IU Grads Poll

I’m not. But at least I’ve been to Bloomington (many times).
I don’t recall but it was almost 20 years ago (maybe more?). Hell, I was once banned permanently. I even still have the email from Buzz banning me in 2009 (I forget how I was allowed back):
No, N, what I did was suggest that your post wasn't fit for polite company, and as can be seen below, it wasn't. It was rude, condescending, boorish, hostile, childish, and insulting to others. As for fixing it, didn't your mom teach you that you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar? Given your tone, while asking me for something I'm in no way obligated to do, I'm guessing not.
What I will do before too long is take the whole dopey thread down. What I will also do is make your suspension permanent, since this e-mail has convinced me you have no intention of playing nice with the other kids. Finally, I will direct any future e-mails from you directly to my junk mail folder, so I don't have to put up with you any more.
I scanned the board those days and didn’t bother. I’d have made it five minutes at best
A historical document right there. It all runs together, was Buzz one of Peeg’s boys or were those Star news days?
RIP Buzz, you fvking prick.
One of my earlier joys here was ARuss reinstating me after the prick canned me.
After the third or fourth time, he gave up....
Didn’t deal with Buzz but based on that response to you he was pompous dick in the mold of Rockfish.
I am sure he would have given me a permanent ban quickly.
@sobester have you voted in the poll? You’re wrong and in the minority.
Well and those not grads may have gone to iu, be residents of Indiana, fans of the program and rabid supporters etc.
Ha. Like I trust your poll. Also, it’s not just this board, it’s the sports boards too. Let me know how that works out.
You’re a dumbass. Trolls are subject to being banned.
I started my post secondary education at IUPUI though dropped out before the end of my second semester. I completed my degree at The School of Hard Knocks with a double major in Life's Little Kicks in the Ass and Quantum Pain in the Ass Theory.
Does that count?

Then ban me. Shame to do that right when I’m considering becoming a paying member.
I couldn't imagine hanging around at some rivals forums...to shitpost football or basketball...let alone their "current events" board...
Except for maybe TexAgs...those boys are based. 😄

I can tolerate you as a paying member. I’ll be expecting your gold badge any minute.
So are you in the process of subscribing? Should I expect your member badge in minute or so?
Still considering. It’s bad business practice to pressure me like this.
Creatures like @sobester are what keep reasonable conversation away. Let alone having it create a thread to prove something to a dumbass that won’t believe it anyways.

We don’t have to agree for you to do it. Just write a big ol’ check and make it out to the IRS. Not a gawd damn thing stopping you. Or just continue to virtue signal and act like paying 10k more a year in basic goods and services is good for the average American family.
You could also do the environment and climate (and us) a favor and jump off the nearest bridge. You know, to lessen your carbon footprint and save the world. Really walk the walk type of stuff.

That must be from the good old days when men were men and mods were mods.
I find it ironic that I don’t post here in
Agree to FORCE them to pay more taxes.

I like the cut of that guy's jib.
Thanks for the link. I think I might go over there and see how that enlightened group responds to some Cornell West campaign ideas.I couldn't imagine hanging around at some rivals forums...to shitpost football or basketball...let alone their "current events" board...

You would have been well thought of in those days. Like I said. I didn’t even bother
😄
You gotta do it...and if you do, "livestream" it here.
Aggies are great, BTW...kinda like Boilers when it gets down to it. 😄
I know; my wife is one.
And I met a lot of them when I was in Texas. I still love texting some of them, telling them that the A&M could never compete in a real conference like the B1G. Infuriates them every time.
Yeah, he wouldn't have tolerated your thin-skinned, low signal quality posts. He didn't tolerate mine when I first found the board, but really thoughtful posters like DougS, Buzz, IUTerry, and Rockfish prodded me to engage in better conversation. I guess I'm one of those awful people who rises and falls to the level of what surrounds him.
Buzz could be a dick about it, but the quality of the arguments and conversation was exponentially higher during his reign. Posters like @BradStevens , @Univee2 , and @Marvin the Martian were the norm. Folks as thoughtful and informed as @crazed_hoosier2 and @Noodle or as middle of the road establishment as @Aloha Hoosier (all of whom I mostly disagree with politically but have learned a ton from and have tons of respect for*) were seen a bit as bomb-throwers in that regime. Some of that is mellowing and becoming better informed with age, but a lot of that is something else.
*add Ranger/Wakeboarder to that list, too, but can't remember if he was around much in the Buzz era.
Right. I stayed away from the Cooler on purpose and only came back at the challenge from Bowelmania, aka Aloha.
It's still a cesspool, but finally has some alternate opinions.
ANuss used to delete and ban me from his site all the time.
Was there a running feud between him and Buzz?
