Hi Fett. We know you're here!!

[shobet]

I think you all should fuck off and leave me in charge!

[~K~]

He was told by me to knock it off. He assumed that he could just pay to be platinum and move his BS into the platinum area. I posted telling him please don't turn that area into what he did to this forum. I got a message telling me basically, He paid his dues and he'll do what he wants .. so i told him to go ahead and I'd ban him ....

So now he wont post at all because he's

[rjohnstone]

I thought the Platinum lounge was an "anything goes so long as it's not illegal" area?
Guess I read that wrong.
I also though banning a Platinum member was by a vote from the other Platinum members?
Guess I read that wrong too.

That, sir, is exactly what we were told. We can post anything as long as it is not illegal, and that bannings of Platinum Members are to be voted on by the other Platinum Members.

Guess $15 doesnt get you much these days huh?

So much for pay and do what ya want as long as its not illegal.

[bonghits]

Better watch out what you say about fett or Cyg will come along and try to get you banned.

I just noticed that Cyg has been gone as long as fett has. Birds of a feather? Both the same dude? Lovers? Who knows.

2 birds with 1 stone, I say.

:ROTF: I especially like "Both the same dude? Lovers?" bit.:ROTF:

I don't know about the Platinum debate and will keep those thoughts to myself. I can however say shobet wins.

rjohnstone's avatar deserves a big:

[~K~]

Yup it is .. but heres the deal ..

1) I had and continue to have little to do with that area
2) Fett assumed he could just pay for platinum membership and do whatever he wished.. he got the membership specifiacally for that
3) I asked him not to make that area a clusterfuck nicely.. instead I got told he'll do whatever he wants ..


So can anyone be a regular member, start a boatlaod of shit and then just pay the fee and not be banned after the fact? That imo is what he tried to do ..

Formerly anyone who posted a farewell thread got the thread locked and got their account locked .... which is what should have happened to him when that shit started

[~K~]

BTW sense of entitlement was EXACLY why I didn't agree with this whole thing

BUT,,, Arent the other paying mebers supposed to vote him off the island and not an admin? Doesnt the fee get you at least that? Not that I care whether he gets banned or quits posting or whatever. Its the internet and not real life right?

[~K~]

you guys CAN do whatever you want in there and yes you have to be voted for banning. The issue didn't arise because he was a plastinum member causing trouble, it came because he was a regular member who thought he was going to circumvent the BS by going platinum ...

Kev, look at it this way... we havent seen ANY of the perks WE PAID FOR thus far... so I guess Fett is getting his moneys worth one way or another. I thought the platinum membership was a great idea, and was in on it the first day... thats only because I thought we would get what we PAID FOR. Here we are, months later, and still nothing... nothing but a classifieds format that noone likes and noone really posts in.

I dont have any problems with fett, and do enjoy his posts most of the time... though, I really dont think he had 100% intentions of buying the membership just so he couldnt be banned.

Have they started the contest for the body that Learn painted yet?
