[chineseblues]

^ Yeah, I remember those guys.

Also, where is Christos? And chineseblues?

Also, who remember that fake insider from 2002 who posted false hints about the band with emoticons/emoji? Can't remember his nickname...

Not sure about that crazy Greek guy, but I'm still around lurking. Been a long time man. So many new faces here. Where is my old buddy rainX?

Hey man, good to see you around

Not sure about Reynics here, but I still talk to him here and there on Facebook. Same with Farrell and Jazjme.

Holy crap I totally forgot about Farrell! She was the bomb..

Wow, awesome. I remember back in the day when we ran thenewguns she wanted me bad lmfao.

Hahaha, it happens.

Where is my old buddy rainX?

I thought I saw him posting here about a week ago under a different screen name. Sounded like him and even mentioned a long gone web site but didn't say the name(I thought he might have meant newguns). I sent him a PM but it wasn't him.

Last time I talked to rainX was in 2008 when Shacklers leaked.

Lots of interesting characters from those "good old days". I always wondered what happened to nesquick. Had a really strange obsession with Fortus that went way beyond the usual hardcore Fortus fans. His Buckethead hate was legendary. When the leaks happened he was saying how beautiful the Fortus solos were and it was proof that the "robot with no emotion" Buckethead wasn't needed. Someone emailed Fortus asking him about the leaks and he said it wasn't him and was actually Buckethead. We all knew this of course but this news caused nesquick to disappear. I made some joke about nes offing himself but its really not a joke. I wish he would've dropped in somewhere just to let us know he's alive.

You could spend a long time namedropping people. I loved Saul with his "Chinese Democracy starts now!" posts that he used with perfect comedic timing.

EvaGNRAxlRosette.....ppbebe.....AxlRoseVen(what a nut).....Gigger....davegnr2k....BookerFloyd.....SLCPUNK...prometheus...Philly Riot....Rocket Queen...Stoner...Thorazine.... Mike Giuliana....list goes on and on and on....

Great to see BlowUpYourVideo and Richard Nixon in this thread.  Haven't seen a post from you guys in a coon's age.

[Voodoochild]

Wow, I remember davegnr2k's meltdown. That was some serious shit hahahahaha

[jarmo]

Some got banned along the way, and a decade later, some things haven't changed.

I do find it funny how I, when see posts telling myself to fuck off or something along those lines, then that person gets banned, and I'm the asshole.

Wow, I remember davegnr2k's meltdown. That was some serious shit hahahahaha

dave's every other post is still about jarmo on the other forums. His heart was broken.

The board must have been revamped in 2002?  That is last post I can find under my profile, but I'm sure I was lurking here before that (at least since RIR3?)... I remember getting my GNR news from some website called CDNow.com and it only had like 3 headlines over 10 years, until "Axl Rose Impresses Vegas With His New Guns N' Roses" showed up and I started visiting here instead - anticipating that a new album was right around the corner!   

Fuck, I've wasted so much time reading pointless BS on here.  I'm sure a few good things have come from it... maybe I discovered some new bands or something.

I remember "mikegiuliana" (?) and "Mr. Roboto" going back and forth in some argument one time.  I think he posted a picture of himself shirtless and issued a fight challenge... or maybe it was another board and then mikegiuliana joined this board afterwards.  Also some drunk poster named horsey who would send PMs of her tits - not as exciting as it sounds, believe me!

What happened there?  Did somebody finally start requiring him to type and spell properly?

Can't remember that well. But what I do remember is that he was really pro-NewGNR, but he flipped and then started hating everyone suddenly.

And D was 'who's the next one to snap?'

The board must have been revamped in 2002? 

It was the serverchange iirc. Many posts didn't make the export.

12 years 7 months but used to post in the guest book cause I didn't know what the fuck a message board was HAHHAHA

Lotta epic times
Remember when we all changed our shit to Ghostbusters?

Shit I earned my Karma, Jarmo shoulda banned me a few times hahahhaa

[C0ma]

Been here since well before the 2002 reboot of the site... while taking chunks of time off here and there. I bounced around other sites early on (I still miss the disaster that was gnronline.com) but settled on this one for a variety of reasons.

It's great seeing the names being mentioned in here, I recently went back and read through all of my posts, which then led me down a rabbit hole into the corresponding threads and remembering the personalities from the past.
and what it was like to finally put faces to names at Mustang Harry's back in 2006 for the Hammerstein shows.

I'm very thankful that this place and the people that make it up is still going strong after all these years.

[Lucky]

so this is the "no longer teenager" thread?

[Voodoochild]

I wasn't a teenager 10 years ago.

[Spirit]

Can't even remember exactly but I started visiting this site in the late 90s. It's been a wild ride, lots of ups and downs in the world of GNR. But definitely a fun time.

I wasn't a teenager 10 years ago.

Sigh.  Neither was I.     I'm an old fart.   

[Lucky]

come to think of it.... neither was I
