Sure you can. Now who wants to be Gorbechov, who wants to be Kennedy, and who wants to be the boat that carries the warhead?

Kruze has suggested that Justin is an overweight crack addict who enjoys getting all sorts of fucked up and embarrassing himself and the public who stood behind him on the global scale. This is 100% false. I've only ever suggested that he hung out with the overweight crack addict not that he is an overweight crack addict. If you're going to mock me or try to belittle me somehow, Mike, atleast use facts and not fiction when you attempt pass your judgement and make false statements trying to back up an already weak point for yourself. I get that we don't agree on allot of issues, but you don't see me trying to tell others what you're saying or "interpreting" your little Mike-isms, yet I'm constantly correcting your dumb ass with your "interpretations" of whatever I'm saying after you attempt to put words in my mouth and twist something I say to something that's not even close to what I was conveying. So if you wanna talk about ridiculous, try having to correct your stupidity, on nearly daily basis, because you're incapable of an intelligent thought of your own.

Okay, so I hate to say it, but yes, the end is now here. And no, I do not mean the end of ManMMA. This site will be here til I die. I am talking about the end of bullshit. I ran this site as a democracy for 2 years, and it just eroded and turned into a mess. So now, it's dictator time. I am completely done with all of the bullshit. By which, I mean shit like this. A special rule was modified slightly based on in-simulator complications, and a shit-fit ensued, with baseless tag-team accusations of corruption. This stops now. If you decide to pollute the site with bullshit, you will be given an on-side request to stop, drop it, or let it go. If you do not, you will be given a permanent strike. If you continue, or do the same thing again, you will be banned, and your team will be dispersed. Period. Are we crystal fucking clear on this? 1 warning, then 1 strike, then YOU ARE GONE. Let the bitching begin, because this is probably the last thread I will be putting up with mindless complaining about how I run this site. It's all well and good to want to limit the "pollution" on the site, but I think the more apt questions that weren't in your bullshit Q&A there, are: 1) Who's going to police The Sandmen when he's contributing to the pollution and not the solution? 2) Isn't this measure really just an attempt to muzzle members such Phoenix FC, Cannon, GAP, etc.? Effectively rendering them defenseless if they're antagonized by other members on the site, up to an including The Sandmen? And if so, is that not just a regulation condoning bullying?3) Will The RocketMen be exempt from this new measure as he was when he was given a warning for misconduct last season by, then "staff member", Phoenix FC and it was just simply overturned by The Sandmen?

If you had the power to strike or ban people, there would only be three people on this site, Kruze, you, GAP and Samdman.

You're just batting a thousand here, eh bud. lol If you're referring to Cannon, I'm fairly certain both myself and GAP would've appeared on his ban list. If you're referring to me, that's even more false. As far as I can estimate it, I've been involved in these sim sites longer than both you and Sandman have, and in that time I've acted in all facets from regular member to head administrator, and in my tenures as a person with the ban authority, I can safely say that I can count the number of folks I've hit with the permanent 'ban hammer' on one hand; I have used the 1 one day and the 1 week ban on occasion though. It's not something I've ever used lightly or non-chalantly. To me, you've gotta pose a serious threat to the site (ie. hacking accounts, having double account without authorization) or their constantly breaking the site's rules on sexism, racism and bullying, and it's gotta be fairly extreme to even warrant a warning let alone an outright ban, but I've never permenantly banned anyone just because I didn't like them or found them annoying. These sites take all types of personalities to make them interesting and fun.

If you are not quitting, then you are bitching about nothing. Victims don't hang around bullies. They remove themselves from the situation. If you feel bullied, I would invite you to do that.

Of course you would invite that because then you can keep bullying folks without any resistance. : Look, dude... we all want this to end, but the fact that you and Mike are just sitting there and pointing fingers solely at us for being the whole problem in this is 100% fiction. You both need to change the way you treat us for this to work too dude. No more of your passive aggressive, sarcasm laden insults, thinly veiling humor and bile and in turn there's less complaining and "essays". You take ALL suggestions seriously, don't change rules to suit your own purposes and make it look like you're the only one that can do some things but when others do the same thing, you tell them they suddenly can't, then you don't get accused of cheating and bias. It's simple. That's what you call trade-offs bud, not you telling us to shut up, or else. That's a threat, not a compromise.

Yah, actually you kinda do, unfortunately Justin. It's that simple... and your refusal to even acknowledge it just shows that you don't give a shit as long as you get what you want. Quitting isn't resistance; quitting is giving up, and I'd rather see this site get better and ALL of us treat eachother better than give up and allow this to just continue when it doesn't have to. You're no angel in this situation either Justin; you hands are in this just as muchas anyone else involved. You just have to be willing to actually work together with everyone yourself, if you don't, and continue on as you are, that actually is bullying people because you're basically saying to everyone that we HAVE to do whatever you say or get the fuck out. And I really don't think that's actually the message you want to be sending to prospective new members, is it?

]Yah, actually you kinda do, unfortunately Justin. It's that simple... Then leave. You are either lying, or you have legit special needs. No one else would continue to cling to a bully. The internet is a huge playground, and no one is forcing you to play in the same corner as me. ManMMA is not a requirement of your life. If you feel bullied, sad, depressed, unhappy then don't stay. It's truly that simple.

I like the site just not how you treat folks nor how you go about your business, yet another reason why I stepped down as staff. I didn't want to deal with your bullshit anymore, I just wanted to enjoy the site, but you wouldn't allow that to happen. You actively went about setting up more sanctions and continued to passively make my existence on the site miserable by getting others to do your dirty work then hide behind "the league has spoken. But the thing is that if you actually read anything I've said in the last two posts, I'm offering solutions and you're the one refusing all solutions but your own.
