Flaminpyro ''Jeff'' M.I.A. ???

[bennett326]

so anyone de-repping you cause they dont like your personality at this point now is a troll?
is that why Flamin was banned again?

no you dont get banned over rep im not sure about FP but IE was begging literally BEGGING to be banned in the vets section by non stop trolling of a MOD and TJ

The numbers aren't

The comment left could be

(Especially if you've been instructed by the admin not to speak to the member any more )

1. I dont owe you any explanations.

2. If you dont recognize that as a troll, then you're either lying, or not that bright.

I've explained thoroughly why Jeff was banned again. Maybe you should reread the thread a few dozen times till you get it. If you still dont get it, save the opinions because you dont belong in this conversation.

See what I mean be people being "drawn into" the drama and posting their 2 cents even though the problem has nothing to do with them?

This is why we delete fights

Honestly everyone should hug and get over it.

It's the internet after all, and yeah, there's going to be people you don't agree with all over the place...

You've just got to learn to live with them, much like how you have to in real life, otherwise we'd never move forward. Technologically, mentally, and psychologically as well as a race. It's an unfortunate fact of life but everyone is entitled to their opinions.

If they're pissing you off, or making you mad...there's respect, and it's supposed to be used.

I'm rather tired of hearing all this drama. It's making respected members look terrible over silly things.

just looking to understand everything, not knowing everything, it just looks like someone voicing their opinion of ya. if i read it right and its in response to the post i think it is. i agree completely of his opinion.

Are you trying to separate "opinion" from "trolling"?

The vast majority of stuff posted, especially about other members, is opinion
Some of those opinions are stated as trolls
Just because it is an opinion does NOT mean that it is not a troll

You and me both. Its way past the silly stage at this point. The whole thing is over a disagreement in opinions that happened 6 or more months ago.

Its fine if you agree. The troll is in the subject, and timing. Everyone is in agreement to move forward of the whole thing. Luke is just throwing in a jab to keep it going. We cant move forward if people will not stop rehashing it. If he repped me on another post, fine. Repping me on this thread, at this time is just stirring the pot, and keeping the drama going.

i dunno man, thats why i guess i'm asking. I mean all i see is valuable community members being put off to the point of leaving. Fighting back in bad methods * which i don't condone*, and being punished for it. Atleast thats the way it looks to me. Granted i probably know 2% of whats happening and should probably just shut up. I just dont like to see that kind of thing happen in a place i've come to enjoy very much over the years.

I'd love to see you all play nice. But if that can't happen, cant you just impose the ignores for people, instead of waiting to see them react poorly and then banning them?
greater of two evils i guess.

This kind of makes me sick. Maybe it's because of that one time that IE wished me a Happy Rosh Hashanah, recognizing we were both Jews, but....

I dunno. I don't think I have had any quarrels with anyone on the forum. Sure, I have had disagreements, but no clashes. And I can see why people would get offended by a trolling, but still. It's rather silly, don't you think? What's the point of even arguing on this forum, anyway? It doesn't influence reality at all, does it? (Trolls rarely occur over sales, so that's a no ).

Anyway, I just want these fellas back.

Wouldn't THAT be nice

Unfortunately, that path leads to fascism

Also, then people will jump up in arms about us restricting who they can interact with

Finally, it then eliminates the possibility that they will ever work it out

We have had several members, who have had fights, that get along fine now (or have at least agreed to coexist)

Peace,
dave

**EDIT** -- If I take it one step farther and call up Hitler and/or Nazis, could we then invoke Goodwin's Law and close the thread? :crackup:

 

[Wolfman29]

LOL. That would make me so, SO happy, Dave.

What it really is that the Anti-TJ group is trying their hardest to get me kicked for good. I cant tell you how many conversations have gone on behind my back, including secret banning polling. Seriously. How I know is they actually tried to recruit some of my friends. Not a very bright move. Its been going on for a long time. You'll notice they are trying to get the forum to believe I'm the only one trolling, and its all my fault Jeff got banned. They are throwing everything they have at me. The reason why they are getting so angry is that its not working, and backfiring on them. They thought I would freak out, and get kicked for good. What they didnt consider is that I've been done with the drama show for a while. I still bust chops, but thats my personality. But I'm done playing games. I dont think they believe it apparently. Its the whole reason why this is being blown up to the proportions it is.

To me its all really petty. I'm an upfront person. I dont play the backstab game.
