So what's up with TJ? Still can't post or what?

 

Ya know.. Seems to me someone just hypocritized him not too long ago about plagiarizing some plagiarism and TJ caught them red handed and they ran off like a scared little girl for a couple months before coming back.. did he ever get his acknowledgment or apology? Fair is fair..

 

Well.. an acknowledgment and apology and TJ being able to "moderate" the perp would make it fair at this point.. what's good for the goose is good for the gay goose..

 

Damn Wez, your just ruthless sometimes, lol.

 

And no, I am not allowed to post on the forum, I have been banned.

Not anymore.

[Guest TJ]

Not anymore.

 

All posting rights still blocked so pretty much the same thing.

 

Cloaked, I am sorry you felt you had to take such a heavy handed stand against me and ban me anyway, RO had blocked my ability to post on the forum and with most environments where there are levels of authority once a person has attempted and failed to reach an understanding at the lower level, it is generally seen as reasonable to reach out to the next higher level, that would be you. All I did was ask you what rule I had violated to deserve to get all my posting rights stopped. You never answered that question, you just banned me and the only thing I can believe based on that is members are not allowed to question the actions of staff....even if that staff was wrong.

 

Treat me like a human being and I have no issue with anyone, treat me like a dog and I don't care who the person is or if they have a ban button, I will not be treated like crap.

 

RO did not have any "GOOD" reason to remove my posting ability. I asked you to help, you refused, so there it is.

My bad.

 

I probably should have read this before I changed his posting ability.

Sounds like a war of the wills. No one wins. Just agree to disagree and let it be. wow that rhymed. I've learned to ignore what irritates me anymore for the most part. I do slip up at times. And that was not a slip of the tongue lol. There are bigger issues out there than who's right and wrong. I may get myself in trouble for this but Times just back off and hold your tongue. Go kick a tree. RO quit poking Times with a stick.

[Guest TJ]

Ren, to a certain degree your right, it does boil down to a war of sorts.

 

What RO did was wrong, everyone knows it. So is a wrong, right if it is done against someone a few people dislike? It appears to be that way and this brings to mind a question, eddo a couple posts back and a few other people have claimed that me being here supresses the membership but my question is this, I was gone for a year before comming back and no new members.........why? If I was the problem why is it nobody new joined and decided to stick around after a full year of no Times to run them off? At the time I was banned I remember great people like fullauto who was a pleasure to debate things with and he is gone too, I certainly had no hand in his departure.

 

 

Is this a public forum or a private club where only 'certain kinds' of people are allowed to feel welcome and everyone else is encouraged to leave?

 

 

I very much so want to be a good member of this forum, I have worked hard to reduce my trend to 'give as good as I am given' and to try harder at getting people to like me then along comes RO with his grudge at being beaten by me and his embarassment at how his plagiarizing claims against me actually exploded in his face that was so bad he actually dissapeared for a couple months to lick his wounds. Right after comming back from that he is asking Bender (now phreakwars) to get rid of me and is made staff so he can do it himself.

 

 

How exactly am I supposed to feel welcome here when I have a guy like that hounding my every move and looking for any excuse to abuse his moderation powers against me?

 

 

I wrote Cloaked because I do want to find a solution, but he finally responded to my pm and put simply, he said he will always support his staff no matter what they do. In theory I understand his possition but I have to say that we are all human, we all make mistakes, the question is not if we make mistakes but how we respond to mistakes that show our true character. I have made a few mistakes on this forum and I have been working hard to try and be a better person, some people have even admitted that I am better now.

 

 

I honestly do not know how I can move foward when the stage has been set against me in such an effective way. I am open to advise that does not include kissing azz.

It is not a matter of getting people to like you. It's a matter of clicking that mouse and navigating away. If anyone has faults. It's pretty obvious to most people unless they are a drooling idiot. Every time someone does something that's really mean , self serving or hateful, it's not your job to point it out. It just aggravates that person and makes' you look like the instigator. I remember standing in line at wal mart one time and this woman was at the counter having a fit over 3 or 4 dollars it cost her to refill her debit card. It took 20 min and a lot of swearing on her part before security came. Now obviously this woman did not read the fine print. But even if she had been right, no one appreciated standing there listening to her rant. People piss me off all the time but for the sake of peace I just go my way, think horrible thoughts about them, swear under my breath and stay away till I won't act on my emotions. Takes practice but it really works better.

[Guest TJ]

I know what your trying to say Ren, and for those who can take the slap in the face and walk away I am sure their life is much simpler and easier because they never feel compelled to fight for anything, right, wrong, good or bad are all things that don't really matter to them.

 

 

I also understand that many people get turned off by the mess even if I am right, but unfortunately the only other alternative for me is to roll over and beg forgiveness from those who are wrong and I simply cannot do that.

 

 

Let's take this last example, RO was angry with me for pointing out he ran away from a direct question, then he used his moderator powers to block my ability to post on the forum as an extension of his debating process to try and "force" me to admit to a lie. I will not admit to a lie just to have permission to post on the forum Ren. I did not break any rules, RO was just drunk with power and abused his possition of authority because he could.

 

 

 

 

So what should I have done Ren? RO said I had to admit to the lie or he would not allow me to post on the forum. Are you saying I should have admitted to the lie? And what about the next time it happend? Just keep giving into RO and admit to lies to make him happy over and over again just to feed his ego? In my experience once you give into a bully he will forever press his advantage until you force him to back off.

[ren]

I pm'd you. It's ok to take a vacation. If someone rubs you the wrong way , ya just gotta get away. Personally I would like the bahamas but that's not an option

[Guest TJ]

Well help me out, not just you Ren but everyone can join in and help me out on what you guys feel the correct response is to this specific issue and maybe you guys can help me get better:

 

 

So your discussing things and a staff member out of nowhere removes your posting ability on the forum and demands you admit to something that is not true or you will forever be blocked from posting on the forum. You try discussing it with them and they are firm in their possition that you cannot post on the forum unless you admit to something that is not true.......

 

 

 

How many people here would admit to the lie just to have permission to post here?

 

 

What other course of action could I have followed at that point? I am all ears.

[snafu]

So I'm wondering why my Going Rouge thread was merged with this one and how long is Times supposed to be banned?

[eddo]

he's already unbanned Snaf. He's just being quiet.

[Chi]

he's already unbanned Snaf. He's just being quiet.

 

It's a MIRACLE!!!!!!!! :lol: :lol:

[snafu]

Oh..

[Guest TJ]

I tried to post after my account was unbanned and all I got was errors about posting rights or something.

 

Not really a big deal anyway, not much to talk about on the forums anyway, mostly liberals bashing tea parties, lol.
