Now almost all you can find here is game or computers related.

Yeah, it's because Main does not permit non-Steam games and the ones here are all Origin exclusives, GFWL stuff and other game threads for just miscellaneous games.

I've been a longtime proponent of creating more game categories, e.g. for Origin and gaming stuff that fits no other category, in order to keep this section clean.

Agree completely. Off topic looks like a Main forum v2. Years ago, we had more people who were involved with the community in addition to the Steam stuff, but 99% of them are only interested in the games now.

There were many interesting discussions in this section (this is one that springs to mind, when I was still a lurker here), and even the old spam thread. I regret not having participated more.

Maybe people know that they most protect their privacy online and not spread personal informations.

Well, you can share things like this without having to reveal anything about yourself. There's nothing in that thread that would let you identify Gamba, except the market's location, and maybe the datestamp.

Also, the comments are the funny, slightly politically incorrect (so to speak) kind I really enjoyed reading in an off topic thread here.

Here's the best way to do it:

Get a part time job or find something you can buy through an overseas friend then re-sell in your own country for a higher price. Get the money. Buy your girlfriend a happy meal, then take the meal to Walmart and sit outside near the entrance enjoying it.
When some little black bastard gets caught trying to nick something, you can both laugh your asses off and point at him, saying "See! Being white really IS more fun!".

Great names of RIN OT. Even I was a newfag back then. Even though I was one of the Main forum wiseguys, I admit I was a newfag in OT.

Back then we had geeks like me to keep the Main forum alive, and cool guys like those .Rar mentioned to keep the OT forum alive.

Today the OT is plagued by some newfags looking for some games, making it more uninteresting with each post.

Here is one for oldfags of RIN!

I'm honored ::) But I'm missing many other ones also worth remembering. Some were lost in a crash we had around late '07.

Don't worry, I've also made my fair share of stupid posts back then. ::D

Wow, I had only heard of that, but it was already deleted then. I hadn't read this before. Any idea who wrote it?

Just to have this noted though, it's not entirely accurate. For example ArucarD and MrD are missing, and RIN has never received legal threats to my knowledge.

I don't remember. We did have a thread in the off topic to talk about the article and discuss changes. I remember someone trolled it by adding PacSteam spam and pro-Pacman statements, and then you said "we must do something about our yellow-headed friend first" :lol:

Anyway, I can't find that anywhere now. shmelle also asked me to send him a copy of the article's source via PM, and I can't find that message either, so it was likely lost in that crash we had on late 2007. The MHT file I took the screenshot from is dated ‎October 28th of that same year.
