    What happened to Tex? I believe he and Storm knew each other IRL. Don’t know if they were friends.

    Before he left, I seem to recall Tex shifting away from the hard right conservatism.

    He seeemd like a good dude. Actually met him once.

    TBBS/WF sure has seen a lot of crazies over the years... hard to know which ones were trolling and which ones were serious. Without naming names I can think of about a dozen or more former posters who were probably trending the same way as Storm.

    I’ve been a member of WF since it opened and was posting at TBBS since 1999 so I think I’ve seen it all.

    it's comforting to think WF was the crucible for the current alt-right scene.

    Same. I met him and Ash for dinner once when I was on a business trip.

    His Facebook indicates that he's much more center/center-left these days.

    Now that you mention it, I don’t really talk to or connect with any WFers outside of the board. I kind of like keeping this separate.

    There is stuff I can talk about here that I really can’t talk about anywhere else. It’s like a nice escape from reality sometimes.

    eh. I'm pretty much the same whereever I go - here, facebook, RL, Omaha ... I've never been able to ... 'switch hats', so to speak, and become someone else in another place.
