Life happens for a lot of folks. And I think the Benning Era killed the passion of a lot of folks. This board was not...fun...to be around at that time.

Benning was making bad decisions on and off the ice, also that’s where his family members were causing issues around the city.

Don’t wanna drag his fam into this but it was bad at the time.

Wait you mean Rambo from 82 and The Matrix from 99?

yeah.

 

[Hit the post]

As pitseleh noted, he was one - NFITO definitely was. And Barney Gumble was, he is now Hit the Post.

I got the weirdest reactions from Flames fans on this board. Nothing hostile or out of line. You see, apparently there was a Moderator on CalgaryPuck board who's username was "Barney Gumble".

I miss nameless, dude.

I don't believe AVG was ever a mod.

Nuckles, PG Canuck, Zombotron, WTG, Bleach Clean, Hit the Post, Bourne Endeavor, and Chairman Maouth are all still around. They served a few tours of duty.

As for ones who were that aren't around any longer, man. Timmy, mrmyheadhurts, thepuckmonster, Taelin, 19nazzy, Tryamkin, Ronning on Empty, Tiranis, LaVal...there's a bunch.

EDIT: This is in addition to the aforementioned Stig.

Ronning on Empty got Bleached Cleaned...

I get lost in username changes, sometimes.

Like the time Fugu (Rest in Peace, Barb) tried to change her username. We all revolted until she changed it back.

It's why I can and will not change my username ever. My friend says he goes by avy's so I stuck with the Mother Mother one for a while, but I just think he's autistic as shit.

 

[thefeebster]

Username changes always mess me up too. For example, Quinning. I know I’ve been reading their posts for a decade+ now, but I click his/her profile to check old usernames, and it gives me an error message saying I don’t have permission to view previous names. I don’t know if it’s a user choice setting or the forum, but it’s been bugging me, how am I gonna figure out who this person was.

You were the Moderator we deserved but not the one we need right now....

Cue the Dark Knight theme music...

speaking of killing,,,,,,

So the guy who was just arrested for assassinated the United Health CEO in NYC last week was apparently a Canucks fan. Not that being a Canucks fan drove him to murder....just a coincidence.

Probably a Luongo fan and went wrong as a child when Brodeur won the Vezina!

He also interned at Firaxis and fixed a bunch of bugs in Civilization VI.

Civilization II was the peak if only because of the city advisors:

Ha. I could never be a moderator. I've been offered positions of authority before. I don't particularly enjoy it.
