-----------------

I'll make this short. Giancarlo got a week's ban for saying he'd go to a gay parade and start shooting at them all.

I get a week for saying I thought Chris62's opinions must have been lost in New York's rubble as he agrees with MtG regardless. I get a week's ban MtG's justification being that I was joking about the death of 3000 people. Again, what a ****ing hypocrite, being the one who had Osama bin Laden with a target. In other words, making a humorous situation out of where more Afghan people died than died in New York.

The moderator's (well, MtG*) must be fu<b></b>cking idiots if they think these two are worthy of equal punishments. I've seen some worse things said against red_jon and Provost Harrison in the last day or two than what I said.

* I notice Ming is far more equitable with his punishments.



Frankly I agree with him.

I mentioned MtG's avatar before, and he gave me 3 long posts about how it was perfectly OK to have anyone targeted as a victim of homicide as your avatar so long as they've been nasty to you first. Or something. Anyway, the thrust of it was that avatar's killing people are fine, so long as you don't also try to register that username.

Increase Your PM Length

PH got a ban for an sustained campaign of of many offending posts which included flaming, threadjacking, off topic, and trolling.

Boddington got a ban partly from that same campaign and from an subsequent campaign of attacking and trolling against a moderator, other percieved enemies, friends of the moderator, and the rules of the site, again involving multiple posts and warnings.

The assertion that either ban (or G's) was based on one particular post is a complete lie, and worthy of further penalty. Any assertion of innocent or good intent is a lie, they all intended hurtfulness and knew it would be disruptive. Subsequent to the first banning they campaigned, including PH from exile, and now Boddington from exile, against the site adminstration and site rules, again with maifest disruptuve intent; if they were actually motived primarily with amending a percived injustice, they would had done so by private communication. Public rant on such things never gets results; it always cause some level of disruption. With their level of intelligence, you must presume they intend the ordinary and historically established consequeces of their choice to public rant, rather than make private appeal whcih sometimes gets results. Their attempt to rant about G being priviledged and protected is a lie to deflect view from their own behavior. G has been punished and likely will be so again, just as these incorrigibles will likely be so again. red-jon is equaly guilty in both these disruptive campaigns, and likewise ought to have been banned, but seems to have escaped so far. (Maybe it is your BARRETT family connections that have saved you, dear distant cousin )

All these manuvers by this clique are patently obvious, and do not require mind reading to detect. They are completely transparent despite thousands miles distance and cyber buffering. They are not fooling anybody but themselves.

I am having so much fun and self satisfaction as an volunteer prosecutor, that someone might want to ban me on the theory that it is sinful to have that much fun. Next time someone here plots a disruptive campaign, they might want to first get me on retainer$$$$$.

Suffering from ads?

I am presuming that only lying to affect the adminstration or moderation of the site would be a potential offense. They should not worry much about how posters otherwise lie to each other.

Repeated episodes over a period of many months with a recurring gang of actors is VERY strong evidence toward that conclusion. The credibility of these actors is somewhat low (at least with the administration here and many of the posters in the commentary threads) on this matter, and some exculpatory statements by them will be veiw with skeptisism, in the absense of corraberating evidence.

I don't hero-worship him, I just agree with him (and PH).

And after your attack against my country, I tried to be rational, to which you just carried on, which is why I got pissed off with you.

Of course to the mods, I deserve a ban...

You are both being warned! If you want to join the ranks of the restricted... just keep it up. You both deserve bans in my opinions... so don't push your luck ANYMORE!

If you want to trade insults... stick to ICQ or E-mail... because continuing it around here will only lead to a restriction!

Self-serving BS, with the usual selective deletion and editing of unfavorable details. You wanted to prove a point, Stew, you have a history, and I decided to cut the BS short. Red Jon's looking to do the same thing. Send me your mailing addresses so I can send each of you a quarter to call someone who cares.

BTW, the bin Laden avatar has nothing to do with a joke. I'd waste that SOB on sight without the slightest hesitation. No ****ing joke about it. Nice try at a red herring though. Let's do anything other than address Stewie's own conduct.

I live a few hundred miles East of the Pecos River, in San Antonio. I have been to Langtry and the Roy Beanm Museum, about 2.5 years ago. Its done up in very nice tourist trap fashion. The Seminole Canyon state park near there is more interesting to see.

This thread had me LMAO so many times. Jeez, I nominate this for funniest thread of the nascent New Year .

Anyway, I am in total agreement with Lefty and Chris. There has been a continual effort at pushing in order to provide a *snap* and a flame war. Gian is very easy to emit this type of snap and thus they continually harp on him.
