I don't know of the circumstance of him acquiring a new handle but as I recall he mentioned it a few years ago. And, he's still riled up!! Being banned, now he's probably just P.O.

Tom, I can't believe a good conservative like you would advocate "post redistribution"

I think he said he forgot what his allriledup handle password was. So he started a new account.The rest is history.

SRU if you read this, reset the password and COME BACK !!!!

Maybe for SRU and maybe others, a count shouldn't be given. Instead, maybe something like McDonalds had to change to after they passed 99 Billion, now they just say Billions Served. So, "Posts: Thousands" or "Tens of Thousands"

Why does it matter what your "count" is? Does that mean diddley? Does that impress people? Does it make your opinion the right one?

NO, to all the above. It might just mean that you need a hobby!

ReplayRandall got pissed. He was pissed at me. That isn't why he left. He was pissed at the board in general. But he let me know he was pissed at me.

I thought he got a little touchy and unreasonable, but he was angry. I was hoping it would just be a hiatus because he was a good contributor, but who knows.

Thask is a bummer of a loss. That guy was sharp in a multitude of ways.

He started getting into replay watching. He was remarking near the end about things he had seen on replays. I kind of wanted to see what he was trying to do, but by the time I'd see his posts and could post myself, he was off and running in another direction. SRU was more than happy to learn a lesson or two from posters he liked. you could see the respect he has for EMD4ME (Well deserved, might I add)

The constant, mesmerizing drone that is Tom. Steady as she goes.

That part regarding his posting was a running gag which he was happy participating. He had a good sense of humor with most of his posts and his quick sense of analysis of situations whether he was correct or incorrect didn't matter to him.

SRU never took the criticism seriously, and never reverted to name calling, unlike some frequent posters here. If you don't agree, you don't agree. No skin off anybodys back, we are anonymous here. I don't really care what you think, I don't have to deal with you in my daily life. I'll just put you on my "ignore list".

For the record, I still miss SRU. We should allow him back please.

I don't understand why you would place me on your "ignore list" based on my previous response to you. But, I probably can come up with a really reason just give me another chance.

in the karl broberg thread he was driving cj (only like probably the best poster in the history of the board) away from the site. i shouldn't have to spell this out for great handicappers..... they should have seen it coming.
