Remember the Maine, pendejo. Row boat season is cancelled. I’m pissed and going to the mattresses.creepycoug said:Here’s my thought. Those guys were fine posters ... not bad and for sure not great. Just fine.
Losing me would be corona virus bad. Losing those guys is like extending allergy season by a day.
Think about that b4 your next DNC campaign trying to shame me for only having pretend $$. -
I still don't get why they left. No idea how they could have lasted as long as they did and then finally get offended after 5+ years. Did it have to do with them saying they were putting up their own site and then when it didn't happen around Rose Bowl time the (expected) jokes about it made them sad? That's the only thing I can think of.

I just hope they keep poddin’.

Imagine pretending that J ran you.

I definitely think that was the turning point. Coker basically vanished from this site shortly after the Rose Bowl and DDY's presence gradually faded after that too.Meek said:I still don't get why they left.

They are super fans of everything UW. Education, all sports, everything. This site is dedicated to the football program and friendly banter between pac 12 fans. It's that simple.Meek said:I still don't get why they left.
Having a duck bored on a husky site is the equivalent of letting your neighbor's 35 year old unemployed strung out son live in your spare bedroom while tending to a grow op in your garage and eating out of your fridge. Just one example but they were never really going to stay here.

I dont get any of this. Coker came back briefly as definitelynotcoker. Dennis was back as whatever he was. Then they were gone again.Meek said:I still don't get why they left.

I thought they started their own thing because this place limited their ambitions a bit, and that their new one would always be kind of a companion site to this. They wouldn't be here as much because they'd be busier there and for no other reason.
Then they struggled to launch and got teased a bunch, with a few even slinging shit at them and treating them like Chest. When they stopped coming on here I still just figured it had to do with changed priorities or something, not any kind of hard feelings.
If theres more to it then that then, well, I guess i just dont GAF. Not my deal. I wish they were back running the recruiting board sans LMC, but its humming along ok without them too thanks to Courics, neighbor, dnc, and the rest. -
What I struggle with sometimes, is that a lot of key posters who help keep this place afloat with quality content were all at the TSIO Rose Bowl tailgate. There was real and great comradery.
Watching Mrs Yella banter with Coker on the topic of teen boi girl fren gossip was hilarious. DDY nominated me to help make the the Shitty Rose Bowl tailgate playlist and this was a terrific collaboration by rock history nerds. @UW_Doog_Bot fucked up on PA system but no big deal.
Moral of the story: it should have been apparent to those guys that the overwhelming majority of us loved their contributions and HH was and still remains the best platform for their shtick. -
It's a question of trying to develop a public persona. On Twitter they have to pump up UW while restraining their all their angst, anger, and hysteria. They are trying to have influence as a UW AD shadow government.
How does such a "leadership" role jibe with getting roasted on a message board, periodically? They can't handle both roles.
They want to control conversation and message, not really debate it with others. Especially when they screw up.
