Mods (you, too, Jarmo) - lets settle this. (aka: Bias is fun, isn't it?)

[darknemus]

let me post a thread in the Jungle and I think you'd be surprised by the responders.  95% of the people who posted in the previous gnfr.com thread have never stepped foot in any chatroom that I've been in.

So, come on - lets really see what the 'people' think on this  

-darknemus

[Chris Misfit]

Go compile a list of people that want the thread re-opened. That'll give you something to do, for a while.

Now - how would you suggest I do that?  I'm not going to disturb random users with PM's, as that's just unclassy.

I already suggested a way of doing that. If you find PM's to be "unclassy" that's not my fault.

So why dont we go with the poll thing?  I mean, you seem so sure that people think its a waste of time and that we should get out more.  So, come on, have some cojones and lets try it.  We'll see what kind of response there REALLY is.  When the response kicks you in the face, expect me to be there to pick you up, too - because its not personal.. its just a matter of principle.

I never said people think it's a waste of time, I said I think it's a waste of time.

I don't care if you get 20,000 people, or 2 people, the thread is locked.

You keep getting paranoid that people hate you.   Are you in therapy?

Anyway, you never even responded to my Cricket argument. People of all ages play it, could be a great way of making friends, and I here there's always a bit of a session afterwards.

GNFR.com Cricket team, anyone?

I created the penis game trying to bring some fun to the jungle and it seems people enjoy it so I have done what I set out to do which is let the people have fun

Yeah? Well, I'm itching to delete that.

Feel free to delete I just want a good reason  on why you want to delete it

[AdZ]

does anybody else seem to think the idea 'we dont want it here' is not getting through?

[darknemus]

Ok, Chris.  So I'll write a script that automatically PMs everyone on HTGTH.  I'll make sure to post all the responses, positive and negative, in an open forum - with copies on my website.  Is that an acceptable answer to this?

And if the ratio of 'yes' beats out 'no' to unlocking the thread.. then what?  It's still gonna be locked.. its just going to make you look worse.

I'm not paranoid, dude.  I KNOW certain people have 'issues' with me due to the Latigo thing.  That's fine and dandy - but to deny otherwise would be wrong, I think.

I was only teasing. Don't like the thread myself, but I won't be locking/deleting it.

[AdZ]

Yeah, and it's the same with this thread, I'm almost certain you can argue all you want but it's gonna stay locked.

[darknemus]

Well, Chris said I should compile a list.  He's now advocated me privately disturbing the entire subscribed base of HTGTH with a PM.  Adz, do you also feel I should take that course of action?

Because I agree with him - we should compile a list.

Then you get banned for spamming.

Personally, I think most people would say "I don't care".....


But, anyway it's locked. Goodbye GNFR thread, accept it.

ok I wasnt worried or anything like that  I mean it's just a thread  it's not a life or death situation I was just saying if you were going to delete it I wanted a good reason.but I see there is no reason since you won't be deleting it

[Chris Misfit]

It's never going to be opened again. As I said before, I'm just looking for new ways of keeping you guys occupied, you don't seem to have many ideas yourself and you're blatantly ignoring my Cricket comments.

Would you be ashamed to play Cricket? I know it's dogged as an "old mans sport" but really, I think, with alot of young guys, or maybe even girls, Cricket could be a worldwide sport.

I KNOW certain people have 'issues' with me due to the Latigo thing.  That's fine and dandy - but to deny otherwise would be wrong, I think.

Got medication?

I get banned for taking an action a mod suggests?  Where's the logic in that?

every week on this board we get a new rumor about CD and then some newbie asking the same stupid question about whatever.

CD may never see the light of day.  we have no offical news.  the dvds aren't anything new.  nothing is happen is gnr world.  is this board a place for the fans to hang out or is it a place for jarmo and the mods to be power crazy?  because with no news, nothing happening, i don't see the harm of that thread being here.  the fans were having fun with it.  i could care less if it actually has anything to do with the band or not, that doesn't matter.  it was fun, and it was the fans having some fun.  so jarmo, who is this board for the fans or you?

[AdZ]

I think you shouldn't take course in that action at all.  I think you should drop it and go talk about it at your msn group!

[Chris Misfit]

I'm not your average Mod. And it was a sarcastic comment. We do not care about the thread, or who wants it opened.

[darknemus]

I'm not addressing your Cricket comment because I dont know the first thing about it.  Sorry, I'm not prepared to talk on a subject I have no knowledge of.

Its never going to be opened again for one reason - because it tweaked you guys.  And you know it.  I dont quite know why - but its obvious its been a 'problem' for the mod crew for a while.  Funny, never seemed to bug most of the people posting in it.

He was joking. Did you also consider taking up cricket as he suggested?

Yes, we've been saying that the last 3 and a half pages.

[dave_guns]

what does jarmo offer you people that you have to kiss his ass so much?

[AdZ]

'lock' and 'ban' buttons.
