The first rule of Fight Club is: you do not talk about Fight Club. The second rule of Fight Club is: you DO NOT talk about Fight Club! Third rule of Fight Club: if someone yells “stop!”, goes limp, or taps out, the fight is over. Fourth rule: only two guys to a fight. 1

Maybe I missed where he did some things to “deserve it”? I never minded more content and info. I’ve been on Bills message boards for 15 years. He is #1 of any consistent poster where he could not handle if someone didn’t agree with him. He would lose his mind and just snarky response after snarky response. Look at this “The Wrong Josh” thread. He had to make sure anyone that said the Bills offensive line was worse than the Cards got a reply from him. He mostly posted articles...didn’t really comment on them unless he disagreed with you. He was so obsessed with him being right that when you would argue semantics to death and then if you just straight up found something he posted in error...he wouldn’t respond. You go to that same post, you’ll see the “edited by 26Corner” a little later. You had to either agree with him or he literally hated you. His undoing with me, where I think I was blocked is when he mocked me for my posts when I kept saying Dareus and Glenn would be traded. It didn’t happen right away and he would bring that up all the time in snarky responses. Then the trades happened.... Edited August 11, 2019 by Royale with Cheese 1 1

I know a fair bit but plenty here can talk above my level and I’ll eagerly admit to learning something. I’m probably about average on actual in depth bills knowledge these days as I’m less connected to buffalo personally lately.. I’m ok with X and Os but like to think that wide angle discussions on league trends and things that are broad based Nfl I’ll dig in a little more on my takes. That dude would go down with the ship and be condescending about it even on things that were clearly not in his wheelhouse. Such is life. We all unreasonably seek validation in our own kooky ways I suppose. Hopefully he’s on to a version that’s better.
Patrick Duffy Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 (edited) I personally think it may be something else. I remember PMing him one day and I asked...."hey man, how they hanging"? His response was " twice the length of my penis now, thanks for asking". Maybe that had something to do with it? Should have added that in @Johnny Hammersticks saggy ball thread maybe.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 Scenario. If you do not like a particular poster do you Never post in that persons threads? Cuz that was COPYPASTE He’d create a new thread on the same player / topic and alter the title so that it “appeared” to be different so it wouldn’t be locked or merged.

If he wasn't receiving monetary compensation for this sort of thing, why in the world would he do that? Because he had some pathological need to be the author of most threads at this forum? Or what exactly? Doesn't make sense. I also always wondered his age and life situation. He clearly suggested that he was more "old" than "young" in a lot of his posts. Yet he didn't come across as old enough to be retired. I always assumed he was home on permanent disability or some such and spent all his time in front of a computer, alone. No way he had a family. Spent too much time here for that.

For those not in his fan club the assumption was close to that. Was he retired, and or home bound? Often I think I spend too much time here
JohnC Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 How does someone like 26Corner or YOLO get so many links to paste on the Bills and football topics? Are they getting twitter feeds that they then post? Just curious? With 26Corner it seemed as if it was almost a 24 hr. operation. 26Corner at times could be stubborn and irascible but I did appreciate his posting the links. If he was as congenial as his nemesis, YOLO, there would have been less hostility with the other members. As the old wise cooking fellow @Augie stated: It is not what you do but how you do it. 1

He wanted to be the first to 100k. That's the only thing I can think of.

mrags Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 He’s probably here under an alias. Just look for a new post and new topic ever 3 minutes with no actual info from the OP but links to Twitter. 1

In the thread, I said "Don't worry, he'll be back." Well, the pre-season is upon us, and he is not back. It looks like he isn't coming back. He's still over at the Sabres section of HFboards, so he is not dead. Any theories as to his disappearance? I find it really interesting. He went from quite literally dedicating his life to posting on this forum to nothing. What happened? it is is interesting, but he was a dick, so dont care.
