lol - I think the thread is a little unnecessary! _ Come back _ to us! lol  I don't want you to think we don't appreciate your work on archiving and doing whatever else you do on the backend of things that most don't see.  I know in my short time here you and I have had our own words, but I tend to forgive and forget it, after all it's just a forum, where anyone with fingers, or Siri, or whatever they want, can type and respond and say shit.

You gotta admit when guildy said fuck you and your tapes , it was kinda funny!  I would bet he has downloaded your stuff over the years and is appreciative of your dedication to Art's show.  Sticking up for Nooray was really what got ya I think.  Especially on that night when ole G-man came into the forum to defend himself, you had to know it was gonna be a diatribe of hate towards him.  Anyways, stick around man, and don't let anything get ya down, especially people on the internet.  They are just like real life people, in that you'll meet good ones and you'll meet bad ones.  Along the way, you'll find out which one's should get a lump of coal from good ole St. Nick, and you can just say fuck em and no need to bring further angst to the situation just physically ignore them or do like you did and use the sites ignore feature. 

I have yet to ignore anyone, and commiecanadian or whatever his nuts name is, has tried to goad me into getting thrown off the site, because of some random shit I've said, and my POST count of all things.  I mean so the fuck what?  I've posted 1200 times, guess what, they're a lot of just snickers, or lol, or what not to the live discussion thread.  So take it with a grain of salt man!!

Ok my speel is over, now go fuck yourself!  (I AM JOKING!)

[widespread1]

I was trying to lighten things up a little is all. I wasn't trying to rehash anything
I understand what happened.

Actually the comment about the tapes hurt  lol

I really had no Idea how crazy it has gotten with Gnoory
I didn't even know it was really him until it got all serious.

Oh yeah and I really do love Frank Herbert honest.

[The General]

Your old tapes smell musty!
Sorry it's the best I got.

[widespread1]

Meh I think telling me I look like Hogue was better lol

[WildCard]

I got nothin'.

Glad you're staying widespread.

[aldousburbank]

Widespread and son is my favorite avatar. How's that?

....I really had no Idea how crazy it has gotten with Gnoory

But it's not him. Never was. Outside of perhaps a few brief lines here and there it's always been one of the producers or C2C interns just throwing out some red meat. Otherwise the numerous requests for George to Skype or otherwise demonstrate in real time that it was indeed George posting here (and tracking an IP address or doing a couple of shoutouts don't prove anything except that the computer being used to communicate with BellGab comes back to C2C and that the person typing can get a message to George)  would have been complied with.

Hey, I don't like Hogue much, but you have to admit, he's one handsome man.

Still stuck on that eh? hahahaha

I never heard him until that Dark Matter broadcast, he was not at all likeable. He beat out Scallion as the most frantic and desperate to get his point across. That isnt very attractive haha.

we can go around and around with this, but i just don't understand the certainty with which you say it's not noory.  i think perhaps you're just being a bit contrarian where this subject is concerned.  i can't imagine a major corporate broadcasting entity allowing/ordering an intern to go on a forum and pose as the host of one of their properties.  that's got train wreck written all over it (not that george's posts have improved over what could be expected of an intern).

i just think, on the whole, there's far more evidence to the contrary of what you've stated above.

[ziznak]

Did you change your avy and post this at the same time on purpose or something?  Seems almost like you were trying to bait people into making personal attacks at your appearance at which point you could then what???  Expose us for the evil people we are that we were so quick to stoop shallow and attack you personally?

I don't get it... but I have to say that most posters here don't "attack" other posters directly.  We may attack arguments from other posters BUT DONT GET IT TWISTED.  Attacking an argument or an opinion IS NOT AN ATTACK on the person directly.  So many people get this shit wrong and it bothers the fuck out of me.   Also, normally during an argument when one side resorts to personal attacks it is a sure sign that the other side has won... here's an example

Me: aliens exist
You: Nuh uh!!!
Me: Richard Hoagland!!!
You: you're a fag!!

See? technically I win that argument with a strong "Richard Hoagland" when you could only respond to my proof of alien life by calling me a fag. 

[West of the Rockies]

I don't get it either, Ziznak, but then again, the direction this forum has taken of late has left me a bit dismayed.  We've seen the arrival and departure of newbies who post every bloody little thought in their heads; the political threads have become mostly polarized echo chambers -- my side:  all good/your side:  all bad.  People invite insults; another poster invited questions of all sorts to, I guess, reveal his brilliance?  Obvious trolling has popped up like crazy.  Personal attacks take over threads for a couple days at a time.

Shit, I'm not asking for non-stop philosophical discourse.  We needn't just share thoughts about WWII or airplanes or Dr. Who.  Humor is great.  A little good old-fashioned juvenile back-and-forth is fine. 

Hell, maybe my humor detector is busted or my aura is clouded with muck.  Maybe I've become an old fart.  Whatever.  Maybe this is just a cyclical thing that happens here from time to time.

[MV/Liberace!]

Maybe this is just a cyclical thing that happens here from time to time.

i'd agree with that.  happens probably every 6 months or so.  regarding the politics stuff... well, that's just politics.

Like I said I was trying to lighten the mood and was basically admitting to my error. The inviting of insults was in fun so we could all laugh together instead of bicker. I made apologies because I felt bad. The picture I put up is a good representation of my self.  It wasnt an invite to insult my looks. I am 41 years old, married, and have a six year old child. I am not the dreaded gnoory defender. I apologize for your confusion. I am not a troublemaker trying to bait people into conflict like you suggest.

[West of the Rockies]

I thought that might be it, MV.  We've just come through an incrediby contentious fiscal debate.  I wondered if maybe feelings are hurt and people are going on attack mode.  I guess I'm just not a big fan of argutainment.

[ziznak]

Sall good widespread... can we make you an honorary nutthuggah now?

I must warn you though pizza rolls are involved in the initiation.

As long as it isnt the keestering of pizza rolls as initiation haha

hmmmm... well we can come up with something else i guess...

[onan]

Sorry, it isn't all good with me. You started on me when we disagreed about the legality of streaming. The argument then conflated by some that I was against anyone getting the stream for free, which I could care less about. I was concerned for this site and MV. Mistakenly or not my thoughts were for suggesting MV didn't need any hassles brought about by some that showed little to no regard for what you called a law that didn't need to be followed. Then called me a weenie and a prude. You may have qualified prude with forum's biggest. I am too lazy to dig to find it.

Then you decided for whatever reason to apologize and let bygones be bygones which I thought finished it. Then, you took umbrage for my (agreed) vulgar responses to noory. When you started criticizing me, I suggested you read all of noory's posts. But since you didn't seem to know the full history, you made the decision I was wrong and you were the arbiter of decency. I let it slide. You continued the next day and several others took issue with you... I did not. But later that evening I and 4 others were called nuthuggers and placed on ignore. Fine it happens. But in response to what I thought was nothing more than drama from you, I decided to poke you back. You got your feelings hurt and wanted MV to delete your account. Only to change your mind again and start to post one more time telling everyone how you felt abused.

You then furthered your crap by calling someone indolent something secondary to their name calling. Talk about a pot calling a kettle for dinner.

Look I don't wish you any ill. I think you do offer a service to several members here and that is pretty cool. But you also seem to miss that the forum is built of members with which you have really yet to know. But you decided that ignoring them and making a scene about it was the better way to go. It wasn't. Some of those you ignored have been here a long time and have written some of the most intelligent, heart warming, thought provoking posts I have had the priviledge to read.

And now you want to sweep it under the rug with a cute "hey if you insult me we will be even."

As I said I don't wish you any ill. But I am a long way from wanting to have indepth conversations with you.

[widespread1]

Okay Onan tell me what you would like.
Would you like me to keep ignoring you and leave it at that? Or would you like me to continue going back and forth with you? Do you want some kind of written apology addressed  only to you? Would you like me to disappear completley. Or would you like things to stay the way they are and have me hunker over in a corner while you form a team of people to makes jokes at my expense?
Tell me what you would like and I will do my best to accommodate.

I think you should do what you think is best for you.

[widespread1]

My ego would say to call you on every fucking thing you say because you are an angry man. My good sense however tells me to just ignore you.

Hahahaha!! I use that line allllllll the time .

And he didn't change his avatar to this, if I remember correctly it was a Finger first....and then he changed it to his real pic sometime lastnight or so...He didn't try to bait anyone, and has made his peace...to those accepting it...

[widespread1]

I think they smell like skunk. 

Mmmmmmmmmm skunk
