Talk about some of the great things/members on the old forums in the good ol' days.

I may not have been there, but you were!

How 'bout the times when the forum was in danger? When hundreds of users were deleted and the power of admins were misused.
Or a flame war? Any of those old stories? (Lol, I also feel like a grandpa telling grandkids the story.)

Why not start with "The Wars" as Engel put it. :p

I joined JUST after a flamewar (as I hear, anyways) in 2004. Who started this?

And of course the huge PM arguments between me and Manic.. then finding out we were in the same line of work in the MFG Chat Room hahaah!

I never did come around to Twitch In Stereo though, we never agreed on anything, and everyone always heard about it all over the boards. Haha, good times.

Oh it was crazy back then. I remember when i first got here, within a few months there were like 2 or 3 consecutive flame wars. Then Shugo and his gang of morons almost broke the forum. DLF supposedly hacking MFG. Lol Manic did hack MFG, remember that? Man so much stuff has happened here. Funny thing is there's only about 10 members max that were around for most of it. I wasn't here in the phpbb days but I don't think too much happened then anyways.

Damn I feel old.

Manic was the reason for leaving Invisionfree, or one of them, IMO. Not like he's (or was, haven't spoken to him in so long) a hardcore code-breaker or anything though, as kiddy scripts do work wonders, lol. Not to say it couldn't happen here, but less likely.

XD I remember that. It was a particularly fun day for me, for so many reasons. I remember saying something about the hacker being my hero on my comment page (remember them fun ol' things?) and like 5 minutes later Manic PMed and told me to get on AIM.
And that kids, is how Manic became my hero. =]
I don't really remember too much...Oh! There was the fun of Chibi Gohan's Lookout and being banned because of it. It was like the MFG Cold War.

lol ... absolutely Amero.

Remember Aoshi Shinamaru and his multiple account flame war. Man he did a fair bit of damage.

Those profile comments were legendary, so good. I wish we could have those back. And remember Blackmasta and Nyqua owning up the dbz section way back when.

Lol ... Nyqua with his 1 word posts.

Good times...

Yeah, I don't remember much either. But I do remember the hacking/flame wars. I didn't know Manic was the one who hacked it. o_@; Someone needs to take all of MFG's past and make it into a story. Like not a comedic story but a serious one.

Well this member, Chibi Mystic Gohan, made his own forums and invited a bunch of MFG members there. This was all good and okay and such until we made a topic bashing the MFG and someone mention that were were going to spam it.
Well...Duo or possibly it was Superior looked there and saw it. Of course anyone who had even agreed to it was banned for precautionary reasons. Eventually we got unbanned if we didn't actually try to spam it.
It was a fun place though.

*Is totally interigued*

Wow...cool. So here is a queston, if I were to stay for a long time...would I be considered an old member? Or is the new member title stuck with me forever?

Anyway, tell me more stories!!

I wasn't going to post in this topic, but it is about the good ol' days, so who can resist that?

I remember when, for a good six months, we had the Twitch in Stereo/Manic vs. Duo/Superior flame war going on. I don't think we'd ever stick to one place when arguing. I remember one time there being three different topics, in three different area's. Boy, if you weren't keened in on that, you were basically lost. =P

Also, Duo and I becoming about the two most successful Member-Admin's dubbing ourselfs "The Superior Duo" was another great time. Too bad all those times eventually came to an end.

I guess you would be considered an old member. Most of us weren't here at the time when Superior or Lord Sloth joined and we're are old members.
Another story. Amerowolf the one week moderator. =/
I got promoted and a few days later Gaara tricked me into giving up the position by telling me that Ace was de-admined. *Le sigh* Such a gullible kid I was. xD
