Be civil, courteous and move on. It’s OK, and even GOOD, to disagree, otherwise it would be boring and you’d never learn anything.

I know a fair bit but plenty here can talk above my level and I’ll eagerly admit to learning something. I’m probably about average on actual in depth bills knowledge these days as I’m less connected to buffalo personally lately.. I’m ok with X and Os but like to think that wide angle discussions on league trends and things that are broad based Nfl I’ll dig in a little more on my takes. That dude would go down with the ship and be condescending about it even on things that were clearly not in his wheelhouse. Such is life. We all unreasonably seek validation in our own kooky ways I suppose. Hopefully he’s on to a version that’s better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Duffy Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 (edited) I personally think it may be something else. I remember PMing him one day and I asked...."hey man, how they hanging"?

If he wasn't receiving monetary compensation for this sort of thing, why in the world would he do that? Because he had some pathological need to be the author of most threads at this forum? Or what exactly? Doesn't make sense. I also always wondered his age and life situation. He clearly suggested that he was more "old" than "young" in a lot of his posts. Yet he didn't come across as old enough to be retired. I always assumed he was home on permanent disability or some such and spent all his time in front of a computer, alone. No way he had a family.

JohnC Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 How does someone like 26Corner or YOLO get so many links to paste on the Bills and football topics? Are they getting twitter feeds that they then post? Just curious? With 26Corner it seemed as if it was almost a 24 hr. operation. 26Corner at times could be stubborn and irascible but I did appreciate his posting the links. If he was as congenial as his nemesis, YOLO, there would have been less hostility with the other members.

In the thread, I said "Don't worry, he'll be back." Well, the pre-season is upon us, and he is not back. It looks like he isn't coming back. He's still over at the Sabres section of HFboards, so he is not dead. Any theories as to his disappearance? I find it really interesting. He went from quite literally dedicating his life to posting on this forum to nothing. What happened? it is is interesting, but he was a dick, so dont care.
