Why was RedScarlet demodded, anyway?
The site has improved so much since the days of Drinky Crow and his ilk and the not de-nutted mod version of Amir0x.
Institutionalized trolling and deception are never good for a community and I'm personally super pleased with the way that Neogaf has matured into the place we now know and love.

I'm aware that splinter forums are a thing that happens, but that is not in itself reasonable justification for their existence. I clearly operate differently than many of these posters on splinter forums do at some fundamental level, as my instinctive response to being banned would be to just do something else with my life.
What happened to bangladesh? That dude had the greatest thread titles and grammar.
RedScarlet
That and it was during the "New news. New thread"/No mega threads transition period. Can't remember if it was Costanza or not, but someone had a fit and spammed the front page with every tiny bit of new Rock Band news within a 10 minute space in an attempt to show how dumb they thought the policy was.
Why did Eggman, Segata, and Aguirre all get Perm'd for?
I really liked Burnt Pork.

Haha that's amazing. That'd be so funny for you two.I remember the day I realized i worked with MAF in real life. i felt like I knew a celebrity.
I remember Opa-Opa and the original Futami lol
I always enjoyed Drinky's rants on the gaming side. Thought he was perm'd, but apparently not. Unless that EBT thread finally did him in.
While not so notorious, I sometimes miss Segata's comments on things. He seemed fair and had a generally good attitude. I can't even remember the thread that pushed him overboard, but his farewell post was accurate.
I miss Manos, but he got booted for a reason. Man, watching him go to town on the Occupy threads was somethin' else.

Gary Whitta? Deleted half his posts and stopped posting because he's writing a Star Wars standalone
There's MetalAlien who was permabanned.
He was a personal friend of mine. We used to hang out every now and then. After his permaban, he disappeared. His phone number changed and I couldn't find any way of contacting him and I can't remember where he lived. I don't know if he still lives in this city or not and I'm a bit concerned because he seems to have wiped out his Alien: Interactive Game website and most if not all traces of his Internet presence. When I last went to his Alien website, all it said was "I'm done" or something to that effect, which is why I'm concerned. However, he never really seemed depressed or anything when I knew him.
Lured in with a copy of Uncharted, no doubt.Wood chipper accident.
After the rock band purge I remember Costanza and a few others created a GAF-spin off forum which I believe is basically dead at this point. Never really took off. Don't even remember the name.
Woah... Link?it's not dead
Woah... Link?
Thought he just changed his name to LoudNinja. Different guy?Wollan's tag was a lie. Never expected him to be permd.
Most likely, yes. He liked guns and I believe he posted videos of him shooting them here in the desert.Was he the guy with the .50 cal?

I believe it has something to do with her giving away moderator information to banned members in a NeoGAF spinoff forum, the 3rd and most recent one (i.e. the Rock Band crowd). EviLore posted about it once.
i miss eggman btw
Anybody remember the old school heroes??
MAF
Drinky Crow
Demi
Free NintendosBooger!
That guy was hilarious.
Then there was the guy who kept talking about preppies. He didn't last long.
Ah yeah that's the name of it.That would be Wasting Your Life. The reason it wound up not taking off was because there was a power struggle between some of the bigger posters from the Rock Band thread and some other GAF ex-pats that wound up causing a lot of issues and drove away a good chunk of the posters. I think it's still around, but like you said, it may as well be dead.
it's not dead
Just Google the name Ridley posted. I just did and it basically is dead minus a few posts a day if that.Woah... Link?
blackace? is he no longer a mod?
A dark time for all.
