What ever happened to the Eastern Europe goon who was slumlord of some apartments he inherited? He burned chairs on his stove while getting hosed up and got sick from smoking moldy tobacco he tried to save in his freezer. I remember he never collected rents because the tenants had sad stories of their own, so he appeared to live off recycling glass beer bottles.

Last thing I remember was something about how he got involved with his uncle for business and people were concerned the uncle would facilitate his death to inherit his poo poo.

Yeah I remember that thread, OP was A SWEATY FATBEARD and he later went on to reveal that he was on a lot of meds for, I think, bipolar disorder if I'm not mistaken. E: oh yeah and a few street drugs to balance things out as well.

I'm remembering bits and pieces...just remembered him telling a story of the father who was behind on his rent again and the man said that he promised to get the money together soon, and if he was late, OP could gently caress his wife. Just a bunch of weird stories of desperate Eastern European poverty like that coupled with the OP's :psyduck:-inducing personal problems as well.

For all the bizarreness of the stories, OP came off as likable...hope things are going well for A SWEATY FATBEARD these days. :unsmith: And for anyone wondering, he posted pics in that thread and he is not, in fact, a sweaty fatbeard.

Not specificslly forums but i remember being in high school, like 9th or 10th grade, and finding something awful. There was some article about babes of gaming and it was just a bunch of lesbian porn pictures with "reviews" of the games in an article, with the joke being that the babes were playing the games while loving each other. I think that was the joke i kinda forget, im sure it was just an excuse to post porn.

The reason it sticks out to me is because i was browsing at school and they had blocks on everything around 1999, but not something awful, and i was basicslly unintentionally looking at porn while innocently looking for the next Jeff K article. I havent been able to find it again, but 15 year old me thought that was the coolest poo poo.

Ah, this reminds me. They had mock hentai game reviews on the front page. For more than a few of them, the articles showed or had linked to screen caps of anime children getting tentacled/raped on the front page, and never thought to take down or not host at all actual anime child porn. I think by now they screencaps were removed, but they had been up there for more than a few years. Mainly they were removed because someone in QCS pointed it out.

FYAD had their own admin, DocEvil, who could occasionally do cool admin things like changing the background to a different obnoxious image or tell people how many times they were reported for shitposting in Safe Zone Hugbox threads. But he never really did those two things and instead spent his time posting funny forced memes like "orb dad" and hanging out on Twitter where he could tailor his razor-sharp wit in 140 characters or less with a bunch of daycrew wallflowers and lurkers. In the summer of 2011 he tweeted "eat the eggs" to the lead singer from Smashmouth, a bold move that would spell his doom in FYAD.
Timeline of the Egg Incident

Early June 2011: DocEvil posts some dumb unfunny poo poo on Twitter that culminates in this heartfelt plea for Smashmouth to eat eggs. GBS, being a vile den of cancer, eagerly piles onto the bandwagon.

Late July 2011: After about a month of GBS making GBS threads up Twitter, Facebook, and even calling him at his home (lol), Steve Harwell finally agrees to eat eggs, as long as people donate $10,000 to charity, because as everybody knows, it's irresponsible and highly bigoted to do random silly things without raising money for a worthy cause. GBS, being mostly upper-middle-class white males whose parents pay for their college, happily agrees.

August 2011: After GBS raises $10,000, Steve Harwell gets scared and tries to weasel out of the deal. Finally he ends up asking people to raise even more money ($15,000 extra, lol) so celebrity chef Guy Fieri can come and cook the eggs! Nobody raises the extra money and Fieri still ends up cooking the eggs, possibly because he's a useless failure desperate for fifteen minutes in the spotlight.

Early October 2011: On an overcast, gloomy gray day, about 100 people mill around in front of a trendy gay restaurant. Guy Fieri makes omelets with extra tabasco sauce and disgusting poo poo which nobody can eat. In a masterstroke, Steve Harwell calls DocEvil to come up on stage. Rather than displaying even the slightest bit of personal charisma and/or charm, DocEvil lurches around awkwardly during the entire event, compulsively brushing his hair out of his face like that one goth kid from South Park and nervously clutching his pink iPhone with a death grip, his knees no doubt on the brink of shaking. DocEvil got completely owned by Steve Harwell, a fat washed up lovely rocker, and Guy Fieri, a fat washed up lovely chef, and also the San Jose Shark. Yes, that's right, because he couldn't help but look terrified and picked-upon rather than relaxed, the ex-admin of FYAD got publically made fun of and basically owned by a glorified furry, while the middle-aged washout ex-celebrities end up coming off as generally okay and self-depricating. Eventually some fat dude in the audience eats most of the eggs.

Mid October 2011: FYAD gets wind of the press coverage, featuring photos of their beloved fat admin overloard, and video of what an awkward plump apple-shaped baby-face aspergic trainwreck he is. They basically own the hell out of him and, true to his chickenshit character, DocEvil doesn't even bother showing up in FYAD anymore, instead retreating to the Front-Page Discussion forum for several months before finally gingerly stepping back into YOSPOS, his new "favorite" forum.

December 2011: DocEvil, feeling that perhaps the embarrassment has blown over, gingerly dips his toes into the shark-infested waters of FYAD. He is made fun of and is run out after like three posts. He retreats to YOSPOS, occasionally visiting ED to whine about FYAD.

The guy who complained in E/N about his kids being taken away. He then revealed his 5 year old was wandering the town by herself and posted pictures of his trailer that looked like a trash heap and had cat poo poo just sitting on the floor. When called on it he complained about not having money and someone found a thread from a couple months earlier where he bought a $2000 gaming PC.

Looks like the pictures are gone.

He tried to join the old Mechwarrior group a while after that poo poo happened. I rejected him and wrote something like "spend this time with your daughter instead". He still posts sometimes.

Gord was a dude who had a video game store and put up a website where he wrote about how he laid down brutal ownage and sick burns on complete noobs and lamers who had somehow wandered into his glorious Canadian gaming paradise. It all turned out to be garden variety stdh.txt just as you'd expect nowadays in these jaded and cynical times but in 2001 it was pretty hilarious, so some goons decided to touch the poo poo and gave Gord a forums account.

And wouldn't you know it, Gord turned out to be an insufferable rear end in a top hat who managed to annoy everybody who came into contact with his posts. This angered FYAD, who sent out their champion Corbalt to offer Gord a Starcraft loser-leaves-town permaban challenge with a hefty handicap: If Corbalt won ten times in a row, Gord would be permabanned. All Gord had to do was win once and Corbalt would eat the ban. Corbalt won all ten. Gord claimed only nine games had been played, then posted a lengthy Dear Richard diatribe before the hammer fell.

Gord would later run his video game store into the ground and move to South Korea to follow his dream of teaching English to future K-pop stars.
