More like bored hunters.

I can't imagine anything more dull than clicking around to find a message board no one has posted in

Didn't people find a journal on a dead board? One that had been going for a while?
Either that or they were having a convo with themselves.

I literally posted a new topic on 261 immediately before they shut it down. So technically I own 261.

IIRC the social boards were introduced to discourage this sort of behavior. It didn't work.

It was fun back then, because the knowledge of old weird game titles wasnt common knowledge. This was back in like 2003 or so.

You could probably very easily find a list of all manufactured video games on the internet back then.

at that point, it would just be a matter of crossing off every title on the list.

I remember those days. Good times. Those old game boards especially C64 boards didn't have topicality so you didn't have to worry about off-topic posting.
