The LSF
It was already in decline, now it seems completely gone.

Crap!
I guess it was that thread about the spinach...too controversial. Oh no!! That is THIS club!! Someone, delete the spinach thread, quick!

And now it's back. That was weird.

Nope
It's still gone. Well, it's there but it's not. I mean, i can read it but I can't post because i have been "removed from the club by the moderators." The club is temporarily inactive. What the hell. maybe someone forgot to pay the water bill. Shoot, I hope it wasn't me.

I have no idea. I had a message that I had been removed from the club by the club moderators, then noticed that the LSF did not appear in the clubs listing.
None of the mods had been in contact with me. I was rather sarcastic in a post about the latest " Muslim/Pope's speech " issue, but judging from other posts my general sentiments were shared by the majority.
Just received a pm that seems to indicate that all members received that message.

Look, whatever happened, TLSF is gone and that's a good thing. Still a bit weird to end a club by booting all members.

obv.
it is NOT a good thing. loss of a forum where folks feel comfortable sharing their ideas is never good! even if you and i and others were booted, it is still good for that forum to exist.

I just got banned from TLSF.
It was because I made fun of Condoleeza Rice's teeth. Dok called me a racist, then had the audacity to ban me from his club for it. I put in that we ban him from ours for repayment.

I agree with you bobby.
His calling my insult racist is plain old stupidity, and not a bannable offense. I've sat on the side of the road during a KKK rally and threw insults at them with my black friends, calling them chicken for wearing masks. I don't care if someone wants to call me a racist for being at a racist rally, but on the other side of it. Jeff informed me that the club closed down, and that I wasn't banned because of that. It's only when my life is affected by stupidity, do I actually fight it. Since the entire club was closed, and I was not singled out and banned alone, I will not go any further with the talk of banning. It was my mistake to think I was singled out.

I used to live in the neighboring town of the Grand Wizard.
Or Green Wizard, or Lizard, or whatever they call him. The biggest racist on the east coast. I felt what better place to be heard? Go into the den and scare them personally.

FBI won't stop a KKK or Nazi rally in the U.S.A.
It's their right to congregate. Just as it is ours to congregate within feet, and let them know we're here too.

Let it die...
tlsf was closed due to health reasons by its founder. He would have closed it sooner but was coaxed into keeping it afloat a little longer. But I guess with the illness it was too much for him to handle. The end.
soulcrates
18-Sep-06, 14:20

I was in the club,
but I didn't know the founder, nor whether he had an illness. Is it physical or mental, fatal, or livable? Who was the founder?

18-Sep-06, 14:22

Jeff, your posting was inane, small and lame!
soulcrates

I will report him Obviously.
He used the word "Trivi*l". That offends me.

That would be a personal philosophy that I agree with 110%.

Unless there's a paycheck involved... in which case, I go into the den and sell them my side of the story in a compelling and non-threatening fashion. That can be frightening enough, when done properly.

Yes Kem,

I still wonder if...
..there is some mix up with a subscription fee or something. If the LSF was to close , surely there would be
a post to that effect.

dok is /was the founder. He's been struggling thse last few months with Gillian barre syndrome (sp)
which is a nasty paralysis condition that usually but not always resolves. (This is info he's made public here
so no breach of confidence)

" There is always more than 1 way to skin a cat" .

I'm reporting that post to the RSPCA.

Yours regrettably,

I'll use Itchy and Scratchy as character witnesses.
I've also got Tony the Tiger's number, so if I need a 3rd witness, he's my ringer.

Soul
You are an ignnoramous. As I mentioned several times, I was struck with a life threatening disease which left me paralyzed and without reflexes...ie, swallowing, coughing etc...

So while you and obviously are making remarks about a) how great it is that my Club failed or   making assertions that I banned you for calling you a racist, etc....

I will share with you the fact that I have been unable to work, take care of myself, have wet myself, puked on myself and still have been able to keep things afloat. Im 10 months into it and will likely face several more yours of rehab, etc...and I simply was unable to spend the necessary time required to make the club work.

Your lack of civility is remarkable. GK required that I remove each member before deleting the club. So I spent a half an hour doing so, and closed the door.
While you continue to act like a complete ass, I thought others might like to know what happened. Perhaps you could make fun of how I walk now or how I cant sleep properly or something as a means of making a few political points, since that seens to be your style.

Youre assessmnet of my comments has been juvenile and full of ignorant remarks that have nothing to do with my assessments of your torturously complex means of finding new and frighteningly bizarre ways of demonstrating that ignorance.

For hells sake, youve got Jeff agreeing with me...

Anyway, I will go swallow a handful of pills, hook up my oxygen and try to sleep...althoough this disease causes me to wake up 59 times per hour...and I will try to pretend people like you are just sick and need serious help. Id suggest markallen for starters, as he is a professional in the field who agrees with your politics.

To the rest of you, should you have the tenacity to still be reading this, good night.

Good night, Ty
Thank you for the explanation. I am certain I would have gone crazy without ever knowing the truth.

Obviously, you are just bitter because you weren't part of that club. Also, perhaps your ego is too enlarged to ever take back anything you said, no matter how hurtful. That is a demon I hope you overcome.

Soulcrates, itchy and scratchy are damning character witnesses, but perhaps fitting in this case. After all, "they fight, and bite, and fight and bite and fight."

Well, that is all I wanted to know. That it wasn't my fault. After all, I did leave the word **** in one of my posts and I don't think anyone ever deleted it. I was afraid that was the reason the club was disbanded. PHew!
