My thoughts as well! I was enjoying that thread, but it was locked before I could completely understand what the fight was about. Hopefully this one will stay open for a bit longer.

So could someone set me straight about this? What did Ca$h do to this poor old guy that got him so upset? And why did Steve record the conversation?

The guy was definitely a weirdo, but
- he was accusing Stephen of passing information to Cash
- Stephen recorded the conversation
- Cash posted the conversation

seems like he might have been right, no?

"Well, back when I started posting on MacNN, it was a dull lifeless lump of crap. A bunch of non social geeks basically. (Some people were cool, but none of them were quite as 'colorful' in the way they expressed themselves as myself). So anyway, I came along, originally just to find out info on my old imac, then I found the lounge. Started ranting about stupid things, asking questions, disagreeing with idiots, etc.

Wlonh hated me from the get go... and so he started just DELETING all my posts. This pissed me off, which caused me to post more. Then he banned my screenname, thus the started the 'legendary' status I have over there. I re-registered a 2nd name, and came back and kept posting. I did this because Wlonh was STILL deleting all my crap, even if it was just some mundane post. It's not that it actually MATTERED to me, it was more of a 'principle' thing. It just ticked me off. ANyway, eventually some mods were annoyed with Wlonh, so they started to side with me. Then he got pissed off, and called them, and other mods gave me a call, ... it was stupid. In the end, I won, Wlonh left, and life was merry."

I was curious too. Nothing special though... just blah blah blah to me.

I was thinking the guy in the recording was related to the teacher from Ferris Buller, but when he says "I... am... old... enough.... to.... be.... your... father" I thought for a second that it was Darth Vader.

LOL, classic stuff there.
Wlonh was a nice guy...if you never disagreed with him about anything.
Otherwise he was an arrogant bastard. Good post back there ca$h. He's even more pompous in person than in text. Reminds me of when Wlonh went off the deep end after OCN "hacked" the SETI@home forum, leading to his retirement. Glad I started that flamewar, even if everyone else on both sides(besides Wlonh) knew it was in good fun.

Ok posters time to let them have it. MacNN Staff It's our duty to let MacNN know we hate intelliTXT!
