I once owned the URL www.bustysluts.com

Sold it for $120 over a decade ago. Thought I was the man. Spent the money on bitcoin, only to lose it all during one of those huge hacks.

u/FirmDelay 22d ago

Its not impressive... and this was before esports were a thing but it was called Ground Control 2

u/InternalIce9141 22d ago

8 out of 8.6 meta critics and it DIDNT sell well? Dude if this sold well I have a feeling you would be quite well known. The game looks fun as fuck

u/Puzzleheaded-War-286 22d ago

I was the Guildmaster of a huge Guild on World of Warcraft. The greatest achievement was having fun with so many different human characters.

Still speak to a few of them, i always wonder how all the other guys and girls ended up.

I once wrote a parody blog that briefly got a lot of attention. Made it to the front pages of Slashdot, CNN online, Time.com. Got spoofed on an American sketch comedy show. Did interviews for a number of newspapers. Then it all died down and all I had to show for it was a couple of spectacular months of ad revenue from the blog.

u/IamNotMike25 22d ago

Did you sell the domain? Nowadays you could sell it for a good price with those backlinks.

u/CheeseburgerBrown 22d ago

Link rot happens faster than you think. This was a stupid amount of years ago. 2005. Not a lot juice left in that domain.

u/InternalIce9141 22d ago

Haven't played R6 yet, but an Ace is a team wipe basically right?

u/cockwizard1 22d ago

u/Germanweirdo 22d ago

Due to my past experiences I talked to a nice lady in the Phillipines and she didn't try to take her life that night but went to see her parents she was scared to confront due to her extensive bodily harm.

She messaged me a couple of months later with a picture of her and her parents holding up my username.

We aren't in contact anymore, but I see myself as kind of a shitty person, that kind of showed me I'm not as bad as I might see myself as.

u/-Firestar- 22d ago

I “beat” an MMO. Traded so much, I was one of the richest people on the server. Did all the quests, had every item including bugged ones. Even had dev parts for my ship. Became player rep for the better part of three years. Literally nothing else I could do short of becoming a dev for the game. Edit: almost forgot. That game also got me a husband but we were never on the same server.

u/USSMarauder 22d ago

So several years back I got an anti transit city councilor snared in his web of lies

The argument was about putting bus lanes on a street. This councilor posted a photo about how the street was already congested and putting bus lanes would destroy civilization blah blah blah.

During the council meeting I posted that the photo he'd posted wasn't the street in question, but was a different street several klicks away. Another council members' staff member was monitoring the chat, confirmed my message, told his councilor, who then confronted the anti-transit councilor in the middle of the meeting.

We got the bus lane

A few months before Skyrim released in 2011, Planet Elderscrolls held a contest where you had to write a little story about what the Elder Scrolls franchise meant to you and your experience with the games. The first prize was a Skyrim poster signed by the whole Skyrim team at Bethesda.

I won. It has a few dozen or so signatures in silver marker and I can safely Todd Howard's signature is an incomprehensible scribble because 10 years later I still haven't figured out which one is his.

u/maumomiamic 22d ago

I was playing minecraft on a random guys server because we didn't know how to host a server and the Admin was trolling us by giving us op boots that had looting 10 million and than took it away so me and my friend made a automatic chicken farm that was so good we crashed the server. The server never went online since

I made a simple joke on a YouTube video. It got around 10.000 likes.

I'm just glad someone liked my joke since i'm not a naturally funny person.

u/Dagda_the_Druid 22d ago

There is that one local-language website that doesn't allow one person to have multiple accounts.

And there is a report form for multiple accounts, that is used on secondary accounts and asks for "main account". The usual policy is to permban the secondary account and 2-week the main account as a punishment.

One guy was just annoying me, and I was quite drunk, so I reported him as my own secondary account. He got permbanned, I didn't even get a single hour of ban.

u/DarthDregan 22d ago

My favorite one was back in the old Halo 2 days. I absolutely massacred the other side and before the match ended I stealthily made my way into proximity chat range and I heard the most broken voice I'd heard in my life up to that point say "fuuuuuuck... I hate that [my gamertag] guy" and a lot of very sad "yeah"s.

But then I also made the best friend of my entire life online as well. So also that.

u/RunBTS 22d ago

I was one of the top players in the world for a popular mobile rhythm game (SuperStarBTS). Sadly it's been discontinued, but I'll always be extremely proud of that.

Also not my greatest achievement but amusing when I remember it-- I was in a couple Tobuscus gaming videos at one point when I was younger lmfao

There's other things but it's hard to come up with that stuff off the top of my head, I don't have a very good memory. T_T;;; I have a lot of proud moments from Destiny 2, I know that haha

Believe it or not, I really don't care. I made some statements from reddit throwaways that I saw repeated many times. I was an anonymous influencer and I liked it way more than getting a check.
