Where's fergusg

Post by punchoutsb »

Him posting like this = annoying

But he was kind of a mainstay in the current scene. Did he get banned or did he turn out to be some kind of statistical based AI whose experimental time ran out?

Any idea what for? I always figured he was an alt, but it's so hard to detect anymore.

His account has been deleted and I suspect that he was banned. I'm glad because he was extremely annoying, a dishonest debater, and lowered the quality of many threads in my view.

He used to post on another boxing forum and apparently went silent after it was discovered that he had at least three accounts under different names, so maybe something similar happened here.

He was very annoying and side-tracked a lot of threads. He did share a lot of interesting links though.

I could definitely believe he had multi-accounts. I always felt he was an alt.

Sometimes he made some great arguments.And other times he would drag on an argument for ever.
Well it at least he would post.There doesn't seem to be a lot of that lately

Thanks to fergus i discovered the ignore feature. Not something i ever thought i'd use, hell not even on Brut. Boregus though, his constant spam was simply intolerable. Good riddance.

I didn't find him that annoying, but then to be fair, I tend to ignore posts of that length.

I think he is already back.He is just minding his manners.He will start posting
his 200 page essays on why he is right about some asinine topic like "why boxing needs to color coordinate
boxing gloves to match boxing trunks"
The guy could never admit he was wrong.And while sometimes he may have been right.He made you want to oppose everything he said by being a long winded dick. :lol:

Strange

Whatever the reason I'm glad the annoying cuntt seems to be gone, though he did troll another forum with three different accounts so maybe he's still here under different names. He's only the second person I put on ignore in nearly 7 years here and it seemed like his goal was to sidetrack every discussion he became involved in.

I'd just like to lay claim to being the first person to spot Fergusg was Rover. He didn't like being spotted.

I have NEVER put anyone on ignore, not goliath, not brut in any of his forms, not senior pepino, but dang it I was getting close with ferg. He wasn't necessarily a bad poster even, just annoying. Like he had often made reasonable points by the end of his posts, but it was like getting slammed in the nuts with a coconut trying to get there.
