The aliens finally got him
Old timers from RR

- Start date
I was on the AOL board for a long time too, along with my hubbyCool to see so many of the old timers on here. Lots of fun memories.
I started on the AoL board. Was mainly a lurker for a long time though.
I remember the first thread I ever started was about Reggie Hanson signing a 10 day contract with the Celtics back in 98.
If you remember the Grandstand chat rooms..I was a chat room host on there
I've been here since 2009 when I migrated over from firetubbysmith.com. I started as PrimeMF, then changed my name when I moved to Charleston SC (It's called the Low Country) and then I got banned but then got let back in, and eventually changed my name to Ash.

Ha yep @ukalum1988 that was his alternate screene
That he swore wasn’t him
I can’t quote people on this new board. It’s maddening.

Let’s see - mudererofcrows welched on a 500 dollar bet about our football teams win/loss
there is one poster here who was a man of his word and paid a lost bet over The ucla/uk tournament game but I’m not going to pour salt on that wound but idk if he’s been seen here or not.
I remember one guy in the political thread I riled up so bad he posted his paycheck stubs to prove he was rich. Then everyone made fun of him for doing it and he actually started to be a decent poster/person.

Damn. I’ve been coming on here (but not regularly posting) since the end of Tubby’s era. Made me really sad to hear about Don and BKH.
We talking about Wildcatdonf or something like that, yeah I remember him giving good discussion if that's who we talking.
That was JohnKBA/Stan the Caddy. Also known as the Canadian. He posted his W2 but he was far from a good person. He would “fake it” occasionally I guess but the reason he went from JohnKBA to Stan the Caddy is because he called Clarence Thomas the “N” word and got banned.
For years my arch enemy was keysersosa. We HATED each other. He just abruptly stopped posting (I’m thinking around the Covid era) .
It’s funny to think back to getting started on the board that led to this one. For me, it was the summer of 1996, a couple months after Pitino’s championship. I was working with a Syracuse fan who’d been a good sport about the championship game, figuring they had no chance.
A couple months later he comes to me and says, “Looks like Kentucky is going to beat out Boeheim again for Magloire.” I’d never heard the name Magloire and asked him how he knew these things. And he told me about this Kentucky board -he watched it because it was much more knowledgeable than Syracuse’s board. I literally had no idea there was such a thing as an internet fan board. But he showed me how to find it, and how to sign up.
Crazy. Now that I think about it that was almost exactly 30 years ago!

Yes, that’s Grover. He’s a little nuts, but does have some stories.
Remember that guy that posted under his real name about how he was mistreating patients at a care facility (medical facility)….. who then got fired over it?
Yep and he posted his KSR link every chance he got until the mods shut it down
LOL I hated that guy, I have always been mostly a lurker but arguing with him would bring even me to post
I’ve been around here and on the previous Rupp’s Rafters board for 20+ years. I don’t post much but visit daily and sometimes several times a day. I lived in Alabama for 15 years and hence my name of ala_kat2. Now back in my home state of KY. I’ve been a UK fan since 1960.
He was an odd dude. He could post for long periods of time and act like a normal person and then you disagreed with him on the smallest thing and he’d turn into a lunatic. There’s actually someone on here now that does the same thing. lol
seemed like every year tubby would lose 10+ games, and make a sweet 16 and sign 4 3 star recruits. He'd always be there to tell you how great that was.

While never meeting him in person, I felt the loss when he passed. Just wish I had a chance to meet him face to face.
Womramp or something like that … from the avatar description.
It was Wromanp with a monster truck and a big sombrero in Ufah or Arizona, but looks like he deleted his profile. Probably woke up sober and realized what he had done.
Yes, I knew it was something like that. You are 100% correct.
Seemed a great guy, and definitely more under that sombrero than some would give credit. lol
Just from the little I know from a couple of DMs, and such.
Seemed like a guy that wanted no credit or attention. Sombrero's off to him.
