionary.

[Himu]

agreed.

[Shadow Mod]

TBH spitting seems like a waste of time and if you don't like the taste, you'll just have it in your mouth longer.

[recursivelyenumerable]

Didn't seem to work out that well for you

that is a grammar not vocab issue

A tip if/when you have a steady bf, get him to eat pineapple himu.

I need to read old drinky for inspiration.

Here you go:

"I picture everyone on here (dudes and dudettes alike) as the same babyfat, pasty-faced thirteen-year-olds, tears of petulant rage streaming down their chubby cheeks whenever anyone makes fun of Nintendo, anime, or Sega Sports.

Well, except Tazz, who I prefer to think of as a crochety old grandmother holed up in some musty corner, her rocking chair creaking and knitting needles clacking. Occasionally, she'll get some kind of Tourette's fit going and hurl cats at all the surly children.

I see myself as a sort of the 50's Ward Cleaver dad of this forum, back from work at the office, my smoker's pipe at a jaunty, Church-of-the-Subgenius angle between my teeth as I mug ingratiatingly to the studio audience. I try to sit down and have a nice page through the paper, but one of the brats starts squalling so I hafta beat him but good somewhere off camera. Then it's back to the fake smiles and canned punchlines that everyone loves so much"

From that link, this is way funnier:




Who would have known that the stone ages were only 10 years ago.

Whatever happened to drohne?  A good old fashioned Drinky/drohne tag team in a Nintendo thread was a thing of beauty.

[Himu]

I like that page Texp posted because there are posters I actually recognize. Like 95% of the posters on that page. Remember when gaf was like that? Definitely before it switched to NeoGAF and was.still a part of gaming age.

[Human Snorenado]

Catering to the spergs was the beginning of the end for gaf. Oh well.

[Barry Egan]

I am extremely computer illiterate so I never understood what was funny about Super Kyro

[recursivelyenumerable]

Deadmeat was what was funny.

I'm pretty sure that was a photoshop and there was no such thing. Even if there was such a video card, it looked ridiculous.

[Van Cruncheon]

did we EVER find out if crystal let willco put it in her butt?

[Van Cruncheon]

also, mid-season drinky was the best drinky, when he put down the fuckin' thesaurus  and honed his schtick to one-liners that spun up 50+ page rage threads. duder understood timing and restraint at long last.

the crap game shit is actually hilarious and pleasantly sincere in its coarseness, which is why giant bomb gets it. save the pompous pearl clutching and hyperanalysis of my patented panty patrol gamez for facebook groups

PEAK EFFICIENCY. devo, some advice in your pursuit of the TERROR OF THE GAFS title: less words gives passive-aggressive geeks more to imagine (ands gives you less investment). more words gives them more to fisk. i'm sure there's a dune quote that sums this up.
