wesbed Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 It was a beautiful day here in Michigan. Arizona was better. Nanny, nanny...
catesta Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 It was a beautiful day here in Michigan. Arizona was better. Nanny, nanny... Oh sure, if you go for all that sunshine and warm temperature bullshit.
The Red Menace Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 Actually, if I was gonna zip someone from a board, I'd just zip 'em...no need to go public and set in motion a first class melee. Someone threatens people....ya just flip the switch and miraculously, they just never post again. These untidy cyber liquidations are so............soooooo Red Menace-like. B-) You will please, comrade, to remember the glorious Lubyanka. None of this messy public spectacle of which you speak... simply a glorious subterranean confession and re-education followed by a swift bullet to the back of the head. Oh my, those were the days!!! B-) These fair-minded democratic affairs and hashings-out are so... wearying. Hard to believe you Joes had enough gas left to beat us in the Cold War!!!
wesbed Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 It was a beautiful day here in Michigan. Arizona was better. Nanny, nanny... Oh sure, if you go for all that sunshine and warm temperature bullshit. Hot weather, spicy Mexican food, and cold beer.
Alexander Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 Back on the old Blue Note BB, I opposed Aric's banishment and agitated for his reinstatement. Not this time! His behavior is completely out of line. Insults are one thing. Threats are quite another...
Jazz Kat Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 I missed it all. Oh well goodbye ARIC, whatever you did.
Mark J Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 How did I miss all this action??? This is giving me bad flashbacks - the Aric bannings at the old BNBB, his begging to reform, his eventual return, and all falling apart again into the usual insanity. For all those who weren't there, Aric will undoubtably beg to return and say he is reformed. I fell for this before and it's a temporary respite until he is back to pissing off everyone. I didn't realize that Maltz and DEEP have been banned here. DEEP is a good guy but he often goes insane, in an Aric kind of way, so it's probably best he's not here. Maltz has always been a nutjob and it's nice not having to deal with him. SS-1/Jeff - I'm shocked it took so long for you guys to fiinally have it out - this is an ancient fight!!!!!
RDK Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 Weizen, the minute you leave the politics forum you start talking nothing but common sense. Who woulda thunk it? Actually, I find that true for most of the cats here... of all persuassions...
Jazzmoose Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 True ..very true We could always start a rude word contest to see how long til he shuts it down. My go first Bellybutton semprini.
Jazzmoose Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 God, I can't believe I read this shit. I also can't believe people begging for Aric to come back. I'll save my begging for Deus, Hans, King Ubu (geez...I spent the last twenty minutes trying to figure out who this 'flurin' cat was!) and a few others who seem to be missing. I'm not saying I'm achingly delighted and overjoyed that Aric has been banned; no, I'll save those emotions for when Che gets banned.
cannonball-addict Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 Ok. i just spent maybe an hour completely reading this thread. I could care less about what happened five years ago between these two guys. I think the ariceffron posts were funny (in fact I have usually steered clear of reading anything he writes because I often read the board in places where I'm supposed to be quiet like the library) but that's all they were. And brownie, there are too many people contributing stuff of real worth here for you to quit the board to support a mentally insane person like Aric. I resent what you said a while back on this post along the lines of: "He really brought life to this board." It seems to me that he didn't intend to bring life to the board, he intended to bring death. Even if these threats were in jest, the guy was off his rocker and it was getting ugly. Imagine if someone on this board threatened you! I felt terrible when people accused me of not being a good listener when I wrote off Bobby Hutcherson. Imagine how I would have felt if a guy repeatedly threatened to kill me and my family with cancer!
cannonball-addict Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 NO LOCKING! How can you think yourself entitled to post but deny others the same, including people who may want to respond to the latest rounds, and others who will come along later? Rather than NO locking, I would argue for the very limited use of locking. I think Jim and his bro do a great job with this currently, only locking threads when absolutely necessary. Most moderators would delete threads like this, long before they got out of control. Jim lets us hash things out a bit (sometimes quite a bit), and then every once in a blue moon - he decides it's best to close down a thread. I think this is the best way to handle things, and is very healthy for the board, in the long run. (And not deleting the thread gives everyone an opportunity to see what went down, after the fact -- so if you miss stuff in real-time, you don't miss stuff.) You guys forget that Jim is not just this dude who runs a bboard. He is also a practicing musician trying to get better, get gigs, and get some of you freeloaders to buy his damn CD!!!
EKE BBB Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 OK Jim decided to ban Aric and, despite what we may think, he had the right to do so. Deus, brownie and Hans decided to leave the board (at least for a while). Please let´s show some respect for their decissions. And let´s shut up our mouths and get back to JAZZ Cheers, AgustÃn
cannonball-addict Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 People. People. People. Use your PM button more often. PM button = more discussion of JAZZ.
AllenLowe Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 well, none of this would have happened if the board had taken my suggestion and provided a "reply" button that allows us to edit each other's posts -
Ron S Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 well, none of this would have happened if the board had taken [all] my . . . posts [and deleted them] You mean sorta like that?
AllenLowe Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 (edited) or: "you mean...Allen Lowe is the greatest thing that ever happened to Che, finally allowing him to see the error of his ways" - Edited March 18, 2005 by AllenLowe
Ron S Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 Allen Lowe is [grateful] to Che [for] finally allowing [Allen] to see the error of his ways Or even like THAT.
JSngry Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 "Chez Lowe is the greatest thing that ever happened to Allentown, finally allowing them to see the weight of their arrows". A 5 Star joint, then, I presume?
Joe G Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 or:Â "you see...allowing the error thing that ever happened to Lowe is ways, finally Allen to him mean the greatest of his Che" - I guess I just don't understand your point...
AllenLowe Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 this is finally starting to make sense to me -
