The Ban wars of 2016 were hard.

After I joined, no I don't mean that in an egotistic way it just seemed much better and more like a community back then. Now it feels more like Detroit, small groups show up now and again, its mostly rather empty feeling and full of crime or edge.

MAL is great when you first join but then things happen, people move on, new people come. I miss that Tallon guy with his long and edgy posts. Those were the days.

Most old users would probably say 2009 or smth

I say whenever Solvite and Kacespace make threads.

Solvite for CD, KaceSpace for AD.
Then again, Solvite did make threads in AD too.

back when there is a spam section, and you guess it that place is full of gold and trash threads, the spam section was removed now ever since they reorganize the forum sections

I like MAL any time I can find a thread to laugh at and then try to figure out if people are joking or if people are the joke. That being said, stay golden, Casual Discussion.

2013 was great.

I think we had a lot more memorable users back then who had more personality etc.

Every time I close my eyes, I can still hear the screaming. I can still smell the searing flesh. I still feel the swamp under my feet. The mud in my socks. I can still hear the lieutenant's voice...right before the shell hit.

Dunno. Don't care.

The coward does it with a kiss,
The brave man with a sword!''

When Cig made threads about Gayass Crock vs Badass Shark. Personally, that was the golden age for me. I even had a shitty Smartphone club that was attacked by that psycho. After that psycho hacked MAL and posted these sick photographs, MAL went downhill.

Lupadim was the one who turned me on to MAL. CD was carried by his threads. 2014 was the best for that reason imo.
