Why don't you losers get a life and discuss something worthwhile. All I see is a bunch of Nancy's bitching.

Flunk an Algebra test today, son?

You signed up....took the time to post.....and this is the best you could come up with? I think we know who the loser is.

[The Charlton Guy]

It's alright guys.
He has a point...there's not much I like better than bitching.#oldie#

But dude, why don't you either take up whatever gripe you have with me personally or just kick back and relax.

[Hoss]

Welcome to the Corral, Paratrooper!

I hope you enjoy visiting here and letting us know what is on your mind, but please keep it respectful.

Hoss

[The Charlton Guy]

That's alright Hoss, I'm the Rodney Dangerfield of the comic collecting world, didn't you know that?

[jaydeebee]

Stu, don't! :eek:

[DrWatson]

So, this is where CG hangs out.

Nice place...good people....if you give it a chance. Welcome to the Corral.

[The Charlton Guy]

So, this is where CG hangs out.

Hey Doc!

Make yourself at home.

Pull up a rock and chaw a while!

[stupidman]

Stu, don't! :eek:


Don't what?

[jaydeebee]

Looks like I've been banned at the CGC forum for my one and only message I ever posted there. Well, stuff happens I guess. I'm pretty sure I'm not going to lose any sleep over the situation. Funny thing is, the stuff I said wasn't really controversial, I guess this moderator over there really likes being able to cast a long shadow over the place. Come to think of it, I've always been told, "A small man will cast a long shadow at sunset." #oldie#

[The Charlton Guy]

Stu, don't! :eek:

Are you kiddin'?

I've been chompin' at the bit to have Stu chime in on this nonsense all night!

[DrWatson]

Nice place...good people....
That lets me out. :D

[stupidman]

--Naw, JDB, they just think you're Charlton Guy, that's all.

[jaydeebee]

Don't what?

I don't know, I just had this premonition that you were about to do something! :p

LMAO! Nah, I'm too stoned to start a fight. Right now I'm a baked hippy just like Steve B!

Well, they must be idiots then since my IP is completely different from CG's, not to mention my registration email. I guess they hire about as well as they...*ahem*

IM is here!

Jeez, this is like "Old Home Week"! :p

From the CGC Forum

Posted by Paratrooper:
hey, jaydeebee threatened to ban me on their site. Apparently they won't accept insults from members. Although they may allow Eide and Hammer to post there....strange the company they keep.

This is untrue. Normally I wouldn't mention action taken against a member, but the only thing I did was give Para an infraction, which is the forum equivalent of a stern look. I also sent him a PM warning him to be respectful of other member and notifying him that he was not "banned". I've also asked the other mods not to ban Paratrooper.

So, can anyone tell me why my quite reasonable and not at all disrespectful single post ever in my entire life over on CGC Forum got me banned? Perhaps one of you fine CGC regulars who aren't banned might ask the good gentleman in charge of the forum to at least explain his actions. (Not that I really care)

[malaprop]

Gee. I've never been banned anywhere. (sniff)

Actually the IP is pretty useless. People can use internet cafes, login from work, home, whatever and come up with many different IPs for one name. You also cannot always determine location. It dpeneds on how the IP is registered. The range may be owned by a aprent company that is a thousand miles away from the location the actual connection is. I have an IP in work that, if you look it up, is registered about 1500 miles from my office.

It had nothing to do with IP addesses. It had to do with a mandate from on high. And a hairtrigger mouse.

The bottom line in JDBs suspension is that he was defending me and The Corral and thus Arch thought he was me, returning as a shill.

I seriously doubt Arch took the time to check an IP address. It was a hairtrigger thing, that's all.

That's why Arch banned him.

I'm sure the same is true for me and Red Hook; A mandate, a hairtrigger finger and not much more than that. What else do you need as a corporate entity? No reasons are really required at all, other than self-protection.

Some kind of mandate must have come down from "on high" to get rid of the "troublemakers" (read, the people who aren't afraid to point fingers at iniquities and outright scams, even if they involve the hallowed slabs, no, ESPECIALLY if they involve the hallowed slabs) and Arch is just doing his job, like a good soldier.

I mean, heaven forbid such fingers should be pointed at their plastic slabs.

We can't have that! #oldie#

Red, I just want to state once more, publicly, that it is a complete travesty and stab in the back to see you banned at the CGC Forum. And I am proud to have been banned within the same 24 hours as you, sappy as that sounds. It's a badge of honor thing, ya dig?

It really is pitiful. And again, I am very thrilled that you and so many others have showed your support for freedom of expression and ideas and your support for the pursuit of slapping down the scammers and frauds in this wacky hobby of ours, and for the pursuit of TRUTH enough for you all to join us here in our humble (but potentialy powerful) digs here at The Corral.

Gotta go for now, but soon I'll meet you all over in the General Discussion Area, where I'll be leading a heartfelt rendition of "Kumbaya".

See you there!

[Pervtoyrow]

TCG - I know it has nothing to do with IP addresses. I was addressing the post that said they could use IP addresses to determine if two posters are one in the same.

[jaydeebee]

It seems that every message forum I've ever been on, someone has thought I was someone else...heck, I'm starting to develop something of an Identity Crisis!

Great points CG!

The main reason why many of us are here in the first place is because of the button pushers on eBay's discussion board and we were tired of not being able to voice our opinions and expose scammers without fear of being pink slapped.

Obviously the CGC boards operate in the same fashion.

It is nice to have a place where we can discuss things in an adult manner where you don't have to agree with everyone but can respect all points of view.

Thanks HOSS for making this the best place on the web to hang out! #rockon#

Thanks, CG. It's good to be here among my CGC brethren. You guys have a nice place here. Don't let us corrupt it.

Lol...this place is uncorruptable...

It's great to have you guys on Board.

More later...it's time for C.G. to go make the donuts.

Thanks again,

[jaydeebee]

What did you say?


Well I hate to revisit that shameful (for CGC) episode, but since you asked, here was my one and only ever post to the CGC Forum under the thread 'The Charlton Guy Banned'...

(I'll add the quote thingy so that you get more of the feel of the genuine CGC board)




Hi, never posted here before, but nobody picks on my buddy The Charlton Guy and gets away with it, other than myself.

A few posters have suggested that CG has been banned here, due to comments made on another message forum, independent of CGC, a board on which CG is himself a moderator.

I think most persons will agree that the CGC forum has the right to limit the discussions within their own forums. But they have no jurisdiction outside of these forums as to what can and cannot be said about them or their organization. It's called Freedom of Expression, yeah that's a cliche', but it also happens to be true.

Speaking as a moderator of the Comics Corral let me assure anyone who might think otherwise, that the content of the Comics Corral will not be dictated by anyone other than the Administrator(s) and the Moderators of the Comics Corral. Least there be any confusion.

Long live The Charlton Guy, the only Chalton Guy who matters!

(by the way, you're all invited to stop by and say Howdy!) http://boards.collectors-society.com/images/graemlins/default/hi.gif


I admit that it was somewhat confrontational on my part, but it also hardly warranted banning. But never the less, I was banned because the moderator thought that I was The Charlton Guy in a new guise, despite the fact that I had signed up there months earlier and despite that fact that I have used the same ID on eBay and the Comics Corral for years. But, I can live with it because I've never found that board to be particularly interesting and the format is bloody nightmare. :?

And mind you, I'm not saying that the CGC board is a bad place either, just not really my cup of tea. I never hung out there and now I guess I never will....or WILL I? :cool:

Well, I figure they're just frustrated 'cause they can't get their comics out of those little plastic cases to read them! :D

:? Uhhh....Brian who?

My name is Mark....no secret to any of our members here....especially since I do biz with most of them #rockon#

I don't think most people at the CGC boards are hostile....rather the contrary....but like any place you will have some who like strife & conflict more than adult interaction with their peers.

such as....


Why don't you losers get a life and discuss something worthwhile. All I see is a bunch of Nancy's bitching.

Not really a way to interact with others in a postive way for a first and only post at a discussion board.....but to each his own I guess.

By the way welcome to the Corral Paratrooper......I can't say I look forward to being called a loser and bitching Nancy in your posts but there are lots of good threads here at the Corral you can contribue to if you want such as SA/GA/Bronze age War Comics.....Those type of posts I would look forward to.

And welcome to you too Ryan Elliott....this seems like a strange thread for you to spend most of your early Corral time with....check out some of the other great posts around here. I think you will find 'em vastly more interesting than rehashing this old topic......

Is there a feud brewing between the Corral and the CGC boards? Will I have to change my identity to post over there?

Actually, I don't think I ever have posted there and frankly, it doesn't sound like I'll ever want to.

If anything, I think that the CGC Members who have joined us here and even those who prefer staying put on the CGC Boards have been very supportive of the Corral. This support was particularly appreciated by yours truly when I was banned over there. And I think that the folks who have stayed here at the Corral and become great contributing Members are here because this is a much more laid back joint. It's pretty much an apples and orages thing, but I happen to like both apples and oranges, so there you go.

The whole "bitching Nancy" thing is just a CGC inside joke.

As for the "loser" comment in the first post of this thread, I think that was a hairtrigger comment made before Paratropper even knew any of us, before he had a chance to see what this place is about, and I would bet that he has probably changed his mind by now (given the amount of time he is spending in the Arcade these days :D).

So the answer to your question is no, there is no feud.

[jaydeebee]

No feud?:?

Hey Pappy! Dat dere Chaltin' Guy says they ain't gonna be no feudin'!

What, no feudin!? Why dat lowdown gall-durned no feudin' agenda pushin' tool...
