I've just been thinking of all the idiots on the forum over the years, and I can't actually remember many of them at all! So, perhaps someone could remind me.




OH, I've just remembered that really annoying guy's name: Fwd.Adm! (I always used to pronounce it "Forward admin" even though I knew that was wrong). Anyone remember him? He's the guy who posted all the crap about his mother dying, him owning a boomerang and avatar-making company. Ironically IIRC his avatar is stuck on "Invincible" :p

I can't find his profile however... perhaps I have got his name wrong.

EDIT: Aha - http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=18768


There was another annoying guy who got banned and kept making a load of alternative accounts that were obviously still him... I cannot for the life of me remember his name. IIRC he had a blob as an avatar that was his own "art"...

I always read it as "Forward Adam". What's it meant to be?

Not necessarily complete stupid; just some people I remember doing really stupid things.
Some Shortlived spammer (http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=16022)
Because of that furry thread. (http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=2896)
Didn't he go crazy for a bit? (http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=6014) Or was he the leak? Dammit I can't remember.
I understand he was stupid, then improved and suddenly suffered an extreme relapse. (http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=9748)
Although I cannot remember what this guy did. (http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=19080)
I am so glad the post history only goes back so far... (http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=15262)

There's a lot I cannot remember the names of and nature is particularly bountiful where stupidity is concerned.

Oh, I remember Lawd - if my memory is to be trusted, he was OK apart from the furry-ness ;p

Don't really remember the rest. Though I don't remember UnknownX going crazy. I have vague memories of Reder8, and I've looked up Iguana's batch of craziness.

I've just remembered the name of the guy who I was thinking of earlier - T.Magdai or something along those lines. Now to find him...



EDIT: Ah, close: http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=24806

Look at the absolutely amazing art that is his avatar. LOOK AT IT.



SargeMcCluck: I believe it was Forward Admiral or something, a rank from a video game he liked.

More like he was stupid, then improved then caught wind of OD and decided to become a huge troll. :p He's back now (http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=111649), seems calmer.

These (http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=17317) little (http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=20311) rascals (http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=19871) also pulled something back in the day though I can't remember what.

I remember fhqwgads got banned for posting something naked in some troll/spam thread or another. Iguana puppeted UnknownX into grabbing screenshots of some of the OD fanfare from that, including myself saying "I won't miss fhqwgads." Not to say I really regret saying it. I don't really care who knows that I don't miss fhqwgads.

Lawd was around for a good while, really. Was "Worm-Man" or some such in the early days, but he got a rare name change because his name was too similar to Worm Mad. He was always weird even before he caught acute furry. He tried to send me some 30-megabyte smut .zip archive via msn messenger once.

e: Yeah, UKX was never that bad, really, but he went and allied himself with newly awakened Troll Iguana and started leaking all kinds of crap like mentioned above, so he discretely got the axe. Also he used Pedobear as his avatar in msn messenger, which means I biologically must hate him.

edit: what the gosh? why did it make a new post instead of editing? ... I must have hit the wrong dang ol' button. That's embarassing.

I thought they were with Iguana in some massive troll thing. Seem to recall pornography was involved.
Not sure if Iguana was triggered by the OD thing; he wasn't in the 'marshmallow brigade'.

I'm not sure if it's what triggered him but he made a lot of subtle jabs once he caught on, he was more interested in having fun than joining in silly crusades, eventually culminating in that whole "OD leak/pokemon porn" spam fest with friends. I think that was the last leak we had around here and because of it every regular probably subconsciously knows about OD now, they just don't really care. :p

To be fair the forum sure seems to bring out the weird in people, I still have a lot of these fine folk on MSN and they're a lot saner there. I think the OD thing just set off a lot of people's natural "potential for mischief" urges.
On the other hand there were people like Serban who asked me to feed him W3D screenshots like it was some drug addiction, and had random mic testing sessions. Ah internet, never change.

I think the fact you invited half of them to OD more or less plugged it :D. Apart from Splinter none of the others post anymore.

'marshmallow brigade'
This is what I made in response back then. :D

Also, speaking of idiots:

I think S2K made this one, after Shadowmoon had long streak of idiocy:
http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/6391/tsafcbee3.th.png (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/299/tsafcbee3.png/)

I made these two, initially after I was astounded that some silly newbie had read a manual prior to posting.
Later I edited it for the opposite use.

And let's not forget the franpa alerts.
AFAIR, someone at a Nintendo forum initially made them because franpa was a complete idiot there. Even the original files were called "franpa alert".
It soon was adopted here.

This is going back a long time... remember Psydome and the frequent wars he'd have with me and the admins (APJ in those days) over my moderating :p

Aah, AJP. Good times.

(:D)


Also, what about Cheech and hats? Also MrLee and .. anything!

omg what was that web site of T17 haters back in the day?? It eventually closed down... Grr can't remember

CL2K? It was so much more than just the L17 brigade's HQ, though. So. Many. Fond. Memories! :eek:

No I don't think that's it... They had a domain, it was something like ___worms.com or worm___.com or maybe it was really that long ago

Aah, CL2K. The memories.

Also, do you mean Wormsfiles?

No I don't think that's it... They had a domain, it was something like ___worms.com or worm___.com or maybe it was really that long ago
I think you're talking about yahui, basti@n, Shadowmoon and HaK, who made their own alternative "Team17 Offtopic forum", because they felt oppressed on here.
Fun thing is, that they turned out to be the more fascistic moderators there than the usermods here ever were. :rolleyes:

They racked up post counts in the thousands within several months there, which even overshadows Akuryou's post counts, accumulated over years.

Also, some OD people created their own secret and shared accounts to troll them. :D

This seems to be kind of a follow up forum with those guys again:
http://z15.invisionfree.com/HaK_Gaming_Forum/index.php?act=idx

Hak definitely has to be the biggest idiot of them all.

As childish and fish in a barrel easy as it was, I had a lot of fun on their forum. Creating a 'Squirminatuh' account after Sqirminator started posting that my 'Huntakilluh' account wasn't the real deal was probably the highlight.

I remember that. Wasn't your avatar humongous because they didn't set a sensible size limit for them? That was pretty hilarious.

Aah, CL2K. The memories.

Also, do you mean Wormsfiles?

Maybe...? Hmm doesn't really ring a bell...

And no, I don't mean the HaK thing, this was like 2004 and earlier... In the phase before W3D was released. They were always ranting about how T17 was lame and WA sucked, yadda yadda...

Eventually they let their domain expire, the site went down, and there was much rejoicing.

I cannot believe how long it took those people to figure out how to fib about their age :eek:

Lawd was always weird even before he caught acute furry. He tried to send me some 30-megabyte smut .zip archive via msn messenger once.
oh hey, the same thing happened to me. i think it was anime porn of some variety; had no desire to accept the attachment

holy ****, ****ing serban. now that guy was a piece of work

oh hey, the same thing happened to me. i think it was anime porn of some variety; had no desire to accept the attachmentYeah, that's probably a safe bet. I had to refuse it several times in a row and ask him what it was about 10 times before he came clean about that much.

Go go creationist! (http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=24699)

Remember that Akuryou? He was a right idiot.

no kidding what a colossal douche, good thing we never let him in here

Go go creationist! (http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=24699)

Vaaaaguely remember something about those threads. What actually happened?

He posted some crap which K^2 and later Andrew(?) rolled over it. I think.

I recall him trying to convince us the world was flat?

AFAIK he just tried to convince us that the world is only around 4k years old. Unless I missed the "world is flat" part.

I think he was throwing around the "God is only testing your faith with..." killer argument a lot too.

Do fundamental Christians even believe the world is flat? Or was he just an enormous cretin?

Oh god, worse than I remembered.

Not that I know of, although it is possible he was both a Creationist and a member of the Flat Earth Society.

So yeah, he was just an enormous cretin.
