I miss the big boys of HLF, Lemar, Fosho are two I remember.

Problem now is you can't troll and everyone gets tilted. I'll post a few I have around 100 old HLF pics on my hard drive, some were trolls/memes some just joke threads in general. I miss those days.

HLF was good probably early '09 to 2011 when there was a limited number of people and people could troll each other.

Especially under Mod Mat K when he was the HLF Curator, only him, then other mods came in clamped down on everything and everyone took offense at everything.

The lack of fun with the RS forums is one of the many reasons why Reddit overtook these forums years ago.

HLF started getting a new generation of posters with a "troll" or "immature" mindset around 2011 but before then I remember it being pleasant. Small group of players with Mod Mat K frequently interacting. Good guy he was, and still is

The fun Toad mentions was the beginning of the end for this forum to me :@ It was a bunch of shit posters spamming junk

I remember people posting in the bot reporting thread here but nothing ever happened to the bots. I wrote some elaborate, goofy stories about all of the bots in a thread while tracking their daily progress and a few of the mods responded and banned a good bit of them. Mod Jane was cool.
