I haven't been on here much, just here and there. I browsed the NY Hometown forums and saw that he and Hoplite have not posted in a while not even a new Calverton thread. Then I saw Hop was shipped out (from the care package thread in NY thread). Then while browsing, I saw a Free Balzac72 sig line. I see his profile but it says last login Sept. 21. Is he punished or something? Trying to find him since I only met him once more than a year ago. I would have posted this in the Hometown but it kinda looks slow so I'd thought I'd take my chances here since more people are active here. Anyone got the info?

No free speech here. No freewill. Think as they do. Do as they do or be banned At least that's how they are calling it over at pre-ban.com. He violated the CoC too many times and was banned.
|
|
Awwwww not this shit again! This has been clearly dealt with and explained time and time again.
|
|
It is a better place without him ---- he was believing that "he was above the rules"
Good riddance to bad rubbish. |
|
I haven't been on here much Not is falt. |
|
|

|
|
Wow... thanks for the needed info. His xmas speedo pic did it again?

Well if you haven't seen a good explanation then you apparently didn;t read what Ed Sr. had to say on the matter.
|
|
Actually I think that speedo pic should have gotten him at least a couple of "get out of jail free" passes. |
|
|
He shot his mouth off too much. I really liked him, he's a good guy, but he crossed the line and Staff (his friends even) had no choice but to lock his account.

LINK? |

Thanks for the IMs showing me Balzacs AIM IM. Thanks again. It's what i needed. I forgot about that IM List thread. So... anyone know a lot about 30-30 lever action rifles? I just passed a hunting course and I'm looking for suggestions to get one with side ejection so i can mount a scope on it. Marlin, Winchester any good kind. Thanks. Do they come in camo? I like Advantage.
P.S. Sorry for posting this here but I wanted to know quick rather than wait a week for a response in the Hometown. |

I have no idea what the link is, if you want to read the thread I believe it was in the Team Forum.

You know, I'm no fan of cyanide, but even a broken clock is right twice a day... Although Cyanide can be a little lacking in tact at times...

FREE BALZAC72!!! |
|
|
I have to tell you the Free Balzac72 is probably a little counter-productive. Ever stop to think that staff might be inclined to let him back some day, but certainly would not want to send the message that you can break the rules repeatedly and if people bitch enough you can get a pass... All the while other people bitch about two sets of standards... those for the rank and file and those who get preferential treatment because of a position they hold or people they know.
|
|
Balzak learned a hard lesson. The internet is more important than friendship.
EDIT TO ADD: FREE BALZAK72!!!!!!!!!!! |
|
Pathetic. |
|
|
Holy Crap, I just read the thread on Pre-ban (first time visitor) and MY GOD PEOPLE if you are going to ban someone ban that asshat arowneragain. That is a true troll, postwhorin asshat.
|
|
oh nevermind, I'm not going to argue this any more... dug his own grave, nuff said...
|
|
Whatever makes you feel better. |
|
|
I will say this you guys --- MODS STAFF SR STAFF have a tough job .............. the bannishment of Ballsy shows me that your all fair and do the hard thing at times, but you always try to do the right thing. And for that I thank you PS -- will work on the tact thing. |
|
|
Ex-CUSE me? One of the hottest states in Hometown, lovingly nurtured and painstakingly moderated by three fine fellows (okay, two..Hiram doesn't count) and you have the gall to say THAT? I'm gonna go cry.... |
|
|
Balzac72 broke the sites rules, but that doesn't mean that he was wrong.
|
|
I don't need to feel better about it, I had nothing to do with it. Quite frankly I'm pretty amivalant about it. I like Greg, I share some of his sentiments. However the rules are what they are and we all agree to abide by them if we want to spend our time here. Maybe if you talked with the staff involved you would appreciate why it was a hard decision to make, but that it was a decision they felt HAD to be made. |

He was banned because of a number of violations for which we was warned each time. The problem wasn't that he should have got away with his comments, the problem was he got away with a lot of other things and the comments were the straw that busted the camel in half! Greg is a good guy at heart, but regardless of my personal feelings, you can only let people get away with things for so long. Even people who are seen as the "in" crowd need to abide by the very few limits we have here. The rules we have are pretty basic and not unreasonable!
In regards to the "Fuck them all" type comments, I have no problem with that being on the site. I think that some generalizations are ok, but when you place hate or anger over it, it just paints too many people with it and shows ignorance. There are muslims in our military killing the insurgents and terrorists in Iraq who deserve your respect. My only issue is with threats of violence against individuals or groups. Why? One very obvious reason is that if someone here took it too far and killed a neighbor, this place would be crawling with gov reps and people wanting information, not to mention people wanting the place shut down and calling for my head. It's a risk that's not worth taking. So hate away, hate till it hurts, but don't threaten death on groups. I figure this may clear a few things up. |

How does site Staff post racist website links and get away with it?
Then deny it after a moderator points it out to him and then has the audacity to keep on editing and locking post not even close to what he did? I think there are two sets of rules here and a certain staff member thinks he has the capability to get away with infractions that would have any regular members account locked.

Minchia! Well, I still don't have a firearm yet. I don't consider myself complete until I get a firearm. Which is why I don't post there often. Did I mention that I live on the sandbar too? |
|
|
you wouldn't know tact if someone stuck it in your ear...............what a crock and your pathetic attempt to suck up here is nauseating |
||
|
Lose the anger my friend --- before it eats you up. Life is too short. |

|
Do you think by saying:
"This nation of ours has got a solemn duty to defeat this ideology of hate" is general enough to brake the CoC rules? |
|
Damn guy?? WTF is that brown thing on your nose? |
