RE: Come on Matrix...Promote your games
I am really starting to p**s in my pants I am so scared.
Why are you scared? I didn't threaten u I just said ur an azzhole. The feelings prolly mutual and thats ok. No need to defecate in ur pants.
We do not need your or anyone else view on another forum member.
Sure you do. My opinions are priceless. If you ban me though, make sure I can still log into the matrix store [8D]

And now its time for rate the thread...
using your best judgment base your opinion by utilizing the chart below taking into account that a type 5 thread is the best kind to have on a daily basis, whereas Type 1 is very disjointed hard to follow and dose not make much sense to the average reader, and of course the type 7 where a thread has been blown out (so to say[;)])of all redemption and has become quite a mess.
I think we are currently type 3 but rapidly approaching type 6...

Terminus you step over the line once to many.... enjoy your one week ban.
David
?
Apparently someone forgot to inform Terminus:
Brilliant! Sometimes I think that the whole bunch of them are sitting next to each other in the same 3rd grade class and posting.
Doesnt sound like a terribly good reason to get into a pi**ing contest with a bunch of retards.
I had to scroll back a page or two on that thread to find what I was banned for... Forgotten all about it myself...
David H. already admitted to deleting "her" posts by mistake. He has apologized and extended an open invitation for "her" to come back; instead, a person identifying himself as "her husband" appears and says she won't. Very interesting.
Yep... I heard the sounds of struggle, and wanted to see if any of the Steakhouse Morons were stupid enough to provoke David Heath (for he was there) into banning them...

I got to admit I'm sort of confused, too.
Terminus and his merry band of trolls are celebrating their victory over the rest of us morons. According to terminus, the only person to have done anything wrong here, besides us morons, is David Heath himself.
So not only is Lisa still a transvestite., but her husband is also a fraud, and the unproked slandering goes on and on and on.
Perhaps someone should warn me again. I'm obviously in the wrong here for daring to interupt the intellectual discussions.[8|]
RE: Come on Matrix...Promote your games
The War in the Pacific forum. That's about Terminus and his friends calling everyone else retards and transvestites, right? The title is a bit misleading. Perhaps someone should change it.

WitP has turned into Whining Immature Terminus Postings.
I see he is doing the same thing that got him in trouble. Posting completely off-topic in a rude fashion about other posters on this board.
When will he start debating suicide since this board and his self-perceived primacy on it is all he has? I'm checking the odds right now.

Guys
I really mean it..... DROP IT[:@]
I had not correctly Banned those I said I did. Well now that I am back I have.
Terminus - Banned 7 days
UndercoverNotChickenSalad - Banned 30 days
I do not want to see not even one more post about this or any other she said he said post. I really don't banned people but you all got me in the mood to do so everyone better understand they are on a short rope.

RE: Come on Matrix...Promote your games
Just an update...
Doggie's been banned.
Now our polite friend (and supposedly banned) Terminus can go have that circle jerk in the WitP forums he's been yearning for.
I'm still not sure who gets to be the pivot man when there's only two but I'm guessing Ursa and Term will figure it out. Rock, paper, scissors perhaps?

Well im kind of talking for lisa here,And she says that she still cannot log in on either one of her accounts.
Otherwise she would be here defending herself.
But i doubt she will ever come back here permanently after the way she was treated.
So well done on that front.
frgpugs
First let me say I am sorry for the way your wife was treated here. It was a misunderstanding as you can read from above. Since she didn't reply I figured she had had enough and just left. This is NOT what Matrix is about but sometimes things like can happen. Please feel free to private message me and I will fix here account or better still just have her make a new account and let me know what it is.
David
Thankyou iam rather dissapointed at the welcome she recieved since all she did was introduce herself.
I will be pm'ing you as i think it is unfair that she be banned.
Thanks for your time David.
RE: Come on Matrix...Promote your games
I was banned or something for a while. I got the "this account has been banned" error message went I went to my PM inbox. I am obviously not banned now. It could just be a software glitch. or an error on my part. I really don't know what happened. I was on line and the forum locked me out in the when I responded to a pop up about a private message.. After a half hour or so I was able to sign back in.
I have had a cordial relationship with Mister Heath for several years and I do not believe he would just boot me without an explanation.

RE: Come on Matrix...Promote your games
I think it's important to review a few facts about what happened, since there seems to be so much false information floating around.
I don't know where the idea started that I'm partisan, but some of the Steakhouse folks now seem to take this as given and it seems to be based on something other than reality. I think people that have been on this forum for a long time know that it's not true. If I've shown any preference for a particular user, it's been subconscious. I'm still human and folks I know and who have been here for a while may tend to get some benefit of the doubt vs. those I don't know.
Also, always apply Occam's Razor - I am NOT a full-time mod. We have NO full-time mods. I occasionally check in on threads, don't always have time to read every page or post in detail and so I sometimes make mistakes. That's the way it works, there's nothing productive in getting worked up about it and concocting conspiracy theories. Doggie, your comments in particular about me were simply wrong and baseless.
We rarely ever ban people. Anyone who's been here for a while knows that too, so being upset that someone has not been banned is a pretty pointless sport. Far more often, we take it to PMs and issue warnings. For the vast majority of people, that suffices. If warnings are ignored, even our patience has limits and then those rare bans happen.
Dave did the bans wrong earlier, which shows you how often we have to do them. We set them right now, so those that were supposed to be banned are in fact banned.
When it comes to the thread where Lisa introduced herself, I completely agree with those that say it was an extremely poor welcome she received. I was dismayed at the time and posted as much. I'm still very disappointed in some of the users here who responded to her, but I'm glad that others extended a warm welcome amidst the idiocy. Yes, primarily that was due to Terminus' comments. However, several other folks jumped on board as well. As I explained to her at the time via PM, the timing was incredibly bad. Marky had been causing some problems in the WITP forum and was high on our attention list before she showed up. Terminus assumed she was a Marky-alt, posted as much, others joined in and there we went.
On top of that, some PMs were sent to other mods stating that she was an alt account. While I was trying to calm people down and refute the alt claim and confirming her identity, the other mods (Dave and Alex) deleted the thread and banned that account based on those PMs. That only made the confusion worse. I spoke with the other mods, the account was then unbanned. In the meantime, she'd made a second account. I posted to her to explain what had happened and she posted a second hello thread. This then once again devolved into a flame-fest, which ended with some comments towards another user that were vile enough that the thread was asked to be deleted and was.
I'm really disappointed in how much extra time we've had to spend baby-sitting the general discussion forum instead of working on our games, largely because a bunch of adults can't figure out how to get along without escalating to personal attacks. You're all gamers, folks. You've got something in common. Keep the politics and other divisive stuff elsewhere. If someone gets a little testy, let it go instead of escalating it, maybe they had a bad day. If someone is repeatedly nasty, let us know.
Allright, that's my vent for today, hope you all had a nice weekend otherwise.
Regards,
- Erik

RE: Come on Matrix...Promote your games
One additional note - I personally checked both of Lisa's accounts earlier today. Neither is banned nor has been since that original brief mistaken ban on the first day she showed up. I have no idea why she can't login and post, but send a PM to Dave and we can reset her password if she's forgotten it.

Iam talking on behalf of Lisa right now.
She says that she did get a pm but was still getting the banned error message up.
She is going to try and log in and if not will wait on Dave for a reply to the pm i sent him tonight.
Thanks
