SGTAR15's posable figure shows were epic.

I was sad that SteyrAUG got banned, he and his white tile floor.

Who was the guy that slapped together a new AR every week or so for a while and posed them on a shitty striped blue couch?

MarkM.  I still say "these things happen" to this day.  Didn't he start 87?

MarkM is the only banned member that I actually miss.

I miss RBAD and TBK1, Rich and Mike were good people.
The AZ crew and our get together shoots were great times, NSFJojo and the CAV crew attended.
The German news crew shoot in Casa Grande was awesome. . There used to be a YouTube video of the German news story with lots of us in it.

We should have a bracketed tournament of all the infamous banned members from over the years. Let the current membership vote one round at a time and the final winner gets to come back. Sort of like “Survivor” but in reverse.

A "Jesus or Barabbas" type pardon, right before Christmas?

How fitting.

It would be more of a tournament format with maybe 32 names, seeeded 1-8. #1 seed MarkM vs #8 seed GSeriesFal, #2 seed Sylvan vs #7 seed Dave_A and so forth.

Yet it would quickly devolve into a "Jesus or Barabbas" type scenario.

How many would vote for the member who contributes the most, versus those who would vote for the member that trolls the most?

Another member (2003 joint date) was my best friend and roommate at the time.  JosephR/SuicideHZ.  He posted a lot in tech and on the other site.  He had his demons and after an ugly divorce took his own life back in 2011.  He's the one that got me to join up here.  He was pretty "in the know" when Larue paid for that one member's court/attorney fees when the member was getting sued by a certain suppressor company.

Anyone remember a guy named QuietShootwr or something like that? He was a pretty prolific poster who was also banned I believe.



I believe his wife was a member as well.

Banned for a kill ‘em all post after he or his wife was in a car accident involving another driver of middle eastern descent.

One of two warnings I believe I have on my account are because of this.

I posted a picture hotlinked elsewhere before I learned the dangers of doing so. Went to work for the day and when I checked on the thread that night holy hell had broken loose, my posted was edited by a mod, there were 870 "WHAT THE FUCK BRO" posts and a warning waiting for me in my inbox. That's when I learned that hotlinking pics was a dangerous mistress.

It's funny now but I about shit then.

The other warning was someone posted a incomprehensible, classic frontier gibberish world salad opening post to a thread. The first few replies were sorta along the lines of "what are you talking about bro". I responded with a picture along the lines of "I don't give a shit" or something. Turns out, the OP was a poorly written but topical commentary on the wellbeing of the spouse of a member who had recently passed. I wasn't aware of the member, his passing or what the fuck the OP was talking about but I felt like a total ass about it.

I'm more careful with picture replies now.....

The Ammo Oracle, along with Molon's accuracy threads and the RIBZ instructions, were very influential for me.

I think a great many of us started in Tech before finally venturing into GD, which is why I'm always innately suspicious of new accounts that are obvious retreads.

I enjoyed the fighting, particularly with Garandman and Zaphod.  

Epic threads too.

On the good end there were Ryan's Steakhouse and the 'back rub' threads.The back rub thread is much lesser known.  Some poster started  a thread where somewhere in the body he said something like: "We were hanging around giving each other back rubs like  guys typically do".   It exploded from there.

On the bad side,, there was Lordtraders thread of: "A plane just flew into the World Trade Center" IMO, that's when arfcom became a live news outlet for many.
