R600Durace got the most reaction and laughs. Ryanf was on the pathetic side at times with things like his guads. They both added a lot. Brandi did too in a much different way.

I wasn't here for many of the above mentioned names, but I really think Vicelord deserves at least a mention. The fierce brief flame, battered down by handcuffs at the 7-11. You honestly can't make this **** up.

2ndGen was a good one. He had a bunch of people listening to him. Then he disclosed in a thread he was short and fat. Then the massive shaming with his CAAD. WhyFi.
Poof, he was gone.

I haven't been around long enough to have enjoyed some of the legends, but recently I found Gerry Hull oddly mezmerizing. Dude had that creepy camera angle working!

Before my time, but definitely R600 he made a lasting enough impression on this place that I still read something mentioning him like once a week...
