Top Ten Most Peculiar Things That Happened Involving TheTopTens in 2020

Not surprising this time, but peculiar instead. That's because many of the items that were on the previous lists were simply not surprising in the slightest.
The Top Ten
1 htoutlaws2012 hits 1,000 followers

Quite possibly the best thing that has happened this year. He deserves all of his followers for all of his hard work and contributions. This is definitely something to celebrate about.

Definitely a special moment for a hardworking user this guy deserves them all. Definitely one of the best things to happen on TheTopTens this year

The first user ever to hit 1,000 followers. He deserves them rightly. Htoutlaws2012 is an amazing hard working user.

2 Userguy44 returns

He's one of the best users of Gen-19, and we hope that he stays longer on this site.
Edit: He's a late Gen-18 user.

We thought Lars would never see us again, here he is back. But for how long? Who knows.

One of the few Gen-18 users left at all I suppose.

3 micahisthebest returns

Who remembers this guy? I DO! Well he has returned, made an interesting list involving TheTopTens statistics. Let's see how far he goes!

A pleasant surprise honestly. Nice to see some older veterans make a return giving it a second go

He is a cool user. He is also nice to message.

4 DarkBoi-X questions how long he'll stay on TheTopTens

His last post was made last year titled "How Long Will I Stay? ", a pretty simple rant on the site in general. Yet he is still online at times. No longer on BAND, sparsely on Discord, but still here, perhaps doing a few things like regretting his past actions and such.

Well this might as well go on here now, since he has recently lost all hope of staying on this site and is having more fun with other places at the moment. Quite peculiar in that it is a "semi-retirement" though

He's been driving this anti-TTT campaign for a long time now so most likely he's going to retire sooner or later.

5 EpicJake drops by with a return post

Basically he came back for a bit, but hadn't made much in terms of anything besides one post. I don't consider his sudden return all that surprising.

Oh yes I remember him.

6 Puga Returns

This is truly shocking. This is something I never expected. Let's see what he's got in store.

One of the most illustrious users on this site made a comeback.

Quarantine got him bored

7 Camaro6 deletes her account

So many of the more recent users are already retiring right now, and it's begging a bunch of questions.

Why are people leaving so soon after they go? Is it because they find the community to be bad? Is it because they don't find new things? I don't know what it is and I doubt I ever will but I do know that the average online expectancy barely lasts a month for several users now. It's getting dumb.

That was sad. She had good lists and improved after her downfall in early 2019. I do respect her choice though.

Didn't that already happen in 2019 or am I mixing things up?

8 Kevinsidis comes out of retirement

He retired a while back last year, and came back I think either just at the start of this year or maybe the last month or so of this year. Lately he's been rating lots of users and providing a few more bits of content here and there.

I don't dislike him nearly as much as I used to. Which is kinda saying a lot. I've also allowed him to message me recently. Very different from now I saw him a couple years of ago.

While users are deleting their accounts, it seems at least a few veterans are returning, which is good.

9 SpectralOwl deletes his account

Damn I really am gonna be the last of Gen 18 huh?

Alexa play: Another one bites the dust

Well..., can't say I'm that surprised but yeah it's peculiar.

10 thedarkone_221b deletes his account

Honestly, I don't know what else to do on this site, since pretty much everyone is disjointed as a community and honestly not many people to trust here. Plus, bad admin and overall so boring. However, I still respect the people that supported me and I'm glad to make friends with them. I won't really make another account cause of how bad this site is, but I will at least try to remember the friends I made here. So thank you and it's been fun, I guess. - TheDarkOne_221b

Well we are seeing account deletions already. How many people actually care? How many people will be jerks about it? Regardless, it was peculiar to see this guy go.

Gen-19 is just going the same way as Gen-18 at this point.

The Contenders
11 Randomator Rants about User of the Month Lists

It's a fantastic, if peculiar, rant. We all know these lists show up at the BEGINNING of the month, and Randomator gives a perfect synopsis as to why these user of the month lists are nonsense most of the time.

Kinda surprised it got as much attention and support as it did

Tbh who doesn't dislike user ranking lists at the beginning at the month?

12 Thebestuser retires

Sadly he was the only good troll around lately.

This was sad but inevitable.

Well that was unfortunate he was one of the best trolls here now gone. Could’ve been the next BTDR but he left too early in my opinion

13 NuMetalManiak and Ananya confront the Worst Things that Happened in 2020 List

This list already made shows several tragic events that may or may not be tragic, many of which are only tragic to a small group of people in the first place. Ananya had made a comment addressing a Youtube breakup and how it isn't as big a deal while NuMetalManiak (me) made a post talking about what actually belongs on the list.

Some of the items in that list were pretty stupid. Things like breakups, cancelled shows, and TikTok drama don’t belong on that list.

14 Positronwildhawk Retires

I don't think he retired... he just seems to be a long hiatus from this site, or possibly just checks in sometimes. I doubt that he's retired though. I haven't talked to him a lot in all honesty.

Why am I not believing this?

Didn't he do that already?

15 Randomator Makes a Post Announcing He Will Go on a Hiatus

Honestly, I don't blame him. This site has been dying for a while now. Nothing but a rotting carcass of what it once was. I'll also be going on a hiatus soon.

I haven't announced when it'll end though. That'll depend on a few things. Anyway, wish him the best of luck towards his hiatus. Not a sports fan but his content is well made, there's no denying that.

At least it's not retirement I suppose. Me myself though will still be active.

16 Shadomatrix Deletes His Account

I just noticed some of the comments he made on a list of mine having to username linked to it. A shame as he was the best user of Gen-20. Speaking of which, it seems this generation is going to go the same way as previous ones.

It's a shame. He was one of the greatest of Gen 20.

He was one of the best users of this gen. RIP

17 Userguy44 Deleted His Account

I'm not that surprised tbh. This isn't exactly the first account deletion in this site coming from someone like me I would know. Given how I deleted let's see... 4 main accounts, and maybe 2-4 alts. I've lost count by now. People deleting their accounts and retiring is nothing new in the grand scheme of things.

Users retiring and deleting accounts at this point is not really that surprising at all. However, I did not expect Userguy44 to delete his account out of nowhere. I thought he was just going to keep his account up when he retired.

This shocked me more than any other account deletion and retirement on TheTopTens in 2020. Userguy44 will forever be missed. He was one of my favorite TopTenners.

All my friends leaving is a reason why I don't wanna stay. I guess like 10-15 Gen-18 users remain.

You will be remembered brothers and sisters.

18 The hate for Justin Bieber has declined

Honestly Good he has been irrelevant for years and there’s worse music artists than him. About time people quit beating the dead horse

Sadly visitors still hate on him

Well, this is some good news.

19 SamanthaRosie makes a post praising Greta Thurnberg

I'm personally not a fan of her, skipping school to protest...

20 Oliversky reveals that TheOdd1sOut is his cousin

Not gonna lie, I highly doubt this. To prove it, ask your alleged cousin to make a video where he shouts you out. - Unnamed Google User Remade

I half believe and half don't I half don't because of reasons and I have to believe because they use to have the same type of profile pic

No offense to Oliversky but I think they're lying

21 TheTopTens 2/15 vote drought

I'm going to make a post on this shortly but

There's been a HUGE voter drought for some weird reason just yesterday, February 15. How come? Is there something wrong with updates now? Barely anyone received votes on their lists that day.

We have a new phenomena on 3/8, I notice that comments are on feeds but NOT VOTES! What goes on! Furthermore the homepage's feed seems to be significantly slower than usual!

I don't know about this that well, since I wasn't active during this time. Can somebody explain this to me. (Thank you in advance).

22 Aggressiveblaze Revealed Being Behind the Shadowmatrix Account

That's pretty shocking. Just as I thought Blaze was gone for good, I heard about him impersonating another user and him being behind a Gen 20's user who deleted his account...

You know I actually thought he'd be a pretty decent person before finding this out. Then again, it's hard to tell. Always watch out for who follows you I guess.

@Userguy44 also Shadomatrix/Blaze was the one who impersonated you and wrote that Godsmack haters should burn in hell while you were suspended.

23 Limeyy Deletes Her Account

I almost cried when I found out

24 Dragontree102 deletes her account

Wasn't she some rabid Madoka Magica hater or something?

Whoever that was...

25 Darthvadern Adds 1,000 Images

Yeah I've officially reached the blue achievement for images, also I'll be adding more items about me as time time goes by
