areth was cool. sent me a download of 'home sweet home' from beyond good & evil over pm once (this was before youtube).

i miss cvxfreak. i remember him from 2001 or 2002.
 
-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)

I still have those infamous Oli photos somewhere. Weird photoshops people made of his baby photos too, like him throwing up pikmin and Doom 3 using his baby head for the lost souls, etc. Not sure why I have any of that.

I looked Manabyte up yesterday, apparently he's still around and active on Twitter.

I saw this thread last night when randomly checking 'neogaf red scarlet' on my 2 year random check. Talked to Oreo to edit his post. I don't go here except every couple years to see what's going on and if I'm drunk (like now) I'll see what's new. I can come on anytime but I choose to ignore the forum completely 99% of the time. This is the time that the 100-sided die rolled a 1.

I stream at twitch, though not as much as I used to at twitch.tv/bulleta
I work at a school with SPED kids and enjoy that job very much. I'd rather stream/watch/play stuff than randomly talk about it all day on a forum nowadays. I'd come around but I still feel like I am blacklisted here and would have to look over my shoulder over what happened 6 years ago. I truly apprectiate what Hitokage said a couple years ago (may he rest in peace). I'm doing well and just play stuff/stream/watch streams now.

All I did was defend myself on steam chat from a dipshit calling me a liar about why he was banned. Costanza took it to the next level and I think that's what got me in trouble. I didn't give away random people's social security numbers or anything, I just copy/pasted the ban info of a guy that called me a liar as to why he was banned (he said he was going to threaten all mods/admins to get his name tag changed and I told him that was not a good idea), but the copy/paste contained WHO banned him (didn't really matter because someone was going to), and that made Evilore lose his trust in me. I told him to punish me how he saw fit but did not like the cold shoulder I got afterward. I'd rather not post walking on eggshells. It was my fault for not telling the guy (who was Kagari's friend and told her and I called her a tattletale on irc) to just fuck off and I 'manned up' and said I fucked up. I didn't like the end result and felt like I had to watch my back so I left. Like I said, the most ironic thing is that I told the guy that it wasn't a good idea to do what he did, and he later on decided to get me in trouble after trying to help him.

Anyway, that was 6 years ago but I think what I did was not as bad as has it has been said (I simply pasted the ban info of a person to Costanza TO the person that was banned) since he called me a liar as to why I he was banned, (but Costanza, unbeknownst to me, took it to the next level) and I don't like how I have been villafied. People have done far worse and overlooked.

Come blab with me on twitch if you want, but I totally ignore this site now until every 2-3 years when I get curious. I love most of you! But I'd really just rather actually play games than talk about them all day now.

Really love reading this thread about the various people who have been on this forum over the years.

Add me in to the group who certainly finds it a shame what happened to a particular member though because of some prick. She certainly was nice.
 
I always liked Smokydave and MamaRobotnik.
I don't feel like their are any gaf personalities anymore, I still enjoy all threads by HUELEN10 though.
 
The old kings are dead and soon wont even be remembered. GAF is now nothing but robots churning out post and thread algorithms into am empty virtual void with noone to listen.
 
Cuphead is a classic for me only because of his ever changing avatar. Couldn't tell you anything else about the chap.
 
This page turned into a former mod showcase.
To become classic, you must lose something.

Those that had power lost power. Those that did not got banned. Banned men and women have no voice.

Nothing beside remains. Round the decay of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare the lone and level sands stretch far away.
 
Sad that more than a few female posters have left because of off site harassment. :(

Not so offsite from what I heard from girls I know who posted here. They had accounts they let go off due to creepy PM's. It's what usually happens when a forum is built on a nerd community.

Yooo! Too bad you're basically left now! You're basically one of the nicest ones in GAF, to be sure.

Speaking of the nicest...

Are we not allowed to talk about what happened to Fiction? Because Google apparently has the wrong answer and no one has answered it here. It sounds like something pretty dark, but my curiosity has been piqued.

Opiate was really fun to read. Shame he got demodded. Don't really know what happened there either.

HolyBaikal was always... entertaining. Though every thread she entered would derail into a discussion of why exactly she wanted to be an anime girl or whatever.


IIRC Besada once clarified to me that Fiction left more because of something that happened outside GAF.

Yeah, too bad she left :/
 
I keep forgetting cvx stopped posting on GAF because I see him so often in real life.

i hope he's doing well. we used to post on gamefaqs and were somewhat chummy. when we found out about proto-sales age, we both made the move in 2002. a link to the past came over around that time as well.
 
So few mentions of Segata Sanshiro and Dragona Akehi.

I remember I was in the thread where Segata basically went "fuck this shit, I'm out". He left not because of a ban or because he was being harassed, but just because he had seen one shitty post too many. As far as Gaffer disappearances go, this has to be a rare thing.

Dragona just kinda left out of disinterest it seems, but she's still GAF's resident linguist in my heart <3. Great Valkyrie Profile avatar too.

[EDIT] Found Segata's last post:

Segata Sanshiro said:
Why on Earth would I remember a specific instance from a game I played through in one afternoon and didn't care much for?

And you know, I'm not just going to pussy out of the conversation. I'm going to pussy out of the boards. The lack of numbers has made the sales talk terrible, the biz talk is so choked with virals and apologist fanboys that it's completely terrible, and the gaming talk has always been terrible. That pretty much leaves trolling, and if that's all my contribution is going to be, I'm better off leaving.

People who don't suck know where to find me. Adios, GAF.

Damn, the dude spit hot fire until the end...

She was the only female mod for a bit if I remember. Her ban sprees were hilarious.
