So what happened to Trevor?

I'm sure he's already banned plenty of paying subscribers for questioning the overlords and BFF Trevor.

  You may want to seek help from a therapist. Nigel is right. I'm not the guy that would go around banning VIP's for asking why 247 sucks.

I was kidding. I don't think Snake's a company (247) man.

I was just wondering what happened to Trevor (mostly as a spoof). But, I remain fascinated from a business perspective.

I hope he posts here. I can understand why he wouldn't want to.

I hope no one permabans him without cause.

No one can.

It must be a relief to see how much easier your little dude is to deal with compared to all the other toddlers you used to babysit....{WHERE'S MY DRUMROLL EMO?!!?)

My partner spent last 10 years on MacRumors, personally I prefer MacScandals. Much saucier.

You and I will have a talk at some point this football season and still see if you feel the same way after that. You know me, we've hung out, and what has happened to me, is petty and bullshit.

You were a paying customer, correct?

Yes.

Yes.

Did the business owner make any attempt to retain you?

What is interesting to me, though, is why he stopped posting here.

You don't care but then you are curious?

So what happened to you, were you given a time out? Must be tough being a victim.

Making tRCMB, at best, a distant 3rd place in his life. One that is a constant bitchfest, that gets people on the board complaining to him about everything (some legit claims, and a ton of BS toddler-level stuff).

As far as posting, anytime he does, he's always going to be attacked by someone. I'd imagine that get real old, real fast.

Then outright sell it cut ties and move on. Oh right, that makes too much sense.

Know what else will be surprising? Well probably birch about msu sports later this year too. Lots of threads I reckon

Not your decision

I would imagine the message board is a minor annoyance when he gets his monthly check from 247.

No, not what I meant. I meant the debate about what an asshole Trevor is vs. how he doesn't deserve the flack is   

I am/was curious about what made him stop posting here since he posted a lot at the beginning.

Dropped his phone in the pool?

Shoulda got a Samsung. Had my phone in the pool today taking pics of my little dude and his cousins. Good times.

Unfortunately we didn't have a Jeep or hit any trails afterwards.

It's fucking horrible. I go to bed each night in tears. I tried to live a privileged life, but then I was victimized. Now I beg for the government to make things right for me, and they send me a new play toy every day.

No shit. I would have made Trevor bolley rich chedda if it was

Preciously. Obviously the check is worth more than the bitchfest

Yeah, but that's kind of playing to our strengths, right?

Look, I like the internet as much as the next guy, but some of you sound like you want to **** it or believe you already have. I get that it's fun telling people that they are awful human beings, but over their apparent lack of love for your internet is...well...odd.
Business ethics, lack of PMs, or worse yet, snarky PMs? You can be much more productive with your time on the webs and not come off as real jerk.
Many of you in this thread came here for a fresh start and to escape the Red Cedar Message Board (good lord I called it by name), but pathetic threads like this just prove that you are not the solution, you're the fucking problem.

Watch out. We've got a deep thinker here.

Meh. Just tired of the same shit. I liked the switch over here, but more and more this place reminds of the old place. I just wish we could leave people's private lives out of this (besides pics of miser's wife) and just make jokes and ogle women. It's really not that hard.

and this, my friend, is why the internets were created.

I'm not sure I see a great intrusion into people's private lives here.

You either need to find some better women to ogle or get yourself some Viagra if you're having trouble getting hard.

Apparently if you type in certain words, you get a captcha. That was weird. I guess Viagra triggered it.

I think some people have taken exception to various business practices. I don't think anyone's wife and children are being attacked.

Bump

He died. We buried him.

he's really enjoying the direction tRCMB is heading.. it had a 1% increase in page views the August after we won the Rose Bowl versus the August after we went 7-6..

that, my friend, is a statistic whose importance cannot be minimized.

Was that August or July stats? I think we need an update.

good point - I think we need clarification...

regardless, the profundity of such numbers is simply mind-boggling.

I think what matters most is that subscriptions are up. Subscriptions are probably what they are most concerned about at those kinds of sites. I for one am really thinking about paying to read articles about MSU written by people that do not know how to spell the head football coach's name at MSU.

I think the game thread page counts were an accurate representation of the demise of the board.
