Blake could still post, as a member, and he'd be in charge of the beans.

He's made a mess of things around here, and he has to be kicked upstairs and away from the Power Buttons.

Well, truth is I didn't expect overwhelming support.

I could have done so much.

You can be THE custodian, as far as I'm concerned.
When you've finished mopping and waxing the hallway, see what you can do with those bad ballasts in room 107 - the flickering is making it hard to read.

PS - NO more fish sandwiches in the break room - you're leaving an undesireable smellishness.

"He's made a mess of things around here"

Please advise on the specifics of that. meaning what specifically was done to make a mess of the place? Expressing my own opinion in opposition to that of a sponsor? That really does get to the heart of the matter. Out one side of the mouth I hear that I don't do enough to honor and protect a sponsor, then out the other side of the mouth I hear that I too rigorously cater to sponsors. Which is it I wonder? I guess it depends on what one's specific motives are at the time. I try very diligently to be consistent with my motives. That is guaranteed to off folks on both sides of the issue, which I seem to have done very well. Not sure any one policy concerning board sponsorship would be able to avoid that kind of scenario. If you know one, one that will also continue to support the onging existance and maintenance of the place, I'd love to hear it.

I'd appreciate any thoughtful counsel on how we can improve the place, whether by taking actions previously untaken or ceasing behavior that is problematic.

You are a successful entrepreneur, put together a business plan for the optimum success of BadWeB and let's hear it. Just claiming you can do it ain't good enough, though I'm sure you would do just fine too.

And for the record, I like Busas. I just like my Cyclone better.

YOu want to make the place better, Blake?
1) Stay away from the grill

3) Stay away from the grill

Blake, I don't have any glib answers to your questions, and I'm tired sick of the same old rhetoric, but if you're serious, then I'm serious and will give it some consructive thought.

If it's just going to turn into a pissing match, I don't want to play.

If you are serious about soliciting my input please email me with the format for this to happen. Public or private, or whatever.

Blake is grilling food products derived from red meat. These food products, while high in cholestoral are also meaningful and bring joy to children everywhere. Old men, that's a different story.

Me, I'm a toast man.

Blake, how about a public discussion regarding a half dozen rule changes?

All final decisions yours.

If you agree I'll post a list and outline how the discussion should be structured.

Your call.

Um this may be sticking my oar in where it's not wanted but here goes.
Snail & Blake you obviously know each other fairly well, might I suggest one of you picks up the phone & dials the other for a friendly chat, things may be resolved a lot quicker & more amicably that way.
If it's a question of pride over who calls first, I'll gladly mediate, hell I'll even reimburse you the cost of the call next time I'm in the US (payable in alcohol at the bar of my choosing)

There, said my piece, I'll butt out now.

I've one problem with anyone from Sacborg moderating BadWeB. They'd have to be considered partly on their performance as participants over there.

I'm not sure Snail would make the grade in this case.

He also seemed to have a problem with understanding my posting, to his dislike, in a recent thread he started.

Consequently, what kind of custard pie would he make without the ability to see both sides of the coin?

Those issues aside, my gut instinct tells me it would only be a matter of time before it ended in tears anyway.

Name one.

Snail; I can certainly vouch for you as a person of integrity. I really enjoyed meeting you at Bonneville and still think of our great "meaning of life" discussion over mexican food. And as proof you're not afraid of digging in to get the job done I present ... : )



Of course, in the eyes of some, my opinion may not count for much if anything at all.

That wasn't my point Snail.

Sincerely, I don't doubt for a moment you are a great guy. Lacking in judgement sometimes perhaps, lol. Sadly though, I don't get the impression, especially after some stuff you've said on Sacborg addressed toward moi, that the feeling is reciprocated, sadly.

Sean,
You are out of line. Please, no more personal commentary. Please! That goes for everyone. If anyone really feels the need to criticize others here, they should start a thread on the Quick Board specifically for that purpose. I am so sick and tired of all the consternation, indignation, and divisiveness; yeah I'm guilty of it too to some degree. It is difficult when I see folks lying about my own views and statements. Best I avoid the places where such behavior runs rampant.

Paul,

Have at it. I'll start a new subtopic just for you in the "Suggestions" topic. Please create a new thread for each of your individual suggestions/points; I think that will help keep the discussion going most productively.

I still think talking on the phone might be a good idea too. As I've said before, be careful who you listen to amigo.

how many times does one member have to be told he's out of line, asked not to attack others, requested not to deride the people of badweb, etc., before he gets what the forum rules tell us that a repeat offender
gets?
i've had my account suspended, politely, because i broke the rules and behaved like a moron.
i 'signed' the virtual agreement stating thati wouldn't repeat the attacks.
i screwed up, and accepted it, as i should.
now we've got a repeat offender who simply won't stop, who seems well above the forum rules.
what will it take?
