Glad to hear it.

Weird that you manage to be one of Jefe's usually hated mods yet seem to be well-liked here.

I'm impressed that you pull that off.

I'm not sure what you are talking about, I thought everyone loved me.

That's exactly what I'm saying. Despite the fact that you're a CB mod, people like you here.

I boardmailed Pete asking him if Wrubell as calling them gay.

Huh, I had no idea Reden and Wolfley were Rush fans.

"Poor, poor Pete. While a lot of people dislike mods, it seems your incompetence has given you legendary status.

Nothing worse than someone who is aggressive and bad at their job."

And he banned me for an additional 30 days. What a sad, sad little man.

Wow, such little self control. You just had to make it another week...

Since we're all talking about our favorite reasons for bans, my favorite came in the wake of one of Hoya's better orchestrated friday afternoon coups.

His idea - begin several threads pretending to be responding to posts by other well-known posters (MW, Archaea...)which weren't actually there and see who would take the bait. Of my 20 or so lifetime CB posts, probably half of them went into this effort. I believe someone named Vegas took the bait the hardest and was getting pretty ticked off that he couldn't see everyones posts.

My penalty - 14 days I believe.

The reason given - "Pretending to respond to a poster that wasn't there."

Not even worth an appeal, it was so ridiculous. But it made the afternoon much more tolerable.

I see. When I get banned, it's because I lack self-control.

But when you get banned, it's because Jefe is a fascist.

Got it.

Jefe is apparently an eskimo. And you apparently are the old grandmother whom he set afloat on a patch of ice.
