This bit from his resignation thread is where I got the bit about you apparently communicating w Freeman. Which, even when I read that I was like "wow they talked over PM?"

and then he just fumbles the bag immediately because he wants to keep writing a Skyrim fanfic. Peak fedora-wearing shit gotdamn

You've gotta have serious spite burning deep within to keep up a ruse like that for long enough to actually get accepted into an org

Fuckin hell alright yeah I kind of knew that first half but the GRU infiltration bit is nuts

Speaking of replaying the series, I started doing it months before the vol 1 collection was even announced. I'm only at MGS4 now lol, although I've taken big breaks (including from that damn FROG section in the hotel)

I fucking despised Freeman so I don't know why I'd be talking him about anything hahaha

I can't remember talking to Freeman about it so idk what the secrecy thing he told you about was, I think maybe Rain wanted us not to talk about PF drama to anyone? But it's been that long that I don't think it matters any more

At some point, quiite a while later (I can't remember exactly how long), a user named "TheBirdofHermes" joined GRU who was actually Edo in disguise. He joined GRU presumably to spy on people in the PF. He got found out because Edo had an unfinished Skyrim fanfiction thread in the PF so "TheBirdofHermes" asked everyone if he could finish it because he "thought it had a lot of potential". Rain or Tollhouse got really suspicious and messaged an admin (maybe @Null ) asking them to check him out. Turned out it was Edo and he got banned. We were all freaking out that he was hanging out in GRU in secret for so long

BUT it goes on

@tr0nic it was a long time ago so my memory may not bee so great but as I recall, he made a poll in GRU one day with the goal of kicking Flying Spaghetti Monster out because he wasn't very active in the PF (bear in mind, this was BEFORE he went of the rails and made everyone hate him). Almost everyone in GRU disagreed with him because they felt that FSM was harmless despite being inactive. I guess he got super salty that no one agreed with him so he left GRU and dropped off the face of the Earth

@Aragorn love the new avi. Was wondering when you’d stop being an egg account.

MGS2 would be my favorite in the series if it wasn't for the stupid fucking node system

Weeell GOOD for you at this rate I will still be on this fucking mountainside by the time you're crawling through the microwave hallway

On MGS2 now

I actually started replaying the entire series a few months ago in story order

Thanks to this site existing I decided to replay MGS3 and am reminded that I haven't properly played an MG game since I was 14 and am complete ass now.

I... am STEVE!

@Jassassino How was it Jass, I had it down as being another Borderlands-esque trainwreck but apparently not?

Truly MGSF’s greatest plot twist.
