"Saw a post by Miles, complaining as usual about one thing or another, what a cunt. Something about Racist Denilson (Miles words not mine) being banned whilst others use the C word, or post pictures of tits, or apparently salivate over drugs?! and it not being fair. Then he talked about irony and hypocrisy. I realised he has no fucking idea what the rules are around here and he also has no idea what irony OR hypocrisy are, what a cunt!.
I then thought, this prick has systematically whinged, whined, sniveled, incited and insulted his way through many years on this forum and he's got the front to say its not fair? CUNT!!
It then dawned on me. Its been yonks since Miles lost a car, or severed an arm, or got into a fight with a kitchen appliance. The unintentional droplets of comedy gold have long since dried up and all that's left is a bitter, aging man. He might as well leave and not come back if the place upsets him so much, no one would care"
The post above is from Memphis, one of the untouchables. They are free to say whatever they like to other posters who have the temerity to question the random bans that take place. They will argue that there is no room for the racism of the likes of Denilson, but long time posters know that racism has long been ignored here. In fact a lot of things get ignored, but if you trigger a Mod you get the kind of post seen above. Those are the examples one must follow.
I don't feel like an especially bitter, aging man, but what I do feel is that people get banned unfairly and that is all that I was pointing out. Instead you end up with a strange kind of character assassination as a response. I feel like a very fortunate man with several months a year vacation, pay that constantly goes up and a chance to live life in a newly healthy and productive way. Injustice does upset me and to be insulted in such a way by a Mod that I have never insulted in such a way is also rather upsetting. I would expect nothing less.
Mods, posters don't care too much. We all love boxing. Some a little too much. At the end of the day it's a form of entertainment so try to enjoy it. I hate when my guys get beat and there are some crazy fans out there that get too involved it stuff that doesn't really matter. I just skip those threads or posts and talk about stuff that interests me. If I cross a line let me know I wouldn't intentionally want to offend. Everyone on Saddo's has been great in my short time here. I just laugh to myself when I see something that seems irrational and let it go.
Gandalf has spoken. I have just drunk a Samuel Smith's organic chocolate stout for breakfast. I was the first defender of Gandalf going all the way back to 2012 when I noticed that an oddly High number of people were calling him a cunt. I was subsequently Band 3 times since 2012 or was it twice I cannot remember anymore and one of the mods who banned me on my last band admitted that they were supposed to ban Bill Paxton instead of me.
I have found all of the mods on this one to be quite fair and they have their human moments just as we have. I would not want to be moderating a forum with members who are the likes of Beanz and Ross and finita El dinamita.

FinitoElDinamita practically bought the rope, tied the noose, looked for the high branch, tied off the rope, put the noose around his neck, and jumped. He was downright racist... and was given boo-coo warnings before he got canned. Can't say I miss his metrosexual posts. His mentor I agree was racist to the Nth degree (not to mention sexist), and for some reason survived a few years. Luckily he apparently found other pastures in which to graze.
Ross is obnoxious, but hardly bannable.
As I said a few posts back before getting ambushed... Mods have a difficult job, and one of the best qualities they can have is consistency. If you're trigger-happy, be trigger-happy with EVERYBODY, and from day to day. If you're more lenient, same thing goes.
We're pretty much a community here, just going by the number of years many of us have been here. With a few notable exceptions, I'd love to meet just about everyone here personally. I'd bet it would be a blast.
Oh... I forgot Miles. Miles is a long-standing member here and.... although a bit weird at times... is a great contributor to the forum, off the wall as he may be sometimes.I also appreciate his honesty in talking about issues like the Mods. It's not like it's the Gestapo, where one day you're talking about them and the next day you're counting bubbles from the bottom of a river.
Originality I like, even if it's controversial. Sneakiness, hypocrisy, and favor-seeking I don't. Gee......... just like real life.![]()
