The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
I often think about the history of these forums, and how things used to be. That's not to say they've declined in quality over the years, but as with most things, you keep them going long enough and you'll find people complaining that things ain't what they used to be.
Anyway, I got to remembering some of the good times while bored at work today (a regular occurence) and yeah, it might be a bit sad, but some of the memories really did make me smile. UKchatforums.com must be my most visited website ever (still my homepage) and despite it just being a collection of poorly-designed .gif images and text-speak, sometimes it genuinely manages to make me laugh out loud (LOL).
So... in the spirit of one of my Shiznit lists, I want your top UKchatforums.com moments of all time, from throughout history - it can be favourite users, brilliant moments of realisation or just your favourite threads. I'll get us kicked off with a few memories that brightened up my day.
THE BELLDANDY SAGA - I've never had so much fun berating someone over the internet as I did with Belldandy. Probably still floating around somewhere under a newly mysterious (very probably Manga-related) username, Belldandy was NEVER WRONG. Even if he was, he wasn't. And if he really was, then he'd run away and not come out to play, until the next time he was wrong. It came close to bullying at a few points (I used to get his emails) but it was coming from both sides: Goaty, Light, Pandy, myself and others (all anti-war and common sense) versus the one man righteous army of Belldandy.
The Belldandy saga reached a hilarious conclusion, when on one of his many mysterious reappearances under another nick (HALO Fan), he was sussed by the lot of us and nevertheless proceeded to dispute it for several months, despite have all the curt mannerisms and blind flag-wankery that good old Bell had. It stopped being fun when we finally saw a picture of him on Special Observe, then realised our physical name calling was disturbingly prophetic.
There have been others, but none as more fun to bait as Belldandy.

I'm such a n00b. This thread makes me sad.
Dan2K1 was the absolute best at complaining that he didn't win GAD.#
Just been trawling through the archives. Remember when everyone was leaving?
The forums aren't what they used to be, so I'm leaving.
Remember Cheatguru? Did he become the legendary DonutMonster aka Dognuts?

I remember the Special Reserve game for some reason. I dont remember much else over the 5 or so years i've been on here, how rare...

A little extract:
Suddenly (yeah, that again - sorrah!) there was a strange rumbling in the magnificent ass cavity.
“Oh no!” Nash squealed, “The gerrid is peaking! This could get messy.”
AJ thunk for a bit.
“This is perfect way to escape,” he said, “We wait for the climax, and get blown out in the process.”
Nash looked unimpressed.
“Why don’t you just go back out his ass? The hole’s right over there, flapping.”
“Shhhh!” AJ hissed, “We have to go my way - we’ll meet wimmel along the way, and then more plot stuff will happen.”
“Really!” Nash said, excited (visually so) “We see the wimmel? Really - wimmel!?”
“Uh-huh - come on! Oh, Shanks - you too. You can tell us all about Tony when we get out.”
**
As the group moved further inside gerrid, the sound (that sound I mentioned before - the tap-tapping of keyboard keys) intensified. And, halfway to the penile section, they met wimmel, sat down with a laptop on his ... lap.
“Amsterdam ... “ He mumbled. Yes, mumbled. “Dissertation .... Englich ... backpacks .... survey .... thankyou .... wimmel.”
That’s about it, really.
But - look - it’s wimmel. Wimmel for God’s sake, WIMMEL
Oh, wait. I thought of something. Something good.
AJ held out his rock (yes, I forgot about that too).
“Hey wimmel, here you are.” He handed to the wimmel.
“Backpack?” wimmel asked.
“No - rock”
“Dissertation?”
“Nono - rock”
“Rock?”
“Yes, very good,” AJ said.
The wimmel looked immensely pleased, and started typing again, mumbling as he wrote.
“Amsterdam .... dissertation .... rocks .... survey ..... Englich rocks .... thankyou ... wimmel”
**
Gerrid exploded with practised ferocity, sending jets of the stuff across the room and onto the ceiling - and through the ceiling.
He woke at the same time - the force of ten thousands jisms throwing him backwards across the room.
“AJ, hi.” He wiggled a bit, “What? No sleeping secks? I’m disappointed in you.”
“Sorry, honey - but look! It’s Shanks!”
gerrid looked a little embarrassed. “Oh yeah ... him.”

Wow loads of that stuff seems recent to me.

wimmel has to be there. It was his repeat postings that really did it, although the original "do my backpack survey" post on it's own was pretty great.

Ah, Shaneo... the most irritating person I've ever met on the internet. Complete liar to boot, and terrible at it. He's up there with DW, El Robin and Dan2K1 (real old school, him) as people I think I actually physically hated, despite never having met them.
Did I ever tell anyone about my SR stalker? Jesus Christ, he was terrifying.

I've still got all my stories saved on my computer. Good times.
Let's see ... last episode involved AJ's adventure inside of gerrid's rectal passages, wherein he discovered the missing Armitage Shanks, Nash taking tours of the amazing colon and ... oh my god ... wimmel
wimmel for teh win.

I used to like some of HalloHowArtThous' little stories and topics in general about things like the Xbox.
And some of the threads where DW would start spouting his opinion everywhere were quite hilarious to watch.
I remember everyone getting all upset because Grix won a GAD for "Drunken Ramblings" ("But, that's not fair ... it's not even good" :'D)
