Whatever happened to people like VanHelsing and preph?  Used to see them all the time (a long time ago), did they eventually get banned?  Not trying to bring up old beefs, I'm legitimately curious.

Haven't seen Bearsfan247 lately either, I loved the Chris Farley avatar.

I know BrettASU got banned finally.  Used to enjoy reading all that stuff, way before I joined and started posting.

Not sure about the etiquette here... is this the kind of thing you're not supposed to bring up?

Ssssssshhhhhhhh.......

Fair enough.

Book it

Old posters never die, they just reboot their routers.

This is the season for all to join the fun, sound off Bears fans!   

As for the banned, they rise up and roam the boards under new names, presumably in search of brains.

Okay, so that was a much better way to phrase it.

I've spotted Bearsfan on here recently. Some of those other guys won't be seen around here.

Oh, sorry, I should read the thread first.

Oh great Shark, now there'll be a girls of the 70's thread!

247 stopped posting as much because UFan started a thread complaining and he took his side. Brett is banned. Not really sure about preph.

Consider it done!

preph got banned because he said some rude things to JC a few years back

Seems like only a few months but .....  Yeah he's gone bye bye.

Preph turned 14 and found other things on his computer. Then his mom took his computer away.

Maybe some of them rise up and roam the boards under new names in search of continuing to contribute to the board in a positive and humorous way, as some of them had always done.

Unless you think that all banned posters are banned for reasons that are justified and fair, as opposed to banning 5-year paying subscribers with 16K posts without warning, in an attempt to bow down to the empty legal threats of incarcerated criminals hell-bent on personal revenge.

Look fellas, like I've said before, it's not that I was taking anyone's side, it's that I grew annoyed with how Ufan was treated because he had a different opinion.  Ufan was a solid poster on this board and him and I never really seen eye to eye about things, but that didn't mean that we'd go after each other with personal attacks etc.  We had civil debates about our differences and then move on.  There's really nothing else to it.   

Yeah, it really pissed me off when good posters like 4Da, bearsinhouston and a few others left this board because of the same reason, but I still came back here.  Now the board has basically become a place where there can be no gray area, it's only black or white.  You can't comment about the sh*ttyness of the Bears OL, because then you'll be told "the Bears are 7-1, so shut up."       

As for my post numbers...I just don't have the time to post as much and that's all there is to it.  I'd love to be able to post all day, everyday like I used to, but it's just not possible these days with work and the family and other stuff that I'm involved with in this small community. 

GO BEARS!!!

Glad to see you post.  And Seeters, I used to love your Brad Childress 'loser' avatar.
And 247, trust me, it's okay to point out the shittiness of the OL.
