Misc The abandoned East European server room of LJ and Kori Ellis

Yeah, it's dead. But I usually check it out after game day. Just old habits.

If your family moved to a new house would you keep driving to the old house after work out of "old habits"?

No game thread for the last two games. It was a good run there but we got a great thing going on here. Viva Los Bums!!

I heard we're going back there eventually

 

[NotoriousHOP]

Well.... I was just there a couple of minutes ago

 

[k....]

yeah no posts in the last 6 hours for game on national TV . no thread about wemby's health. its just a few grievance threads . someone should bump the classic threads up to help them out. it's the least we can do

Home is what you make it.

Goddamn boy, everyone knows that

"Game Grades by LJ Ellis" still being posted.

Not quite the LoL bot sounding of the last 4 years or is it?

Crawling, with our tails tucked, according to @koriwhat.

I was on ESPN boards around 2002. Jesus the stupid was real

And suddenly the "Spurs Fans = Anal Butt Lovers" spam attacks have popped back into my brain.

You should bring back the prediction game contest.

I feel validated that anyone remembers that, but I don't even remember the rules and I don't have the kind of free time I had when i was an antisocial collegiate.

It's become a rogue AI program now that will exist in perpetuity. Humanity will have been extinct for a millenia and it'll still be cranking out fake game grades

 

[poopbox]

Accidentally wen there earlier and its just like 3 deranged posters talking to themselves in 80% of the threads

 

[Ice009]

Was Timvp actually doing the game grades for a while? When did he stop? I assume they were legit up until a certain point?

Haha no worries

In fact, I was thinking about starting your prediction game contest here when this forum opened up to get some activity going but I forgot your game rules. I remember there were little twists to the game that made it fun but it's been twenty plus years now, fuck if I remember them. Good times though.

Maybe @Seventyniner remembers

Why assume he hung up his keyboard? It’s not like he was churning out Pulitzer-worthy prose—more like the kind of sports commentary you’d skim in a high school paper while waiting for lunch. The whole ESPN plagiarism drama? Please. That was just a lazy writer borrowing from a convenient source. Now, the daily grind on the board is gone, replaced by the occasional blog post. Odds are they’re both sipping tea somewhere in Montana—or wherever—while LJ happily avoids the apocalyptic Bexar County weather that once nearly did him in.

It's been over 24 hours since anyone has posted there. And that was @benefactor and his occasional reach out to potential refugees.

Seems like the Political Forum is still very active. So basically, the virus that is that subforum has finally choked the life out of the rest of it. Hope the site owners are happy.

 

[Dex]

It's sad that it seems to have become a turf war of sorts, and I won't promote one side or the other.

The fact is...Baseline Bums works thanks to the hard work of people who made it happen.

SpursTalk continues to just slide into the swamp. There were promises of some forum update that never seemed to happen, and it's stagnant now that everybody found a new spring.

It sucks the Spurs name is on a website tied to that disgusting and vile rhetoric. If the Spurs knew about that I wonder if they'd send a cease and desist to remove their name from the website.

Went over there for the first time in weeks. Absolute garbage of a site. at the one guy who said all the whiners are over here. Well, he's right about that. The whiners, the trolls, the people who want to talk ball, the people who like to lurk, the people who don't live and breathe politics? They're all here.

Some people still over there really just want that place to be a ghost site apparently. They got their wish.
