Blueflood still plays Spiral Knights somewhat regularly. He goes by Good-Spirit now and you can find him streaming it: https://www.twitch.tv/damon180

Midnight!
First of all I still play, second of all how am I behind Bopp in the ranking?????? What is this!?!?!?
How did I make this list?
(Honoured to be added to a list with crazy names though!)
At least I am remembered for something xD
(Did I make your list due to the count to 5000 thread, or are there other things I am not remembering that helped me earn a top 5 most-hated spot? :P)
@Fehzor
Actually you are on top of Bopp that means you are more annoying than him. Bopp mainly got the spot for been self contradicting. He posts a lot of research on SK and seems to like to pride himself as somewhat of a logical person. Yet, he keeps scoffing at the idea that the game is dying, saying things along the line of 'they said SK is gonna die years ago and yet here we are' even though all evidence pointed towards that SK have already descended into the dreaded maintenance mode. A mode that most MMOs rarely recover from.
I think I have already said this but SK has about, at best, 5% of active players left from back when it is at its peak, if that is not a dead MMO then I don't know what is.
@Markus-Aurelius
I am not going to tell you the reason since I think I have already wasted enough time on this forum. But rest assured, only the top 3 people have actually directly insulted me or have slighted my personal work (be it long essay, story or drawings). They made it personal, and I will never forget or forgive those acts so long as I live.
From arcknightdelta downwards till Bopp, the 'hate' is more of a 'mild contempt' than anything else (everyone after Bopp is either neutral, partial respect or fully respect). There are things these people said or did on SK forum that I strongly disagree with and would not take their side even if that means SK gets a miracle revival. Or find them too irritating to be talking with (this is the case with Fehzor, who is, a troll? I guess?).
The game's player base peaked sometime in mid-2011. It has been declining pretty steadily since then (except for some bumps after big updates, maybe). The game is still playable.
The game is dying, in the same sense that we are all dying (at least those of us past our physical and mental peaks). The game is not dead, in the same sense that we are all not dead. The game is worth enjoying while it lasts, in the same sense that our lives are worth enjoying while they last.
Cheers. :)
Haven't been on this forum for a long time. I'm surprised my name was on this list. Loved being apart of the SK community in the day and I'm active again on a new account (Baby-Got-Back). Hit me up with a friend request. Love to connect with some OGs and talk some.
I'm starting to love this game again.
WAIT
I'm actually surprised someone remembered me
I've been checking the game from time to time but it doesn't seem like there are any new content updates are there?
Wow, crazy how I started playing this game when I was 10. Now I'm 19, and starting my second year of university. Gotta miss the good old days of SK ):
I recall starting this game in 2014 I believe. To see it existing in such a sad state, it’s torturous to me. Part of me wishes that they would just shut it down for good. This post is like a graveyard.
Nice to see Nebrium and Leekcoco. But wow the name ezho brings back memories. The first person I saw in full chaos gear running around with CTR VH status bombs while striker. Miss those days of playing pvp in the Terminators guild.
Look at this video you are going to cry

The good old days! Grimranger & Rangerwillx are the same person -- me. I had a lot of fun playing gvg back in the day and prided myself on being on the A team for what were various iterations of the same guild, the most popular of which was Rigorous. Played a shitton with Rebel-Ex, Canozo, Redblades, Ezho, Lsky, Mwacky, and others back then. Sadly my main account seems to be lost -- I've tried contacting support (lol) because it won't let me send a recovery email to it.
GvG was a lot of fun back then because The Jempire had by far the highest amount of lockdown players, and were pretty much universally detested by the rest of the PvP guilds. Those polaris-spamming, GF ASI VH bastards always had the best gear and had no "honor." We were able to get the better of them for a while, but over the course of history they had to be the guild that won the most (and definitely played the most). However I will say that on the smaller scale of T2 Lockdown, we were definitely the best ever. It also required a bit more finesse in my opinion since it required more hits!
Anyone remember Aequitas? They were super sick. My rose-tinted glasses still see Exileddread as the best player of all time, but I was barely a teenager then. I was going to join them at one point but my young self was too timid to join their teamspeak server. Ah, good times.
Looking back I still wish Three Rings did more with Lockdown. Maybe it's because I was already head-over-heels for the game, but it really played out so well. If they added customizable servers or something (1v1/2v2 options, mess around with health, etc.) I'm sure PvP would've lasted for longer than it did. Blast Network was honestly pretty fun, too. I was top 3 on the leaderboard at a few points in 2012/13.
Some people's new names are already put as oldies in this post.
Examples like:
Pheonix-Knight is Idfwu
Therealest is Serazia
Zeus-Thunderhold is Light-Work
Communism-Works is Epic-Legend-Knight
etc, etc..
