mikey's Thread of Penguin Randomness

Postby **Waffles** » Tue Apr 24, 2018 2:57 pm

it seems like columbia just liked to talk trash in the politics thread

Postby **Troy Loney** » Tue Apr 24, 2018 3:08 pm

Columbia was confrontational. There were a lot of posters that got personally confrontational, seemed like he had a problem with the way the mods handled some of those folks.

He also liked to call out the mods and blame them for things, or at least that is what I gathered.

He held grudges against posters...that list grew...this is a small community, he held a grudge against seemingly half of us...and it leaked into every single thread...that was the problem. It was confined to the political thread, no one cares...he chases people around and tries to goad a reaction...that's a troll, that's why he got crushed...I'm not upset by it.

He very clearly stood out on this board as a typical internet message board big dog bully...which is fine, except that there's like 30 members here, ain't nobody got time for that...settle down, Sally...

He got 100 warnings, he continued to be a pissbaby...he finally got the action that he demanded from the mods and it was just...

Picking fights all around the board and then demanding something be done about the fights you're involved in all around the board is a recipe for a "thank you for your service... goodbye" message.

I understand that the game is content generation, but what the f is this piece by Dejan refugee Matt Gajtka:

http://pittsburghhockeynow.com/gajtka-t ... ne-enough/

Headline:
Gajtka: Three Years After Rock Bottom, Have Penguins Done Enough?
They’re still 12 wins shy of more glory, but there’s just one more hill to climb before it’s all gravy.
Hmm, headline is a bit confusing. He says they are 12 wins shy of glory, but that there is some other hill -- some other goal rather than a third consecutive Cup -- to climb "before its all gravy" and questioning whether the Pens "had done enough." What hill could that possibly be, and also they have won the last two cups since that rock bottom and the HCMJ days, where are the Pens fans who don't think its "all gravy" as is? Right away, either this article is going to blow my mind with some unforeseen goal I haven't thought of, or this article is going to make a sub-Ron Cook level point.

But the two-time defending champs are indeed through to the NHL’s elite eight, four wins from their sixth conference finals appearance in 11 years. Only two teams this century — the 2012-14 Kings and the 2013-15 Blackhawks — have gotten that far in three straight years.

Yes, winning three titles in a row would be remarkable, but making it out of the Metropolitan Division bracket would actually be the final gremlin on the exorcism list, at least for fans not old enough to remember the four-game collapse against the Islanders in 1975. Unlike the Penguins of 25 years ago, this year’s team won’t be heavily favored against Washington or Columbus, although expectations remain high.

So rest up, boys. You’re still 12 wins shy of glory, sure, but there’s just one more hill to climb before it’s all gravy.

He's just trying to get their Patreon count above 125.

It's true. mikey's hate for columbia was borne from his unrequited love that c-unit never reciprocated. What started as a light hearted tickle fight ended in message board global thermonuclear war; the southern contingent did not survive as columbia and Factorial were lost to us all.

Wow. How did I miss all of this? They were amongst my favorite posters.

I had wondered why the political thread wasn’t constantly at the top of the NHR section. Now I know why.

I also miss EPP. He made for lively discussions.

WBS are down 0-2 in their best-of-five series against Charlotte.

So in a few days Pens can call up Sprong?

I hear he's played well for the Pens so far this season.

He can be called up regardless. He's not coming from junior, he is not subject to having his team's season completed.

That said, he (and the rest of the relevant ones) will be called up if their season ends to be Black Aces...

Best part is that W-B/S was the home team but the first two games were in Charlotte. The final three games are in W-B/S because reasons.

Please blink twice to indicate you understand I was joking...

Thought the second line would've triggered you.
