I'm lost as well. I'm sure it's been discussed on another thread somewhere but can somebody please summarize why these posters are no longer around? I haven't read anything recently by any of the vanquished that stood out as offensive or ban-worthy. What happened? (seriously)

They're no longer around by choice. Speeps , Keeping Score were admonished about posting things they were asked not to post in the original Mcnugget thread and some posts were deleted as a result. They have chosen not to post since. Kid Cairo wasn't involved in this but he has gone silent as well. Krazy Ivan came back for a day and did some posting then announced he was taking a break too. Imessedup 17 is permabanned for allegedly opening a chat room without authorization . I think that about covers it.

Are you getting cool PM's b/c you're to trot or are they posting under long dormant accounts?

Perfect spot for a West Wing quote.. but Speeps is gone

I don't understand what you're saying.

Who hasn't gone silent? Is it who we all think it is? And if "they" haven't gone silent....what are they saying? Where are they saying it? Because they sure as hell aren't sayin' jack crap on here because BigFan chased the ENTIRE Crew/ISOP off like a bunch of wieners.

they are imbedded...deep inside keeping score

Correct.

This place is far from perfect but it's more fun than not.

I posted about this last year, All things considered, Big Fan runs a pretty loose ship here compared to other message boards, new ones included . Just like nobody forces me to listen to B&B and get upset, nobody is forcing anyone to post here. Don't like the way things are run? you hold the ultimate trump card. Don't post. Place will move on just fine without you.Though personally I don't know how ill go about my day anymore without homo erotic innuendo and lack of Taylor Swift photos.

The life of the board always seems to go in waves. It is disappointing that with all that is going on in
Chicago sports now with the Bulls and Hawks starting back up and Bears in a critical week in the season
that some of the more vocal posters are absent. I don't try to understand the drama and/or politics that
shape this strange little world. I hope that we see some of the MIA guys back in time. I still enjoy checking
in at different times during the day to break up the monotony of work.

God this type of post has gotten way beyond old.

If everything will move along just fine (which it likely will), then follow your own suggestion and "don't post". Not one person you won't actually refer to directly (so brave) has any interest in whether brogue approves of their action/inaction.

Hey Don, go fuck yourself. Direct enough for you big guy? You've become one of the biggest sanctimonious asshats on the board lately, making pronouncements from waaaay up high on your throne on what passes for "good' around here. Get the fuck over yourself.

Wow, save some of those tampons in the other thread for your sore little pussy.

What are you, the new board defender? What's that pay? Because it'd have to be a lot, I figure, to cover for the embarrassment of the self-appointed board white knight; I gather the small codpiece as part of the uniform won't present much of a problem.

And go fuck yourself, you little nobody. Nobody forces you to read my posts either, you mouthy asswipe.

You're the one that decided to carry the banner; nobody asked you. Nobody clearly gave a shit what you apparently wrote the first time, let alone this banal reiteration.

It's you who needs to get over yourself, dipshit.

Oh, I'm sorry ... I forgot you were actually here ... the original board white knight agrees, so I clearly must be wrong.

I like Don Tiny but I also fear him. He's like CSFMB Mafia.

Man, Board Champion Don Tiny to t he rescue! You tell em Don, you tell em how to post and what to post!

Just when I think you can't descend farther into total fuckhead status.....I see your above posts. But let me guess, you have me on ignore, right? Have fun reading my post amyways and making comments about it.

Just because bigfan runs a "fairly loose ship" here doesn't mean we have to agree with everything he says, or that we can't question why posts are deleted and why people are banned.

You're also kidding yourself if you don't believe that the 'rules' have gotten much tighter over the last several months, with clear cases of "do as I say not as I do" with regards to certain things.
