Haven’t Seen an 8893 Post in a While

[District-Husky]

I dated a woman off and on in my mid / late 30s - kinda crazy but also crazy fun. A few years ago she emailed me out of the blue. I responded and then she emailed back that she had just been diagnosed with cancer. I emailed back. Nothing. Texted her. Nothing. I googled her and got her new address, went to the house, and her mother was there preparing for the funeral scheduled for the next day.

Hope all the wayward boneyarders are healthy and safe.

I think it's the whole addiction thing. Even if you swear it off and it's still out there for your access scary stuff can happen. Stain was tired of being a junky and the temptation needed to be eliminated.

A lot of people went a little crazy on the cesspool and either banned themselves or asked to be deleted, at least that's my understanding.

The cesspool was great, until it wasn’t. Then it was pretty awful. I have no idea how the leaching field is.

Maybeit’s an addiction. Some people need their access revoked to stay away.

Yeah, that never occurred to me, but I guess it’s a possibility.

Can relate to @8893 ..Nuff said

As far as message boards go the first one I remember was the AOL UConn board. That was dial up internet and maybe somewhere between 1993-95? I feel like the most back and forth we had back then with opposing fans was the UMass Caliparis

Prodigy was first.

Combo of work related and, I believe, he became disenchanted with The Boneyard over some Cesspool stuff plus The Boneyard's reaction to KO after the firing.

Hope Intlzncaster is present in a new iteration.

Couple of other losses:
Dogmania - his postgame reports should have been named "Dogmania Long Johns". If anyone wrote a long post that post would be identified as Dogmania in nature. Life happened I believe for him.
@champs99and04 - made Dogmania posts look @Waquoit brief. Kid was going to college (NH?). Was very popular until he took issue on something that the majority of posters reamed him over. Still is a member and recently made a post. But a shame he's less interactive.

Posters that have recently contributed that were absent or very quiet whose contributions I admire:
@caw
@aceboon

And most of all:
@Gurleyman

Great to see you back!

I think DogMania is just enjoying life.

Recently remarried, I believe, and is just out and about and having a good time of it.

CAHusky would love this team.

 

[ConnHuskBask]

And...?

Pretty sure all was well last they had spoken. Think @August_West may have alluded to that above too.

The leaching field is a boring echo chamber, nothing interesting going on over there. The cesspool was fun until it got a bit too personal for some. It seems like a lot of the drama revolved around Scal*to and Whaler, I hope they're both well.

Whatever happened to whaler? I will never forget the poker night I owned him and nelson at the same time and nelson wasn’t even there.

 

[aceboon]

So a question for those who know the answer. For how long has there been some iteration of the BY online? I started coming here in 1997-1998 when I was in law school at Pittsburgh. I think it was McDs back then, and I was PittsburghHuskyFan.

A brief history on the formation of the BY would be a great read.

I have to add this. I don’t feel like I add much to the board, but this is a bit on-the-nose: Boneyard inception?

 

[husky429]

I think he ended up went and wrote for some sports blog for a while? His content was gold on here

 

[husky429]

I know way too much about you people for as much as I dislike you

You are the one with 71 ignores.

When 8893 makes an appearance in this thread, he's going to get 100 likes. It might set a record.

 

[polycom]

Who are you again?

This thread isn’t about me. We are looking for a particular user

 

[imno1]

Leave the guy alone. Who here hasn’t gone on a crack bin every now and then.
But seriously I wouldn’t be surprised if 8893 felt the BY was killing productivity at work and cutting into his leisure activities.

You are the one with 71 ignores.

who’s that I can’t see the post

I remember that. At the time I was working on Prodigy.
