Most outstanding/outrageous posts on Pianostreet

on: September 14, 2008, 01:34:57 AM

Now and then I read some old posts in my history and some dramas are very amusing. Please share ones that stands out, in whatsoever way, for you

one of my first posts was in this notorious thread which needs no introduction

https://www.pianostreet.com/smf/index.php/topic,4177

and recently people trying to sell their products on here with funny attempts to refute our questioning.
https://www.pianostreet.com/smf/index.php/topic,30657.0.html
which was soon followed by
https://www.pianostreet.com/smf/index.php/topic,30680.0.html

oh the drama!

"m1469's moustache competition" was also fun.
But alas, this was also removed by nils.

"Wolfi the woman competition", was equally funny.

The most consistently entertaining posters are probably marik and thalbergmad. They both have an uncanny ability to deflate pretentious posters who take themselves far too seriously.
