Isn't it weird that...

[Pat_Lowe]

redrooster, Homicidal Hank and Pepping it are gone...all at the same time. But nonetheless I hope they (he) comes back. They were usually pretty knowledgeable on certain topics and did know their stuff.

[Manassa]

RedRooster isn't the same. Homicidal Hank, Pepping It, Megaman and Revolver are all one person.

Yes that seems about right, but redrooster is gone at the moment to. Its weird

[JohnThomas1]

I'm sticking by my early prediction red indeed is at least one of these hombres. Back in the days of being able to see what threads were being viewed by whom and when all but proved it back then for me. REd turning up within 3 mins of Pepp or whoever, both remaining idle at the same times even if it was 7 minutes only during a 2 hour stint then leaving within a couple of minutes of each other. Convinced this little black duck that's for sure.

This board is surprisingly free of alts, except with the aforementioned.

I know JT has no time for him, but I kinda liked the rooster.

[Duodenum]

Personally I could also disappear at any time. Meanwhile, ChrisPontious has also been missing for a week, and showed some promise of becoming my very own special antagonist. For the moment, I'm counting on you, JT, to provide that adversarial viewpoint to make me feel important! (Perhaps something derogatory about Greg Page will trigger a defensive response, or praise of Holmes.) Meanwhile, I've got to concoct some provocative opinions to inflame posters with! (Think some badmouthing of Ali will set CM Clay II off? And where's a "thumb's down" icon when U need one?)

I have to apologise mate, i've been flat of late and unable to get the jizz for a long post or two. I did see one comment you made in the last day or so i could challenge you on if you like. I might even have the upper hand on this one

:D

[My dinner with Conteh]

Maybe they just holiday togther.

Yeah, or just another next door neighbour lmao

:DI kinda figured you had the upper hand on me all along! (My own mental energy seems to have also fizzled out.)

Nah, i only pick you up now and again because you post so much and with so much depth. Nobody could do this and not make the odd small mistake. Most everything you post is absolutely smick. You've been like a breath of fresh air really and have given me many a reminder of the most forgotten of subtle points and trivia from back in the 80's. You and i could flap our gums for hours over a beer and the 80's, i bet.

Talking of missing posters, why the hell is Luigi at boxrec now? I haven't seen him here for ages...I miss him and CM Clay getting into it...it's good for a few chuckles.

I'm simply trying to empty my mind of intrusive thoughts through my posts. Sad to say, I'm using ESB Classic as a mental trash bin. (I guess that would make the General Forum a cesspool?)

Thanks, but naw, I'm just the most bombastic and pompous new poster. I am having some fun passing a little time though, and the feedback's been a real kick. (Maybe that's a sign I need to get a life!)

I too am at Boxrec under my new name Elton John.

You can also find me at cyberboxing zone keeping a low profile as Ultimo in order to avoid getting banned for a third straight time.

I´m not at boxrec often, I have there only like 30 posts, ESB is my favourite forum... :hi:

Oh he makes a return. Thats good, do you know where Hank has gone to?

[McGrain]

Maybe they just holiday togther.


I can imagine them all in some horrible caravan telling each other how right they are.

delete.

What makes people think I've been gone. I have been here all this time.
Hank is probably taking some time off. I'll have to check if his name is still listed as a member.

[Marciano Frazier]

The only identities on here I'm really convinced are the same individual are Revolver and Homicidal Hank. Hank turned up shortly after Revolver was banned, he has the same writing style and personality (condescending and self-assured, likes to argue from record statistics or weight/age numbers and refer to various top fighters as "journeymen," likes to say someone "whipped" someone else, etc.), and has the exact same opinions on nearly every topic, including all kinds of extremely eccentric ideas all of which no two people would have(the claim that WWII severely depleted the talent level, but only at heavyweight for some reason, that Marciano ducked Nino Valdes, that Hagler should have won easily and by a wide margin against Leonard, that virtually all old-time fighters, especially Marciano and Louis, are badly overrated, that Jersey Joe Walcott and any fighter without a nice-enough win-loss record is a "journeyman," that there was a giant explosion of talent in the heavyweight division simultaneous with Marciano's retirement, that Holmes should be the #2 heavyweight of all time after Ali, etc.). If they aren't the same person, I think we may have to reassess the evidence for psychic linkage and reincarnation.
On the other hand, Redrooster and Pepping It show different-enough writing styles, character traits and opinions that I'm not entirely conviced they're aliases as well.

What was he banned for?

[Marciano Frazier]

What was he banned for? Well, in his new identity, he's ceased or at least decreased the activities which got him banned as Revolver, but I'd say he was banned because(and these reasons are cumulative and interlocking):
He was borderline spamming on and on and on about the same two or three topics for several months, making literally about a thread per day to attack Marciano, along with a seemingly endless string of attacks against Louis and nearly everyone Marciano or Louis ever fought. But posting so many threads about the subject that nearly half the front page was made up of them wasn't enough; he actually went around hijacking unrelated threads to turn them into further debates about his same little circle of topics(eg. when someone made a thread about Zora Folley, he'd go in and say, "Well, he was better than Ezzard Charles" and turn the thread into a debate about Charles and Marciano). He behaved in a fashion which was extremely condescending, smug and disrespectful(which was especially annoying in light of how ridiculous so many of his opinions were and how paper-thin the arguments he used to support them- in fact, at this time, he argued based on virtually nothing but ages, weights and win-loss records), and made numerous unsubstantiated and almost-certainly false claims, like that he had a Ph.D, was a statistician, was a college professor and professional researcher, had a personal library in which he kept microfilms of past boxing periodicals(and all the while he was saying this he never displayed any knowledge that couldn't be pretty readily found on the internet). This was all made yet still more aggravating by his proclamations that his viewpoints were "empirical fact" and that he had "proven" various subjective qualitative ideas "scientifically".
At first, he would also descend into flaming and verbally abuse his opposition, but toned that down after being banned once and allowed by the moderator to return. However, his various other activities continued, including the constant, repetitive spam threads, thread hijacking, condescension, fraudulent claims, and all-around disagreeableness, which was severely hampering discussion in general(this wasn't like your typical aberrant poster- literally about half the threads on the front page would be Revolver threads aimed at accomplishing his one-man crusade to revise boxing history, and most of the ones that weren't started by him were hijacked by him) and destroying the quality of the forum. He was then banned a second time, before returning as Homicidal Hank- and in this third incarnation, he's at least learned to present his off-the-wall opinions in appropriate context and without spamming, and behaves in an acceptable manner to allow for sound discussion.

God Almighty...it sounds like a virtual Mad Max post-holocoust lawless world.

Glad I missed all that.

Well it sounds like these two are def the same. You could be describeing a much less intense version of Hank in the above.

Christ, I think what you're describing would actually make me want to kill.

Apart from that microfilm/professor stuff, that would be a hoot:lol:

Like I say, aside from their more obvious similarities and the timing of their appearances, look at the set of all the unusual peculiarities they share(which I listed earlier on) and it will become apparent that if they aren't the same person, they must have done a Vulcan mind-meld.

Christ, I think what you're describing would actually make me want to kill.
That's how most of the forum felt.

Personally, I thought the microfilm/professor stuff was some of the funniest material he had. The whole episode was somehow funny, sad and unspeakably annoying all at the same time.

[achillesthegreat]

MF sums it up.

[Bummy Davis]

They walk alike, they talk alike, there Identical cousins...H.H. + Revolver

[SuzieQ49]

Bump.....Homicidal Hank, Pepping It, Megaman and Revolver are all back now as Mr. Marvel. Check the posts and opinions and writing format and sly jokes of each of the following posters...everything is identical. Mr. Marvel aka Revolver is back! the zodiac has finally come out his hybernation! Mr. Mavel is actually alot less laid back now, he is nowhere near as arrogant now with his ridiculous opinions, but the Zodiac as come out of his fox hole!
