And here I was thinking this was still America...

Yea... it dragged between PL and the general area.
True.. there was some funny ass shit in that thread.
It just got outta control.

I don't know if it got out of control or not. I do know that alot of what he got, he brought on himself. It did go on for a while, maybe that's how some might think it got out of control. But you have to admit, he wouldn't have been able to do it if fett didn't post a ton of drivel threads.

[toejam]

I guess his profile doesn't show it.
Maybe he was put in quiet time for a bit?

His profile doesn't show it, but Kevin had enough of him and banned him.

fett's gone..wow, thats too bad. Well, as far as airjamie..I gave him my advice and left it alone. I didn't want to beat a dead horse into a mushy pulp.

I think he got the message, and hopefully learn from his mistakes. We all made them, and know I have. He seems like a nice kid, he doesn't come off as a "dummy". He just had a little too much fun for one night. Sometimes that'll cost ya..but that's how you learn. I think he will..non of us ever stop learning.

Which brings me to fett..I think he's a genuinely very nice guy. But, sometimes you had to be careful in dealing with him. He seemed a little sensitive and got angry at the slightest things at times ..I've been guilty of that. Especially when I first joined this forum. I've learned to "relax" much more, give people their space and learn how to laugh at myself. I rarely get into shitstorms or pissing matches these days. If I'm having a bad day..I'm usually not here.

There's a couple that will take their jabs at me,..it's always the same people. But, that's ok, I give them their space. No need to get into a pissing match because someone don't like me. Actually, I think it makes it easier not to bother with them. I don't take it personal when someone doesn't like me. They could be very nice people. Some people don't gel for whatever reasons, wich may or may not be the case in the real world. That's human nature..so be it. People are people, they are who they are..it is what it is. Nobody is ever going to change anyone to suit their liking..not now , not ever.

Unless, someone puts a real fuckin' to me I hold no grudge. To be honest, there is not a single person on this forum I have any grudges with..not one! In reality, I had very few in my 44 years in the real world..That is 100% truth.

What I find silly is that people will explain or attempt to justify why they don't like me. That's like explaining why there's air. I don't really care why. People are who they are, it is what it is..period.

You're NEVER too old to learn,..which I just explained above.

Does he get his 20 bucks back?

As soon as we get all 2000 rolled.

So did he get warned, or just banned? And if others were goading him, was anything said to them about it? Just wondering....

Fett has a short fuse but he's also a good guy. If someone goaded him again on purpose to get him banned, and there were no repercussions for doing that, that would suck.

On the other hand, if he was warned and got shitty with Kevin or any other admin again, then he'd have it coming. Maybe someone who saw it come down would enlighten us on a few details?

[Spivonious]

Geez, Fett is really banned? I feel sorry for him. He got upset because of a thread that existing to make fun of him and he gets banned instead of the thread starter. What a world.

[Bengal]

You can read all about fetts side from that other Jackson forum. They have posted all the dirty laundry there.

Seems like fett and his crony have taken thier "show" on the road. Fine by me. The crony keeps checking here though. Even though he says he's done with this site on that other one.

As for what was said, I have no idea. If it went down in the PL, all us no paying douches have no idea. Sounds like fett might have sent a threatening pm, reading what he's posted over there. But I don't really know. You know how fett talks, in riddles.

There wasn't a vote though, which I find interesting. I thought Platinum Members had to go through a vote to get banned? I don't think fett would have been banned if that was the case, I'm not sure though.

Interesting though, no doubt.

I don't know. I believe he was warned. I think he also started harassing people by PM, but you'd have to ask Kevin specifically.

[horns666]

Rich..I observed a thread that showed fett was warned by Kev. It started with a very simple and extremely reasonable request not to clutter the VIP section with a barrage of silly threads. That went over with fett like a led fart..because fett felt entitled because he paid his membership...somethig along those lines.

Shawn started "Fetts New Trailer" as a random thought thread, much like my thread is. He could have bumped that ONE thread with whatever he wanted to share. That didn't go over very well, review that thread and it is obvious why. He PMd me and told me that the "forum was mine"..which I thought was odd. At that time I started another thread for him simply titled "Fett", you could see he wasn't interested in that as well. His ongoing tactics to bump other threads to the second page was his exact intentions. This is more than speculation. In hindsight, that odd PM he sent me confirmed my suspicion. Which now clear as crystal!!!

Maybe that may shine a little light on this matter after the fact.

I know Joe did warned both or all parties to knock it off..as far as the arguement baiting were concerned...if I remember correctly.

We all thought that too, but apparently the rules were "clarified" and that they only apply to activities in the PL area.
So if he F'd up in the PL area, it would come to a vote.
Outside the PL area, normal forum rules apply.
