X-Static BBS referred to by nostatic

I just wanna know why you got booted off after two posts. The suspense is killing me!

I tried reading the BBS, and its rules, but gave up because I could feel myself developing the urge to gouge out my eyes - well before I had understood a single sentence.

The Cliff Notes are: The people who post to that BBS are unusually pompous and self important. Through a combination of jargon and big words, I actually couldn't figure out even a mere inkling of what they were on about. 90%+ of the posts come from 4 people.

I "know" Levon from other music boards. He and I have seen eye to eye on a few things, but after some time off of one of the boards (OSX Audio), I come to find a heated set of thread where Levon is accusing the guy who started OSXAudio of being financed/setup by Apple, and the whole site is a corporate financed ruse to trick people into buying Logic (an Apple product). At some point Levon got his own corner of a BBS and setup shop. If you read that thread (I think it was the right one..I can't browse it from home any more) you can read his insane ramblings. My first post was to say something along the lines of "who cares" and he came after me with avengence, and erased part of my original post (a no-no imho...I was not abuvise or vulgar). I then posted a follow up saying that small people and big bullys are the only ones that react like that. Boom, I'm not only banned, but my IP address is blocked so I can't even *read* the board. Totally insane.

I tried to read some of the post and other parts of that forum. It gave me a splitting headache that comes back whenever I even think about it.

AAARRRRRRGGGGHHHH!!!

That guy needs a serious pimp-slapping in front of a large audience.
