I never understand that whole “disable my account“ or “delete my account“. If you’re done, just don’t log in anymore, which may well be what 8893 is doing.

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

He's fine. Totally offline now (other than video games). Like, I texted him last year when we were on a run and he hadn't been online or watched a UConn game. I hope he's turned on one this year.

Thanks. Another good dude. I met him during a Calhoun walk for charity and he spent the entire walk it seemed making more calls for the charity.

respect, I had fell out of watching CBB except for a few games here and there, trying to get back into it, this is a fun UConn team to watch.

FWIW, I always read you as a true basketball fan. I can believe that a team that plays team ball would pique your interest.

@Stainmaster Is a legitimately nice and thoughtful guy through our interactions on here and other forums. Just actually asked a mutual friend how he was doing the other since I don't have direct contact information.

And...?

Did anyone here ever used to be on the ESPN UConn board? I used to get into a fight with some poster TruthorUConsequences that must have been a Nova troll

Lol I distinctly remember that name without any actual recollection of their posts or and interaction I may have had with them

Talked to him over the holiday weekend. He's good. We didn't talk about why he's not here or anything, but I can confirm he is alive. :)

Aww.. this is great. It’s like the dog story but 88 went to someone else’s house, and can talk on the phone, and didn’t have bandages on his paws from sleeping in the woods.

It kinda is. I hadn't heard back from a guy recently and only found out what happened when I read his obit.

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.

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

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!
Expand ...

I think DogMania is just enjoying life.

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

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.

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?
