Wiill Tabs Be Banned From PPOT?
Recently I wrote a Thread entitled "CA is Queer Central" in response to the CA Supream Court's decsion on Gay marriage. Dan of Pasadena was outraged and said so in a post. To placate Dan I changed the title to "CA is Sodomy Central" Normy didn't like that and complained to Wayne that I was digusting and should be banned from the Board. Normy at least had the nuggets to tell me he complained. Wayne to his credit never said a thing to me, however he did close the "Sodomy Central" Thread.
I understyand very well Wayne doesn't want any grief from these Boards. Fast forward about a week. I wrote a piece entitled 'CA day of Reckoning." Which basically states Gawd is mad at CA and particularily mad because of it liberal gay stance and as such an earth quake, volcano and asteroid are going to wipe CA out as retribution. JYL didn't seem to see the humor in that proposition and neither did Wayne. Who PM'ed me stating that I "Annoyed him and if I keep it up I will be asked to leave." As such I ran a series of posts that were logical and rational in the extreme. One Thread seems to have disappeared in to the ethos entitled "Incongruity" In that Thread Moses posted that Wayne had his finger on the button to ban me. So far I am still here. I have been on this Board for 5 years and have received virtually NO WARNINGS of any kind. Neither of his moderators saw ANY PROBLEMS with what I have recently posted. Nostatus even asked a question in one of them checking out my real stance. I got a pass. One would think that my history on this Board is self evident and as such knowledge should have been aqquired as to my leading to a point of somekind in what I post. It can be imagined that a relationship of trust has been developed over the years. For my part that trust has been violated, and what I am left with is guile instead of being forth coming in my opinion. I simply don't like it, I lose and the reader loses as well.

If you persist in nipping at the hand that feeds you (or at least provides a forum to post on), yea. Then probably.
Wayne's "living room" standard seems sensible and simple. It's his place. If he's asked people to not do something and they persist in doing it or griping about it, I could see him well within his rights to show someone the door. So don't get banned tabs. This place wouldn't be the same without ya'.

..................What's your point? Are you challenging Wayne to ban you?
To your defense, I think a lot of people take this board way to seriously. |

I'd say those three should be higher on the "to ban" list than you, but I probably should be too

If you feel excessively constrained by what Wayne views as prudent moderation of his website, perhaps you should use a personal blog as your outlet...

If a bear *****s in the woods and no one is around to smell it, does it still stink?

Hey, I got a stick here. Lets go poke a bear!
Are you trying to become a martyr to promote your blog? I picture a Jerry McGuire esque scene, "who's coming with me?".

Tabs, you are just a lonely attention whore. You played this game over on the Early S Registry and finally got them to ban you. You came here and for 5 years have been disappointed in not being banned. You used to be good for a laugh, but this post just borders on pathetic.

Perhaps you should post an "I'm out of here" post. That guy got plenty of attention.

If a man speaks and a woman is not there is he still wrong?
I have never complained about anyone here... least of all about Tabs. However a certain gentleman has really gone off the deep end with his hate filled posts lately, unfortunately he was a guy who's post I used to enjoy reading. But I will just stay away from PPOT for a while and hope he cools down, my productivity at work will probably go way up.

I have always been an attention whore so what is new.
This is bothering me so I am dragging it out into the light of day to state my peace. If I wanted to be banned I sure would not wait 5 years to get around to it. Over a period of time I have dropped my guard and said more and more of what I think straight up. This puts me back on my guard and far less trusting.
