-
Oh man, I managed to find some Aces crew leagues.. damn we had so much fun here..

Hi, everyone! And to the OP, Gary Gomes. You old folks won't know me in my current guise, but I am the OFM Manger formerly known as LordBinky and Terry Phuqwitt! (Cue: collective shudder as people realise that old bollocks is back...) I was the King of the Cheat Catchers back in the day, then Community Manager for a while until SpecialOne wanted to move me upstairs or into the back office in a different role, which I couldn't accept as all I ever really wanted to do was catch cheats. Gave the game up/threw the head up twice when things got too intense. Being captain of crew battles was what did it for me, when I viewed them as real battles and nobody else really gave a shit. Was surprised/glad to see I got a mention by Osmnufc on the previous page. I recognize a few names from the past, with Sauzee/Paul standing out. What was your original name? Is Sophie/Supernova still around? I remember the spark she brought to the game/forums/crews when she joined.
Anyway, I came back to the game a while back, but I'm basically just punching the clock every day, no particular enthusiasm like before, which is maybe a good thing. I like how you don't have to spend money like before on ticket days, success/achievements have kept me solvent so far. Still winning all around me but there's no sense of community. One thing that disappoints me now, strangely, is the absence of cheats. Haven't found a single one. Did the game do something to make that more difficult? Man, the days when I was killing hundreds of accounts every day... Anyways, hope all you old fogies are keeping well. Cheers!

@tommy-timbers I think it is harder to cheat now, app doesn’t have logout button to harder to multi account on the app! But I’d say there’s still a few knocking about!
I think I recognise you, I think we may have been in same crew at one point, not sure what crew but your name rings bells!
-
@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
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:

-
@specialone I know you didn't force me to take the CM job, I was happy to accept that. But it sounded like it was going to change in nature, to where it would be more "hands off" and I didn't feel like that was something I could be, when I was a "front line" type of guy. Created new accounts as too much baggage with the old ones.
-
@ruby2003 Hi, Ruby, yes I think I remember you. Irish? Didn't your brother also play?
-
@tommy-timbers Yea
-
@tommy-timbers Woohoo! Look who's back in Osm town!
Welcome aboard to the new forums old chap. 
Feels soooo good to see you here. This one goes for you and your new nick name. 
-
@specialone Oh Charlie! You're the best and you know it !
Thanks for your post and feedback dear. -

content, so
Of course that's a reason but are we all gonna pretend it wasn't for the fact the game changed both the Manager Points/Ranking System and changed the tactics engine? That's what actually pushed many legends to leave and therefore the forums being in this dire state.
Anyway, since we're sharing, you might recognise some of these names (I'm also kinda bragging)
And a crew battle sheet of us getting absolutely trashed by the one and only RO MANIA. Wonder if any of the big crews are still around?
-
Wow those names make me nostalgic
Otis was a cool dude, wonder what he's up to these days.
I also calculated epl predictor for 2 seasons which have a whole list of names (game use to attract over 100 users).
-
Oh yeah, I stopped playing competitive for years so I totally forgot about the MP Ranking system change. That one for sure pushed away too many legends of the game. Years and years of hardwork pushed away in a moment. I cant believe that they havent considered putting some sort of "Legendary Ranking", at least in records page, which wuould honor most loyal customers and showed them respect by showing them how much MP's they earned in their whole career...
Worst decision this game ever made. I do support most of the aspect of nowadays ranking system, but there should be some sort of system that would benefit those most loyal as well.

Well, there are old crews in the game, but not very competitive like in the old days i guess, and the number of crews increase more and more and not very good and with many kids who do not have money for boss coins. Also, many new crews are good and very active with good managers.

Hello everyone. Started OFM back in 2012 and yes, it was called OFM (Online Football Manager) back then lol. I left the game during mid 2015 and here I am now back again out of curiosity. Things changed so much! Damn. It's nowhere as how it used to be. I still remember you Matt and DE XRIST. Idk if you guys can remember me though. lol....Used to be friends with Sir Adam C, Yoshua Yasmin and others back in the days! Used to be a part of The Awsum Yozius crew. I remember we used to be in the top 50 crews globally back then. Damn I really miss those good ol' days.
