META: Looking to get banned from MGoBlog?

This thread is a public service announcement to any of those MGoReaders that are looking for a sure-fire way to get to Bolivian . . . Inasfar as this moderator is concerned, the fastest and easiest way to get banned from the site (if I have any say in the matter) is to "out" a fellow member of the community or other nameless celebrity/personality. 

Do not - I repeat - DO NOT post any personal information about a fellow MGoMember without prior written approval. 

References to fellow readers are acceptable (as long as it is positive and not argument-inducing). For example:  "Lloyd Brady is awesome" OR "Profitgoblue is extremely intelligent" OR "StephenRKass has a great username." (oops!)

But consider yourself forewarned:  If I see or if anyone notifies us in the Moderator Action Sticky (link at top of page) that you are "outing" a fellow member, I will do everything in my power to make sure that you are not able to post again.

Thank you, and have a nice day.

I've always wondered where

I've always wondered where the term asshat came from. It seems like it's relatively new to the vernacular. And it doesn't seem like it's a literal term - a hat on an ass doesn't have any derogatory  meaning as far as I can tell. Any ideas?

why is that shocking?

it's shocking that a member of a UM board didn't use logic skills and posted user info of a board mainstay? i know plenty of 19 yr olds who would think they were doing something positive so people could FB the kid, etc.  it's not like they posted bong photos or something.

Both photos would be bad, unless it is a dong which must  be seen  to be believed.

I second this, he had less than 10 pts if I remember, probably did not know the protocol.  Heck if I had not read two weeks ago the LB did not want his name associated with _______Awesomeness, I might have made a similar mistake.

If this is indeed what happened, I hope the offending user didn't get permabanned.  While I probably would have hesitated in doing this, it seems as if this was something meant to be good in nature that got carried away, much like the Lloyd Brady meme in the first place.

That being said, I'm stupid for having my name in my username.  Oh well, none of you crazy people better get any ideas...

The name of his forefathers

He comes from a long and proud line of Bwgrudts, such as Bwgrudt the 1412th who played a key role in the sack of Rome.

Exactly

As you can tell by my name (it's French, of course), we have had a running feud with the Bwgrudts for generations.  I am willing, however, to let bygones be bygones.

Or did he search it out and include it?  Because while asshatty either way, putting stuff up on Facebook is hardly an attempt at keeping your privacy....

I know "Lloyd Brady" his name is Lloyd Brady, this is his Facebook. I played sports with Lloyd Brady growing up and he graduated from Lloyd Brady Central HS.

because there was a rumor that CRAIG JAMES KILLED FIVE HOOKERS WHILE AT SMU and although that rumor is unfounded, he had his name changed to Lloyd Brady in order to avoid scandal

Go ahead and make fun/criticize

I felt it was an important point to get across. Some might not, but I did and I thought it needed to be said. Privacy is very important to the integrity of the Board, in my opinion. Disagree, criticize, make fun, whatever - at the end of the day it's Brian's site and I'm just trying to help. But you know all this.

the criticism is due to the tone

i'm not trying to bash or even be a dick - my point was solely the fact his post seems self-gratifying BECAUSE URTEHLAYINDOWNTHALAWWWWW. hell, as i acknowledged elsewhere, i prob did the same thing. but i also got bitchslapped for it rather publicly. i think i was way more enjoyable as a mod when i didn't note what rules could get people in trouble, etc, and just, you know, did it. with a post like this, it would need to have happened 8-10x. if it was one dumb person, edit/delete the content and make a note on the original thread. but this post just screamed how YOUCARRYTEHBIGSTIX

i successfully put two lolcat comments into this response. i win at nothing.

Did you know he donated through Beveled Guilt? He's an asshole and probably someone you'd want to punch in the face after 5 minutes of meeting him. I thought you were a dick as a mod but I'd take you over profit any day of the week. Self gratification is his MO. He looks in a mirror when he jerks off.

I'm kind of joking. The other

I'm kind of joking. The other part that nobody has stated is that Brian was trying to out McFarlin a couple years ago. Anyway, you could have done this in a different way so you didn't seem like a prick. My comments are extremly rude but I realize that. I don't think you realize what you're posting at times and how you come off. I don't really care who the mods are but you seem like you want everyone to know you're one and that you have power over them. Just make sure people don't flame and ban the ones that do it constantly. What other kind of responsibilities are there?

Point taken

Honestly, my tone was probably kind of lame but I got upset about the Lloyd Brady matter and posted in quasi-anger. That's why it read poorly, I guess. But that was not my intention - I simply meant to make the point that was made in a firm way because that type of thing is really not cool. Some that get a little too personal need to be reminded, I think. Nevertheless, the tone was less than stellar and for that I'll apologize.

Don't disagree

Don't disagree with your post, but, as said before:

  1. Sometimes you need to educate idiot posters (i.e.,. the one referenced above,) who don't have malevolent intent.
  2. What people post about themselves is fair game. Like idiot usernames (looking at self.)
  3. A certain amount of personal stuff is inocuous (like what six zero covers in his famous mgoposter interviews over at the HOF.) You prob. should add Ace & Heiko to this.
  4. A select few (Brian, TomVH) are already in the public sphere, and as such, there is a fair amount of "public" info and ID already up.

So I'm curious . . . how many of you muckety mucks have multiple personas on mgoblog? I'm wondering if Brian or TomVH sign in under a different username on occasion, kind of like the Emo guy did.

What is personal significance of your avatar?

So, I've wondered about the significance of your avatar, profitgoblue. Is this where you work? Where you aspire to work? A symbol of the profit motive?

A more generic question is about mods in general. I don't ask questions about mgouser personal lives. I don't need sordid details of debauchery, city of residence, student status, etc.. But you aren't listed in six zero's bio sketches. With you and other mods and users up in the stratospheric point realm (above 10,000, say) a bit of a sketch would be interesting.

A completely different thing, which some engineer should be able to do, would be to tabulate mgouser data. Possible data points of interest:

  • Current place of residence, (i.e., AA, Detroit Metro, Michigan, Chicago, NY, International, etc.)
  • Age
  • Gender
  • Income?
  • Alumni Status (Student, alum, related to alum, Michigan resident, other.)
  • Major, if went to UofM.
  • mgoblog usage habits.

I wouldn't want to know the details for any one user, but it would be interesting to know where users are from (i.e., 30% are current UM students, 40% are currently in AA, 40% are between 15 & 20 years of age, 98% are male, 75% majored in engineering, etc., etc.)

Edit:  there also is some amount of morbid interest in what causes someone to go Bolivian. I just noticed a user with negative 9,000 some points. That's quite a dubious achievement!

The reality is that this really should be an off-season project. But it would be interesting, nonetheless. I know there are enough computer geeks in the mgouser pool who could put something like this together easily enough.

Now, To Be Fair...

....my real first name is in my signature line. That little tidbit of information is something I really don't mind sharing. Hell, growing up "Lorne", I heard so many mispronunciations that, to this day, I respond to perhaps thirty variations because apparently "Lorne" is tonal in nature and has dozens of valid pronunciations, so in a sense my name is symbolic...of a general American narrowness about naming one's children.

I even gave up my position and employer back in  June when there were numerous power outages in Ann Arbor, which I don't mind doing because it was a strange, half-witted public service.

Boys, boys, boys.

It's pretty much standard operating procedure on most boards that I've been on that if you reveal personal information about other posters that is not readily available on that board, you're going to get banhammered.

And, given the world today, if I have to explain to you why, well, you probably shouldn't be running around on message boards in the first place.

This probably means I'll have to stop calling Tater by his first name in an attempt to finally get him to respond and I'll have to stop calling 03 Blue 07 or whatever his name is by his first name in order to get him to realize that we actually know each other in real life and he doesn't hate me as much as he hates my MGoBlog Persona.

 

EDIT: Does anyone remember when Brian published McFarlin's full name, email address, and phone number?  That was entertaining, people even prank called his mom.  Would he have gotten banned under the ProfitGoBlue rule?  Or would he get an exemption as owner/operator?

welll...

not that it needs explaining, posting pictures and watch threads are in good nature and fun, something even an everyday person would not really mind, given the good nature in which they were posted and the fun "game" it caused, so much that the kid even made shirts about it but when you cross the line with the personal information that may or may not be the same as the mgomeme information without thier permission, thats not so good.

 

if you cant see why its not cool to out someones personal identity without them consenting, i dont know if even that explaination would help. if they wanted links to thier fb page posted on the boards or everbody to know thier real name and where they lived, they would post it.

Craig James was at a Civil War re-enactment?  And why would he want 5 Hookers?  It seems 1 Grant would suffice although that might be overkill (for his own troops).
