Re: I Got All Sorts of Warpath Questions
 

[quote=punch it in;1163346]Exactly who I was going to mention. I have only been here since pre-season 2012. So I cannot relate to most of this stuff. As i was reading I thought about the GOAT. I never had him pegged as angry. I think he got read all wrong. He said some absurd things, but I always thought he was cool about it. I was actually surprised when he got banned. Him and G tripp.[/quote]

Maybe angry isn't the right word let me say I thought he had a "characteristic old man quality in his posting" I was really surprised when he shared his age and he was younger than I thought. I also knew that I was most likely crazy if I was agreeing with him.

[quote=TheMalcolmConnection;1163356]I can't even find the Question 3 thread. And mooby, I'm like a fine wine, I only get better with age. Speaking of which, I wonder what he's doing right now...

"Washington Redskins[edit]
Jackson signed with the Washington Redskins on April 13, 2012.[4][5] At the start of the training camp, he was placed on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list due to a calf injury.[6] On July 30, 2012, he was cleared by a doctor to practice and taken off the PUP list.[7] On August 31, 2012, Jackson was suspended indefinitely for violating the league's substance policy, and will be eligible for reinstatement on August 31, 2013.[8] A year later, he became eligible for reinstatement.[9]

After serving a year and a half long suspension, the NFL announced that Jackson would be officially reinstated on May 6, 2014.[10] The Redskins terminated Jackson's contract soon after, however Jackson would re-sign the next day.[11][12] On July 9, 2014, he was suspended indefinitely for a second time for another violation of the NFL drug policy, making it the fourth time Jackson has been suspended by the league.[13][14]"

LOL, wow. Man loved some drugs.[/quote]

What if his entire NFL career was just a long con to earn enough money to buy the dank for the rest of his life? Maybe he accomplished all the goals he set.

I also tried walking down memory lane, I found a thread where SS linked to ?3 but the link is no longer active. It seems ?3 will only live on in the minds of those who remember it from the long long ago...

Yup. He inboxed me once about how he appreciated me and knew I understood him. Something like that. I totally hear you though i never wanted to be guilty by association with him. Lol.

Re: I Got All Sorts of Warpath Questions
 

A lot of people just come and go over the years. The actual list of banned people is pretty short, it's mostly just spammers. You have to be a raging asshole to get booted. Even then I probably give people way too much slack.

That said we have had a couple of people cross the line big time. Like I'm talking personal threats behind the scenes. Things that just went way too far. The internet tough guy thing is one thing, but these days with how easy it is to google someone and find out personal info, it's not funny.

What about Hog 1? Also i forget his name but he was building a house in the country somewhere and would post pics of it? Im pretty sure he made more than one derogatory comment about more than one type of person and got banned. Anybody know who im talking about?

I remember trolling 12th and Hess at the same time. I was like bro why are you trying so damn hard with this one she's not even remotely hot enough to be worth the crazy.

Took em both out at the same time, she was all offended. I BET YOU MASTURBATE IN YOUR MOMS BASEMENT SCHNEED!

Well I mean of course I have and I still wouldn't touch you with a 10 foot pole.

I was an asshole lol.

Oh my god yeah, roulette. I got so frustrated explaining odds and why doubling your bet breaks down because of the greens. You put a profile warning on me because I got so bad about it (deserved).

But we all know I'd have to do it all over again, lol

Oh, so you actually started this on Yahoo back in the late 90's? So, the Warpath has been around in some form for almost 20 years? Wow!!! That's a long time commitment to something that's basically a hobby. But I'm glad you got this site up. I figured all that was still active was the official board and whatever Facebook groups that were created out there. I'm not Facebook though.

There was a short period of time where I served as a moderator on a music forum years ago. It is so funny, but yet concerning, that people could get all worked up over getting called down by the forum mods that they try to threaten them. Of course, I always went by a moniker that did not have anything to do with my real name for that reason. I eventually told that forum's owner that I didn't have time to police the board anymore. Eventually, I left it.

I was like you, unless there was someone who was such an obnoxious asshole that I had no choice but to boot them, I usually just took the approach of editing their posts until they got fed up and left on their own. In a way, I always felt having some posters who would cause mild conflict or disagreements made the board somewhat fun, but people often carried it too far.

Re: I Got All Sorts of Warpath Questions
 

OK, so someone mentioned a guy named Smootsmack. Sounds like you guys really liked him. He was an industry insider? Do you know who he really was? Also, going back through the old pages of this board and some of the links to the internet archive stuff that MTK had posted, I saw some names that don't look like active members now. There's a JoeCrisp (looked like he had his own picture as an avatar), there was a Ramseyfan, and a Beemseven or something like that. There were other names that don't look familar, but for some reason, those names stood out to me. Oh, and MTK, there was a Matty72 or something like that. Was that you?

I also had to chuckle when I saw a thread title back in 2002 where it was said that the Redskins would be in the Super Bowl in three years, lol! Well, thinking about it, that would have been in 2005, and the 'skins did make the playoffs and did get to the divisional round. Not quite the Super Bowl though.

Re: I Got All Sorts of Warpath Questions
 

Yeah, SmootSmack was well-liked by everyone here. Definitely had some great insider information. Great guy.

I was probably FD... lil bit of an asshole, but cool. hog stops by I thought...

Another good poster was the guy who was made a mod then disappeared...think he had ownership interest in a restaurant in DC. Think he was going through stuff. Knew a lot about wine.

When I first started posting on here - and I was posting alot to say the least. Well anyway someone called me annoying or something. Did not really care. Lol. I have been called worse. But I remember Smoot saying something to the effect that "punch is bringing alot to the table, etc".
I immediately felt credible - I did not even know about his espn credentials but i could tell he was a very respected member in here.
Definitely miss his knowledge and his inside knowledge of the team. Though he would often tease us with it you knew if he hinted at something it was probably for real. Great dude. I remember his last post was when this board was freaking out about something silly and he said he was "taking a break from the WP". So maybe he will come back. Hope so.
