Which username makes you 'click' when you see "Last post by _____"

[Teller]

You get to work. You get your coffee. You settle into your chair. You scan the Tailgate. (Let's be honest, you don't IMMEDIATELY start working.) Nothing in particular catches your eye as far as thread topics go. But then....

You see in the "last post by" column, someone's screen name. You find yourself unable to resist the need to click the thread and see what that person had to say.


Who is he/she?

[PokerPacker]

Jumbo. Somebody just had their brain served to them on a plate.

[Koolblue13]

Bang and Jumbo in the Tailgate

Conn, NCL and Jumbo (usually for comical reasons) in the Stadium. There are a few others too.

Probably a few other randoms, like Henry or Yusuf.

It occasionally depends on the topic.

[RVAbrendan]

It's gotta be twa.

[Koolblue13]

Here is a question, who's posts can be harder to read. Thiebear or Jumbo? :D

[Forehead]

No specific poster, I just look to see which threads have been locked so I can see who ****ed up. Usually the posts leading up to it are entertaining.

Here is a question, who's posts can be harder to read. Thiebear or Jumbo? :D

Jumbo's. If it wasn't for the typos, I'd be convinced that he looks up complicated phrases on the Internet or out of books and cuts/pastes them into the middle of his missives just to give them a little extra kick.:ols:

[spjunkies]

I'm more of a topic person but I'm always a fan of threads made by China.

[renaissance]

Here is a question, who's posts can be harder to read. Thiebear or Jumbo? :D

Thiebear. His posts have gotten much more readable, though.

With Jumbo sometimes I don't think there is anything to understand. He's like a kid who was stuck in silent timeout all day and he gets on the bus and just says everything humanly possible.

[Jumbo]

there's many, but off the top of my head re: current regulars (and very limited so no one take anything from that):

zoony
TK
Bang
Predicto
Corcaigh
Techboy
Larry
Kilmer17
Lady Skins Fan
ASF
alexy
twa
China
Yusuf
PCS
KB13
skinsmarydu

and occasionally, h_h :evilg: :pfft:

There's many more ;), but that's enough participation for now. :)

[Predicto]

zoony, Jumbo, TK and PCS.

I used to care about Henry. :)

<<< kiss-ass

[SWFLSkins]

Cmon- It's TK for the pure pwnage. Jumbo for the smart pwnage, hitman, yourself, Rd421, Bang, submitted, ASF(for the stats) -hell I love reading all you guys.

[Forehead]

Here is a question, who's posts can be harder to read. Thiebear or Jumbo? :D

Duplicate

[mistertim]

Yeah I'll agree on Jumbo as well. Either its a first row viewing of someone being verbally eviscerated in the nicest way possible or some long rambling thing that I read anyway. China always has something interesting, and usually disgusting or bizarre, up his sleeve.

It also depends on the subject of the thread. If it is something I've been engaged in or am interested in as we have experts in many fields here and its always good to read what their take is on it. Predicto and LKB for Constitutional law stuff, for example. Or them just for the lulz.

Oh and any time Predicto and HH or twa are getting into it. That stuff I can't avoid. It's like a soap opera addiction.


EDIT: I am SO taking Jumbo off of my list since I'm not on his. *takes his ball and goes home*

[TheDane]

Art and Die Hard.

[Predicto]

Art made me close my browser. :)

[twa]

I usually click on all of them....probably DJTJ if I had to pick one, or peter

[Teller]

I wasn't going to give him the satisfaction of being the first to say it, but in the Tailgate, for me, it's Jumbo by a wide margin. Predicto, Tj, JMS, twa, Larry, Major Harris, KB, KH and a couple of others are on that second tier. But if Jumbo posts, I read. He's like E.F. Hutton that way. :ols:

In the stadium, it's bulldog, Kdawg, and HOF44. Each one of those guys has forgotten more about football than I'll EVER know.

[Koolblue13]

I'd add Predicto and Corcaigh too.

btw, how do you pronounce corcaigh? Is it like cocaine with an "R", because that's how I usually read it. Or is it more like Corky?

Yeah, Kdawg in the Stadium is like Jumbo or Bang for me in the Tailgate.

I think I find Bang saying what I'm trying to say more often than not and doing a much better job of it, then I ever could.

[Teller]

JMS is pretty tempting too. He's such a damned-intelligent guy, and his posts are well-constructed. But his spelling and grammar at times can be, well, a little rough. When JMS posts, it's like an incredibly beautiful trainwreck. :ols:

---------- Post added July-11th-2012 at 04:17 PM ----------

CORK-eye.

I looked it up ages ago. Refers to an area in Ireland, IIRC.

How bout ixcuincle? Same question.

It's not a simple answer.:)

FOr a small island there are many dialects. If you are from Cork itself, you would pronounce the ig at the end. So Kor-kig.

If you are from the north, closer to Kor-Kee. And the West, Kor-kuh.

[lovetoaster]

There are a few, but I am going to go with LKB and Bang. Most of the regulars in the MMA thread (like 98QBKiller, StillUnknown and d0ublestr0ker0ll) as well.

[Koolblue13]

elkabong and boof are both pretty right on as well.

Cork- eye? I guess it's better than Corky.

[Jumbo]

Jumbo's. If it wasn't for the typos, I'd be convinced that he looks up complicated phrases on the Internet or out of books and cuts/pastes them into the middle of his missives just to give them a little extra kick.:ols:

I keep meaning to write on this matter in here (as someone who has written extensively in several venues) and often remind folks that I have all the keyboard skills of the typical soap dish. I edit a zillion times. Those long, serious (or as serious as I get here ;)) posts are really a labor and reflects my commitment to participation in this community. I am very active in the stadium too---definitely the most active staff member (most of the time) in both forums with PCS & zoony next. I also make far more short ones and funny ones than the other type, but people see what they want, usually in service to their own inner drives---the psychology is extremely strong in me :pfft:.

But I will admit, loving language as I do and being communications modes and theory are one of my specialties professionally, I do just have fun with it and sometimes use it like I play legos with my nieces (they're very creative and can get quite elaborate).

I think there is actually a lot more pretentiousness and hiding self-limitations in the "simplicity is wisdom" or "that's just wordy" stuff I often see some people toss about (whether in reference to me or in other matters). Every now and then, it's an accurate castigation. Most of the time I see it, here or elsewhere, it's not and its more about reflective of an issue in the commentator than their target.

I can be quite clear and simple and am just that on here quite often. But I rarely see evidence that the always-simple writer who yells "wordy" can show relevant complexity, detail, and meaningful naunce in their efforts. ;)

And ren is kinda right too, in her post. i do unwind a lot here, during almost every work day. Per the Mr. lonely song (loved it) zoony and TK have the best picture of my life overall of anyone on ES and they know the most about my schedule and all I do---it's almost like science fiction, i kid you not. And I even sleep too.

And I knew I'd need to add right way--which is why I hate such lists--and still sticking just with currently active regs

mistertim, DjTj (big time) SHF, PokerPacker, prosperity, SWFLskins...and I can't win so I'm quitting :ols:

Jeebus--and HENRY....how did I forget Henry....sigh..and JMS, PeterMP, aRedskin...please stop me...I haven't even touched all the Old Guard who still post occasionally (Die Hard, The Dane, Oldfan, etc)

[Teller]

So JMS is the Jackson Pollock of The Tailgate.

I had to google, but good call. :ols:

[pjfootballer]

[MLSKINS]

I guess for me it's the Mods, but for the most part, I just click on the threads that I was the most active in...

[pjfootballer]

How bout ixcuincle? Same question.

I pronounce it "icks-uncle."

[TD_washingtonredskins]

I usually like to read what LKB has to say about things. When it comes to the baseball threads though, it's Doyler, MattFancy, and Hersh. Go O's.

[Predicto]

I pronounce it "icks-uncle."

Hmmm... I had it as "izuu-nclay"

[mistertim]

Why don't we just agree to call him Frank? It's a nice name. Richard Nixon's got a hedgehog called Frank.

[China]

Jumbo's. If it wasn't for the typos, I'd be convinced that he looks up complicated phrases on the Internet or out of books and cuts/pastes them into the middle of his missives just to give them a little extra kick.:ols:

[Jumbo]

Go ahead. Take your best shots. :pfft::ols:

[Hitman21ST]

I'll click on it for Jumbo, KDawg, h_h, predicto, ConnSkins, and a few others, but I can't think straight right now - my son's literally been screaming in my ear for the past 5 minutes, and I think he might have burst an eardrum :silly:

Was it bad that I was hoping to see my name? :ols:

[Jumbo]

I was sticking to a more tailgate focus, but you're one of many I look for in the Stadium, Hitman. :)

[TK]

Here is a question, who's posts can be harder to read. Thiebear or Jumbo? :D

I'll let you in on something. :)

Everytime Jumbo posts, it's an intelligence test to see if you actually understand what he's a tually saying or if you're so dim, you're worn out by big words & long sentences.

And if you didn't know that by now then you failed a long, long time ago.:)

I think that's why others whether departed on their own or with a lil help, find refuge on other boards where they can take their likemindedness to make each other all fell better about theirselves while trying to run him down for being more intelligent then they are, showing them that the issue is in their comprehension, but they're still to dim to even see that. :)

[PokerPacker]

I've said it before and I'll say it again: I like to think of him as our resident prolix patron of palaver and personification of profuse pleonasm.

poppycock!

[Forehead]

Go ahead. Take your best shots. :pfft::ols:

See, though I couldn't tell in your reply if you were mad at me or not, my posts are always made with love. China though, what he wrote about you was just downright mean.;)

[Koolblue13]

I pronounce it "icks-uncle."

Sweet Jebus, I never would have guessed that :ols: It's so simple.

Peter and SHF absolutely as well.

The rate I'm going, by midnight I should have all 70,000 something users names written in this thread. Well, except for about 3 of y'all. :)

You're one of the guys been here a long time and even when I have to 'mod" you, I love ya. :ols:

China is mean, plus I made the tragic mistake of giving him pictorial evidence that undermines me in every way, even if it is from when I was 16 and there was a girl (and underage drinking--don't do that btw ;)) influencing me.

I'm not mean, I'm nefarious. :)

[FSUSkins24]

Jumbo or Bang.

Jumbo's posts are usually very fun to read (even if I have to re-read sentences), or he's laying the hammer down.

Bang, because he's one of those guys that has a great sense of humor, but when it's time to get serious he is always dead on and says it in a way that nobody else seems to be able to.

I will on occasion check out what ConnSkins or NLC have to say because I find myself often agreeing with their sentiments.

Edit: I left off Dan T on the first tier. I am convinced that picture of Kerriggins is what he actually looks like, which adds to it.

[Dan T.]

So JMS is the Jackson Pollock of The Tailgate.

More like the Cliff Clavin of the Tailgate.

[Gibbs Hog Heaven]

Westbrook36

That just had me literally LOL.

Hail.

[Jumbo]

NLC has quickly become one of the Great Whites in the stadium. Boy does get a tad feisty at times. :D

[deejaydana]

when it came to all things/threads NBA-related it was RoyallyPwned. R.I.P.

[STBonecrusher21]

NLC.

He often says things that I'd probably say, allowing me to be more of the reader these days. Though if it were me, I'd use one or two different words that would get me in trouble. NLC is pretty good at getting that tone across without using those words and getting in trouble. Even though in some posts I feel he's right on the verge, then it calms down. :ols:

I like Conn too. mistertim. NC21 though he doesn't seem as active anymore. Quite a few more as well.

[Predicto]

Actually, it is an intelligence test. Jumbo sprays gallons of absolute bullcrap across the screen so he can see which morons will pretend that the post made sense to them, then he and the mods PM each other and giggle.

It's kind of like "The Emperor's New Clothes" for the digital age.

[DieselPwr44]

Used to be Art, especially if there was a brave enough Cowboy fan involved but since Art's no longer around, I love to read Bang's Danny Smith's rants, because I agree with him. lol

Oldfan in any QB thread because he's like the Riley Martin of QB philosophy/theory.

Zoony's "Places I've been rants" ranks right up there too......

[Mr. Sinister]

LKB because of his knowledge on a number of broad ranging topics, and he occasionally says some of the most off the wall stuff that makes you burst out laughing

And Jumbo, for most of the reasons already mentioned :ols:. He gives off a Gary Busey/Robin Williams vibe in some of his posts, which makes think that deep down, he thoroughly enjoys making fun of people on here. That all changes when he does it to you though, lol.

[Sticksboi05]

Jumbo. Let's see, H_H is fun to talk baseball with. There are a lot. Predicto. Bang. SHF when he post in the Capitals thread. Bang especially in music threads because he knows good music.

[KAOSkins]

you, predicto, twa, destino, burg, lkb, djtj, jumbo. Any last post if the thread is interesting, long and new to me, screw reading all the way through 'em. I just go back and edit when my lack of knowledge about the discussion makes me post something stupid. :D Sometimes I do that after I read posts after mine too.

[War Paint]

Lavar Leap, due to the inside scoop on something related to the Skins.

[Burgold]

I used to be a contender... mentioned at least once in these kinds of threads :kickcan:

There's a range of people I like to click on... some for humor, others for wisdom, still a few for outrage or exasperation, and of course one for outright knowledge.

I actually really like PeterMP's posts in most of the science based topics. Predicto, and DJTJ for law. HH, Bang, and China for humor. Larry and Gbear for passion and idealism. Kilmer for gamesmanship and outrage. Deejaydana and aRedskin for persistance... Techboy and Asbury for their earnest and educated loving form of faith and their atheist adversaries... and far too many others too mention.

I also enjoy several I miss like Headexplode, Baculus, Om, chomerics, codeorama, Blondie, the inmate running the assylum, Bubba, and a few of other fellows who have passed on.

So many interesting and thought engaging thoughts have been expressed here... not to mention gut busting absurdities.

[Koolblue13]

Sorry, poorly constructed sentence... Inmate, Bubba, one dollar, royally pwned, and a few others have unfortunately died. Blondie I think just got to busy. Others went away or to different sites or visit infrequently.

I didn't know about inmate, the rest was just a joke.

This isn't just a board, it's a true community. Very cool. Hard to explain to other people. There really is no way to do it.

I like when I'm having a conversation about something important with somebody and they ask how I know "all this" and I reply "a Redskins message board". :ols:

[Renegade7]

Oldskool, because we used to get into it back in the day, but it was cool. EA, Ghost, and Pokerpacker because I remember them being around as teenagers like me before there were a lot more young posters.

Bang always keeps it gully, and I miss Art and Blondie as well. I remember both of them reaching out when I was younger and going thru ****, and it's a big reason I'm still posting here today. I'm sure they're doing well where ever they are right now, they were good people.

Maybe I'm misremembering. Was it inmate or running with scissors? I thought it was inmate.

[abdcskins]

Tenjikuronin.

[Mr. Sinister]

Tenjikuronin.

I haven't seen that guy in a very long time...

[Bang]

Anyone who's name I see making a post after I told everyone why they were wrong

the nerve of some people! :D


Actually, there really isn't any set names.. it depends on the topic.
I'm one of the weirdies who likes it when Larry and Kilmer or TWA get going,, because I can get a lot of solid opinion and billious bluster from both sides of an issue.
It's too bad a lot of our conservative contiongency have split, because we don't get as wide a spectrum. So i'm glad for those who stick it out, even if I call them names sometimes.

I like reading HH because I think he's one of the more honest people on here. He may not always have it right, but he'll definitely try like hell to get it right, even if it means listening to someone else, which is a skill few have. I believe HH tries to understand the other guy's opinion.

I like reading ASF because even though we're similar, there's a big difference in the faith dept., and I appreciate listening to the views of someone on that side of that fence who seems genuine and uses common sense..
I like theBlueFood because he's studying to be a journalist, and it's interesting to watch his thoughts develop along the issues.
I like Predicto, because I think he may be the smartest person on the board, even though Jumbo tries like hell. ;)
Predicto is a dyed in the wool lefty, and even though he hardly ever waivers from that position, typically his arguments come down with a ton of sense behind them, and not just ideological thinking. I give his opinions a lot of weight.
I like Destino, because for a long time I got him confused with Predicto, and some of it rubbed off, I guess.
I read Thinking Skins posts.. i may not always agree. but he is a sharp guy and he can provoke some good thought.

I like Navy Dave.
There. I said it. He may be way out in right field when it comes to politics, but he's a-ok everywhere else. And besides, this is supposed to be "who do you read if you see their name as having posted last" and you know if his name is up, everyone goes to see just what kind of trainwreck that it might be, right?
(I'm friends with him on facebook (I think .. it must be him. HAS to be. ) I don't think ANYONE lives so well. He's ALWAYS at the game. Nats game every other night, Redskins game every week, Wizards games, Caps games, he's there, and smiling like the cat. Hell, if there's ANY of you I'd suck up to so i could hang out for a week... well it's none of you godless immoral heathen libtards, i can tell you that. ;) ;)

I like LadySkinsFan, especially in certain topics when she steps in and sets some guy straight.... so to speak. I always get a kick out of that, especially with those who don't know her.

But in all honesty,, I like most all of you. And I read most all of what you've got to say in the topics that interest me. Some of you talk way over my head (Peter, I'm looking at you) but I try and keep up and maybe learn a thing or two.


And furthermore, Danny Smith must be fired.

~Bang

[HOF44]

Nobody for Mickilano?? I always check his out.

TK to see who's ass is getting his boot.
PCS cause he always makes sense.
Jumbo for sig ideas and it's never a complete day without hitting the dictionary.
Henry because I see him as level headed and in the middle on most things.
Diehard because you never know what kinda fireworks you're gonna get.
Art to see him verbally KO people.
EA cause he always interests me,
Bang tells it like he see's it no sugar coating.
HH cause you never know when he might mix up is posts and him private messages. ;)
Predicto for all thing law and liberal, and skinny chick pics.
TWA he always makes me lol.
Kilmer, used to make me mad till I figured out that was the point. :ols:
Kdawg for football knowledge enhancement.
DJTJ dude is just straight up smart.
Mcsluggo to seem my economic hunches are fantasy or reality.
Zoony for smoking/grilling stuff.
Huly and Pez for tailgating info.
TechBoy and ASF, Gods duo.
And lots lots more, I will amend later

[Bang]

The stadium is a whole different list.

KDawg definitely lays the X and O insight. That's Must See TV there.


I always read what Mickalino writes, but he's disappeared. It's too bad. He's definitely one of the more interesting characters who hang out here.

Bang, that was a tremendous post. I appreciate making the "kind words from Bang" list. I think you know well that you're someone for whom I have a great deal of respect. And when you notice that I do at least TRY to consider perspectives other than my own (and usually fail) it means a lot.

Also, I frequently type "lol" or use this ---> :ols:

...but when I read the "And furthermore..." line, I sprained three well-hidden obliques cackling. :ols:

[Burgold]

Good on you man. I like your posts when I can understand them.

And :ols: at Burgolds MF voice.

Hey, Morgan came over to me last week for some tips on voice overs. I had to charge him extra. His diction was so poor and he lacks that certain resonance us barely D level radio personalities master.

:pfft:

[deejaydana]

Hubbs gets a shout out for me because his posts I find are both well worded and well reasoned (even if I don't always agree with them). For music related threads Bang/Jumbo/Califan/Elkabong really bring some well above average views and information that---for a fellow music lover---I always enjoy.

..... I always read what Mickalino writes, but he's disappeared. It's too bad. He's definitely one of the more interesting characters who hang out here.

~Bang

Mick's thread last year when he took 'covert' pics of a whole host of woman at his local Walmart to prove the hottest girls shopped there is my single all time favorite thread. The fact the he genuinely couldn't see what he'd done wrong was pure Mickalino and just added to a wonderful late Sunday afternoon when I was literally crying laughing at the absurdity of it all.

Hail.

I actually thought the jab at deejaydana's post was better.

I read it like I was selecting threads via phone menu:

"For Redskins threads, press 1."
"For Capitals threads, press 2."
"For China threads, press 3."
"For music threads, Bang/Jumbo."

[SpacePenguin]

Hmm, for the Stadium, Kdawg, CS26, jflow, hitman, moondog, SWFLSkins, NLC.

For the tailgate, SnyderShrugged, GibbsHogHeaven,CurseReversed,Hubbs, Predicto,China for his threads and Larry just for the eyeroll factor.

In both the tailgate and stadium, Jumbo's posts are a highlight to me. Half the time they're rather short and funny, and the other half of the time they're giant blocks of text encoded in obscure words. It's almost like another language. Either stands out from the crowd enough to gather attention, as this thread is proving..His posts that precede bans are usually my favorite, maybe I'm a bad person ;p

[Jumbo]

I forgot about deejaydana too..i admire the guy does his best to fight that sometimes rising gorge the lefties bring up in him :ols:...and he really is perseverant...i likewise find him very informative on music and killer on his book selections. sometimes he's dowright reasonable! :D and he does have a brain in his head.

and...one big one I need to add...been a fave of mine since day one when we almost lost her to the compulsive leg-humper contingent...she who is now known as Special K. :cool:

[SWFLSkins]

I can be quite clear and simple and am just that on here quite often. But I rarely see evidence that the always-simple writer who yells "wordy" can show relevant complexity, detail, and meaningful naunce in their efforts. ;)

Per the Mr. lonely song (loved it) zoony and TK have the best picture of my life overall of anyone on ES and they know the most about my schedule and all I do---it's almost like science fiction, i kid you not. And I even sleep too.

And I knew I'd need to add right way--which is why I hate such lists--and still sticking just with currently active regs

mistertim, DjTj (big time) SHF, PokerPacker, prosperity, SWFLskins...and I can't win so I'm quitting :ols:

Jeebus--and HENRY....how did I forget Henry....sigh..and JMS, PeterMP, aRedskin...please stop me...I haven't even touched all the Old Guard who still post occasionally (Die Hard, The Dane, Oldfan, etc)

Get it all in, breath deeply and exhale before it's over and you get the honor to come back as a four leafed clover.

Actually, it is an intelligence test. Jumbo sprays gallons of absolute bullcrap across the screen so he can see which morons will pretend that the post made sense to them, then he and the mods PM each other and giggle.

It's kind of like "The Emperor's New Clothes" for the digital age.

tailgate it depends on the topic.Jumbo is a good check in, so is Bang. Koolblue I know elsewhere besides ES, so I'll always see what he has to say.

[deejaydana]

I didn't see him mentioned but what ever happened to Mickalino? Always seemed liked a really down to Earth guy.

I'm not going to post names for fear of leaving some people off and swelling the heads of others. But I'll give one shoutout to a guy who hasn't been around in awhile.

I don't remember any specific thing he ever posted, just that I would bust a gut when his screen name popped up.

[SAli457180]

For me it's Tenjikuronin as somebody else already said in a previous post and it used to be Royallypwned (RIP)

[Jumbo]

I liked Mick, but he was one of the weirdest cats to ever post here---and I'm avoiding making a more clinical comment. :)

I keep trying to avoid mentioning people who are primarily stadium-dwelling or more "in the past" because it doesn't really fit the OP and the "listing of faves" would truly never be done. But I agree with everyone The Dane mentioned (and he's a psoter I like a lot) and i used to love GhostofNibbsMcPimpin in either main forum and the eagles fan who posted in all three forums but mainly in ATN (can't believe I can't think of his name) that TK used to mess with all the time and was a true ES mainstay for years. He had some serious struggles with booze that he was very open about here and I hope he's doing ok.

AJSkins was a guy really good to have gone, but he was an interesting and volatile specimen. I don't feel comfy with saying what I actually think of his cognitive state during his manifestation here. I do miss the original MassSkinsFan (so does TK) though I know zoony couldn't stand him half the time. :ols:

I am half-tempted, now that we're well into this kick, to examine the negative side in some thread about guys not missed at all (pretty much in my case either multiple rule-violators and *******s and also really brought the level of forum discussion way down) but there's no productive outcome in that direction. Though the mods talk about that sort of thing among themselves when it's relevant ;) (like when it's "going down").

[grhqofb5]

I still look for MassSkinsFan.... what a loss.

[Jumbo]

As someone noted earlier (and the mods by default would have the best picture of this dynamic) some poster (or several) may mention how they miss so and so while many others will have an entirely different view on that member that they may not reveal every time the dude's brought up.

I would think it's kind of obvious why someone may mention some they miss randomly or in a thread like this, while people who "hated" the poster will just be quiet. On the PM, e-mail, reported posts, and user notes side (in addition to openly posted forum content), there is a lot more material available to staff to add to viewing such matters in a larger context (just as a matter of potential interest for anyone).

[zoony]

I do miss the original MassSkinsFan (so does TK) though I know zoony couldn't stand him half the time. :ols:



Meh, he wasn't bad, just a garden variety attention whore. ES never failed to scratch his itch. He could come on here and throw a pity party for himself and hundreds of strangers would feel sorry for him....other times he'd blatantly troll and hundreds would argue. But he always got what he wanted

Problem is, he had to keep pushing the envelope to keep h is act fresh. When he encroached on "I'm going to commit suicide" that was when we'd seen enough. He had to go at that point. People need to remember that this board is property of the Washington redskins.

Nothing personal though. Unlike most, I didn't find him interesting in the least. He was quite predictable, actually.

Oh and to answer the op I would say all of you. And I really mean it

[Jumbo]

Can't really disagree with that analysis, zoony. And this is all a reminder that no matter who we talk about, they come and go and (so far) the site goes on just fine. No one is really "irreplaceable" (except TK of course). :pfft:

Since i'm waxing nostalgic, it's been quite awhile since I've mentioned that zoony and I, with these same screen names, met on the internet way back before joining ES on the WaPo Redskins forum and traded posts regularly (there was a small but solid crew there, too).

That was the first, and only other site, I ever joined to post about the Redskins. I have mainly lived in the PAC NW (counting Alaska) and had met very few Redskins fans over many years.

When I came here, I dropped WaPo and have never posted on any other Redskins site, and never expect to do such. But no one should read more into that than I mean, it's "just me"; the way I am.

[mistertim]

Agree with zoony on OG MSF. He was pretty predictable but it was still entertaining sometimes to watch him do his thing and have tons of people respond (myself included on more than one occasion I'm sure; if there is one thing life has taught me so far its that I am quite far from being immune to being an idiot at times. :) )

[zoony]

Yah those were the days. 214redskins might be my all time favorite poster, ever. Remember when he showed up here? I think iheartskins banned him within the hour :ols:. Shallyshall, daghda jim, terpfan... That was a great little community

[HogNose]

I still look for MassSkinsFan.... what a loss.

MassSkinsFan was great entertainment. The "Ask MSF a Question..." (http://www.extremeskins.com/showthread.php?187808-The-quot-ASK-MSF-A-QUESTION-quot-thread)thread was pretty engaging. :ols:

It's a shame it ended the way it did.

[sportjunkie07]

i like reading Techboy's posts.. however, there can only be one, and that one is most definitely Ken.

[Jumbo]

z---it was a good bunch, and Shallyshal is on Warpath and living in Yakima WA last I heard, and doing well. 214 was tops. :)

And yes, sj, there is only one ken :) ...i hope :ols:

I think you should write a clinical journal article on the personality disorders manifested by people posting anonymously on internet message boards, and not just the crazies (although I bet they'd make some interesting case studies) but the "normal" posters as well. Though I'm not sure I'd want to know what you'd say about me (not that I'd probably understand what you were saying anyway ;) )

I've done that and more (TK & zoony often comment on this subject to me in our private phone or PM chats), and started such before I ever came to ES. I have also mentioned more than a few times how I sometimes have used tailgate threads in grad school classes as a fun way of exploring various communication/behavioral dynamics and personality/developmental topics. :D

China, you are one of those subjects who is simply in a class by yourself. :pfft: :)

[Kosher Ham]

Actually Jumbo, China might be more than in a class, he might be an entire semester of topic. haha.

They know who they are, and I have a lot of love for all the people here that make this place what it is everyday.
Thanks ladies and gents.

Speaking of ladies, a special shout out for Candace...she was bold and brazen...and her new husband must have stolen her computer...haha. No idea what happened to her.

[deejaydana]

When I called Mickalino down to Earth I meant in the sense he seemed to own his well...stuff. he would post really random stuff but he asked advice on what many of us would think of as basic things. And he had no pretentions. Anyway he was entertaining in this regard.

Mick knew what he was doing...

[Special K]

I love when Ken posts. I always have to click on that thread to see the newest bat**** crazy theory he's posting.

I also enjoy China's threads because they are totally ridiculous. It's fun to see what Jumbo has to say because he's usually serving someone their ass and the way it's done is absolutely hysterical. Zoony's pretty funny as well.

I enjoy reading Bang and Predicto's posts too because they are down to earth and intelligent.

There are so many other people, but that's just off the top of my head. I actually really enjoy everyone on here, I think it's a great community, particularly the tailgate regulars. I definitely get a lot of laughs on this site that brighten everyday for me...likely because I'm not a mod and don't have to deal with the absurd/over-the-line//insanely stupid posts like they have to. I'm allowed to laugh at those posts and move on :ols:

[visionary]

Some of my favorites:

Jumbo and Zoony, because they both have their own style of telling someone when they're being an ass. lol

HH, Predicto (especially when they're replyng to each other).

China, Bang, GACOLB, jpyaks3, any of the females (because it's interesting to see their perspective on things.)

(I could go on and on, but the more I list the more others might feel left off, so I'll stop here)


Yeah, we used to have an awesome bunch back on the Post boards too.
214 was practically a legend ... Shally too.
And we used to have an interesting guy on there sometimes called Joe McCain (I think) who was always 'entertaining' :).
A few of the folks from there have come by here and I see some post every so often.
I know Terpfan is around and Win4us.

[Koolblue13]

Somebody like visonary I usually click after just to read about interesting things, but almost never reply. I do that a lot these days, with things I either don't know much about (economics mostly) or things I have a narrow view on (war, religion).

[Forehead]

I'll say this much, I learn more here than I do pretty much anywhere else. I'll admit, I live in my own bubble, my life is family, friends, my kids, my dogs, and sports, with not much else involved. I almost never watch TV unless it's sports. Never watch the news, etc. I rarely have anything to say in political threads because I don't keep up to date on it, I have nothing to say in economics threads because despite getting A's in the class, some of the stuff discussed in here is way beyond anything I saw in the classroom. Rarely get involved in religious threads unless I have a question about something I don't understand. I only get my dander up when we're arguing the merits of vegetarianism (there are none;)) or it's something discussing border security or government information, since that's my field.Point is, there are a lot of you that annoy the bejeezus out of me:ols:, but I would miss almost everyone if they left. I feel like I learn eight new things everyday in the Tailgate just from reading other arguments and perspective.

[TheDane]

Oh, here are a few duhs:

andyman
PD93
whatever Patrick Ramsey's username was (can't remember)

Jumbo and Tarhog. Blade, just before he stopped posting, because I'd always think "****, what's happening now..." I'd say Henry, but I still hold a grudge for the one day ban (called an "adult time out" at the time) when I called someone a very bad name. I wish I remember the insult, it was quite fresh (just kidding Henry).

[Thiebear]

Chomerics was MassSkinFan but with detailed documents to back him up in every post he ever did. Even if they were hand picked ;)

PeterMP/JMS/Predicto speak on a level i have to read a few times to grasp. Some topics that boogle the mind and they do it while thier slacking off..

SnyderShrugged: I'm a slacker socialist Libertarian to his more strict sensabilities.

[stevemcqueen1]

Hard question, but I'd say Lombardi's Kid Brother. I also enjoy Corcaigh's, Bang's, Honorary Hog's, and GACOLB's posts. Each are genuinely hilarious. GACOLB always calls it like he sees it. LKB's are so persuasive he could probably convince me to join a suicide cult in less than 500 words.

I also like reading PeterMP's posts because they usually teach me something.

If it's about basketball and/or football, Samuels is a guy I always read. The guy knows as much about the sports as anyone I've ever met and he's a truth teller that never spins and I really respect that.

For basketball I go to Destino for the off beat/contrarian but well thought out perspective and I'll go to StillUnknown, Gatorbait, RonArtest15 and a few others to get my barometer properly set, they usually know what's what around the league. If I'm shooting the breeze about basketball in general, I like MLSKINS.

In the stadium I always read posts from gorebd82, The Tris, darrellgreenie, Imperium (The Robert Griffin Experience now), and Dukes. Similar interests and I have a ton of respect for what they have to say. I always read KDawg's football posts too.

[pjfootballer]

[Park City Skins]

Now as for the subject in the op,well the moderator thing comes in to play some times. See post by a member that's on the radar for a reason or 5,I tend to click on the thread to see if they've said something silly again. :) On the other side,I tend to gravitate towards vet members,especially those that are known for posting fairly well thought out replies. Those that are known for being very intelligent about the subject matter they are discussing. That is especially true in the Tailgate. I don't get in to the discussions like I used to many years ago for a variety of reasons,but I still like to read them. While it can be fairly predictable on who is going to post in many of the threads and the general tone and view point they will take,they can still be quite informative. If one can put one's political ideology aside for a few moments,(a very difficult task for some I know),one can learn something. And that for me,is what I tend to use the Tailgate forum for. It can be outstanding for that when it's at its best.

I'm kind of with you on this one. For the most part, I think everyone on here who posts bring something to the table. I've been looking at this site for years but have only been a member for a short time, and I have already seen that most people know there strengths and weaknesses and tend to stick to them for a better community product. It's very enjoyable.

It's too long a list.. some of you I read because I'll appreciate what you have to say, or that I know it's goingto be an interesting counter to whatever the previous thoughts were in the thread.

And some I look just becauseI know it's going to make me cringe. (aRedskin, I see you!)

And as I posted up in my original about Navy Dave, even folks who I completely disagree with on some topics (aRedskin, I see you again!) I think I'd enjoy having a beer with, because we definitely have the burgundy and gold in common, and probably a whole lot more.

It's good to be able to argue.

I am half-tempted, now that we're well into this kick, to examine the negative side in some thread about guys not missed at all (pretty much in my case either multiple rule-violators and *******s and also really brought the level of forum discussion way down) but there's no productive outcome in that direction. Though the mods talk about that sort of thing among themselves when it's relevant ;) (like when it's "going down").

To this day, I would throat punch chomerics and Crazyhorse1 if I ever met them. ;) :ols:

You're your own best friend. ;)

Are you familiar with the concept of a Tulpa? Basically partitioning your mind to create a persistent imaginary friend with a full personality and everything with whom you can hold a conversation. Someone on another forum I frequent has started the process of trying to create one. So far he said he's finally gotten to the point where he can hold a conversation and said he actually had an emotional reaction to something his tulpa said, but he doesn't have a visual manifestation yet.

MassSkinsFan was great entertainment. The "Ask MSF a Question..." (http://www.extremeskins.com/showthread.php?187808-The-quot-ASK-MSF-A-QUESTION-quot-thread)thread was pretty engaging. :ols:

I'd say Henry, but I still hold a grudge for the one day ban (called an "adult time out" at the time) when I called someone a very bad name. I wish I remember the insult, it was quite fresh (just kidding Henry).

Really? I gave YOU a day off? I seriously can't imagine every doing that.

Not that I don't believe you. I've banned so many ... :)



Anyway, there are definitely some people I will stop and read, and most of them have already been mentioned and I don't want to leave anyone out, so I'll just mention one I haven't seen yet that I always stop and read. Wrong Direction. That's a guy I wish would post more often.

[gbear]

Burgold, TK, Techboy, Predicto, and Jumbo are a few of the posters I always try to catch, even if I only have enough time to read quickly and mull over. Heck, it often takes me so long thinking over the concepts and arguments they pose that I need to take time out anyway. I will say their posts and other threads from this board have made me seem much more interesting to many of my friends. I mean who really wants to hear more about MS research or the gross things my kids have done today? That shtick only keeps me in the conversation for a minute or too. The sheer number of topics of conversation this board provides is endless.

SS is one I always look to for econ perspective, especially macro economics. I have also found many of my views on religion shaped by conversations on this board, so thank you to all who have participated honestly.

Problem is, he had to keep pushing the envelope to keep h is act fresh. When he encroached on "I'm going to commit suicide" that was when we'd seen enough. He had to go at that point.

Actually, I'm surprised you and I haven't done each other in for a week or so already. It's funny though. Even though you can really get under my skin sometimes, it's not like those guys I mentioned before used to. You're one of those people that I could have a heated argument with in a bar, go out and throw a few rounds in the parking lot, dust myself off, shake your hand, and meet you there the next night to do it all over again. :ols:

i have often thought about this as a thread topic, but not as much as "whose name as last poster guarantees you're not clicking...."

for me, it's zoony, hands down. zoony reminds me so much of me, but more.....smarter?

there are lots of others. some i read because they provide real insight or humor or some other good vibe, some are because i love to laugh at lunacy. plenty of both here. :ols:

I always judge by the thread titles. Usually the sports ones/ones by China/ and the own3d thread. I really don't look at last post by. Honestly, I don't, I guess I'm just super weird. Unless I see I'm the last one who's posted and my narcissistic self gets irritated that no one has continued the conversation :silly: I click on all the interesting thread titles and when I'm done reading those I click on the less interesting ones and procrastinate some more. I do pay attention to who started the threads though...

I don't post much anymore except in the RTT, but I like reading the different opinions everyone has..even the ones I disagree with (some). It's nice being able to "know" everyone, so when I don't know which one of y'all has posted last it's like a surprise... :cheers:

For the record, while it's a hotly contested list for #2 on down with many players, when it comes to vile, psychotic, frothing-crazy, and downright sick, nelms :insane: wins hands down, mainly via his PM and e-mail stuff (even as psycho as his actual posting behavior and content was, it pales in comparison).

He wrote absolutely filthy-sick and threatening e-mails for years after his multiple violations led to a perma-boot. :)

It was so bad Art not only noted it, he actually apologized to me that I had to ever read it (the initial flurry) and deal with it. That's beyond big. :ols:

Fittingly, nelms had two main backers here, one was very well-known and the other was fairly well known, but I won't name them. Those two started about half the threads in the tailgate, day in day out, for quite awhile, on various topics but all from a certain extreme side politically speaking for a long time. Some smart vets here can probably make some good guesses. I always used to think that grouping was a great illustration of "being known by the company you keep." In fact, you make a "family tree" of those three and the branches would touch a number of other well-known deportees.

It also allows admiration for the many others who have a strong political leaning to one side or the other who represent their stances regularly here over the years without being constant *******s, sickos, whackos, trolls, or just idiots lowering the level of discourse on a constant basis (what TK calls "white noise" in the stadium, only it's often of a worse nature in the 'gate due to the topical material) and eventually piling up rule violations until they're booted for good. And some people can think (or pretend) that these folk aren't such things if they like, but I tend to be honest and accurate in assessment with myself and others. :)

Hmm...one of them is the first person I said I'd throat punch. The other is...."fine red mist?"

[RonArtest15]

Hard question, but I'd say Lombardi's Kid Brother. I also enjoy Corcaigh's, Bang's, Honorary Hog's, and GACOLB's posts. Each are genuinely hilarious. GACOLB always calls it like he sees it. LKB's are so persuasive he could probably convince me to join a suicide cult in less than 500 words.

I also like reading PeterMP's posts because they usually teach me something.

If it's about basketball and/or football, Samuels is a guy I always read. The guy knows as much about the sports as anyone I've ever met and he's a truth teller that never spins and I really respect that.

For basketball I go to Destino for the off beat/contrarian but well thought out perspective and I'll go to StillUnknown, Gatorbait, RonArtest15 and a few others to get my barometer properly set, they usually know what's what around the league. If I'm shooting the breeze about basketball in general, I like MLSKINS.

In the stadium I always read posts from gorebd82, The Tris, darrellgreenie, Imperium (The Robert Griffin Experience now), and Dukes. Similar interests and I have a ton of respect for what they have to say. I always read KDawg's football posts too.

I like reading MartinC's posts in the Stadium. Knowledgeable and patient and level headed. He often helps me find perspective when I get worked up.

I like reading Burgold and HH's posts in the tailgate. You can tell how truly decent each are just from their posts.

I thoroughly enjoy twa's relentless conservatism/polemics. The man has the thickest skin... and all that entails.

I'm more of a lurker in the political/cultural/scientific/historical threads in the tailgate. Sports are all I know enough to really hold up my end of a conversation most of the time, but I'm glad other people know things and I enjoy reading what other people have to say on the issues. Lots of well informed people post here, lots of insight to soak up. This may sound pathetic but I pretty much get all of my news from NPR and scanning the tailgate.

You have no idea how much I need that Wizards thread and the NBA thread to get me through the football offseason. If not for those threads, I would ES hibernate through the spring and summer.

Those threads are one of the only places to talk about basketball I have. Everyone in my social circle loves football. But no one in my circle even remotely cares about pro basketball.

Aw man, whatever happened to that guy?

I think (but I'm not positive) that he eventually crossed the line one too many times and got the perma-boot.

The guy was definitely entertaining, I'll give him that. One of the most arrogant people I've ever encountered, but still entertaining.

[LadySkinsFan]

I follow specific topics, not specific usernames. However, I do recognize the usernames and have formed some opinions about the people behind them. I learned a long time ago that online persona are just that, persona and they may or may not reflect a posters real thoughts. I enjoy reading everyone's posts, even if I sometimes get frustrated with someone's viewpoints as other most likely get frustrated with mine.

If I am interested in a thread, I usually read all the responses in it and follow it. If I lose interest in a thread then I stop reading/posting in it.

I also like to post in the Stadium and will take breaks from Tailgate to read/post in Stadium.

The mods do an excellent job and I commend them for their fairness and tenaciousness in keeping the rest of us following the rules, which are there to make a harmonious experience, much like societal rules. Tip o' the hat to the mods!

Then he goes on about how he's a dumb redneck and that he's from Laos and that it's a landlocked country blah blah. And Hank just replies: "...So are ya Japanese orrr Chinese?"

Okay, I don't watch King of the Hill so I looked on Wiki for info about Peggy. Here's what I found, which I find hilarious BTW!

Margaret "Peggy" J. Hill (voiced by Kathy Najimy) — Hank's wife, Peggy (née Platter), was born in Montana and raised on her family's cattle farm. Her strained relationship with her mother is a source of drama for her, which all comes to a head in an episode wherein she and the Hills go to Montana to help her mother's ailing farm. Peggy is now a substitute teacher in Arlen, Texas. She specializes in teaching Spanish. She believes she speaks the language fluently, but in actuality has a poor grasp of the language. She thinks carniceria (meat market) means carnival. Her poor grammar, syntax and pronunciation often makes native Spanish speakers think she is insulting them if they understand what she's saying at all. Peggy's knowledge and pronunciation of the language is feeble at best, and she refers to it with her Texas drawl as /ˌɛs.ˌpæn.ˈoʊl/ and pronounces por favor as /ˌpɔrfeɪˈvɔr/. At one point her poor Spanish-language skills cause international terrorist incidents in Mexico, Guatemala, and Peru. Despite her self-delusion that she speaks Spanish well, Peggy jumps at any chance to be a temporary sub for any other class at Tom Landry Middle School. Peggy is also a freelance newspaper columnist, notary public, an exemplary softball pitcher and a Boggle champion and has started a career in real estate. She has a habit of adding or changing ingredients to ordinary dishes then naming them after herself. "SpaPeggy & Meatballs" and "Apple Brown Peggy" are conspicuous examples. In a number of episodes, this gets her into trouble. Peggy is very self-conscious about her larger-than-normal feet (size 16 ½ on the left, 16 on the right). Peggy will often excitedly murmur "Ho, yeah!" when she completes a task well, and "Oh, Peggy!": a self-awarded compliment accompanied by a modest giggle after coming up with a phrase she finds especially clever. Peggy can be likeable and is a fairly good mother despite her foibles. She has been known to offer good advice to Luanne and Bobby—and even to Hank. Hank and she are very much in love with each other. They have eyes for no one else—although Peggy briefly contemplated adultery with the actor who stars as a secret-agent–priest in "Los Dias y Las Noches de Monsignor Martinez," a fictional Spanish-language TV series. Peggy occasionally has her classes watch this program as a homework assignment.

Some similarities: I do speak rudimentary HS Spanish and having lived in Miami you have to speak it to get along down there. My speaking vocabulary is atrocious but I can actually read Spanish better than I can speak it. I like to cook but don't make up names for dishes that incorporate my name. It would be hard to incorporate LadySkinsFan into a dish don't you think? ;) I do offer very good advice to my near and dear ones and even to some ESers! Quel surprise! I like to watch Spanish telenovellas. When I was in Miami I even watched the Brasillian ones as I was supporting the Brasillian branch of a major telecom company at the time. My family did have farms, on both sides and I want to have a small organic farm with some chickens.

Now for the dissimilarities: I have not now nor have I ever been a teacher in Texas, but my daughter SIL and granddaughter live there albeit in "liberal" Austin. I am not heterosexual but I played one on TV for a while. Oh wait, that wasn't on TV that was real life. I'm not from Montana but one of my GF's ex husbands was from Montana.

I am linked to honorary_hog in fictional marriage?! :evilg:

All this King Of The Hill talk and no one has mentioned who would play Dale?

I was just thinking attitude-wise, not in a down-to-the-last-detail sense of resembling Peggy.

I will concede that if we're linked in even a fictional marriage, you should be slightly more offended than I. :ols: ;)

Probably Ken with all his wild government conspiracies.

Rusty Shackleford, as mentioned by Sticksboi, is Dale's pseudonym.

hubbs, who i try to shepherd at times and am impressed with at times, and want to choke at times when he spazzes

:ols:

I'm sure I'm choke-worthy sometimes. I'm not even sure what you're referring to, I'm just sure that I'm choke-worthy sometimes. Is it sending you too many PMs?
