I answered your question, but you didn’t answer mine?

That’s a soft response

Your response is centered on "well it's your fault" and ignoring the clear pattern of the six always responding to my OPs, me never responding to theirs.

Like I said, if you're going to mindlessly go to "you shouldn't even be here", forgiving all else, you are welcome to ban me the moment you read this.

Let me be clear that I'm not going to change. Im going to remain 100% disinterested in any OPs from the six and will respond to their inevitable attacks on mine when they come.

Again, I gave you a direct answer (in two parts!) as to your concerns.

Now can you give me a direct answer?

Why did you circumvent your ban to come back?

If one did that, it'd be clear to be here. Obviously. Not sure who you demand the obvious be said out loud.

Like I said though, if that's all you'll ever go to above all else, ban me. It's a forever cop out ignoring the current situation.

It’s not a cop out. Your concern is that the same people respond to your posts in a consistent fashion… on an internet message board.

If you don’t want responses, even the ones you think provide zero substance, maybe do some self reflection.

I’d say that you’re either the least self-aware internet user ever, or trolling.

But now I’m just starting to think you’re kind of going soft. Calling out to the mods for help after the way you entered this thread is an interesting choice.

Not asking for any help. Sharing the obvious pattern for you to see or ignore. Like I said I don't want anyone banned, no posters bother me.

So I just went through the last 7 pages of this thread. I've been wondering what new info there was. I assumed there must be some valuable information shared with how the thread has remained on the front page for the last week. Of course, any useful information was hard to come by....

However this last page did share some good information, Lberry said we can ban him and he also said he doesn't want anyone else banned. So be it.

Lberry is banned.

Happy Easter everyone.

Happy Easter.

If he is in fact upset, his smoking hot wife will surely be a pick me up.

He’s married with kids, so that’s out of the question.

Something about Easter season and Koon. Spring fever hits and he gets too feisty

Glad you were able to get permission to do your job. I miss the old ownership.

It’s his perverted internet version of the resurrection every year or something like that

Koon sacrifices himself for the free will of internet man, and returns three months later with an alt.

Joke’s on you, Beau is majority shareholder

Two Easter permabans in 4 years is something lol.

It does read something strange that a 2x previous perma banned poster only gets banned after giving permission.

On the other hand, pay attention to what usernames pickup new steam.

This is funny because they had nothing to do with the site, and it was still just teenage/college me and the other mods still with us banning idiots.

Sorry that I try to consider the opinions of the other partners and balance being a dad with a career.

Honestly if there were other posters who seemed to have some credibility and could be trusted with moderator powers I'd love to give some out, but most of the posters that bring more to the table than fart jokes (you are still valuable and appreciated, looking at you @greyhammer90 ) end up being unwilling to the job or incapable.

I do apologize as my second sentence was over the top. It’s just a bit frustrating to see a known troll derail thread after thread after thread. I realize being a mod is a thankless job and probably the last thing you want to do most days.

My only regret is that I couldn’t tell this joke before Koon was banned.

Koon: Nobody bothers me I don’t even notice these losers.

Also Koon:

But for real I'd be a bad mod because I have too much NDinLA in me. When you have a banhammer the whole world looks like a Koon alt account. I'm a wartime consigliere.

 

[FDNYIrish1]

I have zero credibility and cannot be trusted. Please deputize me.

What a throwback. What ever happened to NDinLA?

Not sure if serious...old ownership forgot this site existed, failed to do any maintenance for several years, and we were in a slow spiral towards eventual shutdown. We were down for several days once with no communication, which is what prompted the boys to step up and make an offer to take things over.

Last I heard he's still doing his thing, but doesn't have time to pop in much anymore. I don't think Manny was ever banned, can't find him in the members search though.

You’re fine. And I agree.

I just try to avoid making unilateral decisions and most of us mods/owners have busy adult lives that make it harder to sit down and decide on an action. Guess I just need to pull the trigger sometimes.

Again, promising posters that could be a good addition to the mod team would be great. Just not sure who that would be off the top of my head.

Think he asked to be banned.

Anyways sorry to continue speaking on other matters….back to the bridge.

This right here... and I'd add that the site generally does a pretty good job of policing itself at this point.

Koon might have been a disruption, but I honestly thought he was small potatoes compared to the 100% blatant trolling that some of our other favorite banned users were doing.

I understand he annoyed people, regularly polluting threads with bullshit, and maybe we should have been more heavy-handed in just getting rid of him as soon as we realized who he was based on website rules and regulations.

But as someone who didn't engage with him directly very often, it appeared most of the site handled his thinly-veiled trolling pretty well for the most part, and almost everyone could see through it, and ended up just poking fun at him. I honestly didn't get rid of him because I thought he kept the board entertained during the offseason, and full transparency, I was probably granting him some grace because he actually did behave himself for quite a while after his return as Berry... but maybe I misjudged just how much most of you disliked him lol

I told 1 fart joke, the rest are much much worse.

Before he got married, I don't remember him posting anything political. He was busy using Verizon to pay for his degree. Fast forward, he gets married, buys a home, has kids and has to pay for everything. Suddenly he has a different take on life. lol

Just kidding, I applaud those that give up their time in a thankless role, I'm not sure I have that kind of time.
