Young grasshopper, Red got to start over, he has been around these forums since you were in diapers.

<< Russ, Harvey, Red Dawn and Athanasius and some others all were made Elite for their contributions to the forums back in the old days when the title actually meant something meaningful. >>



"Back in the old days?" Red joined on June 4th, 2001 7:39 PM. The rest of them pre-date me, but still... >>

His account got messed up "somehow" a while ago...he was here before. >>



Ahhh... k, that explains it. It had seemed to me he had been here for a while, but then I remembered looking at his account and seeing that mine predated his. Oh well

<< Red Dawn - Texmaster threatened a woman? <yawn> Even if a "threat" was really made, I've received tons of threatening messages in the past, but I guess it don't count because I'm not a woman? Heck, I've received physical threats and then the person who was making them was made an Elite even though it was made public that the threats were being made (not just to me, btw, and he hasn't stopped).

As a matter of fact, much of what you and others who are more direct in their flaming post can be considered "threats".

As far as I have been able to tell, the few women who frequent this BBS are more than able to handle themselves and a few threatening words means diddly-squat to them. They can dish it out when they have to as well.

You putting on the "knight, protector of the weak" routine in the hope of getting laid or something?

Actually I never asked for any intervention for anyone posting here, that my friends have felt moved enough to speak up for
me touches me greatly,those who did will be remembered by me most favorably !

For me,this issue was resolved when the thread in question was locked, the mods once again proving they are the final deciders of all things. At this point this thread is way off topic and hopefuilly the mods will decide to lock it as well .
