Migs Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 Getting an IPS Driver Error and I don't know why, so: http://pastebin.com/TkRYHBZT That's lame but pretty benign IMO. Agreed. The initial post said they were "slightly uncomfortable" - felt like that was my level of feeling too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruiserBrody Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Fair enough. It's basically a thread Brody started saying he was a racist. 13 years ago and a fairly tame thread that was mostly based around language barriers in the city after growing up like Hillbilly Jim. I'm a full bleeding heart progressive now. Rainbows and Mini-Flags for everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, is that board normally that stupid/repulsive? I skimmed through it and it remained terrible for the entire 5 year duration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 It seems a bit much to keep "files" on message board posters just to bust out old links on them any time you feel the need to shame them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corona Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 I don't understand why Scooter keeps reviewing Raw. He's obviously not enjoying it, not least in part because he's writing and only paying a bit of attention. Is he getting paid for it? I'd be annoyed if an employee churned out that little effort. If he's not, what a waste of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Cooke Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 from the 4/9/01 WON Letters Page: WCW I'm going to take the cynical view on WCW's death and simply say "good riddance." At this point, selling the company to Fusient is like trying to start someone's heart again after they're already brain dead. I'm sure WCW's few remaining fans would have been happy to hear news of the sale, but really you know and everyone else also knows that unless you're a giant media conglomerate with billions of dollars to waste, like AOL/Time Warner, you're not going to be able to sustain losses of a million dollars plus a week. If folding the company is the only way to get rid of certain iron-clad cancerous contracts, and I don't think we need to list all the names, then it's worth the risk. The big names in wrestling are always going to get work somewhere, even if it's with an outfit like iGeneration. You know that somebody is going to be dumb enough to start a new operation with the talent and try to fight Vince. Admittedly, all the hard working cruiserweights are screwed. But I think this provides a good lesson in economics for everyone. The ECW talent that left for WCW and made big money, but ECW died off in the long run. WCW bit off more than they could chew with big money contracts for no-money talent, and they too, are on the way out. Everyone on the outside knew the house of cards was going to collapse one of these days, and propping it up further served no purpose that I can tell.

tigerpride Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Did Hogan get Steamboat fired for stealing the spotlight at Wrestlemania 3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodhelmet Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Are you serious? Steamboat didn't get fired. He took time off to spend time with Dragon Jr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerpride Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 but maybe it's the deal with Hogan basically having Steamboat fired for stealing his spotlight? I really don't know what other deal it could be, since the match has been covered extensively in tons of detail and really the only things of note are that they rehearsed it for months and Hogan was pissed about it being so great.

Bix Posted February 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 He's dumber that we all thought.He thinks the pre-2000 archival footage was all taken from VHS tapes. Seriously. http://www.rspwfaq.net/2014/02/wwe-network-update-day-2.html Video quality for pre-2000 stuff is hit-or-miss, as you'd expect, since most of it was mastered from VHS-quality tapes. Clearly none of the full shows were redone for the DVD era like the individual matches were, but it's not like I haven't watched a million VHS dubs in my lifetime.All videotape is VHS.

Bix Posted March 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 That's not...terrible. I mean, I think in his head it's much bigger than it was in reality, when you consider how big Bret was in places like Germany, it's far from one of the dumbest things he's said.

The Chief Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 Keith and those types annoy me in that there is literally NOTHING that they can like or praise without having to turn in their smark membership card. For example, he's been shitting all over the past few months of TV. Because except for the two or three *** and **** we get in just one show, the rest of the show SUCKS.

Clearly none of the full shows were redone for the DVD era like the individual matches were, but it's not like I haven't watched a million VHS dubs in my lifetime.All videotape is VHS. That's actually not true. There are all kinds of different videotape formats. VHS stands for Video Home System, so I think you can guess why that's what was distributed to consumers.
