I dont know what happened but I can tell you the GB can be a death trap on here.

Many good posters have expressed similar experiences in regards to the GB.


It was actually he Current Events forum. From what I now gather, there's not much of a difference in terms of what is considered tolerable conduct.

BKlutch FTW.

My man! How did you retrieve them? I checked a few of my old posts and there were no avies. You are a resourceful dude, BKlutch. Thanks.

For you Wingo, it's easy. You're very welcome.

I just went to the Wayback Machine, where they store old copies of our board (and the rest of the internet, too). Looked up a topic I knew you'd have posted on, and looked through posts for your hypnotic Phil-eyes. Pasted the URL into my posting, and voila!

You should download a copy to your disk for safe keeping, then upload it to a website where you can store Avi's. (Photobucket is good and it's free.) I PM'ed you with the URL.

Good to know...I guess Current Affairs can be added to the list along with the GB, the PC board, and especially the Trade board (mods there micro manage everything big time) of boards to visit/post in moderation. Every time I leave this board it's a 50/50 shot at getting a warning lol.

With a trade thread, FA thread, game thread, post season thread, political thread, bootie thread, etc...there's no reason to leave here.

Ok. You deserve to know.

Caveat: I'm not trying to restart a debate on BLM and police shootings

I went over onto the Current Events forum, which I'm apt to do every once in a while. There was a thread on all the shootings (black men and police) and I tried - perhaps in artfully - to make the point that the shootings against police should maybe not be unexpected. This is a point that has been made on TV talk shows like Bill Maher's and others. I was surely not the first. Then I quoted the Bible and wrote "you reap what you sow." They, IMO, misinterpreted that remark as "condoning killing" which I was not. My post was deleted and I was PM'd with an explanation and a warning. And, of course, I just can't let anything go, so I responded to the mod who deleted my comment and I said words to the effect of "Kind sir. I must take issue with your misplaced insinuation that I was condoning the killing of anyone." There were some other words sprinkled in for flavor and yada, yada, yada. I went for "warning" to "banned."

Be careful out there! I plan on staying close to home from now one. lol


I was warned once and haven't posted there since. I believe that board is where blueseats met his demise. Be careful out there.

Yeah, Wonder why? Possible youtube has had an affect on this. Youtube has really changed the game quite a bit. I mean MTV, VH1 and even parts of BET is unwatchable now.

They're also being lazy at times and using existing chart toppers instead of building the song from scratch around the movie, like they used to

Remember all those great Disney scores in the 90's?!

You were banned because you are Albanian, which to be honest is an experience every Albanian should go through. Now go bake me something, that is all you guys are good for.
