There is this side there is that side and then there is the truth.
Truth is constant and never changes.

You are very much correct in that truth has very little to do with what he thinks. Everybody saw what happened. It's not like it was behind the scenes. Anyone who denies he broke the rules and then argued with a mod over it and said he didn't break the rules is just as delusional as he is. There are some things that are true even when you deny them.

But honestly, didn't PBJ "break the rules" by substantially altering Richard's quote? Funny how this all could have been avoided had PBJ just corrected his mistake, and apologized.
Unless it's Lily's truth, and then it's GOD'S truth...and she is always right.
So you cant talk about this without making it personal. I am not surprised.
I am not always right.
But when the truth is there is black and white, or whatever color font you have, and you refuse to see it, well that doesn't make it not true. It makes you blind.

And all this arguing over something that happened on a board that is gone and it cant be brought back out to see it.
Richard was banned for arguing with a mod. For blatantly and maliciously arguing with a mod.
That is what got him banned. Nothing else.
He cant seem to own that. And that is where he is blind and needs to grow up.

Again, truth is subjective. I may believe truth to be one thing, and you another.
No. You may believe the truth says the world is flat. But the truth is, it is not.
Even if it is the only truth you know. it still isn't the absolute truth.
Absolute truth is just that. Absolute.

How about this for the truth? He was warned. By a mod. Whether fair, unfair, just, unjust or anything else when you are told by a mod to stop doing a certain thing you stop. Or else. It is that simple. It IS that black and white. And THAT applies to everyone.

That's not even what he was banned for! He was banned for calling Husker a moron, was warned not to do it, and said that since Husker WAS a moron, that wasn't name calling.
Nothing to do with PBJ.

That was not the incident that resulted in Richard's final ban.
I will also note that what you are talking about is not a "rule" and never has been. It is, however, very bad board etiquette. And the funny thing is, the reason it was such a big deal is because Richard had done it to ME, and I got pissed off and tore him a new one - he did not, however, get warned or banned. But, most people did agree that it was in very poor form. So, when PB did it to him, he went off. And I actually understood why he was pissed off since I had gotten so pissed off about the same thing - but he crossed the line and would not let it go - which is classic Richard. That was PB's deal and PB's board and I did not and will not question his decision on it.

There was NOTHING "malicious" about it. He felt he was right.
flan
flan, he was TOLD to stop. Not only did he NOT stop but continued on and argued with the mod. They are mods for a reason. If you don't like how a board is run, don't join. But you can't come on and argue with the mods. I don't know a board around where you can call out a mod. What he "felt" and what happened are two different things. He broke the rules. End of story. It's too bad he doesn't feel he did because he CLEARLY did. And arguing about a message board two years later? Really? So petty.

It's that steel trap mind I have. I can actually picture the thread in my head. And that is EXACTLY what happened...

Quick, LL do a temp ban!

<------------------------that face is not pouting. But my ban was oh so unfair!! I'm over it now. What is is and what was was. I let people get to me. I let idiots get to me. Shouldn't have done that.

I was under the influence of narcotics at the time. Walking anywhere wasn't a possibility.

It's the truth! A Norco and fifty mgs of Phenergan and I am surprised I could still type. But no, walking wasn't in the picture.

Phenergan will make me sicker if I don't take enough of it. I usually get it and Zofran together.
I have Tramadol. It doesn't work as well as it use to. But it still helps.
Lortabs don't really do anything for me.

I'm telling you , we were separated at birth...You should post a picture in the breakroom. Because I actually have you pictured looking very much like me...

I don't have a recent picture but I don't really look much like you. I would say the closest celebrity look alike me would be Tina Fey with her glasses on.
One big difference is I would never cut my hair short like you did. I have a total fit if my hairdresser cuts too much off. It is about to my waist now but I badly need a trim.
