Yup we certainly had our own memes. And they were usually at the expense of someone, and as (almost) everyone matured, we stopped seeing that kind of humor

I still remember that the summer meet was always around my bday in Aug, and it was tradition to go to the meet, stock up on merch, and celebrate~ lolol kinda worked out as most of friends were also on RevScene, so it was the same group of people who went to meets as well as my bday party lmao

That Lexus IS-F thread was pretty epic and super sad at the same time.

I imagine the average age of people still surfing RS has to be in their 40's by now.. I remember when "Post Whoring" was a thing back in the day and when Fight Club used to be great

Good ol' post whoring days. Anyone remember Super Lammy, the OG post whore? Curious where she went and how she's doing.
FC was great until things got personal. Then again, attitudes have shifted towards online flaming so it's an interesting evolution towards forum posting.

I remember some user named diggy something once had the “last post” on every single thread. I’ve never seen anyone else achieve such lame/greatness. I wanna say aowdiggy? Something like that..

Yes, I remember the username.
I went into the VLS Relationships Forum and into the "Speak It Out Thread." I suspect he had a username change, potentially PK EK or something.
I'll let TOS'd confirm.

I still try to come on at least once a week to keep up, share some gaming info, participate a little bit in the middle of the workday.
There hasn't been a whole lot of forum moderation required, its the same group that flows through (which I appreciate) and a majority if not all over the last year or so have been fairly civil (apart from the CiC debacle).
I hope everyone is genuinely doing well, Happy New Year!
Enjoy this while we can! Lets hope the hamster doesn't stop turning for a while.
edit: My favorite thread ever, even til this day, due to the concept and the reception, had been "Fucked up things what make you laugh". Not only did the title make people think, there were debates regarding correcting the name (lots of support for keeping it the same), it was the Reddit for me before Reddit! I always felt so in the loop with funny pics and memes and videos because of that thread. It was a riot.

I think he said he worked at London Drugs, or something like that.
He changed his username a couple of times.
Lots of interesting people on RS back then. I remember most of them.
I'm sure some of them are still around.
I think I'm one of the more active thread starters in VOT. I remember a member criticized me of wasting peoples time when I started the No Need to Start a New Thread, thread. 778 pages and counting.............. hmmmmmm.
I do my best to try promote RS. Even if it means wasting people's time and looking like a fool..

One thing I miss is the great Import vs Domestic memes.
You guys remember the "My 2L coke bottle has more displacement than a civic engine" one?
