I've never met him in person, but I did call him when he was requiring us to call him and give our "real names" to let us back on the board. I called and gave him the name of one of my friends, his major, etc. I knew the idiot had no way of verifying that I gave him my "real name" or even if I actually attended Mississippi State. He let me back on the board.
Yesterday, I was thinking that I should stop hating him for banning me over that Roy McLain ****. Although I was right and Roy McLain was wrong. Heck, most of us were right and knew Roy McLain didn't know what the hell he was talking about. I need to let it go. That was a long time ago.
Funny thing is, a couple of years ago, I sent Gene a PM asking if he would apologize to me for banning me over that (just messing with him). Believe it or not, he told me that he would apologize if I told him my ... real name. smh
