Let them have a forum, if it will keep them from coming on here and acting ridiculous.

I don't expect that forum to do much but if people prefer it, more power to them.

I would encourage you to delete every link to that place that is posted here. </div></div>

I second that.

Oh no, if people would prefer that environment, I am more than happy to allow them.

I know we ain't perfect on here, but if someone prefers Bobby and others, then good riddance in my opinion.

I dont consider it a competition, if some hate it here so bad, then maybe they would prefer an alternate environment. To each their own.

It's hardly a competition - it's the skimming off of the scum.

I just dont understand why people who "hate" 99% of this forum insist on hanging around and clinging and re-registering, etc.

There are various reasons. Some feel they've been railroaded. Others enjoy the banter but cannot control themselves.

When I first got online back in 99, I only visited one forum. Spent a ton of time there 99-02. Made a lot of friends. The owners decided they didn't like me and a couple of other people. So they just went ahead and banned us. Not long after that they went to a pay-to-play format.

One of the other people they banned had spent a lot of time and money helping them set up new forum software as they were too cheap to pay someone to do it for them. Now, some 5 years later, they're running forum software that is horribly outdated. All because they're too cheap to upgrade, never mind that every user (around 4000) pays at least $25 a year for forum access.

There are all kinds out there. As for myself, there are a lot of users on my forums that I hate, yet I don't shitcan them. The ones that are shitcanned did more than enough to earn it.

Once a person has been banned a few times, they do get a little pissed off and want to do nothing but cause more trouble.

Then again, Bobby could just be [censored] in the head...

It's the same way with radio hosts like Stern, Opie and Anthony, ect. People keep paying attention because even though they hate it, they can't turn away. As much as Chubz, LPDFTBL, ect say that they hate this place, they can't leave. If Rock told LPDFTBL right now that he could rejoin under the same name, no questions asked, he'd be reregistered in 30 seconds. The problem with ^^^ these people is that they don't have any kind of internal filter. They think everyone is supposed to agree with them. If they do something wrong and have to have someone like Rock come down on them, it's unfair and they're in the right. You can't make everyone happy, not everyone on here is going to get along. Those mentioned above can't figure that out.

**Ironlung** · May 22nd, 2007, 10:28 PM

I don't either. Chubz hasn't been annoying or a problem in a long time.

**R0cketer** · May 22nd, 2007, 10:31 PM

Nope Chubz grew up and I told him as much.

I hope he's just searching and will show back up come football season.

Nice link on the Cumberlandsports forum. Might post one on here just as a caution.

[censored] up in the head.....Kinda like the girl playin Drums on your signature??? haha

**NotSoSilentBob** · May 22nd, 2007, 10:15 PM

I'm not saying that in terms of competition, I'm saying it because that place is full of malware. I deleted every reference to it on my site and will continue to do so.

Bad enough that Bobby McDrunkard is running the thing, but if he can't find a better host, then he's up [censored] creek. I wonder how many computers will be infected by that shithole?

He also made a post talking about people "spreading rumors" that the site was full of spyware and viruses. He said that it was a lie and that they had a couple of popups that would be taken care of after the "update".
