Historic Neogaf moments #1

Perhaps my favorite moment of neogaf was the christmas backfire thread, in which the user baconbitz posted a thread about christmas wallpapers and included a *NO 56K* note on the thread. Somebody found that his photobucket was open and there was a shyamalandingdong twist at the end

What are/is your favorite moment?

I remember the thread with all the free cam strippers and one of them fell asleep. Umm, I don't know.

My favorite thread was when Marwan [the richest douche ever] got banned for making a thread asking how he could get ROMS onto his ds flashcart. lol. Marwan, lol.

Too bad all the photos in that thread are dead though. It isn't very funny/interesting without them.

I've been around since 2001, and the one that stands out for me is the Rock Band thread getting nuked because Evilore thought the posters were conspiring against him, and because the post count was getting high. (unmanageable in the opinion of some)
It was pretty much the catalyst for huge threads being moved to Community, and also spawned a 300,000-post private discussion outside of GAF.

JBaird holds up reading the thread today. All the twists come in chronological order as the scepticism starts appearing around "sister found dead/raped".

The Possum thread truly was incredible. It seemed like the classic 'post asking for help and stop following up thread', but we got pictures on and on and a look at a real computer running Windows ME...

So awesome.

Yeah, gotta go with the Hannah thread. Considering majority of GAF has probably squeezed one to it at one time or another.

The most amazing thing is that the possum thread and JBaird were within a month of each other.

Two of the best, possibly the two best period, GAF threads posted in such close proximity.

Truly incredible.

Historic in retrospect, I miss the days where I could make threads... like this, or this.

But man the NPD gif days were pretty fun, and speaking of the gaming side, APOCALYPS3 was a hilarious ride to get through. :lol

What was the one with the dude saying he couldn't use his laptop in bed, because the glow from the screen would wake up his sister, and everyone was like....wait, sister? Wut?

Beyblades & JBaird are easily my favourites though.
