    I havent spent much time at WPC but I havent seen any attacks on poly. I've seen lots of comments here about WPC and how it should be attacked though.

    Personally, I'm undecided. I do know that I'm tired of every OTF thread becoming either an attack on BK and or christianity or a "look at me" ego-fest for a certain poster. Its gone on for too long and the OTF is the worse for it. So I'm willing to look at what is happening over there. So far the thread topics have not been to my taste but it's evidence of my growing displeasure with poly OTF that I'm even looking. After all, I only post at one other site and thats on-topic TW.

      You've never liked me and you've never handled it well. I don't get it, nor do I particularly care, but your habit of using every thread to express how much you hate me is painfully ironic.

        I want to state, that i believe what the majority of users, who migrated there (and i may actually follow soon), think that, while totally doing it in a wrong fashion, Dale did what many others would have liked to do as well and have a feeling of understanding for it. This becomes apparent, when Dale can state, that vbulletin2 (or whatever - i have no idea about this stuff) only allows for 400 deletes with one hit - implying, that he would have deleted the entity of asher´s posts on poly, had it been possible without a great effort - without getting any protest whatsoever. And many (and i am only stating what i think many people think, but dont dare saying) would have actually liked to see that happen.
        Yeah... supporting death threats and abusing powers to delete posts, many of which had nothing wrong with them, because he was angry... Dale, what a guy. Maybe weplayciv needs a new marketing phrase... Be Like Dale...

        It never ceases to amaze me that there are people who support the type of actions Dale took... they rationalize that it was OK... sure they say things like "he did it wrong", but still support his actions by trying to say he was justified.

        I guess to some, committing a felony can be justitifed by a some insults..
        What a stand up guy...

            I registered rah just to preempt anybody other wise guy.

            What dale did was wrong. Very wrong. I do realize the frustration that it came from but I won't let him use that as an excuse. I could have even forgiven him for it. At least until I read that useless sack of crap that he called an apology. His greatest weakness is that he still believes it was deserved and he'd probabaly do it again.
            That type of thinking should disqualify him from any position of authority as far as I'm concerned.
            It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

              Amazing how you knew I was refering to you since there are others who love "look at me" threads too.

              As for liking or not liking you, thats a complex subject but it's true that I havent appreciated your actions here for quite some time.

              I think you need to look up the meaning of irony. The irony is that you dont understand the meaning of irony.

                Oh, come on. It's not amazing. You were attacking me specifically just last night for the very same thing.

                I think this is why you don't like me. You have a habit of saying stupid things, and I latch on to those...

                  Exactly, I have no problem with him as a poster, but as a mod?

                  I thought he should stay after his apology and not be permabanned because he at least cared enough to give a token response.

                    I honestly hope its just users ****ing around because if it is the mods who are registering other people's names for the express purpose of denying it to their normal users while claiming those people are welcome then that is a massively bad sign. I would like some clarification on this.

                      While I think they could be that petty, I doubt that they'd be smart enough to think of it.

                        Asher, I've never attacked you. As a matter of fact, in our first meeting, I defended you against Boris Gudunov who was attacking you over your (then) professed bisexuality. Aside from your computer expertise I'm not interested in your posts, but I cannot avoid them since you post the same puerile **** in every thread. Hence, my comments stating my opposition to your behaviour.

                            My guess is that the site wasn't sold but the old administration was overthrown when the server became sentient. That's what all those slow downs were about... an internal struggle to contain the beast slowing taking control of Apolyton. Robert Plomp is actually the server itself.

If anything, it might be too similar to Poly, some people have complained it's too many poly users there, and too few from other sites.
