What about gadget or whatever his name was? He was awesome at posting pro players bags and such

 

Are you thinking of The Gachet? He was an expert on all things Faldo it seemed. He hasn't been around for awhile.

[br61]

Another person who comes to mind is Sammie, who was trying to get on the LPGA Tour but had some psychological issues she was dealing with at the same time. She had a really cool golf bag, and was working hard on her game.

 

You're talking about Goobers right? I loved her posts.

 

Yes, that's correct. Very nice young lady.

 

Yep, I enjoyed reading her posts and it is very impressive seeing her deal with what she has. Screen name is goobers80.

[DavePelz4]

Sammie is an awesome young lady who has shared that she has Autism which is a neurodevelopment disorder. People need to be careful how they label this.

 

She's got a better head on her shoulders than a lot of people....and a better golf swing, too.

I couldn’t agree more.

Many, many moons ago relatively new on here and had no idea who she was or anything about her and typed something stupid and fortunately a very generous member shot me a PM right quick to get me educated. She always had interesting insights and was keenly perceptive. And quite the game.

Yeah, Hawkeye and I had some back and forths early on. I think we are good now though (? ;).

 

One of the mods actually blocked me as a result of me and Hawkeye in a thread, but I now have one go-to moderator for all questions. It worked out in the end.

LOL, blocked by a mod? All I can say is whatever you do, don't elaborate on that!

 

I think it was more a back and a forth and some hugs. ;-)

 

We don't treat you young guys right, it will just be a bunch of drooling old dudes with home health typing for us in a few years.

Nah, in a few years there will be a chip that can be implanted in your brain and by thought alone you can drive your computer. That will give the robot taking care of you time to make you some tea.

I once blocked myself for something I said. And was reported twice.

[MtlJeff]

Does anyone here remember a member that went by "frozen rope"?

 

Anyone know what happened to him? Over the years I've gone through spells of posting and then not visiting again for months/years. When I came back this last time he was just gone.

 

Yes I remember him, he used to get in some big arguments in the instructions forum

He's probably the only person I've ever truly wanted to fly out and play with, regardless of cost, just to give him heck. I remember him being very condescending and unhelpful in the majority of his posts. I sent him PM's (they were non-abrasive) asking him to explain himself. Never once got a reply.

[LeftyLuck]

This happened to me a little while back. Member will remain nameless (He/she since been banned though)

This member made a normal golf comment that I agreed with, so I gave a like. He later edited it to something controversial and unrelated, to make it seem like I had liked that comment.

 

This happened to anyone else?

Chris ^%&^%. Took "fake" online lessons with some instructors on here so he could claim they didn't know anything, touted his own favorites to a fault, been out there on at least 3 other forums spreading his own version of strange. Putting up endless swing videos that all looked the same. Literally left with a profanity laced video directed at everyone on this site, including some instructors specifically, then somehow magically reappeared as Hogan1975 and then ultimately gone forever. I was "fortunate" enough and probably not alone to receive some fairly disturbing PMs. The worst of his behavior was in several threads that simply just got deleted altogether so not much frame of reference surviving.

 

 

Sorry Lefty, I've avoided saying anything about folks that can't defend themselves and I'll avoid the public record in this case but he had issues. ;-)

 

Remember when Chris “P” posted the porn video in his blaze of glory? That guy was off his rocker. I was the recipient of some of those strange PM’s for a while. He would create fake accounts and troll my Instruction section thread.

LOL, I'd say "good times" - but he pulled that kind of stuff on Florida (Esther Rolle) - 70s reference - she would have killed him!

 

It would be insults, weirdness and then the old victim stuff and "hey, just trying to get better, just trying to get better" and "my buddy Lee" - cringe.

I don't mean to laugh but that's funny! BB

I miss MattTheTaff. His posts were legitimately funny. Do you guys remember the hot teacher thread? OP was interested in his psychology teacher or something like that. That thread went of the rails quite quickly. Some funny stuff tho

DuffnersWaggle and his epic quest for the perfect 3 used to be fun to follow, I think he tried nearly every one ever made.

There was a fellow on here, I can't remember his name, who had a WITB thread. I swear, every few weeks he had new clubs. The thread ran for a long time.

Lol! Really though, he just get a new set of irons, driver, or what have you, and then next thing you know he is talking about another new set he purchased to replace the one's he just got.
