I doubt Jack Frost would approve of closing down so many topics (from what you have said about him). I know this is the wrong place to post too, but I think I need to get your attention. I have stopped using this site because you made it bad. I know you have rules, but you are being far to tough on enforcing them . You make macs look bad. Very sad.
I wonder how long it will take before you shut this topic down (I posted at 2:47). I am sacraficing my user account for the good of this site. Anyone who agrees with me should post quickly before it is locked down. BTW, ip ban will not work on me. for those who have seen james bond: "I am invincible" |

You are so silly it makes me want to weep. Let's bring in Chuck Norris.
Bye, bye, little BadBreath... you are soooo wrong and completely out of line. You know, I actually feel really hurt because of your post. That's a bad thing; it makes me sad. Last edited by Oompa Loompa : 2006-05-15 at 14:43. |

I'm with Yontsey on this one. Regardless of whether people like the way a forum is run or not, there's no need to flounce out in a dramatic fashion. If you don't like a site, don't visit it. It's that simple.
We've had a similar problem on a site that I help to moderate, and it's just plain attention-seeking. There are plenty of sites on the internet that will allow and even encourage your style. Just go out and find them. And invoking the name of a previous Admin who has now passed away to back up your point is way beyond tacky, and in the realms of offensive. Edit: I'm also with 709, to be honest. |

Well, aside from the lameness of the post, I'd be more than willing to listen to legitimate gripes of threads being locked that you feel shouldn't have been locked.
Of course, we also prefer that if you have an issue with an individual, you take it up with them or with another mod/admin via the PM system, so perhaps I'll edit the original post to remove the personal crap. Saying "you lock too many threads" doesn't do much good unless you can give an example of what you feel is an unfair locking/closing of a thread. edit: there, it's no longer a personal attack, but rather a (rough granted) critique. Now, if someone could point out which threads were locked unfairly, this thread might still be salvaged. Google is your frenemy.

Well, guys I would like to apologize for some of the hits I have taken. I love this site, and that is why I won't leave. I am just hurt when I see so many threads shot down that I think it is hard for me to look at posts. I understand that brad likes a nice site, but he is overzealous with his edits. I admit, I was overly mean but I have had a rough day and then while reading think s I remembered how mad I was at applenova (which I have not read in a while). I realize that I should have pm'd but I wanted to have a disscussion about it. I also realize that I did a f*cking horrible job of starting a good disscussion. The comment about making macs look bad. Well if I am a switcher and brad shoots down my post quick, I will be really hurt. The thing about the previous admin may have not been a good choice of args. I apologize for any feelings hurt and I hope I don't get IP banned (even though it wouldn't work). if you still kick me off thats ok too though, I deserve it.
gotta go. sorry. |

That's hilarious. Who are you, again? "I am invisible" would have been more appropriate. |

To reiterate what has already been said well by the other mods, admins, and just plain members:
We lock threads for a reason. If you have an issue with anyone, or with the locking of a thread, or anything else, use the private messaging system. We're people too, you know. AN isn't a business, it's a hobby, and it's not really up to you to tell us how to run our site. We'll listen to your input, but remember that if you want anything to change it's the mods and admins who have to do it on their own free time without any form of compensation other than the satisfaction of having improved the site. I think I'm going to leave this thread open just to spite you... closing it and banning you would only prove your point. We will listen to criticism, but we ask that you not be so incredibly childish about it. Oh, and it's also fun to encourage people to ridicule you, so we may as well leave it open for that reason too. |

There's the feedback forum or PM's to the mods/admins of the site. Creating an account, specifically to attack a person, while offering no useful feedback doesn't help anyone. After looking through your posting history, I didn't see any glaring examples of what you're referring to with your new badbrad account, so please fill me in. Now, since we're no longer pretending that you're a user who just registered their one and only account, and "sacrificed it for the good of all" (I see you tried to kiss a little ass with your applenerd account), do you have any constructive criticism? Google is your frenemy. Caveat Emptor - Latin for tough titty I tend to interpret things in the way that's most hilarious to me |

Maybe that will encourage you to grow up and act like a responsible member of whatever 'other' community you choose to inhabit besides ours. May, 2007. Sounds like an appropriate amount of time for you to stay away and add some maturity to your bag of tricks. |
