I have made one thread and abandoned it after like three updates because my save corrupted (it was an unfinished romhack). Yay 0% completion!

I believe the fire emblem one was delphisage

No delphisage was an entirely different brand of fire emblem creep

No, he was the guy who wanted someone to LP his favorite Pokemon romhack, the one where all the Pokemon are replaced with naked women and girls and you torture and rape them there's a market area in it where you can buy women who've had their limbs amputated specifically so that they can't escape from their life of sex slavery.

webp has security vulnerabilities but most browsers have patched over those. It's only really a problem in Discord, which of course does not have the necessary security measures in place.

Ok, I'm stupid, how is this proof that that's his alt?

The proof is that fluffdaddy is an admin and alt checked it

What I'm thinking about is this: usually when somebody dies it's customary to permaban their account so nobody can hack into it and pretend to be them. So what do we do, do we ban their account based on their word that they somehow died of unexplained super-cancer or do we leave it be on the assumption they are some kind of Omega-liar and they are still alive?

Leave it unbanned so that if he ever tries to come back and pretend to be a relative or something we can all laugh about it, imo

Guy who showed up here out of nowhere in I wanna say like 2014 or 15, and posted a bunch, and I mean a BUNCH of lovely low effort VLPs of shootemup games with incredibly oddball, borderline mentally ill commentary, to the point where it was just flooding the zone with poo poo. Geop, the mod of LP at the time, got sick of his poo poo and threw down a challenge saying "post a VLP of yourself playing chess with normal, subdued commentary or you'll be banned, if you post anything else but chess, you will be banned, you have one month to do this or you will be banned."

So Gamingo just disappears after that and the whole month flies by with everyone in the sub losing their poo poo over whether or not he will post chess or if Geop just scored the coup of the decade on this random weirdo. All this time there's some weird random hype man posting these weird "What happened to Richard Gamingo?"/"I believe in Richard Gamingo" videos amping people up even further (this later turned out to be Gamingo using an alt because he apparently worked in marketing and/or finance IRL and knew how to play people). Then on the day of the deadline at nearly the last second... Gamingo returns and posts chess, earning his clemency and the right to keep posting poo poo and humiliating Geop and a fun time was had by all.

Then Gamingo just kind of, I dunno, peters out, his big moment of fame come and gone and the shine of his star, such as it is, fastly faded. As Sally said, Putty tried to reach out to him to do a guest comm spot on a video of his and he scrapped the whole thing because Gamingo was a legit gibbering nutbar. I distinctly recall him saying to me something of the effect to "As someone who does a bit in their commentary, I know when people are doing a bit, and this guy is 100% not faking his crazy."

From there, he drifts away from LP and starts haunting BFC where he starts posting absolutely unhinged investing advice that usually ended on the punchline of "drink your own piss" or something to that effect and quickly got repeatedly banned from there until he just stopped buying his account back and left SA forever.

He is now a legend and always will be.

What a guy, goddamn

I've always been on the side of fanfic in lps that already have stories being really cringe, but I simply just don't read them if I don't like the writing, instead of being even weirder about it than the lp writer is.

I had girls send me fanfic models using my in game character of them loving me which was one of the weirdest things I've ever had happen in an MMO

I guess when people say ffxiv has the friendliest community of any MMO they're using a different definition of the word friendly...

I just looked it up, and dear God why

Like how can you look at yourself in the mirror after making something that viscerally unpleasant to look at and publishing it for the whole world to see?

Since the thread's never going to happen, the game also has a happy ending I will spoil here.

The game was made by an artist and a writer who crowdfunded the whole thing in the kickstarter boom era. The artist proceeds to turn in everything to contract, down to the last letter: X sprites for Y characters, backgrounds, etc., and he gets done way ahead of the writer. Artist is also the person who had been doing the updates for people while the game is in development, so he just goes "I've turned in my work, you're just waiting on so-and-so to finish, have fun with the finished product, all!" and he gets offline for years and uses his half of the crowdfunding cash to pay his way through art school. As far as I am aware he is now just a big-boob patreon dude living happily, dunno if he has a good day job, never dug deeper.

The back half of the game has a lot of very, very bitter jokes from the writer (who sucks as a dude) about how because he didn't think ahead or get more work out of his partner or whatever, now every single NPC professor in the game is the same sprite, or there aren't enough NPCs, or...

You know what, good for the artist.

We're past the days of pokemon LPs being so overdone and boring that they got banned for a while, but do people actually want to read/watch Pokemon LPs in TYOOL 2024? Particularly romhacks and fangames.
