I've temporarily closed this thread to clear the air.

We can't read PM's. I assure you all.

It's my fault that LAX got ahold of Koon's info. Irish#1 shared it with me as an unrelated third party to see if there was any truth to what Koon had shared due to its nature, and because there had been other rumors floating around at the time.

When we hear something that might be considered "alarmist" material that might throw the board into an uproar, we source it with each other to see if something legit is up, or if people are spreading rumors for no reason.

Irish#1, my bad for breaking your confidence. I sourced it with the one guy I thought would share a source if there was one to see if we needed to get ready for chaos on the board.

Koon, I assure you that your PM's are safe.

IL, no problem, we’re good.

Koon, If you’re lurking, I can assure you I didn’t share the PM with Lax. A few weeks later I had a discussion with Lion outside of IE, but did not share names. Given the nature of the information and the black eye it would have given the University not just the football program (much worse than the frozen five), I wanted to see if there were any other stories floating around to corroborate it. Given the magnitude I felt it was worth it.

My apologies that this ended up this way.

Come on.

Please keep these things to yourself and find the PM's more important... We have enemies that would love to disgrace us.

So wait. Lax got banned for sort of doxing Koon? Wasn't Koon always public? He's shared photos of himself and his wife. He talks about where he works, what property he owns in which cities, and I'm pretty sure he's shared his personal Twitter account. What did I miss?

Thanks for the new word. Had to look Doxing up... I love new words.


"search for and publish private or identifying information about (a particular individual) on the Internet, typically with malicious intent."

I am not being malicious with this. I am always trying to find a way to use a negative as the positive....

If you want to be somewhat critical of Koon, you could say he was faux outraged to stir the pot.

I'm not sure about the PM stuff, but if anyone actually thinks they have a legitimate expectation of privacy for information stored on this site... you probably don't.

That pretty much sums it up. His original handle here was literally his undergrad student ID (last name, first initial, middle initial). Tons of people here already knew who he was when he switched to "Koon" (a common mispronunciation of his surname). Can't unring that bell and cry about doxing.

Can’t believe it was Beau who pulled the trigger after all these years.

He wouldn’t have been in the field when Koon won his first “most likely to get banned” award. Before then we lost Bogs, Wooly, Buster, Pat, and Cack. STL, Chiirish, GB, Johnnykillz, Ironman, LA are basically retired.

Brian Kelly is going to outlast all of us at this rate.

Yeah, his old handle did have his name in it. I also know he asked a bunch of posters to follow his Twitter several years back so he could win some contest or bet, something about he could get more followers than someone else. I know he was running the Knute Rockne Twitter too, and possibly a few other ND related ones. Isn't there a Father Sorin account?

If you want to be somewhat critical of Koon, you could say he was faux outraged to stir the pot.

I'm not sure about the PM stuff, but if anyone actually thinks they have a legitimate expectation of privacy for information stored on this site... you probably don't.

That's what I took it as too, faux outrage Koon style. Given the above, it wasn't exactly a secret what his identity was.

I read this site everyday. Is there something I missed with a rumor? Sounds pretty damning.

Gunna miss Koon. I've met him at a tailgate, he's a good dude. Them's the breaks, though, I guess.


I still don't think anyone I ban is necessarily a bad person, but there are limits to what you can do on this board...especially if it is constantly causing headaches.


Anyone who posts pictures of themselves (and their WAGS), their first name, their Twitter handle, etc. etc. on this site as Koon and other have shouldn't feel astonished that their identity could be discovered if they have never had direct communication with someone outside of this site.

I don't advertise who I am necessarily but if someone really wanted to know they can PM me and I'll probably tell them. Why? Because I don't troll or lie or post anything on here I would be ashamed to see made public.

If you treat this site as a place to say shit you wouldn't in real life then you are in the wrong place. If you aren't authentic with what you say that probably means you are trolling.


Amen brother.



What's funny is I logged on tonight to start an "IE Trivia" thread where we could each ask a question about ourselves and see if people could figure out the answer. Probably not a great idea anymore...



(btw my question was going to be what was my avatar before Ali)


I still like this idea. I think it'd be cool.


Speaking of good NY themed avatars, I miss Ironman.


I miss a lot of our good old posters. Terry Tate, Ironman, even NDinLA. We see a lot of people come and go from here. It's sad to see people go, but it is much better to have met them at least!

I have an impressive selection of bans though if you look at it.


I think I won ban of the year one time.


I miss those awards...

You've definitely been the hammer of late. I think it's because of all the ribbing we gave you back in the day about being 13.

Terrytate is an amazing callback. That guy was great to talk with. What happened to him? Did he just fade?

I'm glad guys like Clashmore pop their heads in occasionally to say hey. Always good to see the older guard.

Clash still comes on. He just doesn't post much...or at all really.


Makes me sad.


And yes TTT was great too.


Also, 13 is a bit excessive...I was 17-19 probably. lol

Damn, Lax is banned on Good Friday, in the process taking Koon with him.

BRING HIM BACK ON EASTER!
