Re: OS Site History.....

I can give you a small morsel....

There were two owners before Steve... Craig and Jeff.

Steve was a the late night "news" guy and eventually the main "news" guy. He didn't really write, he just scoured the Internet for stories. He was and still is remarkable at it.

The original writing staff was pretty tiny.

The first BOOM came after Steve bought the site from Jeff. Around the same time there was a mass-exit from the Sports Gaming forum over at IGN. That's where we picked up guys like Shawn (sdrotar) and Mark (fossen). In fact, for close to a year... there was a kind of Old School OSers and Old IGNers who took a little wild to blend.

From there... the forums really started blowing up. Steve made a ton of great connections...

Yada... yada.... Here you are.

AND... FWIW... I'm pretty sure I (Clay) didn't do a Mass Celling. I believe I'm being framed for that.

AND... my two favorite threads are the dude who did the Atari Basketball write-up that was brilliant... and (I'm biased)... "How Do I Tell Me Girlfriend?"...

Re: OS Site History.....

Clay!

I believe it was you who celled quite a few guys at once although it sounds like come thing bdoughty would do.

I always thought you guys were the funniest two ever even if it was unintentional. Talking about trolling trolls...you two had it mastered.


FYI tmskillz used to post in hot pink

Another poster here always posts in bold red

Re: OS Site History.....

Anyone remember any of the April Fools' jokes here on OS over the years? I can't recall any right now...
