Imagine if you got banned 5-10 years ago, and rather than just getting on with your life or paying 10 bucks to rereg, you decided to go to an off-site where you doxxed mods and were super racist

I wonder how many times people have gotten super-upset over someone doing something relatively mundane and tried to doxx them, only to find there was nothing they could ruin that person's life with.

I don't remember the quote exactly, but the ac/dc hadouken was a reply someone made about it. Something like 'the mod that killed their bird with an ac/dc hadkouen' or something similar.

Also, nothing will ever top the child-murdering zipline that cost like 10 thousand dollars to build and would, if used, instantly obliterate any child.

Do a bunch of virgins or near virgins still get together for goon meets? Those were fun.

We've had some decent goon meets in Chicago, and the previously mentioned "Michael Scott" was a part of that. He was notorious in the Chicago thread for asking for dating advice and doing the typical goon-in-a-well ignoring all reasonable advice. He came to a couple goon meets and was hoping for people to be his wingman which didn't end well.

Another great thread was when one goon noticed that his neighbor was stealing cable from him, and after several tries of making him stop he decided to build a device (don’t remember the name, but for some reason I think it had sega in it, like segakiller?). Anyway, it was supposed to send an electric spike through the cable and fry his tv, but it malfunctioned and he ended up burning the neighbors house. Firemen never found out the cause of the fire.

Can’t seem to remember the name/find thread.

It was, in fact, Segakiller. Here is a SAclopedia entry on it.

I lived on Long Island, and went there once with a church group. We were far enough away that most of us didn't know the stories, though we were warned that people frequently got friction burns on the Alpine Slide by flying off their sled. I still rode that like three or four times.

That has to be bullshit.
A fire origin at electrical outlets is the first thing they look for. That is unless the thing burned down to the foundation before the fire crew could arrive.

If I recall correctly, they definitely found the source of the fire and traced it to the outlet the goon used.

I think the goon may have given some final updates to the effect of "oh poo poo I left the segakiller cable out there" and then we didn't hear from that poster again? Either that or I stopped paying attention to him. Either way this is like... holy gently caress this is around 12-15 years ago :stare:

They did that to me and frankly my life is already pretty in shambles, but it was over a soccer post of all things I think?

I dunno, the guy posted a bunch of my accounts since I used the same username everywhere like an idiot and a bunch of people there just kinda went "okay?" and did nothing.
