They are doing their best and trying to please the community.
I'm a different kind of guy, bro.
I perceive things differently than most.
What seems harmless to you, can be seen as completely disrespectful by me.
I'm here just being me. That's all. I'm just being me.
And I think that by just being me, this forum has benefitted in a lot of ways.
How popular was this place before I got here? I never heard of it before I joined and only found it because I searched for JJ.
How much more traffic does it generate since I've been here? I would say a lot judging by all the fukkin new posters who's first post is to rip a veteran poster here.
It means they followed this forum before they joined and posted and knew the posters here already. You know the ones I'm talking about. The ones I call newfags and the ones who you think are veteran posters making new accounts with a different user name just to break balls.
Either way, this place is way more popular now than before I found it.
Am I taking credit for it? Not all of it but certainly most of it.
I get this place rolling when I'm around.
Just last week, this place was dead and then I made a few posts and suddenly it was popping.
That's me, bro. I did that shit.
You can call it whatever you want. You can say it's because I'm loved, you can say it's because I'm hated, it's because I'm perceived as controversial, or because I'm just plain fukkin nuts.
Either way, it's because of me.
So let's get back to the disrespectful part now for a second.
So, I put the time in, to handicap games, like a lot of us do, to start conversations, to break news, whatever.
I do my best to try to be part of this community and support it and everyone here.
Like a lot of us.
So why is it that it's my posts that are being changed, censored, edited, or taken down?
Because there's a poster or two that got their Itty bitty feelings hurt by something I said?
Illini you know the truth. You know what I've done for this place since I've been here. You see the traffic I generated. Both before and after I joined this place.
Why am I being singled out like this?
It's crazy.
Even crazier that anyone would think I would tolerate it.
I made a post the other day joking around with Genie. Bringing her up since we're talking about moderators.
Her first word in her reply was she told me to relax. See it for yourself if you think I'm lying.
Relax....
Relax...
Relax...
Remember what I said about me perceiving things differently?
Bro, here's the honest truth....I have put people in the hospital for telling me to relax.
For assuming I was in a particular way, or mood, or feeling. Then thinking they have the right to tell me what to do.
Now, I only brought her up as an example here. She didn't mean any disrespect whatsoever and she certainly didn't think she was being disrespect in any way and she wasn't and I know that.
I'm using this as an example. Because I'm a different kind of guy.
Perception. Perspective. It's different for everyone and I'm different from most.
To sum up, because this is taking far longer than I thought and is risking of becoming boring...basically what I'm saying is...
I did a lot for this forum and I'm here just being me and I'm not going out of my way to be a dikk to anyone and if that's ok with the mods, then just leave me the fukk alone and let me go about being me.
If it's not ok, I'll leave and find someplace else.
Have a great night bro.
