Wait a sec... What was the name of the site? Was it something like ff legends or something? I remember that place if it's the same one. My then gf was all over it, went and actually met one of dudes who ran it, too.

May 2016- a guy joined the forums to see about Goonswarm and EVE. He came from Reddit. He was unprepared for our old-timey ideas like "rules", or "lurking", or "not going on insane angry misogynistic rants". He made a total of 21 posts, his downfall presented in order here: HAY WHERES THE EVE SECRETS AT http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3773671&pagenumber=32&perpage=40#post459402048 Literally his 4th post ever, he decides to check out ask/tell http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3774358 PLEASE DELETE MY ACCOUNT http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3774410

Does anyone have links to that terrible WoW webseries that some teenager was trying to do many years back? All I remember was he would post in the MMO forum and sign all of his posts and for a while people in the MMO forum would sign their posts with his characters name/class/level tag as a joke.

Wasn't there a kid with some pretentious sounding name like Grothmoore who had some bizzare attempt to join Goonswarm and had a meltdown when he figured out he'd been had? And that DnD addict I think was in a grognards thread. Might have been a repost off another forum. The gist was the guy was addicted to constantly rolling stats for characters till his long suffering girlfriend broke up as it was clear that it was impossible to support him.

Prencleeve Grothsmore. He was obsessed with getting into Goonswarm, and he had a thread in E/N about how he was so much smarter than the other kids in Elementary and they didn't even read Marx' Das Kapital.
