Changes such as thread length and pm inbox size really made him that agitated? This whole thing makes no sense.

Dude, posts about scrambled eggs and bacon agitated him. Are you really surprised that a few changes, however minor and user-friendly they were, pissed him off? He has some serious anger issues.

This is more than just being pissed about your blog being "spammed". Never did he threaten to burn the whole thing to the ground because you two sparred over eggs.
I never understood what the deal was with you two. I heard both sides plenty times and it still makes no sense.
But he never said he'd burn it all down. Until yesterday.

So because ugie comes back he wants to torch everything he built over 12 years?

I'd like to think that the last thing that went through his head, other than the word MANY, was to wonder how the hell the 3 WISE MEN ever got the best of him.

My thought is this was his plan all along.

It's why he dragged his feet on the domain. He wanted to send one last fuck you.

He had his blog going for a while.

Saying "what he built" is not really the case, Darko. He laid the foundation. Us posters built the house.

OK but I think you know what I mean.

I suppose it makes some sense if he was trying to drive up the price on the domain name by threatening to blow it up but again, what's it really worth and what's then end game? A couple bucks?

I don't want to. He's either playing us for Fools or legit losing it. Either way he's just going to go all bigfanny on me, call me a traitor or a backstabber or something over posting at the new site... I imagine.

Eight threads (possibly more) calling out posters for various reasons indicates a great deal I think about what he was thinking over the weekend.

I am not sure he is exploding. He wants to build something new. The name and logo will definitely change.

Dude he obviously lost his shit this weekend. I mean between the posts and the reneged on the deal over some very minor control issues he was publicly losing his composure. He said he would rather see it all burned to the ground than see the changes take effect in essence.


The whole meltdown instantly reminded me of this:

Yeah, I did. Just one more thing that sucks over here under new management. I wish things could go back to the way they used to be...when we just posted messages to a message board.

If it was an act, it was stupid and not funny. If its not an act, the guy needs some help.

Agreed. As a strong defender of bigfan over the last 10 years and especially over the last several months I find this bizarre and indefensible. Not that anyone gives a fuck what I think but that's the way I feel.

Even by bigfan standards, a work makes no sense. Why would he deliberately fuck with and piss off dozens of posters who always supported him no matter what like Darko, Doug, dolphin, Ken, Spaulding, etc. Everyone was annoyed as fuck about the blowup. Nobody was entertained.

As I said privately assuming bigfan wasn't losing his mind a work is the only thing that made sense. Nas said bigfan wanted the new guys to come off as heroes, which they are having saved the board from certain annihilation. The other guys have been oddly silent about it.
Talking over the phone to several guys last night (or xbox chat whatever) it was decided seemingly that bigfan has been losing it over the last couple years and might have been more of a heel all along than I was willing to admit.
As I've said before bigfan was very supportive of my bands and work and my friends bands... it just seemed odd the goings on over the last 72 hours.

vegan wants to be like the cool kids and just go by an acronym. He forgot he has to leave the numbers off also.
