What happens when you let loose CoH players in Star Trek Online. WARNING: contains suggestive material, extreme canon instability, Unicron, potassium-eating space horses, The Rocky Horror Show, and Majel Barrett.
Oh, and +1 vote for Dead_Calm's Defender Manifesto.
Is it time for the dance of joy yet?
Gone to the Americas for it's ability to stand the test of time, randomness, and mystery.
It was a bit of a shame when the OP followed up a few years back. Some saw it as a sign of the apocalypse.
Honorable mention to the original Pie thread, may it rest in the forum archives in the sky. I believe it dated to issue 2 or 3. Good times.....good times.
The Gone to the Americas thread for sure.
Any thread with a /jranger in it.
The majority of the old Champion server Hami drama threads.

Threads to Watch
"the reason there are so many sarcastic pvpers is we already had a better version of pvp taken away from us to appease bad players. Back then we chuckled at how bad players came here and whined. If we knew that was the actual voice devs would listen to instead of informed, educated players we probably would have been bigger dicks back then." -ConFlict

The thread currently running about scrapperlock is a lot of fun to read, for example, even if not all the stories involve scrappers per se.

All-Star Trolls.
It lasted a LOT longer than I thought it would. (Almost a year)
Statesman, I'm Calling You Out
This was a thread about a guy ranting and raving about how Dual Blades weren't heroic weapons, and should have only been given to villains.
Any post in the Stalker boards that led to an argument between Angry Citizen and TOTALITY.
I wish these threads were still available for viewing.

EDIT: Also the thread where BaB was like "Castle you %^&*(!!!!!!!!", for Castle spilling the beans on what BaB was working on at the time. Fuzzy memory on that one.

Just pages and pages of 
was awesome lol, then cuppa posted and even MORE 's were there . . . good times!My favourite thread was on the old EU forums and we had our mod giving us VERY wierd clues before ouroboros was introduced to the game. The entire forum working together coming up with completely wierd ideas as to what the clues meant . . . . . . GOOD TIMES!
That television/Aeon thread was pretty good too
@Damz Find me on the global channel Union Chat. One of the best "chat channels" ingame!

A lot of good ones in this list, but those are two of my favorites. I remember a thread a while ago where somebody with a great sense of humor started a "Questions for a newbie" thread where he had great funny answers to questions about CoH/V. I wish I could find it.

LOCAL MAN! The most famous hero of all. There are more newspaper stories about me than anyone else. "Local Man wins Medal of Honor." "Local Man opens Animal Shelter." "Local Man Charged with..." (Um, forget about that one.)
Guide Links: Earth/Rad Guide, Illusion/Rad Guide, Electric Control
There was a great thread in 04 or 05 where someone described the hero ATs (no villains yet) I don't remember if it was a farm theme or not, but all I remember is them describing blasters as chickens with their heads cut off running around exploding randomly. (or something like that) It was a very funny read (and accurate for all the ATs) but I've never been able to find it.
But yes, "What my 6 year old has learned" is one of my favorite threads over the past 6 years. Also any busy "Heroes" episode threads in the Comic and Hero/Villain Culture section. Hickman, McBeast, BBM and the other regulars can make any episode awesome. Many, many, real laugh out loud moments reading those.
@Mental Maden @Maden Mental
"....you are now tackle free for life."-ShoNuff
Jack: (as I attempt to recall it) "There are no further plans to change the way powers operate in game."
or,
"Lies, and the Lying Liars who Tell Them" or however that thread went. Epic.
There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

Where's the Standard Code Rant copypasta and the other such responses that we often use? There should be a thread dedicated to just those references
Please read my FEAR/Portal/HalfLife Fan Fiction!
