Being the realist I try to be I have to disagree with gg. It takes the board as a whole. We are a community. We have our ups and downs. For the crap to stop it will take everyone here to stop it.
I'm all about flaming scammers, trolls, and thieves...Bring em on....Burn em down. But when valued members take each other on it brings the entire board down. It splits people into factions with their own agenda. Several boards have gone this way. I don't want to see this place go that direction.
If this board is to maintain credibility we have to make room for different personalties and trains of thought.
Yes...The shit has to stop. Nobody can stop it but us. It will take acting like adults.
The "crap" that needs to stop is sid's outrageous behavior, posting of things like hate-filled anti-homosexual videos and his continued attacking of people publicly and privately. sid sends PMs to people and calls them on the phone to try and start trouble, this is absolutely unacceptable behavior in my opinon and MANY of you know this is his mode of operation.
Yep, some of you can sit there and "want this to stop" but direct your anger and outrage towards sid which is where it belongs.
shelby is too naive and ignorant to understand this and doesn't like me because of my political leanings, it's as simple as that.
Maybe there ought to be a poll to ban sid.........

This really is pretty funny!![]()
Only five votes to "ban" me. nullsmurf and brewmeister who are nothing but trolls and Korean who hasn't been here long enough to know anything. None of these three have enough posts to qualify to make their "votes" count.Then I have an 18 year old kid (boomshay) who knows nothing about me weighing in here as well, too funny! CabiguanJuan, I'm very disappointed with you......
Once again, another one of sid's stunts that backfired on him....![]()
When are you people going to realize where the "problem" is............

Sid's video post was directly against the stated policy of this forum. There is no doubt about that. It was complete crap and he should apologize for it but we all know he won't because he hasn't for all the past shit. No big surprise there.
But don't you see Bill, this is his plan. He is going to keep baiting you. When you go after him and he doesn't respond then it looks like you are the problem. Eventually you might just get tossed if Hex gets fed up. That's Sid's goal. By going after him your giving him exactly what he wants. Your facing a banning poll. Granted your going to survive it but it still went this far.
If you just ignore the guy this will all be over and it will drive him nuts.
I'm sorry nhcigarfan and to anyone else who was offended by my objection to his posting of the antihomosexual video but when people like sid do highly offensive things like that, I'm going to say something and I will NOT ignore it. If not ignoring it causes me to face a ridiculous "ban poll" then so be it. What is truly amazing is that no one else objected, especially hex.![]()
When theycallmemanix pulled that SAME crap, we was tossed out of here on his ass.
sid owes MANY apologies to many individuals AND the entire community and why on earth some people refuse to see an understand that really makes me wonder.

Bill I might be wrong here, but I don' think any one objects you pointing out that the video and the comments were way out of line. As a matter of fact bringing that up just makes you a very valuable member here, as no one group or person should be bated or attacked in the way that post did.
At the same time you and Sid both went way too far in this conflict. By that I mean if someone does something wrong it is good to point out their BEHAVIOR or ACTIONS. But no statements should be made to attack THE PERSON HIMSELF/HERSELF
AND THAT LAST STATEMENT IS MEANT FOR ALL PARTIES INVOLVED IN THIS AND OTHER SUCH ARGUMENTS
Hey, Bill - does this sound at all familiar???![]()
Sarge - I couldn't agree more. But if you think about it - it is really down to one individual. And he need to take responsiblity for his actions - realize he's being an idiot - stop his nonsense - AND MOVE ON!!!
No one has to like CC or Sid or anyone else, for that matter. But this sneaky, snarky crap has to stop! ...or this board will definitely splinter.
I gave up arguing with Sid after things got out of hand, and Hex asked us to stop it. Then Sid started a campaign against me; I still remained silent, hoping it would just die down. Then Sid continues to bait those who disagree with him; his sig tag and the youtube videos for example. I refuse to be baited back into it with Sid so I have had him on ignore for a long time now and will continue to do so until he either gets it, or leaves the board. It's that simple.

Goddamn ya'll, has the swelling gone down yet? Looks like I missed a pretty big dustup. Shit.
Equality is not seeing different things equally. It's seeing different things differently.

Wow, when did seeing differently on politics become a reason to dislike someone. Isn't that why we started America? To be able to express ourselves differently and religiously however we wanted?
When I first came to the forums, I got on Bill's bad side, talked it out VIA PM and settled the shit. As far as I know, we've never had a problem since. Bill is a stand up guy, and this poll is a joke.

I never understood where he got that from. Bill and I have similar political leanings.
John! Where the hell have you been?
BTW, I think you already knew this, but if you didn't, I live in Indiana now...
Have you ever thought about maybe turning off the TV, sitting down with your kids...and hitting them?
