As a general rule, GS should bring back anything that would generate even a tiny bit of traffic and activity in the forums. OT is dead as ****.

The only thing OTAH was really good for was providing fap material via the "Hot Ladies" thread to people who had porn sites blocked on their computers. Almost all of the other threads just made me frown and shake my head, especially the one giving tips on how to bust bigger loads...

I feel sorry for anyone who's in shortage of fap material because of ISP filters. Its as easy as it gets to bypass those.

That statement was more directed to the teens who's parents blocked the websites via programs that don't want to risk getting in trouble being caught trying to override. ISP blocks aren't hard to get around; I had a VPN on my laptop and iPad I could have used to get past the porn block we had when I was in Afghanistan a few months ago (it's illegal to view or possess porn over there). Although it was more for using US-only sites like Netflix or Pandora than for looking at boobs.

OTAH was a novelty that wore off quickly, in my opinion. There's multitude of websites and forums outside of GameSpot that are better accustomed to the type of discussions that were occurring on the board, so I wouldn't see it as a considerable loss if it didn't return. I'm pretty much indifferent, since it's not a place I'd be regularly visiting.

@ad1x2: I'm curious, where you in Afghanistan as a U.S army personnel? If so, how come you had to use afghai ISP? Wouldn't that compromise confidentiality and possibly undermine deployed forces?

Id imagine that the U.S army uses some kind of sattelite Internet or any other secure Internet access

OTAH was the chillest part of GS. It was a cool place where you could just talk about sex related stuff. Bring it back GS!!

Back when the forum was actually active, it was nice to have. Now, I don't really see the point.

Wouldn't make sense since System Wars is the only board that seems to still has some decent traffic, and After Hours wasn't too hot traffic wise before the change either.

OTAH was actually one of the more active boards.

yes they should bring it back, and probly will eventually.

As for the whole "it slowed down OT" i highly doubt that. most of OT didnt even know about it. and most of the ones who did know about it, didnt like it. dont see how it could slow OT down. its just a seperate board like System Wars. the lack of members posting in OT is what slowed OT down. not OTAH. not to mention OTAH was pretty damn slow.

If this was my company there would be several people out of a job for this steaming pile of what used to be a good website. OTAH should be the least of their worries...

Anything that is classified goes through secure government connections such as the SIPRnet or JWICS. You are encouraged to use a government satellite connection to transmit anything that is "For Official Use Only" (formally "sensitive but unclassified") because while unclassified goes through the normal internet it's a little harder to hack government satellites than some average connection.

While we had taxpayer-provided wifi hotspots around the base if you wanted internet in your sleeping area you could pay about a hundred bucks a month for 512kbps ripoff internet from a company called Sniper Hill or you can use a cell phone with a Afghan SIM for $20 a month and tether it to your computer via USB or Mifi.

Obviously you have to be smart with what you do on there while using the Afghan connection. The connection was filtered to block porn and anything that was considered anti-Muslim (Youtube was blocked for almost three months after the "Innocence of Muslims" video went viral). Sending something you don't want anybody to see without a VPN wasn't the best idea in the world.

It wasn't about pleasing women during sex. It was about seeing how far you can get your load to go when you finish jerking off, like it was some type of Olympic event.

There are a lot of other sections they need to bring back before OTAH. As a matter of fact, OTAH is dead last on my list of sections I want to see revived.
