Guest cosbywasmurdered Report post Posted October 23, 2005 He's a troll, go into any thread he posts in and you'll see why. Like the TNA Impact thread tonight where he starts insulting everything before the show even comes on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bob_barron 0 Report post Posted October 23, 2005 Okay. I'm tired of this thread, which says a lot because I wasn't actually involved in this banning. You people need to fucking grow up and get on with your lives. An e-personality was restricted access from a message board that you have no power on, and you're throwing a shit fit, for some reason. This is sad for a lot of reasons, and all you really have to do, you putrid piles of shit, is look in the mirror to figure them out. Couple things. 1.) Kotz was not made a mod as a joke, and if he was, he would have been cut when I cut the majority of the useless mod staff. He was kept on because he does a good job, and if you think for one minute that he doesn't, you're a fucking idiot who's probably illiterate. 2.) On the subject of illiteracy... Kotz didn't ban Mike. HTQ did. So, the whole "THE MOD AS A JOKE IS THROWING POWER AROUND" schtick doesn't really work here, and you need to shut the fuck up. 3.) The cost of the most recent server upgrade and maintenance exceeds your weekly allowance (I believe the hardware upgrades were in the range of $1,000 to $2,000, and a monthly cost of $100), and thus when it comes to the decision making, you have no say when we want you to have no say. Period. Deal with it. Feel lucky that this thread actually got to last 15 of the most painstakingly awful pages I have ever seen in my history as part of this message board, and that includes a great deal of posts from a great deal of idiots. 4.) MikeSC was a cancer to this board, and if you don't think so, you probably need to be slapped in the fucking face with a taste of reality, because you're so deluded that common sense is the most foreign concept you've ever experienced. Never, ever in my entire history of modding messageboards have I seen one person cause so much strife and bullshit and get away with it. 5.) Quit crying for Dr. Tom. He's not going to bring your "BRINGER OF THOUGHT" back because he doesn't give a shit. I'm sorry to have to break it to you that way, but that's that reality thing again. I'm afraid you are all going to have to exist on your own, without Mike feeding you every conservative thought imaginable. You'll live, I'm sure, you crazy impressionable youngsters you. Finally, get the fuck over it. You are all above the age of 12, I hope, so this is not the nefarious mindcrime you would have everyone believe it is. You will all go on your merry way, and this stupid bullshit will blow over like it always does, so quit your fucking crying and go outside or something. Oh by the way... Just to throw some food for thought. INXS was also banned, but oddly enough... that got ignored. Surprise. I'm going to lock this thread now, because it offends the hell out of me, and proves everyone who's ever said anything bad about TSM right, because of how stupid you all are acting. If you've got a problem with that, I honestly don't give a fuck. Get a fucking grip, you pieces of shit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Brian Report post Posted October 23, 2005 OK, if I understand things, when we reset the board and all the banned were able to return, Mike just never got his license to post revoked like the others did. It's purely a correctional thing. I *personally* thought he was trolling in one of the MMA threads, but I wasn't going to take any action myself because a) we went through this shit before and b) we went through this shit before; so I didn't even bring it up aside from my own post in the thread (I think it's the TUF thread but I'm not sure).

And seriously, if anyone else tries to say that Kotz being made a mod was a joke, I'm going to fucking smack them with a shovel. The dude was so dedicated that he told people he had shifts just so he could go on the board. He deserves a medal or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CheesalaIsGood 0 Report post Posted October 23, 2005 Yeah, this was a "random" banning. The guy can't make an even SEMI-friendly post about anything. No wonder no one wants to hear his shit. I don't think posting on a messageboard should be taken so seriously, however, all you can do is stand by the descisin by those in charge. Ok fine, may not agree with it, but just fine indeed.
