We will always have the Battle Polls my dude…
Without SRK I would still be a damn virgin and suck with women. SRK turned me into a man. Not even joking lol.
It was fun chatting with you guys. This is definitely a good forum. The One Piece thread is also god tier with good posters like @White Shadow with some deep theories and knowledge
@SWBeta it’s been fun chatting with you about life and seeing you tilt and hate on the FF14 thread.
@Orochizoolander, it was fun meeting you in Vegas.
Made some good friends on this website. But I guess life goes on.
Goodbye SRK.
We really need to get an archive going of all the great threads that are still up.
Hell, losing Tech Talk is going to be a huge blow alone. It was basically THE source for a LOT of FGC related tech data.
Hopefully this place doesn’t die. Finally bought material for a DIY viewlix.
CvS2 Announcer A new challenger has entered the teary-eyed circle jerk. You must crush them.
Joined post-09er era looking for competition in 3rd Strike while in college when Online Edition dropped. Turns out it was a dead game but I ended up finding competition in my state. Made many good friends cause of this site and hobby.
Overall, I was just an off and on poster who made lame zingers every once in a while, nothing special. I’ve met some GD members irl in and said what’s up.
My only noteworthy thread was when I started a ban B-Tier Bison thread when I was bored writing an essay one night. Thread got closed but I wish it didn’t. It would’ve been funny to see how badly my younger self was gonna get roasted LOL.
Tldr;
See you all on the other side :tup:
SFxT GD was lit for years and years.

Didn’t know about SRK and was still playing Alpha 2 and Third Strike finally learning the rest of the roster. Met some dudes at a video game concert who got me thinking more about learning strats rather than beating on the cpu introducing me to this site. When SFIV went online and SSFIV had a more stable online my love and appreciation opened up. And so we scatter back to our separate online clans and tribes. See y’all online wherever you go. I’ll be continuing to grow my love for fighting games on my Fighter’s Uprising series covering lesser known fighters. All the best fam.
Also, Smash will never be a fighting game to me.
Had to log in one last time and say shout out to the Image Mishmash OG’s. Can’t put into words how much I loved that sub forum. Can’t believe it’s been 13 years… Thanks for the memories
Shit, someone archive those!
And the Bauer Power Hour threads!
OMG you’re lobelia!? That’s why the name was vaguely familiar but didn’t ring a bell. I 'member you from the gay thread. I’m dying of nostalgia and embarrassment reading my posts from being a teenager. I just read one I’m not proud of talking about how “I just dont understand trannies” asdl;fjkasdl;fkasdf but hey we’re all young and dumb. I certainly remember you being pretty obnoxious at times but I’d like to thank you for introducing me to my first concept of someone as trans. Glad you’re doing well.
That post was Prime.
Unfortunately I said everything I needed to about this place a couple years ago in a version of the Lounge last time they were talking about closing the forums down. Looked back at my oldest posts for nostalgia. Came here in 2011, and it took me a full year to even fuck with GD. Kinda funny to think about how I’m not even the same person anymore. I started here looking to improve my Juri in SF4. Some broke fuck in high school with confidence issues and emotional problems. Now I’m a grown man with a stable job, an improved mentality and a better outlook on life.
To reflect all the changes I’ve made, I think this name is finally going to die here. Made it back for Counter Strike Source in junior and kinda kept it. Whatever end game solution people come up with for keeping this community alive, I’m going with a new title when we all move.
You should just call yourself TGG wherever you go so people can wonder at the mystery behind the legend…
Ayy was going back through all my old posts, cringe included, and found the thread way back when you made me not one but two of my first avatars on here. Looking through old hdd’s to see if I still have them. GGs on Phantom Dust back in the day
Thanks for all the great tech! May SRK live forever in our hearts.
Hopefully it can live at least a few more years and just be restructured onto a cheaper hosting service. This community while not as active as it once was still sees decent amount of dedicated traffic. Still don’t think we need to throw the towel in yet.
I wish I still had my old Team Athena avatar for old times sake.
yooooo <3 I saw your name earlier and immediately had a nostalgia trip! I was bummed to see any old avatars I made people are gone off imageshack or wherever I hosted em. that gives me an idea though I still have my old photobucket account I think!!
phantom dust was my favorite game evaaaaaa
aww nope no srk avatars on there, just ones from other forums
