It was a BS ban no matter what Hootie said to get you guys to let him come back. If Crazy Coffee wanted his deep dark secrets kept secret, he shouldn't have been sharing them with the guy he was fighting with on the board. Wait a minute... is Crazy Coffee one of those guys you think needs to be protected from smart people?

Oh. ok. I'll shut up now..lol

My bad. In that case I have no idea what the hell he could have done then everyone else on the board doesn't do.

I need protection from you, Pat.

These two posts, almost back to back, are awesome.

We need all the details!

Spare us the details!

Can't make everyone happy... or anyone, I guess. Maybe a poll with the percentage of information needed from the mods would be good for future reference.

It really does. I've had Hamas on ignore for 3 years. I just took him off recently because it seems like he's mellowed tremendously since becoming a father. In fact, I've rather enjoyed several of his contributions to the board.

You think the original permaban was because Hootie shared a secret of CC's?

Where's the "Meh" option?

Agreed on that one. I liked the new Hamas while he lasted.

BTW Pat, he didn't beg to come back. I did that all on my own.

Is this a ****ing joke? Your job is to keep the peace, and I assumed they would welcome the option to never have to see his posts ever again unless someone quoted them by IGNORING them. That's the worst excuse I've EVER heard. This is favoritism at its purest.

i used to be against it on some kind of false principle...

then i realized it removed aggravations from sight in .0001 seconds and life went on as normal...i'd carefully suggest that people who don't use the ignore button want the drama...

Let us see the screen shots from the mod forum! woot! IDGAF if hootie got banned, or why. its just that the mods here are fueling these ****ing hootie threads. THATS HILARIOUS! just lock this and gochiefs thread and the pain is over.

Yeah. I've been here over 6 years, and I've never seen anyone say anything close to what was said to earn the ban. Saying it was way over the line doesn't do it justice, IMO.

It was because hootie threw salt in his wounds. It was pretty grotesque (CC filled me in on the details), but it wasn't perma-ban worthy by any stretch.

Bullshit. That ignore option goes both ways. You have no argument or way to spin this. I call favoritism.

Sorry, then you got a watered down version of what happened from CC, or you're a really sick ****.

And on a side note, why the **** would CC confide in you?

I guess I just don't see why it's OK for people to post all kinds of personal shit about Badgirl and countless others, but CC or whoever else is out of bounds. I think it should all be out of bounds personally, but why is it OK when it's a pile on, but when it's one member going at another member, suddenly it is off limits?

BTW, I have probably interacted with Hootie less than 10 times. Ultimately, I don't care at all about him. I do think he brings some entertainment to this board and isn't close to being the worst poster on this board, but it isn't as if I have some kind of close friendship with him or something.

That's not even true. He wasn't even banned for stepping over the line. Those posts got scrubbed IMMEDIATELY. I was on them just as fast as he posted them.

He got banned because I told him that it was inappropriate and that he was not to ever post about the stuff CC shared with him again or he would be permabanned. Then he went and did it anyway - with a clear understanding he would be permabanned. Yes, let's all shed some tears for Hootie. He never does anything wrong.

Was it worse than making fun of someone who was dying of cancer and mocking their death?

Heh. He wouldn't.

Eh, I've seen it play out several times. I've seen mods lock threads over drama like this, and it just creates more whining about not knowing the full story, etc... sure, it's not necessary for us to still be here talking about it, but it'll die down on its own regardless of what we do. I'd rather be transparent about it, and it's a slow day.

Here we go.

Being a mod really is a thankless job. so I want to be clear that I am not pissing on the mods. I would just lock this thread quietly though with no comment..lol

I'm out. Have a good night all.

It's funny, I was going to ask you why you didn't use the ignore feature on Hootie instead of following him around to every thread waiting for him to trip up since you obviously hated his posts so much.

Hey man, you know you're one of my favorite people on here. Even during that I posted that you didn't deserve anything for that. My point is that people on here post shit like that all the time.

You want me to tell Frazod and Dartgod to ignore Hootie so that Hootie can complete the terms of his probation?

It's kind of hard to ignore him, since his name has been featured in about 5,000 posts today.

It's really not that hard to understand. It's your fault for banning the guy. You didn't have to do it. When you realized that the agreement you had with Hootie was ridiculous because it was leading to a ridiculous result (i.e. banning him over completely tame, by CP standards, interactions), you could have simply decided that it was too ridiculous to ban the guy. And if you didn't realize that the agreement was leading to a ridiculous result, that's your fault too.

The person who did that was humbled, owned the mistake, and imposed a ban upon himself. I've never seen anybody else own a mistake to that extreme. I'm still impressed by it to this day.

Same here. I'm sure Hootie's defense team - who seem to have absolutely no grasp of the facts here - will continue their candlelight vigil for another day or so, at least. I won't be missing much by turning in early.

No, but I would think the reasonable thing to do would be to look past Hootie responding if they started it.

It isn't as if Hootie instigated it post "short leash."

You're absolutely right. It is my fault. What now?

Same reason he confided in hootie, I guess. Evidently he feels the need to vomit his emotional baggage all over an internet forum. When badgirl does it, people pile on her. When CC does it, he's a martyr.

Exactly. Pretty weird.

I actually read and participate on this site in addition to the moderator duties.

Here are the first couple of examples I found. I don't know if there are more because I stopped looking after the first 2. (Keep in mind that hootie's real name is easily accessible on this board.)

Don't forget the part where pricks like you catalog every bit of it for later use!

I don't think it's a secret since CC is the one who let the cat out of the bag, but yes.

It's not an exact correlation, but CC did it while drunk and fighting with hootie, so there's that.

It appears that this post would be a candidate to be reported by the love police.

It's amazing how much time a person has to spend cataloging when he isn't busy doing drugs, eating everything in sight, abusing his wife, or alienating his family.

I notice you didn't post any dates on those, or links. However, yes, I said those things. A long time ago. But recently, the only people who bring it up are you and billay.

However, those comments accurately depict what he admitted. Bragged about, as I said.

He's also a self-admitted coward who starts trouble with others and then hides behind his friends. I assume that's another aspect of his character that appeals to you, isn't it?

where is the give a **** less option.

poll fail

Not everyone has your impeccable character.

The posts were in the last year, BTW.

I guess you could own it like Flopnuts did.

I think everybody acknowledges CC was a complete moron when he did that. That's probably why Hootie wasn't actually banned when he revealed it. He was only banned AFTER DISOBEYING SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS NOT TO POST ABOUT IT EVER AGAIN.

I'll bet it was my fault he was permabanned over that one too. I shouldn't have given him a directive I knew he wouldn't be able to follow.

So WTF did Hootie say to CC that was that bad? I've seen some pretty venemous shit spewed on this board go unchecked.

Just think, if only you'd spent a little more time working and a little less time cataloging the decades-old problems of strangers on the internet, your ****ing business wouldn't have folded.

Nice to know you've got your priorities in the right place.

That would make everything better for you? You want me to say that it's my fault that Hootie couldn't avoid Frazod, Dartgod, and CC? You want me to post that in my sig, start a thread or what. Would a simple post in here suffice?

We'll never repeat it. Don't even ask.

You've seen worse. It's hurtful to CC, but not more hurtful than some of the other things that have been said around here.

How about a William Wallace type thing where you confess while being torchered?

Fair enough.

Didn't R8ers imply Dane was a pediphile?

Anything happen to R8ers for that?

Let me be clear. I like Dane about 100,000x more than I like R8ers. Dane said something about filming R8ers daughter in a porno. R8ers daughter is 12. I'd love to ban R8ers for something but it's not going to be for that.

Flopnuts owned his by pleading guilty, apologizing to those who were offended and accepting his ban. Pleading guilty alone isn't owning it. Reversing your decision, apologizing to Hootie, and letting Hootie sink or swim as a regular member instead of a second class citizen would be owning it. Of course, if apologizing to the guy would be too humbling, I'd personally be satisfied if you reversed the decision on the basis of overwhelming board sentiment and let Hootie have a fresh start as a member without a bullseye on his back.

I didn't say command them, I'd strongly encourage it. I feel like you showed favoritism or a lack of objectiveness to a member of the forum by allowing the people he was supposed to stay away from, to respond to him unprovoked. I'm sure that happened on more than one occasion. And vice-versa. Needless to say, I bet you were surprised he lasted 3 weeks let alone 3 days. I feel like you set him up to fail. Which is underhanded and manipulative.

From last year's douche contest, no less (oh the irony):

You're really still making this argument? Hootie, don't smoke dope unless somebody else is smoking dope first. Then we're going to look the other way.

The probationary terms were designed to make Hootie a kinder, gentler user of this site... at least, I presume that was the intention. He was told to avoid those people. THAT INCLUDES RESPONDING TO THEIR BAITING. Why didn't he put those people on ignore? There really is no excuse for Hootie. If he really wanted to be on ChiefsPlanet, he would have obeyed the terms. He didn't.

You, Patteu, nor anybody else will ever convince me that any of this is somehow my fault.

Selling a business really sucks. A nice chunk of change and extra time to spend it...that equals a meth binge for people like you. Fortunately, I don't work that way.

Yeah, I'm sure your pennies on the dollar December sell-off was a real boon for you. Sure has done wonders for your sunny disposition. LMAO

Yikes. I missed that part.

I'm honestly done responding to this thread because it has become clear that you aren't going to reverse your decision no matter how many people want you to. It's counterproductive to keep rehashing the same things here.

The terms were ridiculous if he was told not to even respond to attacks from other people. That is insane on this board.

But again, I like you personally and I don't want to continue arguing with you about this, because it really doesn't matter ultimately. If you and you alone feel that Hootie shouldn't be here, then it looks like that is enough.

Only in your world is being successful at something worthy of ridicule. Why don't you make fun of me because my dick is too big or because my house is too nice while you're at it?

Saul would you agree that ****ing a girl that was passed out is rape?

Also I remember hootie bragging about how he would **** chicks when he has an STD.

I know he is young and probably says and does stupid things but that still doesn't excuse it.

Damn, CP has gotten intense today.

Correct me if i'm wrong, Hootie'sSugarDaddy, but aren't those threads about a year old?

Is Hootie your kid? Cousin? Gay lover? I mean, there have been people I've defended here over the years (although not so much from things the admitted and bragged about), but I was never so devoted/lovestruck/queer for them that I held a grudge over it for a year. And only with one person, too. What's up with that Saul? I guess you hate me as much as your gaga for Pootie.

Did he hit your G spot or something?

Since I'm unqualified to take sides on this or practically any other issue, this actually sounds pretty rational.

But, speaking as someone who really doesn't care one way or the other about any of this, it really does seem as though Mr. Hootie is treated differently than other posters. Some people on this board just don't like other people on this board. It's human nature. I, for example, cannot bear Mr. gblowfish and his wacky "10 things" threads. I fully expect to see a "10 things" I did this week thread from now until the end of time as we know it. That would be okay, of course, were it not for the fact that sometimes in life there are 11 things and sometimes there are only 9 things. Heck, sometimes there are only 5 or 6 things. It stretches credulity, in fact, that a person encounters 10 things week after week after week with no deviation whatsoever. Yet, we get 10 things regardless of whether or not 10 things are warranted. I assume that Mr. gblowfish has 10 toes. Coincidence? I shall leave that for you to determine.

Meanwhile, I understand that Mr. Hootie and Mr. frazod and Mr. Dartgod and Mr. CrazyCoffee don't see eye to eye. In fact, it appears that Mr. Hootie is equally at home pissing in Planet Cheerios as he is in the shower. However, I fail to see the distinction between his board behavior and that of many other posters whom I shall not name for fear of getting my own ass banned to hell and gone.

Frankly, this whole deal sounds like Mr. Hootie slobbered on somebody's finger when he kissed the ring.

FAX

It's not your fault that he made those posts. That said, you're acting like an NBA referee who keeps calling carrying on one player while never calling it on any other player in the league while pointing to the wording in the rule book that defines a carry and saying that it isn't your fault he carried the ball. Every player in the league carries the ball every time it's brought up court, but it's just that one player who keeps getting whistled.

What is your fault is your selective interpretation and enforcement of the rules.

He didn't last 3 weeks. He got banned for 2 days almost immediately after coming back.

The terms of the probation were laid out via PM from DaFace. I didn't have anything to do with those original terms. So, if they're underhanded and manipulative then you're going to have to take that up with DaFace who is the fairest mod in the history of ChiefsPlanet if you ask anybody including Hootie.

You're still telling me that I should suggest to Frazod and Dartgod that they should watch their step around Hootie since Hootie is on probation and he's been instructed to avoid them. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

He didn't **** a passed out girl. He met up with one of his exes at a bar. She wanted to bang him. They both got drunk, went home, and had sex. They have had sex since then, and they are still friends to this day from what I understand. He didn't rape anyone.

Yeah, and you've been using your big dick to make sweet love to your wonderful wife in your big house all weekend long.

Oh wait - that's not right. You've been here, arguing with fatloserdivorceddrugaddictwifeabuser.

That must be some idyllic existence you've got there. Must be - you're obviously so content and happy - joy practically oozes off my monitor when you call me a drugged out wife abuser.

Those posts were less than 11 months old. I don't really give a shit about defending him. I give a shit about calling out you for being a piece of shit. You're always the victim in your own mind, so I realize that you can't differentiate the two.

This is a great idea. I don't have qualms with his banning but don't really dislike the guy at all. I hope he takes it and runs with it.

That's a pretty good analogy and it's completely accurate but it doesn't account for probation. Let's make up another analogy involving popping on a piss test and a player being on probation.

I want to apply for mod...











...so I can ban everyone who is crying about Hootie being banned.

If that is true my apologies to Hootie.
