What makes an "insider post?" I'm genuinely curious about that.
They have connections you and I don’t. It’s not rocket science. They don’t do it to feel big and bad. They do it because they’re fans, have some info to share, and we all want to know.

Heck, they probably get the same kind of excited when they get info given to them just like we do when it gets passed to us from them.

Genuinely curious why you are worried about or care about the why the majority of the board thinks of certain posters as “insiders.”

I'll go. It's not an issue. Sorry for troubling you.

It's just kind of a joke the level of which some here use vague language and everyone annoits them as "insiders". I mean, anyone can do that. Miss Cleo made a lot of money out of it.

Again, if it someone makes you feel like you have some "inside" track on the program, so be it. I just can't help noticing that a couple of the "insiders" here are slightly behind what is broken on other platforms. Almost like they are just a little quicker than you at reading stuff?
You’re certainly entitled to your opinion, and I’ve definitely detected people try to “Miss Cleo” their way to insider status here.

However, the four or five noted “insiders“ here have more than proven themselves throughout the BU years. I don‘t think anyone really thinks it’s TU or JW, but probably some lower profile staff member or someone with a connection to staff members. I would suspect that they understand what they’re allowed to share and what they aren’t. Probably even sometimes utilized to throw something out into to world just for giggles.

In summary, I think there are posters/posts where you would have a legitimate argument. I don’t think this is one of them.

Sincerely, can someone please clarify what the latest was with Storr. I know that was a meme on here a few days and then everyone freaked out. Did something actually happen (i.e. another school making a push), or was it just speculation?

Why do you people only want liars and sheep here? What's wrong with truth?
You want the truth?

1)He called that it was going to happen. Whether it be "inside" information or not, he provided his thoughts months ago. It doesn't matter where he got the information, how he got it or when he got it. He passed that information on.

2)It happened

Those are indisputable facts.

Other facts:

3)You don't know ANYTHING about that person. Absolutely nothing. That can literally be Derek Piper and none of us would ever know. You're calling out a computer screen..

4)For you to come to this board and ridicule people that you don't know and proclaim them to be liars.....that's bogus.

Those are all facts of the matter.

Be better.

I'm sorry, dude or dude-ette, but being 5 minutes behind a tweet on Twitter doesn't make you and insider no matter how much people here believe you are.

ooof, where's the face pal emoji? hottest of hot takes. Indy has a proven track record and we're very fortunate he shares liberally with the unwashed
