Bwahaha! I found the Tendocity.net archives!
Okay, they're really hard to navigate. But they're here!
You see, as far as I can tell the system which runs the forum is MIA (the CGI and stuff) -- so no threads list page, at least not one I know how to get to. All there is is, in the FTP, a whole bunch of numbered HTML documents -- one for each thread created.
So how does one find what each thread is? Well, you can open them, or for the ones up until the end of August of 2002 you can use web.archive.org

which has one page of the threads-list for Tendo City (August 10-August 29 2002) but no actual threads I can see. So you look at the forum folder (1 for Tendo, etc), then the post number, and get that file in the TC FTP and look at it.
So yeah, it's not easy, but can be done, for those couple of weeks... For the rest, well, there's just 1500 threads to look through... :D
The web.archive.org/ftp.tcforums combo managed to get me to this thread, though:
ftp://ftp.tcforums.com/www/noncgi/Forum1...01312.html
(I can't figure out a way to access these pages outside of the FTP, so you need FTP access to see them as far as I can tell)
On this page, OB1 quotes IGN saying that Timesplitters 2 will be 10 times better than Goldeneye and then says 'told you so DJ'.
Now then, how do you dodge THIS one, OB1? Oh, you didn't say it, at least not in that thread, but you said someone who said something equivilant (Goldeneye, not PD) was right and bolded the sentence in question (among others).
