It was a while ago ... there were posters who had camped out on the board all day waiting for this official BYU press release ... understanding that over the past couple of years such releases usually dealt with players being suspended etc ... it just bothered people ... I was appalled at the cliquish nature of it all.

I agree that it was harmless.. I was just pointing out the difference. The CG game was behind his back (and 30 days is a lot, but he was frustrated with it and he can do what he wants). B4H was with his approval, and we still got banned! Thanks to the B&M'ers

Sorry Lingo. Nobody means to ignore you on this one. I'm not sure how much information is for public consumption yet.

Who was responsible for the press release regarding the War of '06???

I am done trying to explain our actions. Many of you didn't accept our explanations then, and won't now. Sorry it was offensive to you.

I am mocking the whole Cougar Board vs Cougar Guard relationship ... some of the rhetoric of late between mods over there and posters here has been labeled a war.

Are the names of the B4H masterminds public knowledge already?

I'm not trying to make you angry, I'm merely pointing out the other side of the story.

I did not camp out, but when I saw the post about a press release I thought; 'oh hades, here we go again!'

Initially I laughed and then it put me off, as a result I don't spend much time on the board any more.

For the record, Bernard wasn't ecstatic about the idea from the get go and later found it got out of hand.

I still don't know who all was involved?
