Yeah -- BANNED! He had received plenty of warnings but continued to break the rules. The guy's a jerk -- I don't miss him. There are other 'Puke fans around here to provide that different opinion.

Oh, but he didn't go quietly into the night, did he Taz ?
The man had several reincarnations, but each was obvious if you'd read him at all during his time here.
I was also sorry to see him go, but I ultimately understood why he was gone. This is one of the things the staff has to do to keep things the way they are.

I think that most of the regular posters here were sorry to see him go, but only because we weren't the ones that had to clean up after him all the time.

I did catch a few of his out of place posts in the lounge or Hogwash before they were edited--but only a few times. He kept mods on their toes, yet they still did a good job of keeping him in check. Finally, BH decided to give him the boot (and even then only with tons of fair warnings). He was only lovable to those that didn't have to do extra work because of his existence.

I for one wasn't sorry to see him go. Gamby has and continues to be a problem for this site and its administration. Stating that he is missed only exacerbates the problem.

Gamby uses the excuse that he uses this site to get back in touch with old friends. Might I suggest if you are one of those friends, that upon being contacted by Gamby you communicate by other means. Thanks.

Gambit was OK when he was here. He would go spells without getting out of line then he'd turn back into Gambit.

I won't say I miss him but he did like to defend that defenseless team in Teaxs. (I'll say he was fun)

Then he got banned ....Like Taz said there are other fans of that team in Texas here

Good ole 187 came back as a different user :lol: ....But of course BH caught him and banned him again..... That was funny becuase he was betrayed by his own traits

Gambit187 has been atleast 5 other user on this site and was/has been caught everytime .... That got old

I wish Gambit187 could have just followed the rules. He'd still be here now he'll always be someone else until caught. But more to the point everytime he shows up, it takes away from everyone here because it force mods to do things other than what they have set time aside to do

Yeah he was banned...... does he understand what that means (That's another question)

You've got to be kidding me!!! A thread on this guy!!! Come on people get a life. It took me about an hour to figure out what this guy was about. I turned on my ignore button and I never had a problem with him. I suggest you'll do the same. PLEASE just ignore him, I promise, if you do that he'll leave. He comes here for the attention he doesn't get at home!!

Privately, we had a few exchanges which weren't bad. He actually seemed like he could be a solid contributor to the site, but then he'd go public and ruin it for the mods.

He got a more than just amount of warnings, he deserved to be banned.

DEHog, is there an ignore button on thehogs.net, or are you speaking figuratively?

This is the worst thread in the history of this website. What a waste of time!

I personally have never been one to really be affected by what people think about me. I'm sure lots of people say things about me behind my back too... and if i was a neurotic fool... I might care. :up:
