Name them. You can't.

I have been the only one here to stand up publically about this double standard bs. Favor some that do alot of shit, ban some who do a little shit. There shouldn't be any favoritism or double standard here.


You are the only one who could stand up to us? Hell, you could play defensive tackle for the Broncos. I have seen you, remember?

C'mon...seriously. You have had a bug up your ass about Deano for a long time now. Same with your friends. You will do anything you can to see him banned. He reacts to your posts - do you think I'm stupid?
It's always about Deano...bitch and moan and complain.

And who are the good folks that contribute so much that I have banned? Please...I'd like examples.

Not at all. I disagree with Dean ALOT and debate him with facts. Name calling is pointless, it's just disruptive. You notice Dean only name calls when it's returned, just feeds the fire.


Don't know exactly what happened here last night, and I'm actually quite glad I missed it. But, RWF, I have to disagree with your 3rd sentence. While Dean has brought a lot of good information and discussions to this board, he has also wreaked more havoc than any other single poster that I know of. There have been many fine quality people that have left MR because of the insults that have been hurled at them from some of the regulars here. Those that stand up against it are ganged up on. I've been part of it, and I have been victim to it, so I know of what I speak.

I'd like nothing more than to see folks be able to have a great conversation without personal insults, but until that is expected AND enforced on ALL sides, this type of stuff will happen. Ultimately, it's up to TPTB to decide what kind of forum they want, and then have the nads to stand behind it.

This Jerry Springer bullshit is not for me and to even waste your time arguing with someone about something as trivial as a rock band shows you need to put some soothing Gold Bond medicated powder your chafed ballsacks or something.

Its as laughable as my grammar !

Look, fight all you want but do me a small favor. Stay the fuck out of my thread please if you cant keep it civil..

Thank you..

Edit:

Can we lock our own threads if we wish ?


Dude, I hear you. Those assholes are gone and ain't comin' back.

I say redo the thread.


Ahem, two assholes are still here, and that is you and Dan.


Why not ignore them both. :?

I don't have a problem with people getting on Deano for what he does here. However, what I do have a problem with are those who are all of a sudden jumping on the "punish Deano" bandwagon when, previously, Monker was the only one who was constantly railing against Andrew for the supposed double standard.

Er no...that is not correct and sadly one poster caused a huge division among a number of posters here and you and your friend Crazyrockldy are part of the other side, whose aim is to have Deano banned from this site.

Please...discuss Journey by all means, and this goes for all - the inter-personal crap has to stop.

The reason why I do this is because there is a double standard and favoritism here, Andrew. Dean has/ will start up shit on his own, unprovoked, and have you banned him because of the shit he says? I haven't seen it. And I am not the only one who sees this. Remember the thread I sent you? The one I sent from people who see this shit, and wonder why you let it go on. Some people stay away because of it. How would this look to your sponsors?

Yes, he does react to my posts, whether I am dealing with his bs or not. Dean provokes people Andrew, and so does Dan. Closing your eyes and not dealing with it is making this board look bad. And this shit has been going on for years, Andrew. You know this to be true.

This was a great place to be, but if favoritism and double standard is the norm here, then it isn't the great place it used to be.

Donna, answer me one question then, honestly? Why do you tolerate the behaviour from some and not others then? My answer to that is because I can see when somebody has malicious intent and when somebody doesn't.

I saw your thread....but I have to consider the source it comes from. You are as bias in one way of thinking as the bias you accuse me of in the other direction.

So please allow me to run the board as I see fit and as I see necessary. I'll live with the consequences of that, ok.

I have no "aim", Andrew. I just want to be treated with the respect that I deserve, and I want to see others treated likewise. The contention that Dean only "responds" with insults when he is baited is simply NOT TRUE, and it bugs me to see that because people that don't know any better actually believe it. I have and will continue to give him credit where credit is due. But he is not the 'savior' of Journey and the 'king' of this board. I am an adult participant of this forum who has supported MR with my time and money, and as such I deserve to be treated with respect. You as the moderator have a responsibility to see that that happens.

What "one poster" are you referring to? The person that caused a division among posters here is the one that told NUMEROUS people that if they chose to have friends of their own liking then they would become the enemy. I can guarantee you it's not who you are suggesting.

I didn't name call you Andrew. I would hope you would extend the same courtesy to me.

Dean disrupts this board more times than I can count, unprovoked and provoked. I admit I provoke him sometimes. Others, he does the provoking, and I might be in a thread, responding nicely to what was posted, and he does come in and starts shit. I am no angel, and neither is Dean. But it is there just the same. Dean does provoke as much as being provoked by others.

Right.

Well, this is my board, so I'm gettng the last say on this.

TO ALL - I DO NOT WANT TO SEE ANY MORE POSTS ABOUT THIS ANYWHERE - OK?

No baiting and no personal attacks.

NO ONE has a free ride on that, so let's see who can behave and who can't?

THANKS TO ALL FOR YOUR INPUT.
