META: Your favorite MGoBlog posters of the past

Submitted by DISCUSS Man on

Saw an interesting exchange in the THE HARBAUGHING thread I started earlier and though i would open it up into its own thread for discussion.

Veteran members, lurkers-now-posters. Who are your favorite posters of the past? These can be guys that got banned, Bolivia'd or just stopped posting on the site and moved on with life unannounced.

If you have any old timey or famous threads from the past, post those also. I'm in the mood for a laugh and want to be entertained.

My favorite that amused me quite often was Section 1. Not sure what happened to him. Why is he my favorite?

It's easy. The 20 page Rich Rod wars he started in threads. Also his blatant stepping over the line into the No Politics zone that got others riled up.

The original post where the person confused "negged into oblivian" with "negged into Bolivia" has to be reprinted. Also making an appearance below is Bouje, who had one of the most hilarious meltdowns and Neg-bangs ever. I think Brian temporarily halted points because of it.

I mean THE girl (because I'm pretty sure there was only 1) that was like always on during the early haloscan days? I can't remember her handle...She was so nice. She talked to me. Nobody ever talks to me.

he's still around and has posted a bit more of late.  My recollection = he melted down over RR's treatment (as did many) and got REALLY pissy with everyone for a bit.  Seems to be back and more like his old self, which is excellent.  Dude is damn funny at times.

I came for the first coaching search but I stayed because of the boards. Thanks to every last one of you. You've all contributed something to make this a really funny, smart and informative place to hang. It's been a fun 6 1/2 years.

Not a veteran or lurker but as I look at my favorite posters new an old wondered if someone could help the uninformed what all the acronyms are. I get FWIW or others in text mode but on the blog not. Would greatly appreciate feedback to enhance the best blog on the net. Thanks.

It's funny - I've been posting here for what feels like forever, but other than the big names who fell apart spectacularly - Section1, chitownblue - I honestly don't remember most of the other flameouts.  That said, the fact that this thread is 200+ posts long and growing says quite a bit about the history of this site.

Also, when I do leave, I can only hope that my flameout will be as memorable as some of the ones people noted here.

Stephanrjking for his calming influence.  Magnus for his candor and Kate-love. Rdt because he was awesome and his dual persona outing was truly a great mgoblog moment.  Mgobrewmom because she's old school (although I doubt she's old).  Bisb.  Space Coyote (even if he does piss Brian off).   Everyone murders. The_knowledge has been well off his game lately so I left him off my list until last year's 2015 osu game.

I know Block M (with the Monsters Inc. avatar, I think) is still on the blog but haven't seen him post as much lately.  Always a good contributor to threads IMO...hope his recent scarcity is just life changes (kids, job, whatever) and not anything serious.
