Great. ****ing awesome. Brassplayersrock makes it his personal vendetta to harass me and bait me at every possible point he can, I start reporting his posts, and now he and I BOTH get banned. Way to really make people have FAITH in the system.

He claimed I don't love my wife. He attacked me. He'd come into random threads just to bait me and attempt to piss me off. His intentions were CRYSTAL clear, that he had it out for me. I suggested he ignore me, multiple times, yet he kept asking for me to either get banned, or to never post here again, ever.

I can quote ALL that stuff if you'd like, but I don't think I need to, since I reported all of those instances.

So my question is: Why the HELL am I banned when he was out to get ME?! This doesn't make any freaking sense. I will 'live out my ban' with centerchannel68, but I will use this screenname only for this thread. I won't be suprised if this name gets banned also, but I will ONLY use this SN for this thread only, because I feel totally wronged here. I was NOT attacking people. I was NOT singling people out and calling htem names.

For the reason, you claimed "I was being a jerk". SO WHAT?! Newsflash mods!! MOST PEOPLE AT MACNN ARE JERKS! Railroader pisses people off on a regular basis. So does Kevin, in his pretentious condescending manner. Cipher was pissing HisDudeness off. HisDudeness was attacking Doofy! I try to be helpful or humorous in most of my posts, and I get into a legitmate argument where I refrain from calling names and I get banned?!

WHY?

How have I 'done wrong' more than anybody else here? This decision to ban me when a certain member here was doing everything in his power to attack me, harass me and bait me is complete HORSECRAP.

Also, OTHER people were actually calling names and attacking each other, and I was making it a POINT not to call names and attack people, specifically because I DONT WANT TO GET BANNED AGAIN.

The fact that I'm banned shows what BS the rules are enforced by. If anything a few other people should be banned for breaking the rules, but I haven't broken them!

Doofy · Apr 17, 2007, 06:00 PM

Yeah, I don't get it either.

Rumor · Apr 17, 2007, 06:11 PM

If you know someone is baiting you, just put them on ignore. Eventually, they will get the picture.

I expect more originality from you Rob.

Do you believe that your posts including SUVs and sports in the VT thread, not to mention your signature, were free of any type of baiting?

This isn't really an outrage.

Peter · Apr 18, 2007, 04:11 AM

you'll live dear.

Yeah Rob tends to exaggerate. Esp when it has to do with him. And some injustice that he feels has happened to him.

Or if e sees someone putting on chapstick.

Mastrap · Apr 18, 2007, 05:55 AM

I agree with Rob. He was being remarkably restrained in his reaction to brassplayers.

On the other hand Rob, look at it at cosmic justice for all of the other bans you did evade.

You must have not read the thread I was reading where he was telling people that felt any remorse for the victims of the shooting that they were abnormal and had mental problems. Or those he was personally attacking before brassplayer got into it with him.

While that may be true (and may not be) since my eye's started glazing over when both of them got into it. There's been other threads where Rob failed to show such restraint and that is the rule rather then the exception. Its not like people are out to get him as he claims over and over. He seems to invite it by his demeaning, inflammatory comments, which seem to cross the line of accepted behavior for adults.

I'm sorry Kevin, but your statements are false.

I NEVER said that feeling 'any remorse' is a mental problem.

NEVER.

I'll repeat it 5 more times for you, since you apparently don't read very well.

I said that 'grieving' over the deaths of complete strangers is VERY abnormal, and could be a sign of mental problems

As Cipher has said, sadness, sure, sympathy, sure, grief, NO.

I really don't see why this is such a hard concept for you to understand, it's quite clear.

As for my statements regarding SUV drivers and sports fanatics, I generally think that those types of people are complete idiots. I can have that opinion as long as I am not personally attacking someone, and singling them out. I was not ATTACKING anybody. I was expressing my opinion about that type of person, and other people were agreeing with me. That is NOT against the rules.

Hence why I'm pissed off that somebody banned me. I was not breaking the freakin' rules.

I am entitled to express my opinion here. I am not attacking someone personally. If I think that sports fanatics and SUV owners are generally idiots, I can express that opinion freely, so long as I am not attacking someone personally. It is not sexually explicit, hateful, racist, or anything else that MacNN does not allow.

Sure, sure.

That's why I'm going to live out the ban before returning. I actually might not even return til the semester is over, I have a lot of work to do.

That is not what Kevin said. The word "sad" is not in his post.
