It's happend

Hey Rob..

You happened to log back in at an Emotional and frustrating time for some. Posting that 'this place sucks and I don't want to be a part of it' was probably taken by whoever banned you as not wanting to be there anymore.

I imagine that you got caught in a frenzy. Someone opened the door, showed you out, and slammed it...

It's unfortunate because the last week or so has not been pleasant on the boards.

Not trying to start anything here, or say what was done was right or wrong, but just adding a different perspective.

Yes, it does ring a bell and both statements are true. The first quote is reffering to how b&-hammer happy and all around paranoid the Admins were being on that site and that I was surprised that I wasn't banned for stating the obvious. Never Goatsed the place but if I was going to get banned it would have been worth it.

As my ban message clearly states "You have been banned for the following reason:
No reason was specified.

Date the ban will be lifted: Never"

So yeah, I don't know why I was banned. I didn't break any of the rules and I wasn't Goatseing the place. Just answering a question that someone asked that I understood to mean that they wanted to get banned. So I told them how to do it, didn't actually do anything myself.

See, both of my statements are 100% accurate.

Even puff can't give a reason for my ban so if they don't know why I was b& how am I supposed to know the reason?

Cheers,
Rob

I don't think you're trying to stir anything up. In fact, I'm one of the many that got emotional and frustrated but I didn't pull the trigger and spam the place with Goatse.

Simply stated my thoughts on the new site and that is in no way against any of the rules...

It's all good, I may just get behind 7 proxies and have a little fun with ol' puff. I mean if I'm going to do the time I should probably retroactively do the crime.

Probably won't though because I really don't care enough. I've just got a mean side but it very seldome takes controll and I've got better things to do with my time.

Cheers,
Rob

A paraphrase.

I would have sent the Hog after ya back in the day and then banned what was left of ya. Difference is that you would have gotten a pithy explanation in the bye bye. They are probably too busy to put any creativity into the work right now.

We are glad you are here now. And it's time to man up a bit on the past.

Puff mods should do the same.

Yes, I certainly was pissed off because of some stuff that went on in another section of the forum that got deleted all together and some stuff relating to PM's being intercepted/read by the mods/admins.

Yes, I was being inflamatory and I was voicing my thoughts but I didn't break any rules of the board.

That was a funny paraphrase though.

In the section of the site that got deleted I said to the admin:

"You know, puffer fish is called fugu.
You might want to try sounding that word out. Fugu"

Very subtle or maybe not but that didn't get me banned because everyone else was joining in on the fish bashing.

Cheers,
Rob

I read it. Not very subtle to me but I'm the sensitive type.

I wish you were a tax accountant with the same passion directed towards the IRS. Just was working on mine tonight.. arrgh.

lulz, if I wasn't just an internet superhero I might have tried the same stunt with the IRS but alas I can't afford that kind of bravado. My finances won't allow it.

You know, I'm glad you said it wasn't subtle because I wasn't certain if he was going to understand the message I was trying to put forth.

Cheers,
Rob

Dave, this is why I have always respected you as a man and a BOTL.
I would like to use this opportunity to apologize for my outburst last night. Not only to the couple of members I directed it at but to the whole community. I have many here, and there that I call friends and I want it to remain that way.

The thing to remember is that we all have one common bond that brought us together and that is the love of the leaf. Regardless of our differences in opinions we will always have that thing in common. I just hope that we can soon put all this stuff behind us and together try to help new and old members alike to become a bit more educated about this passion of ours.

Once again I want to apologize to the community for my actions last night.

Donnie, I don't know what you did last night, not sure I want to know *nudge nudge wink wink*

Fact of the matter is I can be an a-hole and it really comes quite naturally to me.

Whatever I said on any board was directed at the entity known as "The Board" and not neccesarily at any single person. I was just speaking my mind and that's not about to change. The Admins/Mods are representatives of that entity so they got the horns. Though I don't really think I made any personal attacks or overly harsh.

After all, nobody got "Goatsed" so it's all gravy under the bridge.

Cheers,
Rob

Thank you for not Goatseing the board. I have seen that rather peculiar pic before and it is not pretty (if you don't know what it is folks please do not google it)

^^^^^ Yeah, what he said. Do not go looking for it as it's rather disgusting.

BTW, I never intended to Goatse the board nor give anyone a hard time, it all started because I was lamenting the death/transformation of CS in a section of the board that only other Gorillas would have seen.

I think puff over-reacted to my post and ended up upsetting other folks that just would have seen my sulking for what it was.

Cheers,
Rob

I would imagine you have much better things to do with your time.

Obviously if I were going to do it I wouldn't first announce it here. Please, the good lord gave us all brain cells, use yours.

Sorry for misinterpreting your innerweb bravado. Maybe you have more brain cells than I give you credit for.

Looks like the DRAMA forum was moved underground so only Mods and Admin can read it after a suggestion about negative threads not looking so hot to new members.

hmmmm...

Maybe they should move John's comments undergound too. They were way more offensive than anything else I've read over there.


What can I say, the guys a weiner!
