That was a good one….

Aiden is a different dude man. Smart (ish) in some ones and blind dumb in others.

Man some really great BOTL posting in this one that are gone in the wind OP too.

I think Aiden made a brief reappearance as SPAT or something.

Ya know, I understand what all the drama and stuff was about and why people got all hot and stuff, but off camera I had a very nice relationship with him. We communicated for a couple years, did trade-like deals that mostly were about helping each other, and he spoke much more calmly and was extremely polite and respectful to me.

If I snagged him a HTF bottle of Scotch and he ended up selling it, what do I care? I subscribe to the cbid credo that once you've been gifted something it's yours to consume, re-gift, sell...that's your business as the new owner.

And he sent me home grown raw peanuts a few times that I roasted and were better than any from a store! Lots of triples.

Over the years I've mentioned that it seems that everyone I like hates each other...I say it in jest , but sometimes there is truth in jest.

Problem I had was him sending me a ROAK when all this happened.

Didn’t feel right at all, felt like an attempt to buy influence. Apparently he thought I was more important than I do. If I remember right there was a Olivia G in the 5ver too Mellow

Winner, winner chicken dinner. That’s the one. Head and shoulders the absolute most infamous thread ever posted here. Seems 4-5 people created aliases and poured truckloads of fuel on that inferno. Both Lancaster and Taps got banned though Lancaster did make a reappearance as Havano Hoe or something similar. About 10 people, myself included, had to spend a week or so in timeout. It was truly EPIC.

Yes it was deleted but IIRC T-Gerb found it on the Way Back Time Machine thingy. I had it bookmarked on a laptop that has since died. I may have migrated my old favorites from that laptop to my new one before it died. I’m about to take a shower so I can run the last 177 miles home. I’ll check later to see if I have the Time Machine link.


Well, good luck then!

I was quite busy at work that day so didn’t really follow along but vaguely remember checking it out when I had some down time and was amazed at the number of posts before lunch and then a few hours later. By the time I got home I think the thread was locked and / or taken off the board.

I’ll say this, I don’t (normally) rubberneck when I’mma driving past an accident and that exchange was that gruesome accident on the Internet so I wasn’t bummed that I missed it. Too much vitriol for this hobby that’s supposed to bring peace and relaxation (…at least for me…).

I never really had anything really negative happen between Aidan / Aiden (…I do believe it’s the former…) and myself but we were “teammates” in the nOOb 2012 v 2013 battle and in the e-mails between our “team”, he was quite vocal about CRUSHING the ‘12ers. He was very passionate and didn’t mince any words. But, he was / is young so his youth can be used as an excuse / reason for his enthusiasm.
