When I joined the old forums, there were only 2-3 Admins and a few MODS.  Jo From Flo was the only daily active Admin.  I think the other two were actually accounts controlled by the team.

I became a MOD a one point because I've modd'd forums for a long long time and understood what it took to have control and be fair.  Denny became a MOD the same time I did.  I stepped down as a MOD at some point because I didn't have time for it.  Denny stayed on, and even then was letting the control go to his head.  Jo stepped down as an Admin.  Denny was promoted to ADMIN and became a tyrant, which is why he is so hated to this day.

Denny was not hated for his positive attitude, but for what he became when he took over the forums.  He and Joe both had emoji's created because they were both fan favorites for a long time.  Before he was a MOD Denny was actually (mostly) a beloved poster.  The problem is that most people don't remember that far back.

I always liked Wolfie and got along with him super-well, but he appears to simply jump on whatever trend is popular and trying to make a future with it (he did it with his church, then with football {Stripe Hype} now he does YT videos on VGs; the dime a dozen ones that thousands do on any current game) and as such, I believe he genuinely means well and he's a very kindhearted person, but, not sure if his fandom is as strong as it once was and as a result, only think he would pop in once a year or so (hasn't since May of 2020).

Neb I believe has had a few health issues here and there (used to always say so on Klotsch), so not sure what's going on there; I hope he's alright.


Lawless is a weird one lol. His tweets on the team are ok, but he has a TON of cringey/creepy tweets as well. IIRC, he also just upped and said he wasn't going to post here anymore and he didn't.

Eox is still on Twitter, but he too isn't nearly as engaged on football like he used to be (he still tweets about games and such constantly) and over half of his tweets are just shitposts

FUNNY shitposts (and many are valid), but shitposts nonetheless  

For 'zerker specifically, I was wondering why I wasn't seeing the deep-dive into formations and schemes from him, for a while and I checked his name last week, which is where I saw he has been suspended since June. He and Mike Santagata (Bengal_Sans) were some of the best Bengal-specific clip studies on Twitter and now it's just Sans, basically.

What was up with that dude who caused issues here when we jumped from the mothership?

He was one of the old posters that put this board together.

Got the boot for some malicious reason.

I remember Rayne getting banned.

Also could have been any number of others that went and got themselves banned, like Ghostrider, Beavis, Steelman, and the one poster who claimed to get Christmas cards from the Rooney family.

Who was that guy that drag raced? Think he had a Thunderbird as his avatar. Can't remember the name, but it's one of those.... nevermind, I think it was TheBurg?

I just remember that this board, as well as its predecessor were very dramatic for a couple years. It seemed like every other poster was some nutter with some weird anonymous motive to their posting. I was thoroughly entertained by that stuff for a while.

It doesn’t seem like that happens anymore, though I have much less activity here than I used to.
