Sounds like a lot of you ONMers have done lots of name changing. Fortunately this person was "always cocacola" ;)

I do not know why I gave myself that name if I'm being honest, but I did think when I signed up I can't let the legacy die! I mean, I guess I could have 'evolved' into something else ;)

No means of erasure i'm afraid. ;)

But yes, we are one and the same. :toot:

Hi Richard! Hope you're well. I do recognise you from years back, so its good to see some familiar faces (or avatars :shifty: ) from before.

Also, what're the rules for creating threads here? When are new members allowed to make threads just out of curiosity? (I promise no evolution threads).

Hi cocacola, I have removed you from the newly registered users group so you can post threads now.

He promised not to, but I’m fascinated by what his evolution threads are about.

Cocacola, I have zero power but I’ll ban you unless your first thread is about evolution. :x

The young, naive me died a long time ago I'm afraid. Although, I could create one discussing the fake moon landing :slol:

Of course it was a joke. Everyone knows there’s no such thing as a “moon” :roll:

Weren't you the guy that was brought up in the very Christian household and basically didn't believe in anything to do with science?

It's good to be back. Been years since I have been on any forums! Not sure if you were around, but I'd like to make a public apology for my series of evolution threads back on ONM. :lol:

Don't apologise. Those threads were absolute gold and hilarious to read as a spectator haha

Well, I'm certainly glad that you enjoyed them! Hopefully, people can see me as some form of ONM 'legend' rather than an ONM idiot :lol:

May I ask, what was your ONM username back in the day as I may remember you. For some reason, names stick with me. Quick question, does anyone remember a 'supershyguy'. I recall many times people accusing me of being him, and I can promise all these years later that was not me!

You can find him in the Nintendo Switch chat thread, answering a whole host of detailed questions with even more detailed answers.

Original username was Nintendo Ninja/NN/Nun. Think my old sigtar was Cowboy Bebop themed around the time you joined.

I wouldn't worry about it, everyone has dumb threads in their backlog from when they first started using forums. Quite glad old ONM got deleted so I could forget most of mine.

My first post on Gamesradar in 2003 was a post about a dream I had about a 3D advance wars on GameCube. To be fair I wasn't far off as it was released in 2005.

I was 13 or 14 years old. strawberry floating hell.

I'm 31 now by the way, in case you can't count. I know I had to double check.

Edit: Actually I'm only 30 :fp:

Is there a way to check the old GR? Like some kind of archive? I would like to know when my first post on it was.

Some parts of it may be hosted on the way back machine but not much.

I think Garth archived some of it too.

Can't say I knew you personally CC but I remember the username

Also for the record all of ONM is lost. ONM was archived on SONM. SONM's homepage which stayed up after closure no longer links to the SONM forums.
