Goodbye WSO!

Fellow monkeys,

I've been active in wso since about 2006, and it's been a great experience. I've learned a lot from the various posters, made a few friends, and really enjoyed the contents. I sincerely hope that I've been helpful to others as well.

Due to some recent events, however, I arrived at the conclusion that I should no longer post on WSO. It's a tough decision given how much I love this site, but I feel that it's the right course of action.

Those of you who want to get in touch with me can still pm me.

Best of luck with everything.

After being associated with us? Good luck with that.

Fellow WoWers,

I've been active in World of Warcraft since about 2006, and it's been a great experience. I've learned a lot from the various raids, made a few allies, and really enjoyed the contents. I sincerely hope that I've been helpful to others in my clan.

Due to some recent events, however, I arrived at the conclusion that I should no longer play WoW. It's a tough decision given how much I love this game, but I feel that it's the right course of action to regain control of my life.

Best of luck with everything.

 

Sorry to hear that Brady, definitely don't agree with you on a lot of things, but you added some good insights on here, too. Hopefully we'll see you back again sometime (without the politics... haha)!

I'm guessing HBS rejected brady4mvp (again) and he is planning out his suicide. Probably traditional Japanese samurai sip-a-koo.

I can't say I will miss brady. His HBS obsession was overwhelmingly annoying, but he did give out the occasional golden nugget of advice which I think offset his generally tool-ish attitude.

Good luck, brady. I mean that even though I think you suck.

go.with.the.flowWhat are the recent events?

Just a guess, but perhaps his posts here somehow came back to haunt him in real life?

Thats fucked up

 

I'm sure this epic story will hit the journal tomorrow.

Under my tutelage, you will grow from boys to men. From men into gladiators. And from gladiators into SWANSONS.
 

Pity. Now who is going to fill Brady's shoes and elucidate on the majestic two years of sex, partying, and globe-trotting ballerism that is b-school? Best Regards, Brady.

Gayest post ever!

Why don't you create another account and come troll here sometimes without revealing who you are. But I am guessing that what you posted on here came back to haunt you in real life. Should be a warning to all of us.

Good luck with everything.

 

Brady essentially gave his identity away to anyone who was willing to pay attention, especially b-school admissions committees or future emploeyrs. Early 30's Asian male re-applicant who worked at a prop shot in Chicago, probably easy to narrow down. If any adcom member realized that and saw how pathetically he salivated about HBS they would immediately sense he was applying to b-school for all the wrong reasons (parties, travelling, tail, 'social transformation' whatever the hell that means). Not to mention he said somethings that could be interpreted as pretty racist. He also may have realized he needed a change in direction when he admitted he cried more over getting rejected from b-school than the death of an immediate family member. Obsessions are dangerous.

Ok, now that's just sad, brady. Crying over b-school rejections? Please get your shit together.

Yes, I am still directing my comments at you even though you said you left this site because I know you still check this thread.

So brady will not be taking his talents to Cambridge...unfortunate.

Im still pretty new to WSO but I did enjoy reading about the b-school admissions bullshit, no matter how much was trolling and how much was real. At least I know my chances are .001% from the get go.

Can WSO please give access to the post history of banned users like brady4mvp, mynameisgoldstein, etc? I think if we could just enjoy the work of past trolls, we wouldn’t be constantly forced to create new trolls. I’m honestly so sad I missed the greatness of Brady and Goldstein - I heard they were legendary.

I’m honestly just a troll appreciater. The reason I I got into the business was from reading @pump and dump’s old posts (I believe this was a Goldstein spin-off). I saw a couple of Goldstein’s comments but I barely remember them. Same with Brady. I will delete my account if I can see Brady’s and Goldstein’s old posts. That’s a promise
