    Fine.

    Krieg1981 gave you 52 reps of which only 26 are negs. The rest are 0 or pos reps.

    TheBrew gave you 36 reps of which 22 are negs, the rest are 0 or pos reps.

    TheStig gave you ...well, "Cannot find user TheStig".

    I can't say I'm impressed. It's barely a repwar in comparison to others around here.

    However, you should get a special prize for repwhining over a repwar which mostly happened in 2009, two years later.

    :blink:

    Jeeeesus wept, what the fuck is all of this bullshit? I've seen some whining in my day around here but this last bout of :drama: all but leaves me speechless.

    It's the Red Room dumbass, if you want reasonable discussion may I suggest the numerous other fourms to try to look down your fucking nose at us.

    Ignore is your friend. Use it or shut the fuck up about it.

    Pathetic. :jayzus:

    I'm glad my time here and my actions have been noted and accusations like those made against me are dismissed.

    I don't believe Tamar has access to those, but if she somehow does, you could have deleted them.

    That said, I'm far more inclined to think Eminence is being a huge drama queen. Like, Forgies-nominee material for next year. Really, dude? The most minor of skirmishes from 2 years ago, and everyone's out to get you? Paranoid much?

    To my knowledge, I have no way of accessing anyone else's PMs.

    There is a really difficult way to do it if you are a programmer but I have no understanding of how. I only know Nick accomplished it once long ago. :shrug:

    To be fair, there has been two-way drama between you two for awhile now. Some of your rep comments to him were pretty slimy, as was his to you.

    But it's the RR. :shrug:

    I am just tired of anyone bitching about someone else and then refusing to use the ignore function and simply end the issue once and for all.

    That reminds me of some of the TKarma wars back when I joined in 2005. Dear lord, when Gagh wanted to neg someone, he'd bury them in red.

    Eminence, you're making RickDeckard and John Castle's rep'whine' threads pale in comparison here. Good job. :jayzus:

    The best part is was this: Eminence went all spazzy-mcspazzerson about something and went on a rep-bomb. I think most of mine were out of annoyance with it, but I am not a mighty rep warrior and got bored.

    Then again, Eminence is from CA which is famous in part for its whine country.

    Any drama between him and I starts and ends with him. I ignore him long enough until he pisses me off then I lose my temper and go off.

    The last time it happened is when I got a warning last year.

    If you want to know what really happened go ask someone in TNZ cuz Eminence obviously can't be believed and I can't possibly be bothered.

    And? What I did notice was you mentioning other people's comments and threads on a specific while completely ignoring your own.

    Way to win the prize. :garamet:

    Maybe it's because without rereading my own thread, which I had no intention of doing save for confirming your claim you've never said the term 'pedoray' in 14th's direction, I didn't consider it worth bringing up at all. Maybe, without rereading my thread, I don't consider my thread to be more entertaining than Eminence's little meltdown here.

    Go stand in the corner.

    Who’s repwhining?? Of all the things I mentioned, the take away from all that was I’m somehow bothered by rep from two years ago? Really, does that even make sense? No? Then don’t steer the conversation as to being all about rep. It’s not.

    It has a little more to do with something like this….

    So it went…..maybe 100…maybe 200, maybe more….times. Some of these folks btw also post here.

    Anyway, at some point you lose track of count of exactly how many times, and I don’t think I ever quite realized just how hateful these so-called “liberals” can be till that day. Someone finally said (something along the lines of) “wow, I know sometimes when we say “kill yourself” it’s a joke, but today it’s a little bothersome because when people are saying it, it sounds like they’re really wanting for him to kill himself.”

    Now here’s the real kicker. There were TWO such threads like this. The first one…once it started heading this direction, the TBBS Administrator closed. I think maybe she felt sorry for me, who knows. But then, a few hours later someone started another thread on the same exact topic.

    I’ve wondered about the motivation behind doing something like that, starting another thread for that purpose. I mean, it was obvious the previous thread was closed and why it was closed. Someone later mentioned to me that they think it was even done deliberately, so that these same folks could have another place to pick up where they left off. Whatever it was, to start another similar thread….it was a dick move.

    So who started (and kept adding fuel to) this thread? Yep, you guessed it….. Jenee.

    What was that someone was saying about her being a catalyst?......

    ------------

    Now, I have the strength of mind to reject this nonsense….even if I am a sensitive water-sign person…..so I left TBBS. One would think that would have been the end of it.

    A few weeks after I start posting here at WF, however, I’m informed that someone is now copying and pasting my posts here at WF to TBBS. It doesn’t matter that I’ve left TBBS I guess, the bothering continues.

    So I send a PM to said person. See below, and look at the date.

    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    Fast forward now to Spring 2009. Jenee now wages repwar against me. Here’s more proof of just how that happened, and corroborates my earlier statement.

    [​IMG]


    As I said earlier, it was all out rep war and I was being hit by several people for a day or two (whereas I was by myself because I don’t say very much). The same TNZ people mind you, even though I hadn’t been on TBBS in months.

    Finally, some people here saw what was happening and helped me out. Soon, they beat back the aggressors, and it became, as Tamar calls it, only a “rep skirmish.”

    One has to wonder though, if it weren’t for them, what would have happened. The threats were certainly made – “you’ll leave here crying, we will drive you off. We will finish what we started back at TBBS.”

    There have been a few instances like this, with a few different TNZers, since I arrived at Wordforge, and again it doesn't have anything to do with rep so much as just the not desired attention!

    Now, mind you, I haven’t been a member of TBBS in three years. July 2008. That’s another thing the TNZers, especially Jenee and Ten Lubak, like to lie about – that I still lurk at TBBS. I don’t. I have been on TBBS for all of about 30 minutes in the last 3 years. Don’t believe me? Wordforge has every single of my IP addresses for the last 3 years. If people want, they can compare IPs (for only this purpose of seeing whether I have been at TBBS) and see who is correct, me or Jenee. They’ll probably still make stuff up, anyway.

    _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

    I guess I just have to wonder now….where and when is it gonna stop? I don’t post at TBBS, I don’t talk about TBBS, I don’t do anything whatsoever related to anything from then, and yet still people Jenee, Ten Lubak, and others involve themselves with me.

    At some point I wish these folks would just realize that some things can’t be fixed, and things are the way they are. These folks from TNZ……I don’t know how to get it across that we will never be ok, no matter how much time passes. The best we can do is just coexist and try not to run into one another on this forum.

    Further, the idea that we now have some sort of rapport, and you can green rep me, or talk to me like you didn’t tell me to kill myself several times, is insulting. That’s what I meant when I said….I don’t care about the insults, the negrep, the attacks. That’s because that’s what these so called "liberals" are. I already know that, they've already shown that.

    But to try and be nice to me now and pretend like none of that happened? FUCK THAT. I don’t need or want that from any of you.

    Do you really think this about rep from 2 years ago?

    - Also, Tamar, I’m not asking you, or Lanz, or O2C, or Paladin, or Clyde, or Bailey to do a single thing. I’m not asking you to censor anyone, talk to anyone, reprimand anyone…anything. Don’t worry, I’m not trying to change the little set-up you all have here at the Red Room.

    But just as others are free here to say what they want, I thought I was just as free to say, maybe convince them, that “I’d prefer it if you still keep away from me.”

    So if it’s all right everyone, maybe every time any of these folks try something with me, I will simple repeat the same refrain I’ve had for three years now…."I’d prefer it if you still keep away from me.”

    If it bothers you that I request to be left alone, put me on ignore. :shrug:

    What a horribly misleading term. Liberal... there is absolutely nothing liberal about today's Democratic Party. Unless you classify their horrible mismanagement of our tax dollars as liberal. :lol:

    A few years ago, I wouldn't have agreed with you Scorp, but when I saw the kind of hate they are capable of when the filters of society are taken away, it was truly astonishing.

    I may have many faults, but one thing I am not is pointlessly cruel and hateful. I just don't want anything to do with people like that, least of all their fake politeness.

    To them I say, just go away, like I did.
