It’s in the past! Let It Go!

What memories do you have of old GRcade moments that just don’t happen anymore. You can use moments but this could be forum members that are memorable that arn’t here anymore or just things that just don’t work these days.

For me it has to be forum takeovers where we would sign up to other forums and just take them over for lol’s, the chat function at the top of GRcade used to watch programs together and we also used to have a series night where we would watch episodes together and chat whilst it was live.

Good times :cry:

MSN + The Midnight Thread

Even if we somehow got the entire user base into a discord room for the night the utterly annoying features of MSN wouldn’t make it the same.

Drunk MSN Messenger group chats were the bomb.

Mass wank

Maybe it's the time difference or getting older or the shift to streaming services but I miss when most people would be acquiring the latest episode of a new series and we'd generally speaking all be watching it at roughly the same time and would comment and joke about it. The old The Office, HIMYM and Glee threads spring to mind. I think only Doctor Who is watched in a similar way now and I lost interest in that a while back.

I miss the Counterstrike: Source games we used to play most nights. Was great to jump on mumble and be guaranteed at least a handful of people would be on to get a game.

That's one of the reasons I started my Star Trek rewatch thread. So we'd have set episodes for the week and we could chat gooseberry fool about them. It's been going well so far. Myself, Moggy and Jenuall have been working through the Original and Animated series for a few months now and we're about to move onto the movies and Next Gen in February.

I miss this too. Loads of great gaming moments.

Who was it who built that massive tree house in spawn on Minecraft and manage to burn it, along with every other tree in the area, down? :lol:

You loved it, you slag.

For me it's the TV show chatter. Lost was the obvious king for this, each episode generated so many thoughts and theories.

How did that classic quote chain used to go – was something like:

strawberry float off

What a wanker

The good old days!

You're a dick.

Shut up.

You're a dick.

What the strawberry float is your problem?

What a wanker

That's the one :lol:

I guess it fits into that 1% of the time where the 'new' quote chain function is worse :cry:

No, the Jamaican lady image was GOOD ONE FUCKFACE in red. THATCH NICHE was KingKam's catchphrase, in blue, unaccompanied by images.
