Haha! Dude was bald in the 6th grade, he said by choice, but never see him with hair again
 
Can't believe it's been 7.5 years here already. Time flies.

barfo (fanhome-->BBB/BBF-->S2)
 
I found this place because a Coworker would always talk about this forum and at the time I was only reading one other Blazer board which was RealGM. Was a lurker for awhile but the game threads were so much fun to read that I decided to make an account and join to primary post in them.
 
I was over there but mainly just read it. I posted a few times.. but a certain poster was completely in love with Batum & Luck at the time... They were so tiresome. Wonder if they still think Kawhi is a bust.
A couple others were over there that seemed to change when this became the official Blazer forums.
I didn't make an account here until I figured out it wasn't going to be the same situation as over there.
 
I was a Community Moderator at BBF, along with Minstrel and Gambitnut (RIP). My proudest moment was getting to be the one who clicked "Ban User" for Mixum. There's a longer Exodus history though that goes beyond BBF and into Fanhome. A fellow by the name of Loyalty4Life convinced everyone to leave Fanhome for BBF, then somehow ended up getting banned from both IIRC. I modded at Fanhome with ABM and GymRat and a handfull of others.
 
I've been around since the Fanhome days, with the same screename then whole time.

I don't remember why the transition to sportstwo happened, I just got a PM and everybody left so I went along.
 
Hey, HCP, i bet an all-time hispanic team would make a kick-ass d-league team.
 
S2 was created by a handful of Admins and CM's that defected from BBF and basically just told everyone "hey we're leaving"

That's would be me :)

I posted on fanhome. Then bbb.net which turned into bbf, then posted here and bbf at the same time until you all migrated.

I was pulled over here by a great guy named cpawfan.

Yeah, I was at bbb.net, then bbf, and I didn't post for a month or so on bbf, logged in, noticed most people had left, and then figured out where you all went (via Mrs. HCP), and here I am.

Not quite.

S2 was here for a year or so before the exodus from BBF.

As I remember it, BBF had really strict rules and a lot of confrontation between staff and posters. S2 was meant to be the opposite: as few rules as possible and avoid confrontation between staff and posters.

Also, I remember some L*kers global mod came into the Blazers forum and did several things to piss everyone off. Like HCP said in his initial post, they took issue with him asking "name your all-time white team."

ABM is a great guy. Where did he go?

True. One of the problems on BBF was the powers there gave mod privileges to a group of teenagers who loved the power and greatly abused it. They went nuts and all the adults left. ABM was the one who pointed me here too.

Likewise. I have enjoyed your presence on this board and BBF for quite some time. It was great actually meeting you.

It was nice to find out that all the things they say about you aren't necessarily true. :-)
