Air it out
Jdh71
> we were told by Thumper that Jeff trying to welcome you to *his* club after you booted him and placed him on ignore could place in in violation of GK ignore rules, and we deleted the thread.<
You present that statement like it came from me. An extra word here, an omitted word there, and the whole message is changed but you still say it in my name. Thats how it's been twisted from it's original meaning Jdh71. Did you think you wouldn't be called on it?
For the purpose of clarity and because I'm the originator and the one who's PM is being misrepresented, This is exactly what I said:

Private message from thumper:
Jeff,
You may want to be carefull about addressing KOP directly in the forum if he has you on ignore.
Mike takes a dim view when people use the forums to circumvent GK policy about the ignore feature. I know this puts you in a bind as the club's founder, but I'm confident that you can navigate the situation.

So this is the way that was chosen to handle it. Hmmm.

I did read the 'innocent, let's be friends, welcome aboard' speech from Jeff before you deleted it, after my caution of course.
The post contained 5 words of welcome followed by 5 paragraphs of argument and veiled threat. It was also suggested that KOP may want to stay at TLSF.
My good deed to try any help/protect the club was repayed, in my opinion, with a stab in the back. Your past PM to me now rings hollow.

If you want to insult, argue, or debate with DOK I don't care. If you misrepresent me in the course of that, then you had better be able to back it up with the facts. As a mod you are responsible to the club's mission which I agree with, 'Be prepaired to defend your ideas...no one gets a free ride.'

If you choose to cut and run at this point, I will understand.

1) like both me and jeff said, he never told anyone your whole PM, nor did I know the exact words of your
PM. we were only told you warned him about the possibility of problems - thank you.

2) this was no "misrepresentation" you said Jeff could get into trouble becaus of the ignore, and I merely
pointed that out. if *you* read things into that, that's your stuff, not mine. because it's clear that I never
said what you are implying I said.

3)Mountain out of a mole hill. if you want to take offense, that's your business

4) cut and run? Hardly. There is nothing more to say here. you think I misreprsented you, and I say I
did not. we find ourselves at an impasse. there is nothing more to "back up" - you said what you said,
and I merely pointed out you said what you said. you didn't like the way I did it and you're entitled to
your opinion. if I thought I'd done anything wrong I would apologize, but your "perceptions of sleight" are
your business not mine. the chips will settle out where they may. I am done here because Jeff has asked
that we cease and desist here, and there is nothing productive here anyway.

see you around the forum . . .

might say that all these percieved wicked posters are sent to provide an opportunity to practice compassion,
forgiveness and tolerance.

Jimi Hendrix posters & bean bags...
Hey guys.... just a thought... maybe it is time for a gathering.... We did this once when things were getting a
bit stressfull on the original forum...
I dont know what you think, but we have a party... a house warming so to speak...
Now what made me think of it was the astrology thread... which really has nothing to do with astrology.
Anyway the idea is that you come to the party as someone who shares your birthday... this could get
interesting.. for example will Pawntificator turn up as Bob Marley or Eva Braun.....?
Hey just a thought....

i know this is old news but..
kem, why are you breaking down my post? what the hell is that? my post is mainly opinion and what i think happened. do you think you can explain my feelings better than me? very anal if you ask me. kem alot of people in here consider you some kind of role model or some master of the forums... you seem to have alot of fans. of course this isnt your fault. do you feel some need to break down threads and explain or re-explain them? just curious. i thought it pretty much stood on its own.

Heh heh
I just like the organizational thinking. I admire that. For instance, once I had a pet gerbil that escaped, and I lost it. Then there was that time I cut my toe in the pool.

qiwi
sounds like a great idea, even if i haven't the slightest idea what you are talking about. care to explain?

Mark...
Here's the plan.... you go to the thread entitled Astrology and you provide me with your birthdate....
Nigerian Banking scan you ask?
No mate this is straight up.... you give me the day you were born, year not required, and I provide you with a
list of people you share a birthday with. You select one, and that is who you are going to be at the party
which
Jeff has kindly agreed to have at his house... Thanks Jeff.
