Good guy. Buys drinks.

I disagree with many decisions he made running the board...but he kept it going for a long time.

If a long time poster cost me $14 by extending a chat room's month to month billing cycle...I would not have banned that poster. Just saying.

edit: Except if that long time poster was also a long time guy.

Spanky was one of BF's most loyal supporters. Hope he is doing well and comes back soon.



What happened to spanky? Did he get banned for cheating on Chris in Joliet?

Yeah, that was odd. I can tell you Spanky is still alive. Or someone hacked his Twitter and Untappd accounts. Maybe it was IceGirl?

Bigfan is no longer the boss. If doesn't like it here he can feel free to do the same.

I'm aware. That's why the second sentence is past tense.

I will go on record and say I don't dislike bigfan, but I also don't think he's very likable.

Let is also present tense, as well as imperfect.

He should of fucked himself.


bigfan did let a lot of stuff go. He also let some questionable things be said many times over with little or no punishment. Meanwhile if you were on bigfan's "bad side", you could see many of your posts disappear simply because he didn't like you and/or didn't agree with your opinion. He also edited many posts here that were not his own.

Ultimately it was his board and he could do what he wanted. That said, myself and others had just as much of a right to call him out on his bullshit.

You say something once or twice and people are on your side but at some point it is overkill. You either make peace with the situation or disengage.

To set the record straight: I like bigfan just fine. It's Frank and Darkside that I can't stand.

For what it's worth (not much) I never had much of a problem with how he operated this place. In the immortal words of Chet Coppock "his dime his dancefloor". I think that some people here believed that they were somehow speaking truth to power with some of their arguments but it was ill placed. If you don't like the guy or the way he ran things then don't post. If he unfairly treats people on here and it offends then don't post.

Please define MANY.

Seems to be the premise of each of your statements and after you define them, I would like to hear them speak for themselves, if you allow them?

if I wasnt OK with hearing from those "MANY" I wouldn't have posted this, so can the "MANY" speak up?

Frank - OK, fine with it
FavreFan - Yeah, Boohoo
CHUS - I understand, I only let him have his T&A sections, contests and drug thoughts, but I see why he didn't care for me.
Kirkwood - runs 75% dislike, but not sure he doesnt care for me, but he can make that statement.

Just looking to see who else is among the "MANY"...

Will check back later today, I look forward to your input.


I got not problem with you.

I think there is some truth in there, but that's really a testament to how well bigfan ran the place. People came to see it as "theirs" not "his". And really, if you're going to operate a forum like this, isn't that what you want?

I only had a few run ins. Obviously I disagreed with many of the bannings because they impacted people I liked. However, BF always made it clear to knock it off. He hated the Clash talk, and he was really agitated when I brought up DB. Message received loud and clear.

He was pleasant on our PM conversations.

I never understood why folks would want to pick a fight with the guy who runs the place at no cost to us. You aren't going to win that one, ever. You have dozens of easy targets on this board, so to go after the host seems like suicide.

Hey Baby, aren't message boards great?
It must be wonderful to have a place to go to validate your meaningless existence by calling people sophomoric names.
I'm glad you are allowed back here so you don't do anything irrational in public.
It's best for society that you just keep yourself busy with your little computer in your mommy's basement.
Have a great day you psychopath!!!
