@Borderline769: You've probably discovered this already, but if not the "inverse ninja rule" states that the more ninjas you employ to the task, the less effective each individual ninja within the group becomes. Look at every ninja movie you've probably ever seen. One ninja on a mission causes incredible devestation. A whole bunch are basically worthless. I don't understand it myself, but ever Cannon film staring Michael Dudikof supports this premise, so who am I to argue?

@JohnKeefer: Thank you for the response.

@66rekrul: Yep. I'm done. Well it was a good deal for Crispy. I feel for the guy following up on this. It would have been nice to have gotten some clarification on what happened from anybody involved but apparently that's not going to happen. Peace be with you all.

@66rekrul: I'm glad you said it. It was either that or a skaa band reference.

Well, JFlRDL hasn't replied to my last posting, which could indicate he hasn't been able, willing or had time to post a reply. I'm going to give it about 48 hours from now, and if he hasn't replied by that point I'm going to assume he has no objections to my proposal. If anyone has any counter-proposals to address the issue I would be open to suggestion. As far as a future flame war is considered, earthmate is quite right in not wanting to deal with one. There are some that consider those types of situations amusing, and if there were rules to that effect here, I'd be more than willing to throw down for as long as it takes. The point of the matter, though, is this is Crispy Gamer's house, and their rules on this subject are quite clear. While I consider JFlRDL to be the more flagrant violater in this issue, nobody else should have to deal with the exchange he initiated and I allowed to perpetuate.

@jflrdl: Well lets see what we've got. You offered an olive branch (of sorts), "we toast you as an opponent" blah blah.....ah, then the backhand, take some of my posts from the begining of April, ignore the context of everything since that point (including revelations about Scott's previous gaps in posting and your behind the scenes mechanations as Newb) and then......what? "We win?" What are you, a multiple personality? Dude you have got to learn some patience. You should have either waited for me to accept the hand you profered (either to smack me down instantly after) or waited for me to come out and attack you. Now you just look like a twit. As far as everybody laughing at me is concerned, haven't seen much of it yet (and can't really hear it anyway). I have to admit, the paste and click was a clever if lazy way to proceed. At least you didn't go for a third round of "homo" attacks. Let's be clear on something. You spent the last three months as Newb to damage somebody else's image, and even more stupidly came out to take credit for it. I bought into it to the point where I thought Newb was Scott, or at the very least a misguided fanboy. While I stand by every post I've made, I also stand by the fact that opinions and ideas can change. I've obviously made some adjustments in mine. If that makes me the jilted fanboy, I'll accept the judgement of my peers here. So here's what I propose. Failcraft managed to get banned for less than what you did, but I'll take some credit for being "suckered". So how about it. Public vote, you're banned (both as jflrdl.....what the hell does that mean anyway....and as newb) I'm banned (and unlike you, Dougprime is all I go by anywhere) or we're both banned. You agree, I'll e-mail crispy gamer personally. I understand for you it won't mean much, you'll likely just create another identity. Me, I'll honor it. Stand and Deliver.

@jflrdl: And now you're sucking up to Scott after months of pretending to be someone else to drag him down? Dude I will give you credit for this, when Gawd was handing out the weasel gene he robbed about 100 of them and gave it all to you. You're not a theatrical agent by any chance are you? His predicted response? "I got you, you gay fan boy!" Well, I could do this all night, but I actually have to move on to other matter's, and jflop could use some time to develop some more material since he's "come out of the closet" so to speak (sorry, couldn't resist).

Boy am I glad my last post got swallowed by this excruciating interface. @jflrdl: I was about to mention that two posts went by since you're big reveal, and all you were able to do was call me a "homo" twice. But now a shot at my mom? Sonny boy, you're out in the open now. You've got to be more than a one trick pony. I'll be waiting out here in left field if you think you can hit something I can't field. You know, I thought you were going to actually be entertaining. Quite frankly you're overcompensating. You've "taken" me, you've "had" me, and now my mommy doesn't love me? Boo hoo. Sounds like somebody isn't getting nearly enough love, and I know I'm not the candidate. You should've headed for cover when you had the chance. Now you have to make do with what little mother nature gave you on top and bottom.

@jflrdl: Oh look, here's the "mini-mind" behind it all. Thankfully this just means we won't be hearing from "newb" anymore. Doesn't change that Scott hasn't posted or even peaked at the boards because he could have cleared this up in one post, and either didn't know or care. You, on the other hand, bright boy, could have just stayed quiet and no one would have ever known for sure, but since you were so intent in "having me" (an interesting choice of words based on the whole "homos" comment) you let the cat out of the bag and confirmed your place on the whole "constructive, flamer, troll, dick" scale of things. Points for carrying it out as long as you did, but d- for final execution. By the by, since its now obvious you have a preference for sock puppets, unless of course you are a completely incapable of coming out of the shadows to answer one question, I'd like to ask you something. Are you Failcraft? If so your grammer and punctuation have improved nicely. I'm also more than happy to have learned the truth. I did indeed have my doubts. You could have kept that going forever, and while its obvious your reveal was not intended to do me or anybody else any favor, you did all of us just that. Special props to Mr. Mighty, by the by. He called it just right.

@PinkyB: I tried to reply to you last night, but this furshugglin posting box ate all 2000 characters. I'll keep this one short. Look at my post on 04/01/09. So you are correct that this has been all said before, and probably been said better for that matter. The fact that you have nothing original to add to the conversation doesn't help. Tell me Scott is on the Rainbow Warrior defending the whales. Tell me he is defending the universe from alien space beagles. Since we are all aware that "Scott is not our bitch" and that argument has now been done to death (and you have not been around for the ride for the last TWO friggin months)save us the "let's ask how we can help Scott" fanboy brown nosing. We are helping Scott by keeping this forum alive. He owes us nothing, and while we are indeed paying nothing, we owe Scott nothing at the more than two month mark. You'll note that I have previously been the advocate of patience. More than two months later, no response from Scott other than sock puppet crap, no response from Crispy Gamer despite a request for info, and now a truly excruciating posting interface with no more than a "sorry we suck" I am now on empty when it comes to patience.
