    Glad to see some old players are still here. It's a shame how this community ended up in my opinion. You guys probably don't know me (as I don't know most of you), because OSM/OFM was never my biggest priority. I think I've been Staff here as Bug Support back in 2005 or something in here but could've been just forum moderator. I was more active on GameBasics' PlazaChallenge as Staff. After GameBasics decesion to stop it to focus on OFM, I received 3 years of free Premium and then I quit.

    Some screenshots I found back from that time: https://mega.nz/#F!atQAyaiQ!da8uYCtPuHjajZj3I__Bgw

      Man the forums used to be the only reason I played this game back in the days but now it's the opposite .... Forums are dead compared to the old times .... I used to remember there was like whole page of new topics and posts everyday before but now here you see 1 year ago last posts in 1 page πŸ˜‚ ....

      @King-Noel Yup, there was so much fun and banter back in the old days on forums... forum competitions, genius topic, clown topics only for bumping your "posts" number on profile.. there was so much variety and fun.. nowadays even when you try something new you end upo being offensive and receving bans and stuff.. experienced it on my own skin.. But oh well.. At least we have the privilege to experience it πŸ™‚

        @Majstor-Matt I couldn't agree more man .... OSM lost many members because they were over strict meaning the mods before ruined the chats ... Now the mods are good but the problem is that the damage has been done by those old mods and staff and now its too late ... Most active members left the forums and now here its like a graveyard.

        I myself made many forum games back in the days ... Like the sheep game, voting favourite movies, Counting to 1000 etc....

        Anyone remember OFM FC hosted by Iccy ... Man I miss those days ... I miss those members like Iccy, Otis, Macca, Ryan, Diar, Peter, Tom, Paul, Vishnu, Harry, Sophia (still here), Matt (still here) etc... I forgot many names haha

          @tommy-timbers Why a new account and not 'revive' the old one?

          And I didn't forced you to take the CM position... I invited you and you agreed on trying, you could always step down to the cheat hunter task πŸ‘

          Nice to see you back.

          Sophie @SUPERNOVA-8 is still around but way less active latelly, but once in a while she pops up to delight us with her posts.

          About old OFM images.... how many of you remember names on this squad:

            So good to see those old screenshots. I've got quite a few myself but I'd have to sift through my computer to find them. Or perhaps I bought them on Photobucket back in the day when it was free...

              I do have plans to launch my forum relating to OFM/OSM tactics... It was meant to be launched years ago in the hay days of the game but it may be a cool place to chill for the nostalgic players too perhaps? πŸ€”

                Hahaha, you're not wrong @luca-pirlo.

                I'm seriously considering creating a new external forum for nostalgic managers which will also be used as a community/fan site for OSM... Do you guys think I should launch it?

                    @luca-pirlo I still remember asking you to make me a forum moderator haha .... It was from my old account (which is deleted) ... I miss those old days bro ... btw I did become a forum moderator at the end, when Carol recommended me and Joao made me forum mod but I resigned after a while.

                      Btw, anyone know why Stefan Jovanovic isnt among us anymore, I mean why is he banned? I know him from 10 years ago, english staff and league manager if i remember correctly.

                      I remember that he introduced me to forums and premium tickets, oh when I remember thoese days, OFM was much better place.

                          Yeah, too bad current rankings are showing only current in form players. There should be some kind of Hall of fame which would show rankings with all the achieved points, so that only points count. This way some players with 10-15 years of game are degraded to 1-2 old year paying customers.

                              @fergiie86 Yup, that si a big minus for me as well. It would be really fair that there is some kid of "legacy ranking" or "hall of fame" where you could see a list of people who earned most points ever on the game.. this current ranking is okay and it awards current form which is nice, but additional ranking that would not be main ranking, but the one to check someones legacy wouzld really be great addition to the game.

                                A legacy ranking system would be perfect. Or at least the "Best of OFM".

                                For those interested I'm currently working on setting up a separate forum to OSM. Hopefully it will take off and it is going to have a close to the previous forum structure as possible for those nostalgic feels. πŸ˜„

                                        @Gary-Gomes said in Any nostalgic managers still playing OFM?:

                                        Does anyone have some screenshots of the old OFM forum? I wouldn't mind keeping some of those topics/categories in place for my community. I'm working on it as we speak. Thinking of going ahead with IP.Board as the choice of forum software.

                                        I just thought I'd repost this. Does anyone have any screenshots of the old OFM forum please? Or perhaps know where I can find them?

                                        Some follow up on the new forum;

                                        • My old IP.Board licence has been renewed and will be the chosen forum software.
                                        • Currently loading the forum with categories and forums.
                                        • Setting up groups and a premium subscription for those wanting more out of the community (exactly what is yet to be decided upon).
                                        • Sorting out permissions for groups.
                                        • A name for the community has been chosen; this will be shared soon.

                                        Once I've got the basics above sorted out I will be in a position to send out personalised invitations. Stay tuned all - I have a feeling this is going to be top class! πŸ˜„
