The saga of wojtek.

He was a goon that posted in Pet Island one day about being unable to care for his dogs any longer. He had like three of them and wanted to get rid of them after only a year or so. His excuse? He's literally so busy that he doesn't have time to feed or walk them. He posts pics asking for advice on what to do with them.

Within five posts someone finds out that he plays World of War craft like 23 hours a day. Someone else figured out that he actually had his laptop plugged into a wall outlet to play at the hospital while his wife gave birth.

This was 8 years ago. His last activity shows he was playing three hours ago as of this post: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/blackrock/Wojtek/simple

that guy is one of the biggest pieces of poo poo ive ever heard about. gently caress him. i wish somebody would hack his loving wow account and sell his gay bullshit

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.

Goon City might be working as well though I'm unable to confirm since the map loads INCREDIBLY slowly.

Goonbase was easily saved since it's just a huge PNG (with sweet MSpaint arfifacts no less)

what exactly happened to axemaniac? Is there a thread or something?

I remember posting here back when he was doing the whole Duke Nukem thing and had a cult of personality based around his comics of beating women to death with his dick or whatever but I peaced out for like a year around then and he was just gone, this thread is the only mention i've seen.

he was a lovely morbidly obese deviant but what really turned the tables on him as mod was duke nukem forever sucking rear end

E: in fact, games has had a long history of hair trigger weirdos as mods. louisgod was a pretty good specimen of this

Not yet, and I'm not sure I want to, really. Sure, I've mentioned my job here and there, but I feel like an A/T thread might draw way too much attention, and then somehow I get in poo poo for it at work.

Hahah, then again, it's SA, not Reddit, so maybe no one would care. Is the A/T thread behind the paywall?

Edit: for a quick and dirty A/T, I posted a bunch in the Howard Stern Megathread. It's around March-May of 2015, if that helps.

dont do it. there was some guy in the music forum that got into some kind of professional heat for posting some stuff about billy corgan
