Like the title says, let's take a blast into the past!

Anyone remember all those topics we had at the begining of EU CoH, with people complaining that the flag above City Hall was a US one and that it should be an EU flag, even though Paragon City is... uh, a US city?

Some real diamonds got removed with the Great Forum Wipe.

But I can't remember any, off the top of my head.

There's a lot I could mention, but the majority of forum users wouldn't think they were "fun".

Not a EU one, but I always get a smile on my face when I remember the infamous Jerk Hacker, Gone to the americans threads over there

We built this city on Rock and Roll!

The infamous guide to illusion trollers comes to mind... plus a few more guides from same author

That one just ran and ran for ages.

That is the best thread ever simply put All their reactions/posts when he posted again actually did made me laugh

Best thread on this side though was when we were all guessing the reasons behind manticore being pictured with recluse, oh and the "eyes turn green" hint from Kerensky (think it was him?).

@Damz Find me on the global channel Union Chat. One of the best "chat channels" ingame!

You've quoted my two favourites. The Defender Manifesto and Pyra's um classic

"Well, they found my diary today.
They were appropriately appalled
at the discovery of the eight victims
They're now putting it all together.
Women wrapped in silk
with one leg missing
Eight legs, one body, silk,
spider, brilliant!"

I hope not, because then I'd be scared that there is actually some masterplan to his madness...

Illusion Master The Phantoms Unique Phantom

...obviously changing names to spell I'M T' PUPIL OF INSANITY or somesuch... The scary thing about this would mean many more name changes and (inevitably) many, many, many more guides. I don't know if I can take that.

Been some classics already...

I also liked the US thread A Demand that Devs Address A Problem. Not been able to find the original, but red tomax has the original post quoted in a reply by BaBs here

And I'd feel bad if I do mention 2 threads that I started, but bad if I don't... these have managed to crack me up, often when people completely fail to see them as tongue-in-cheek and post seriously. Humour transplants really ought to be available on the NHS (and yes - I guess that I'd have to have one).

Is the CoX General Discussion Forum dying??

A missed opportunity?

Note that both of these were created after days/weeks of multiple doom mongering threads as a concious attempt to divert energy to something a bit more lighthearted and a longstanding desire to take the mickey out of complete eejits.

I've considered a similar thread recently given the recent weekend postings, but I think that any tongue-in-cheek thread would probably just get overrun by the serious nutters. No need to make an extra lock and delete task for GR come Monday morning...

I used to enjoy looking at the old Caption Comp Thread run by Silver Weasel used to crack me up everytime.

Now I suppose i'll have to wait 4 years and remember the threads about the uni-fiant merge.

Too many 50's to list here's a few you may know.
Slazenger, Area51, Area53, Area54, Erruption, Mind Plague, Thresher, Sheath, Broadside, Debt
