Any nostalgic managers still playing OFM?

The deletion-part is requried by law, why personal data (if handled) must be deleted, when the purpose ends. Due to the technical limitation to check which account has personal information, and which not, it is applicable to delete all older accounts after an amount of time.
In Germany e.g., there is §195 BGB which says, that the "Standard limitation period" is 3 years. This means, after 3 years, you don't have any chance to fight for something. Then the ultimate purpose for storing information is gone and the deletion needs to be done.I don't know the standard limitation periods for other (european) countries, but I think it is mostly this amount of time, if not less. But in Data Privacy, other countries orienting themself on the GDPR, why a lot of laws say, that data mus be deleted after purpose is gone (ADPPA, PDPL, PIPL, ....)

If anyone’s listening…
I think my user was King_Macca which I became a forum moderator and then a staff person that found lots of cheaters

I then became ‘Undisputed
️’ but all the changes to the game and life took control.A leader of the crew ‘Rebels’ that never challenged but tried to beat ‘Fearless Aces’
We had pwhibs, Diar, Majstor Matt, LordBinky, Otis (class at graphics)

Either way a real good time and hosting ‘Guess the Player’ was a bloody nightmare but very fun.
Not sure if you’ll ever hear from me again so you can find me on insta at MaccaaaRace

P.S. After my tactics testing I’ve have users messaging me on insta/twitter for years asking for tactics

Hello Gary..... -
Hi @DE-XRIST, how are you? It's been a long time!

Around 7 years ago, @Gary-Gomes started this topic where all the nostalgic guys were talking about the good old times. Little did they know that fast forward to 2025, and it would be much worse. The topic would not be as active, pretty much all legends left the game or accounts deleted, apart from @Majstor-Matt and @SpecialOne. At least it was still a bit active back then, with people posting every day. Now even that is not left. The glamour of the forums has vanished.

The only reason I logged in today was to protect my account from being deleted; I have no idea what the statute of limitations is, but if it is three years, then that is me home and dry until the EURO 2028 final or thereabouts.
I am, however, starting to get a 503 Excessive Load Warning when I load the forums sometimes. Surely OSM isn't that busy nowadays; it certainly wasn't in my 2013-15 heyday.

Hello everyone! Great nostalgia reading this thread

I have been playing for quite a few years (have had my crew still going since 2006) and was wondering whether there were any managers still playing the game from the good old days of OFM? Any older staff members that know me still a part of Gamebasics?
It would be awesome to get back in touch with you guys!
How are you all?
My oh my how things have changed around here.

I play since 2007. My first club Shakhtar in the Champions Cup. Unfortunately I don't have access to that account.
