I didn’t even have an sa account at the time and I don’t recall how it came to be. Someone in the slashdot folk I hung out with must have been the reason.

I Said No posted:I always thought banning MSpaint threads was a mistake myself. We just never really got any cool content/adventure threads after that was put in, stuff like Dropsy or Microbe or Red/Yellow/Blue. I'm still not sure if the ban was ever technically lifted. since this never got completely addressed MSpaint threads aren't banned but adventure threads were softbanned from GBS to TG unless they were significantly non rpg like.

Probably doesn't fit the intent of the list enough to include, but, the saga of a poster who made a celebrated thread about his work with Peter Madsen's Copenhagen Suborbitals team and how his experiences became sadly very relevant to the international news story of one Kim Wall's disappearance

" (following that whole thing) and half "we can't run CYOA here anymore without  and verbal diarrhea killing the thread" and then once they got shipped to TG (which overall sucked for the smaller ones because it killed views of course) there were a couple heavy-fingered mods or something that were like "Welp, you have your own place now don't post here."

There’s a thread in C‐SPAM that has had that title since December of 2017. It’s also recently become the subtitle of the Middle East thread.

I don't know who put in all the work to compile that, but bless them. There was also In Golden Waters, which was the same thing for the libertarian seasteading nonsense, but it wasn't as good, possibly because the premise they were mocking wasn't as absurd on its face.

I recall reading a front page article written by elpintogrande where he played an RTS of some kind for the first time. It may have been StarCraft. I don't remember which one it was. His story was pretty funny because he got matched up against someone who was probably 12 years old because they kept trash talking in the chat and that was one of the things they said.
