I miss Aguirre, I never talked to him/her but they always made me laugh with their kawaii uguu schtick.

There's a poster in the Pics That Make You Laugh thread that we think is Aguirre. Posts very rarely, only in that thread, and says "I just want to be left alone" and other weird shit.
 
Eggman was a really funny guy. His trolling always seemed to be very innocuous and not mean spirited.

Fiction is to me without a single doubt the nicest female poster here.

Gaborn & Scorcho. Sadness hit me pretty hard everytime I remember them.

Scorcho's last post (I think) talking about his girlfriend giving him a bath was so heartbreaking :(
 
Also, there was a dude who would write soft corn porn description.

He even got a tag for it lol. I totally forgot his name.
 
Is that the thing where people jerk off over their animu uguu figures?

Maaaaybe

OMG! You guys remember that all of a sudden "Zelda Williams" started posting??

it was an impersonator! http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1011901&highlight=

what asshole would do that??

I remember people saying (mostly nice I think?) things to her about her dad and stuff and the user would absolutely play the part saying "thanks, that would made my dad happy" and stuff like that. disgusting,

Ayesha Tyler had an impersonator as well.
 
-Olimario (trading nudies of his ex for a PSP)
-All those people with the Shawn Michaels snowglobe avatars (some of them still post I think)
-JPRaup/DanielPlainview (he went to the same college as me, big movie guy)
-opa-opa
-whoever that guy was who flipped out about the Dreamcast 2 and its brand new PowerVR
-Onix (we worked for the same company, though in different locations, way back when)
-Jim (oldskool Gaming Age guy)
-ManaByte (truck driver saga)
 
Who came up with SuperKyro? DocRock?

Trying to remember the name of that one poster who had to come up with a receipt for a purchase of a PS2. Think it started with a D.

:lol @ ManaByte and the Truck Driving saga.
 
2.) SmokeyDave, president of the Vita defense force, who could spin any discussion into a talk about the Vita's merits. Anyone know what happened to him?

I believe that he went on a weird tangent about Europe/British is a superior bla bla bla compared to the US and since he did that quite often, the last ban was a perm.
 
Seems a lot of the most well known posters are some of the most notorious and of course, banned for it after enough time. That or they become mods. Still its always funny seeing all these people asking what happened to them and the answer is almost always,"BANNED"
 
What was the name of the guy who posted really bad fictional stories with juvenile humour, who would always get pissed when people called him out?

ForzaItalia

What did Lemurnator in?

And I remember f@lus always inviting gaffers traveling to Paris to the clubs he was promoting.
 
Demi
DoomBringer
Himuro (I forget why he was permed)
PhoenixDark (never knew he was permed)
Jarosh (first gif/photoshop legend)
Draft (I think he's still here, but not very active)
Hitler Stole My Potato
Gahiggiddy
Astrolad
beelzebozo

I believe Himuro went off on a female poster who always talked about her boob job. I don't remember her name.

PD made an image meme with Opiate's Real Pic as a reply to a topic. This was after Opiate's demodding due to the his harshness with another poster.
 

I am not sure why so many people remember Demi that much, that was a story that happened if I am correct, more than 10 years ago, around years 2005, 2006, guy was all over the place and funny but never seemed to me like he was permaban material. I wonder what pushed mods to perm' him.

people even remember the catchy "free demi" phrase after the ban

it was never clear to me if the user was in a fan group of Nick Frost or the real Nick Frost, I think also many people were confused about that and didn't know at the time.
 
Yes Himuro basically went off and said that the poster was specifically always making everything about her boobs. Then he stormed off into the non-GAF world. He had a avatar of himself in the snowy woods right?

Ooh yeah that's right, I remember now, thanks.

jarosh still pops in the videogame vinyl thread from time to time. he works as a sound engineer for bravewave music, and has a game that got greenlit on steam

Damn, that game looks great. Thanks for pointing that out, I figured he was gone completely.
 
One the biggest times in lurking for me was the smash bros dojo thread and so I really loved the regulars of that thread. Especially Jiggy (Jiggy37) with their crazy write ups. They just vanished after getting into an argument about disliking the direction the Wii Shop took after 2008 (of less Virtual Console games). It is exactly a satisfying closure...

Yeah, another one that I just remembered is Andrex?

I seem to recall him being big into Pokemon (and a Google fanboy lol)
Didn't they like the Opera web browser as well? I also remember one of their posts being in a google image search your GAF user name type thread and finding of course, the Andrex puppy; mascot of Andrex toilet paper.
 
Whatever happened to Devolution? I got used to seeing that cat beard avatar.

In terms of splash entries I don't see anyone beating RawNuts. Ever.

SunhiLegend is a GAF institution.
 
Turns out there are some extremely fucked up people on this forum

Some guy tried to do some sort of "self-mutilation OT" thread,

In his OP he presented pics of his chest with open wounds he did himself with a knife.

he said He tried cutting his balls but that it would hurt too much.

after like 30 posts of "what in the fuck am I seeing?" posts, thread was closed, deleted and user permabanned

............. -_-

we really don't see everything that happens in this place, mods do a damn fine job really. mad props to them for having to deal with stuff like this.

That could have possibly been Richey Edwards from the Manic Street Preachers! Now we'll never know and he continues to be missing.

Impersonating people on internet message boards is somewhere pretty close to the most utterly pathetic thing a person can do. I don't know what has to happen in someone's life to get to that point. Fucking hell.
 
I'd like to tell you, you were the first person to use the phrase "This Show...THIS SHOW" on Person of Interest Season 1.

Between that and FB Dive 4 Life (RIP Mike Alstott), you are a GAF Icon.

I was there since Day 1!


Alstott will live forever.
 
What happened to Cajunator? I tried to find out what got them banned but never figured it out.

Banned along with three others due to some nonsense that went down in Anime GAF last year. Can't remember the exact details but I know it involved To Love Ru (which is a mistake and is nothing but trash) and Cajun coming to the defense of another user.

On topic, this thread made me realize I do not know a whole lot of classic GAF posters despite being here since 2014. That said, the standout example for me would be Fiction.
