diablopilot 2 #1 January 21, 2004 So after seeing the trend of locked and deleted threads I thought I'd comment on it. The whole of talkback is Fluff. Sure, it's entertaining but those placed in charge of what is worthy and what's not have me confused. I understand that this is NOT by any means a "free" expresion of peoples views, but when something doesn't seem to violate the owners established policys (see: Forum Rules) and is locked and deleted vs. something like I'm getting shitfaced . . . doesn't fall under the gun, it makes me wonder. To jraf: 1) I have no idea what Chopin was thinking. 2) I imagine Einstine had many sleepless nights. 3) A 9th grade science text has that answer.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lummy 4 #2 January 21, 2004 JP.. you're such a rabble rouser!! As for Jraf: sometimes ya gotta know when it's time to leave well enough alone. I didn't see the original thread that started it, but it didn't sound to be in the best of taste, especially when the realization that a lot of people feed the troll. That probably would've been time to grin n bare it. From what I saw (rubbernecking mind you) he was given a few warnings. Nathan was another who didn't know when to quit and found himself in lots of trouble because of it.I promise not to TP Davis under canopy..

diablopilot 2 #4 January 21, 2004 QuoteJP.. you're such a rabble rouser!! Wasn't really the intent, but I like the title. Point is I don't bitch about the things I see posted and don't like, or think are worthless. And so far I've seen nothing to violate the established rules. Now if the rules change......---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skygal3 0 #6 January 21, 2004 Perhaps if Jraf simply posted asking for people to display their body parts or call each other "hotties" (which is not a word, BTW), he would not be in this trouble. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diablopilot 2 #8 January 21, 2004 QuoteHe can't reply as he is banned now for a bit.. I thought as much. Shame. While I don't know him, I apreciate "different" people, as they lend spice and coloring to the bland flavor life serves up. Where does he jump?---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TomAiello 26 #10 January 21, 2004 Honestly, I'd say that jraf pretty blatantly violated the rules. Calling someone a "dope" _is_ a personal attack. Personal attacks on moderators count, too, you know. But re-posting the attack after it was removed? That's really just asking to be banned. Just my two cents.-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's really just asking to be banned. True, I agree with you. I meant the post not to be specificaly about jraf, although my coments about his Beeeer...first locked post of mine post in which I can find no reference to the word "dope". Overall I think the moderators do an excelent job of moderating this board and each other, however I have seen some instances of heavy handedness and personal agendas/belifes creep in to that "moderation". It's a job I don't envy. Again, who am I to complain. It's not a "Free" site.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

GARYC24 3 #16 January 21, 2004 What does "Fluff" mean? (seriously) As is fluffy not stuffy? (non-seriously) While I'm at it..what does or why do people say..He's talking "smack"? To me smack meant "heroin" I know it's another word for 'shit' but where does smack come from? And what's the "schnizzle" stuff? I heard someone talking like that in the men's room while I was takin a 'whizzle! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skyyhi 0 #18 January 21, 2004 Okay, JP. . .gotta luv ya. . .but in all honesty. . .he really was asking for trouble. . . I had a post deleted because I was offering the skydiving community a chance to apply for a Job that is available at my work. . .it was advertisement and therefore breaking the rules, so I understood when they let me know. . .no biggie. . . He'll be back. . .and then we can all cheer him on. . . Personally, I like the off color people myself. . .makes me laugh. . .________________________________________ Take risks not to escape life… but to prevent life from escaping. ~ A bumper sticker at the DZ FGF #6 Darcy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
