What's the history of TGstation hosting?

Post by Flightless » #656215

While consuming resolved ban appeals like a alcoholic, I found one by the name of "Scared of Shaddows", who, to all the world looks like your average shitter main, has one intristing comment below. "What would you expect from a former host who ect. ect. ect.". Looking through his posts, I found out that MSO in fact was not always the host, contrary to the Greytide Gospel. There apparently where three different hosts throughout TG history, MSO, good ol MSO, a apparently power-trippy greifer known as Scared of Shadows, and another one, known as ad0n3, who don't have a forum account. The history of TG station page dose have a brief description of the original host, presumably SoS, transferring power to another host, who I think is ad0n3, before MSO took the lead. ad0n3 isn't mentioned on the forums except the post on the power transfer between him and Scared-Of-Shadows, a few ban appeals, and several other misc threads. I wasn't here for any of this, and I'm fairly curious to hear the history before everyone involved leaves SS13. Who was SoS? Why dosn't Ad0n3 have a forum account, and how did MSO become host?

SoS was a product of our 4chan beginnings, but terrible all the same.
MSO took over in euh 2016?

Back when the serv was new, /tg/station was down on its luck. And everywhere big-headed brutes called Banbots ran amok.

It was a nasty place. There was a mess wherever you stepped. Where chaos rained and lagquakes and exploiters never slept.

And then along came Stoned. He hurled his deadminbolt (He zapped). Locked those suckers in a vault (They're trapped). And on his own stopped chaos in its tracks. And that's the gospel truth. The guy was too type A to just relax.

And that's the serv's first dish, 'SO tamed the station while still in his youth. Though honey it may seem impossible, that's the gospel truth.

On Adminbus life was neat and smooth as sweet vermouth. Though honey it may seem impossible, that's the gospel truth.
