andlabs: I recv'd a spam email yesterday: 3/25/2020... in the body: To keep using prime, you need to update your account's payment information. Be sure to update this by Mar 23, 2020 or your account will automatically lock up.
<cr1901_modern>
1. I don't use Prime.
<cr1901_modern>
2. A bit too late for that, no?
<kode54>
andlabs: there was a PM spammer there

<andlabs>
yes but
<andlabs>
I don't remember making a vgmrips account at all o_O
<andlabs>
I definitely do not have one in my passwords list
<andlabs>
were accounts migrated from project2612?
<andlabs>
or does it date back to when oerg866 was hosting the server on a dying hard drive?
<andlabs>
I know I was storing passwords from back then but it could be that I lost that particular one
<ValleyBell>
The vgmrips forum has all accounts since day 1.
<ValleyBell>
so if you made one in 2011/2012, it probably still exists
<ValleyBell>
We kept all accounts even though we changed servers a few times.
<ValleyBell>
If you want me to reset your password, just ask.

https://youtu.be/IwldJxB8KJE?t=143 I have trouble describing it, but the special stage theme (linked time) sounds "cleaner" that it does on actual hardware. I believe this is a Sonic Mania mod.
<cr1901_modern>
Is it possible they're using a floating point-based synth emulation?
<cr1901_modern>
Doesn't sound like any recording I've ever heard
<andlabs>
ValleyBell: well that UID answers htat
<andlabs>
it was definitely during the oerg866 era
<andlabs>
and... somehow I never actually saved this password
<andlabs>
though I do suspect a reason why
<andlabs>
if this works after this long I'll be surprised
<andlabs>
okay the account isn't as old as I was thinking it was lol
