Every morning I'd wake up and check on those assholes in Trollheim on that other site until today because I asked to ban myself. Of course that was in response to them banning me from another forum and the Draconian measures they're imposing. Doesn't matter. The important thing is for the last 5 years I've been banging and talking smack with folks over there in our little haven -- and now it's gone. I insulted and got insulted and it was awesome. But I have no desire to repeat that same behavior over here so no worries. <sniff> I'm just saying it's a loss, man. <sniff> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Karen_Cooper_Incident Posted August 19, 2015 Share #7 Posted August 19, 2015 Were you ever told a specific reason for being banished? Probably not. I picked on one of the mods there, who happened to be a total douche canoe at the time, and somehow my userid could no longer log in. Tom, God rest his soul, couldn't explain it at the time.So, I proxied up and started trolling them. It's too bad too because Foo used to be the place to be, back in the day. I met some good people there for the most part. I really miss botto!#It'snotyourfault Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm friends with her on BF and she is graceful in her answers -- but I know for a fact that my departure just made her job a lot easier. It's not hard to read between the lines and when you have hardeharhar and Allen piping in about what a load of shit it is -- well not much more to say. She seems to take her position very seriously and continually mentions things like 'I have no choice my boss is watching me'. Well, there are a handful of posters in P&R that are as equally as crude and arguably way more bullying than me -- yet they get a free pass.

Allen ★ Posted August 19, 2015 Share #32 Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) The mods hate P&R and I don't blame them. It's hard to moderate, you have to have the respect of the posters first and be accepted by the regulars or they buck. Leaving it unmoderated for almost two years did not help. However, given how I was treated when I was shoved out for trying to moderate P&R I think this current round of crackdowns smacks of ego and not trying to do good by the forums.

Dottleshead ★ Posted August 19, 2015 Author Share #33 Posted August 19, 2015 Moderating politics is next to impossible. Where do the division lines start? Where do they end? I know it's hard and I know I don't want to do it. I don't like their policies but I don't have disdain for the mods. It's just a fucking stupid bike website for gawd sakes. So to alleviate the problem, they should just rid themselves of it as you suggested. Being a dick over arguing why brand X is better than brand Y is one thing but being a dick over party A or party B or C is a little more understandable. Jousting, rough play, name calling, etc... is the nature of politics. I'm not sure how you get around that... which is why being a mod of it would suck.

ahsposo Posted August 20, 2015 Share #49 Posted August 20, 2015 Best? They deserved to remove that forum.Here's one I don't think I've posted anywhere - but I could be wrong... Guy sits down at a bar, orders a drink. Gets his drink and looks at his neighbor who appears to be a pirate - Tricorn hat, big gold earring, eye patch, parrot on shoulder - the works. Guy says "Wow! Are you a pirate?""Arrrrr. I am!""I've never met a pirate! Looks like you've seen a lot of adventure.""Arrr.""Wow! You've got a peg leg! How'd you lose your leg?"Arrr. We was shipwrecked in a hurricano in the Carribean off Hispaniola. I survived by floating on a hatch cover I'd climbed onto except me right leg which was in the water. I fell asleep and woke up when a shark decided to chew me right leg off. Arrrrr.""Wow! that's incredible! And you've got a hook for a right hand! That's so gnarly! What happened to your hand?""Arrr. It was in a melee boarding a Spanish frigate in '95. Me and this ugly brute were in a swordfight and when I ran that bastard through he brought his sword down and cut off me good right hand, may he rot in hell.""Oh, Wow! And how did you lose your eye?""I was looking up into the mizzentop one morning and a goddammed seagull crapped into me right eye, arrrrrr.""Bird shit made you lose your eye?!!""Arrrr. Well, it was the first day with me hook." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
