Perhaps if I payed the ransom, I could post stupid shit like this, without having some assclown want to lock it.
A f'ed up day here too, I can't believe I go here to relax... |

I didn't lock your post because it was stupid; although misleading people into reading your post and hoping the good-will generated will cause them to join the NRA, etc., IS a stupid idea.
I locked it due to flames, as explained. Here's a free tip: Tricking people generally pisses them off, and is not conducive to getting your message across. |

Since we are sharing tips this evening, I have one for you:
Tip: most people are smarter than you give them credit for. You locked my thread because you didn't like it. PERIOD, END OF ARGUMENT. Any bullshit excuse that you fart out it merely further insult to my intelligence. You say that I violated board policy by having a pissing match with Quietshoez. Two posts between Quiet and myself hardly constitutes a flame war. The post was locked within 30 seconds of Quiet's last post- just tell me that you subject ALL posts to such a level of scrutiny. Yeah, of course you DON'T. We ALL didn't fall of the turnip truck yesterday, you know. Just have the cojones to say "yeah, I locked your thread because it bothered me." If you said that, you would be "moderator of the week" material, IMHO. |

The post was locked within 30 seconds of Quiet's last post- just tell me that you subject ALL posts to such a level of scrutiny. Yeah, of course you DON'T.

If you said that, you would be "moderator of the week" material, IMHO. I COULD say that, but it would be a lie. Locking was for the reasons specified. Here's another free tip: Your making too many unfounded assumptions about others has caused you to err. If you have any problems with my moderating, you can either report me to the PTB, or take it to e-mail. Mine's listed. Your call. |

Quoted: Wrong. Post was locked for reasons stated, PERIOD. No, it wasn't. Give the heroic, self-rightous explanations a rest for the evening, they don't suit you well. Flames and the foul language used were the criteria. And by the way, just HOW do you know what "level of scrutiny" I (or any other Mod) employs? DELIGHTED that you asked that, RAF. Here is what I use to evaluate the mod's level of scrutiny: how long does it take the thread to get locked, and how serious a violation of board policy was it? In this case, it was less than 30 seconds, and the 'pissing match' criteria was barely (if at all) established. That tells me that you were just waiting with baited breath for a reason to lock the thread. Come to think of it, you may be doing the same thing now, with this thread, so I will STFU about this. I COULD say that, but it would be a lie. Locking was for the reasons specified. Here's another free tip: Your making too many unfounded assumptions about others has caused you to err. No, it hasn't- Since all my 'assumptions' were correct. If you have any problems with my moderating, you can either report me to the PTB, or take it to e-mail. Mine's listed. Your call. Sorry man, you've mistaken me for a whiny little bitch (who cares)---I'm a big crabby bastard (who doesn't give a shit for your explanations). Get it straight! [}:D] |

"Here in the Florida swamp we find many species of the migratory "Assclown", which makes its summer home in Michigan. And here are two examples obviously enamored with each other going through the mating ritual customary to their species which looks very much like fighting, but is only a prelude to...oops! I think they're done. Lets take our cameras over to the flock of Egrets.

FWIW, I am glad that you guys (quietshoez & dissipator556) got things worked out.
I am not trying to flame you or anything, but please consider this though... When you say things like: "now you know why this place isn't getting 60 bucks from me anytime soon." that is kinda crappy. The money is used for 1 thing: To help pay for the bandwidth & hardware that this website needs to keep running, so more and more people can enjoy it, learn new things, and above all, make new friends. The little extras that the team members get for their money is really just our way of saying thanks. Eric |

And here we have the Progenitor of the flock, Assclown 556. Notice how he uses his rear to smother the grinning Queitshoez, hence the name, "Assclown". A disgusting debacle.

EricE, your point is well received. I weigh those same considerations against the fact that I resent "payers" thinking they are somehow "better" than their non-paying counterparts. Something about that really chaps my ass, but it is hard to adequately vocalize it to you.
Eventually, I will probably ante up and pay the 60 bucks (more as a gesture of respect and thanks to the Avila family, than anything), but in the mean time, I will squawk and holler about why this site hasn't gotten my money yet. You see? I get the best of both worlds that way. Anyway, it's been fun- the AR, the dog, the wife, and Dissipator556 (NOT necessarily in that order) are off to bed. [sleep] |

Don't you remember the 2APR2002 post, a late April Fools joke with the same subject line. The poster nearly got banned.
Crying about scrutiny from raf is nonsense, and it is attempted distraction from the fact that you are a socially clueless oaf. Consider yourself lucky. You COULD be banned, instead of free to whine about censorship. |

Hey, don't pervert the assclown gene pool, lest we come up with a special designation for the "grimshaw" species of the assclown genus. I'm thinking...I'll sleep on it, and let you know what hatches (pun intended). |

Man, Dissipator556, I don't want to get you started, and I did not read the locked thread, but you really need to listen to yourself. Just a suggestion. If you had paid the $60.00 you could read the thread posted early today about just such things. Team threads don't leave that Forum, but I will tell you there is a thread dedicated to exactly this kind of crap. The point was made that this stuff is always done by those who are not Team Members. Funny thing. Less than 12 hours later you make the point. This Board is not your personal hissy-fit sanctuary. [>:/]
Edit: Okay, I read your locked thread. I didn't see anything terrible there that [b]you[/b] did. Quietshoez is a man I've dealt with off the board and he is okay. You were a bit silly, though obviously well-intentioned. I, of course, have no clue why Quietshoez went ballistic. RAF certainly had little recourse. Not because of you though. Don't you think the presumptuous tone of being a "mind reader" is a bit much (in this thread)? Have a good night's sleep, I bet all will be well in the morning. Group hug then, I guess. Take care!

Has nothing to do with paying. [%|]
Edited to add, my demeanor has nothing to do with payment status or lack thereof. Also adding, from a post of Kevin's on 4/3, replying to a thread that was started on 4/2: Hate me if you want but I don't want to see a post like this unless it's real!!! ==== ==== ==== ==== 4/3 - Locking this yesterday may have been a bit overboard but the fact this bad joke was a day late in appearance was what led to the reaction. The straight title of "OSAMA BIN LADEN CAUGHT IN INDIA!!" appearing at noon on 4/2 gave hope that this was a credible post. To discover it wasn't real was pretty disgusting to a lot of us. Plain & simple, most everbody here wants to see Osama's head on a platter. It hasn't happened yet but if*/when it does we want it to be a real story we're reading. * May not be a complete head, DNA verified skull fragments or ashes will do. I will forget this ever happened. |

The Assclown does not mate for life, as some species do, and in this footage we can see two Assclowns smothering the smile in what is known as a "Doublefeed". The smile of Assclown 556 now becomes a desperate matter of survival in the presence of an Alpha-male Assclown.
