A lot of us, even the board owners, visit the mwcboard at least every so often. Its established, has a number of fans from each school, and you get insight to the rest of the conference. And the board has been going in one form or another for a long time. Longer than most websites. The previous owner, a UNR fan known as Mugtang, recently sold the board to a BSU fan, Jeffkills. Jeff isn't the most active, but he would normally frequent the site enough. And now, it seems, he forgot to pay the host services. So the board has been down the whole day.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again; somehow, someway, its always B(insert Y or S here)U's fault!

I think it's weird that MWC board will never tweet, then randomly tweet out a link to some very political topic that's happening on their board, and nothing else. I like mugtang though.. him and I talked about doing some collab work a few years ago involving MWCboard and the CFB Stats website he started.

You should take over the MWC board.

I have always enjoyed visiting that board. It's fun to talk smack with fans from other teams, and getting different viewpoints. Glad to see the board is up and running again.

Tried to a few years ago. Now... eff. I don't even have time to put blogs on this site, much less take over a very needy message board. lol.

Mug seemed to run it pretty well.

Jeff has been on my ignore list for years. So…. Yeah.

Well, the board is back for another month, thanks to retrofade, a Fresno fan, paying the bill. But it seems Jeff has now made it where a second party cannot do that again. And all attempts to contact him go unanswered...

Yeah, really missing mugtang as the owner of that board.

Just remembering this because it was so bad, but when MWCboard wouldn't sell to Chris and I we started our own MWC website (some of you may remember it), very little traffic, we eventually shut it down because it wasn't viable. Too bad we couldn't make that work.

Might dust that thing off just in case.

Uhhhh.... we kind of killed it. And the brains behind the operation kinda started his own tavern and added a wife and two kids to his agenda as well, sooooo... I doubt that'll happen unless I get -really- motivated.

Gotcha.

From what I understand the owner has not only blocked the folks actually paying the bills but has flat out refused to entertain selling the board to someone to carry on. If he winds up getting incarcerated for his shenanigans it could be the death of the what is supposed to be the longest running conference message board on the interwebs.

No idea. But it seems he's running for Governor in Idaho.

Felony drug possession and endangering a child per the arrest report.

My guess is a DUI while on drugs with his kid in the car.

That is a pretty serious accusation. Do you have a link to any of this?
