Subject: Re: Any members that have left the boards without return?

Written By: quirky_cat_girl on 09/15/05 at 1:19 pm


Hehehehe, i thought it all pretty funny.

If we can't laugh at other people.. who can we laugh at?



ya well, not everyone has that kind of attitude....and anyone with any amount of respect in them, wouldn't think of doing that to another person...especially someone who never really did anything to them.  Some people have feelings and others don't....what can i say?

meaning...feelings toward others. I wouldn't condone a child making that sort of fun at someone, let alone a middle-aged man...who should at least posess some sort of maturity.

Ya know..

I don't disagree with the fact that making fun of people is mean and it hurts there feelings, but i'm not gonna sit here and lie and say i don't find it funny when people do.

When i was in School, i wouldn't neccisarilly sit there and take the piss out of people, but when it happened i found it funny. Things is, if somebody was gonna take the piss out of me, i could take it. Some people can't and they are often the ones who get all offended about everything.

Different mentality's.  ;) Mine is a cultural thing, the US is faaaar more wussy about this kind of thing. Pluck a random high school student from a random city in a random state and put them in a typical english high school.. they would be suicidal. It's all to do with conditioning. Jim like me has one english parent and evidently has the same type of mindset i do.

that's just the thing though....it's something that you would or could maybe expect from someone in grade school or even high school...but when you are nearing 40...don't you think it is time to act like an adult...and keep those kinds of school age games in the past?  I understand that some people never grow up, and that is the case in this scenario, I truly believe.  It's just a shame that someone's feelings had to be hurt in the process of a few people having a good laugh.

I figured out this is what happened: at a certain point in time Captain Stupid started posting posts he shouldn't have posted. People got annoyed and reported those posts. Chucky started an investigation. At first, some of CS's posts were simply deleted. Then truth came out and CS was banned. Subsequently James returned as Jabba and posted some really harmful photoshopped pics. Needless to say, "Jabba" got reported and banned. End of story (so far).

It falls under the category of personal attacks really.  They weren't funny, and they certainly weren't well done (a chimp has better Photoshop skills).  Both American and the UK have laws against slander and libel, and these certainly could fall under that category if you think about it.

It's not nice, and no decent person would do that. It dosen't mean it's not funny though.

I've already explained this in simple terms.

Just because i think it's funny dosen't mean i think it's a nice thing to do. I just happen to not always do the 'nice' thing.

I wouldn't worry about it.

Maybe Chucky should disable the feature allowing people to delete accounts. And if someone really wants to leave, they can PM a moderator.

He had reason.. he actually DID change his alias to DevoRule while still using FullHouseFan.. see, his parents got mad at him, so to avoid any suspicion (they didn't approve of forums), he deleted his account on here.

Yeah, I think I remember him saying something like that. I also remember that he deleted his original "FullHouseFan" account, and registered a new one as "DevoRule"; and he left shortly thereafter.

He was one of (if not THE) biggest poster here, so, needless to say I didn't see all his posts. Whatever the offense was probably wasn't in a topic I've seen (e.g. something in politics perhaps).

I don't usually discuss bans, but with a few higher profile members I have.  Certainly this is one.

Mark's ban had to do with continued harrasment of a couple board members via PMs and little "digs" that were in some of his messages.  He wouldn't come right out and name people in public messages, but they were designed to be "stumbled upon" by the target audience.  He was warned once before and he stopped briefly, than began again.

The new version of the messageboard software, which I'll install shortly, will have a report PM function.  If you get harrassing personal messages on the system, you can report it.

Mark is a nice guy. I know him very well, probably better than anyone one else on this board does, and I am not at all blind to his faults. But he is very trusting and he allows himself to be too open with people, and as a result he has been hurt several times by persons on this board over the years. And once he has been hurt he has a very hard time letting it go and moving on. That was his crime.... Unfortunately on message boards, as in life, nice people often get hurt while the troublemakers go merrily on their way. It has happened here before with others and I am sure it will happen again. It sucks big time. But hey - this is a message board, not a democracy. In the words of George Orwell: "Everybody is equal, some are just more equal than others..."  :(

How personal Mark wanted to get on the boards about his private life was entirely up to him. We have a choice to read it or go to another thread. I did feel sorry for Mark at first about things and perhaps still do but nothing changes the fact that I/other members have a choice not to respond to what he writes (something Mark always had a problem with too).

If he really has a deep need to share his feelings with someone, I suggested counselling to him and he ignored my advice.

I agree with your statement Andrew.  He was warned plenty of times concerning his harassment of certain members, yet he kept up with slipping jabs here and there within his posts, and sometimes even blatantly coming right out and basically reaming the person(s).  I was also one of the "lucky" members who was hit on and requested that I talk to him on messenger and also on the phone. I do not give out my phone number to anyone on the internet first of all, secondly I am married, and I wouldn't think of doing something like that to my husband (talking to another man on the phone behind his back, etc).

When people do not heed to warnings...what else is there to do but ban them from the boards? Mark may have been a "nice guy"...but I can totally see Chucky's reasoning in getting him off of the boards....every member deserves the right NOT to be harassed, etc...no matter what the situation is or was.

Some of you may not know who I am, but I've been a part of this community in some form or other since 2002.  This means that I have had the opportunity to get to know a lot of the older members, of which RnRF is (was) one.  My impression of the man was that he seemed publicly nice, but in private (and this is corroborated by other members' testimonials) he was manipulative and craved attention to the highest degree.  When spurned or provoked, he would turn belligerent and many of you have seen what he is capable of in his not-so-cryptic barbs in his posts. 

That said, I believe that he should not have been banned.  I am under the impression that this messageboard has ignore functions to ignore PMs, and in some form, you can also ignore his posts as well.  Even if the board did not have this software, "delete" is definitely an option.  It was easy for me to ignore most of his posts, but I guess a lot of you couldn't, which is why he is now banned.  I know he was a tool and annoying, but in my experience, despite all this, he really was a nice guy...just a bit disturbed. 

I know I make fun of him too, and I complain privately about his posts and alter egos and what not, but at the end of the day, at least he wasn't Crazy Don.

Sorry you got banned man.

Blimey it's all coming out now - he said to me some months back that lots of people (names of female posters came up) and they were all on this site he wanted me to join, along with the Messenger business.
Nice that he decided to blank me ever since I refused to accept his invite.

Ahem - not that I wish to spill the beans or anything.  

He whined far too much for my liking or acted like he was having a totally fantastic time, there never seemed to be a healthy 'balance' there - and it just came across as phony - I'm a very sympathetic person in 'real life' but it gets to a point when I was reading his stuff on here and thought $%*£*&%  Laura - GET A GRIP WILL YA!!

I found his posts contained an awful lot of personal stuff - details of his private life/relationships/etc which really the average person wouldn't be willing to divulge on a public notice board - he seemed to have a deep need to share his feelings regardless of how personal they were?


Some people like to share.. although some of his things were just TOO intimate to be sharing.. although, according to the other parties, they never happened (some of them, anyway).

The line is there, though.. I can understand sharing that your son died, but telling people you used to have explicit cyber-sex.. that crosses the line.

It's been suggested earlier by Bobby that perhaps Mark actually would have benefitted greatly from confiding in a Counsellor to thrash out his emotional troubles, but he decided against that route.

Unfortunately there are ways around blockin in PM, such as deleting and creating a new account.  The ignore functions are useful, but only useful when the person isn't determined to work around them.  There's also the future to take into account, if he's gotten worse lately, it's likely he's just going to keep pushing the boundries.  He had a chance to stop but apparently couldn't.

I hate bans like this, because it's not immediately obvious to people what happened unless they were the ones being affected by it.  If something isn't done though, people affected by it are discouraged to even visit anymore.

Well, Howard.. gives away a little too much to us, but other then that, he's fine. He doesn't insult any one, he's a nice guy all around.. but then, RARF wasn't banned for being too open.. he was banned for thinly-veiling insults all the time, harrassing people via-PM(S), and that stuff.

To make a long story short, Bobby, Crazy Don and I did not gel very well.  He harassed many members, some of whom I call friends, in a much more public manner than RnRF ever did.  I'm not proud of getting him banned but I believe that the community is better without his presence.

Speaking of Howard -- no offense to Howard, because he has told us publicly of his "condition", but Crazy Don and RnRF don't have this excuse to fall back on.

My tongue was firmly in my cheek there, lol. We can't ban a guy for talking about cyber-sex if somebody else on the other side of the boards is talking about what he would like to do to his girlfriend.  ;D

It was the potential that scared the ladies more than anything, Andrew. See this equation . . .

History of harrassment + Alter ego = The potential for deceitful intent to gain trust with members he once harrassed.

Luckily, Mark's saving grace, to the best of my knowledge, didn't use Superfreak for this reason. But you've got to wonder . . . keeping a false identity for three years without getting caught out!?! As mentioned before, the scary part is what I showed publicly the times Mark has been 'posting to himself'.

I agree.

What's strange about this whole thing (as well as him apparently hitting on most of the women here) is, wasn't he married? Or had a steady girlfriend, or something (I forget exactly what)? That makes it even more creepy/strange.

While I maintain that Mark was always nice/cool/friendly with me, I'm also learning alot more about what he was like with everyone else. Though it's unfortunate to see him go, what he did is certainly not acceptable behavior. There's obviously more sides to him than I was aware of.

What he did in the public parts of the forum amounted to attention grabbing and posturing, which I don't think is bannable based on the forum guidelines (at least my interpretation of them).  What he did in private, harassing board members through private messages and using multiple usernames to circumvent the system, would be considered a bannable offense.  I didn't know about all these private things because I guess I don't talk to him and I'm not a girl, but that is pretty damning.  I'm sorry to see that he was "let go" but I understand why it happened even if I don't agree with it completely.

What got me confused was how he deleted his account, made a new account, supposedly to make a fresh start, then he kept going on about the whole superfreak incident and how everyone hated him, and then he complained that people still hadn't let it go.  But the only one still talking about it was HIM!

Did you know that if you click on the blue "new" pic then it takes you to where you last read a particular thread?

When viewing any of the boards here at the end of a topic title (e.g. "Any members that have left the boards without return?") there will be a blue shape with the word "new" in it if someone has added to the thread since the last time you viewed it.  Clicking on the blue shape takes you to the last post you read. 

That's why I get 10 or more pages of "Longest Thread" to read each morning.

I don't know...but he had lots of pictures of his family (wife and kids, even a wedding pic) that he posted.  Did he get booted for making rude comments toward Howard? ???

Chucky has definitely removed some of Warlord's posts from that thread. Maybe Howard should have known better to write a post like that.

well it seemed like warlord was following Howard around to different threads and making gay references toward him, etc....it didn't seem like Howard got offended...but maybe Warlord said something to someone else who perhaps did...I have no idea.

I noticed that too (George Michael reference in one of the posts in the 'Create a band' thread). Warlord seemed to be quite an extreme character anyway (by what he wrote on the boards anyway) and I think Howard may have been the light to his gunpowder.

I saw something 'going off' just as I left earlier - he (Warlord) was jibing Howard about something, and the fact Warlord loved his kids - though I dunno what on Earth relevance that had to the conversation. Thought I was the only oddbod here  ;D ;D

He posted a sort of freaky pic of a face made up of various features, that looked like it was computer generated, or something, but it was really ugly.

warlord definitely looked like an account made to attack Howard with, and judging from the childish content of the posts, probably Jiminy back to be a pain once again.

I don't think it was Jiminy.....I mean, this guy had many pictures to back himself up (of his children, wedding pics, a pic of himself)....plus, his style of writing wasn't like Jiminy's at all...PLUS, this warlord character was PMing Beth...and she and Jiminy have never had any PM conversations in the past...so I don't think it was him either.....it was just some odd random guy, I suppose.

That's what I thought. If Jiminy came back, the last person I thought he would pick on would be Howard.
