Re: Us VS Them
Hold on! Red bug is Byron Merritt?! No!
Redbug is someone else
Although I would like to ask him to ask the moron over there to either delete my account or reactivate it. Maybe he'll listen to you Red and you know I've tried to treat everyone with respect. Which is much more than ahole over there does

Umm... I think you have me confused with someone else....D Pope wrote:Well, how about it Red bug? You stand accused of fraud and being a jerk.

They still have access to their accounts. (I only know of two or three that have been banned from here with legitimate reasons and after several warnings.
Byron on the other hand has many that he has banned but not removed their names from the membership lists. It is those numbers that I have a problem with. I keep bringing up StarGazer because that was my account and feel like I have a right to talk about her. I did nothing wrong over there and received no warnings, yet my user name is still listed as a member, boosting his numbers. If he's not going to allow access to those accounts then he should remove them.
True I don't see why someone would register on a board and not post but it's not Freak is fluffing his numbers by leaving them on the list. There are members. Members who don't post, but still members just the same.
Those who have been freakbanned over there are not members any more. They had no choice (except for those who intentionally got banned)

I will give you my two cents worth, though...

I think that you should only consider expunging accounts that have not actively logged on in 6 months or longer. I would start by sending out a warning email, asking that they log in by a specific date to keep their account, and then delete the accounts that don't reply or that are not attached to a valid email account.
You won't loose the interested lurkers, and you will have a better idea of your real user base....

Redbugpest, I apologise for having mistaken your identity. I'm very sorry for accusing you of actions committed by another, my mistake is indefensible.
Leto II is gone for good, except for OM. The "pearl" was just that; a miniscule portion of what Leto was, and not a compressed version of the whole. The pearl that the worms have do not make them Leto, or in any way similar to him.

Not a fail, porkfuck, since I included that possibility. It's just true by default. You DID register there and DO have an account.

Merritt's username here is SpiceGrandson - he gave up along time ago ...
for awhile, it was clear he was lurking and monitoring here; I think he's given
that up, too, given some of the things that've been said right out in the open
that should have caused some reaction .... maybe there's just too much traffic
here for him to read all the posts, and he gave up ... I think Hyppo was looking
in the front window for awhile, taking notes and passing reports on to him, but
I figure he doesn't listen to her anymore than anyone else does ... I've always
hoped there was a dedicate pretard lurking here and copypasta'ing every time
I posted a "Byron Merritt is a fat, low-grade moron, an asshat, a shitheel,
fucktard phony, and his feet stink" but I think that's hoping for too much ...
no, Byron Merritt is too much of a pussy to post here ...

Re: Us VS Them
Redbugpest, you're so reluctant to post any evidence that KJA is as good a writer as you say he is, so I have to assume you're a shill, and therefore a fraud and a jerk. So, you stand accused of being a fraud and a jerk and a porky hamwallet with no real passion or taste in literature. How do you respond? Surprise me.

Since his being a good or poor writer is subjective to the opinion of the person reading, there is no way that I am aware of to prove or disprove it to you. The only real facts as to his writing lay in the number of books published, and his ability to support himself entirely as a writer. That would lead someone to believe that he has a fair amount of popularity. Of course, these facts cannot be used to satisfy the Good / Bad component you refer to above.
I think it is narrow minded of you to claim that I have no passion or taste in literature simply because I like some of the stuff that KJA has published. I have very eclectic tastes when it comes to books, movies and music. Reading Kafka's Metamorphosis or Koestler's Darkness at Noon is a completely different experience from Mitchner's Space, or Tolkien,s Hobbit or Adam's Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I read for enjoyment, and tend to re-read the books I like the best over and over and over... What i do not do is browbeat anyone who may not agree with my views on a book.

No, you quite clearly made the claim because you felt I was not adequately proving something that is patently unprovable because it is based on personal opinion - not because of my association with the KJASF (which would imply a certain level of passion).merkin muffley wrote:Redbugpest, you're so reluctant to post any evidence that KJA is as good a writer as you say he is, so I have to assume you're a shill, and therefore a fraud and a jerk.

BTW, I am not the one posting inflammatory, extraneous, or off topic messages... (other than to Chiggie) this go round.
so the Troll label may not be accurate either...
