    You seem extra bitter as of late BitchFork

    Maybe it hurts being called bitchfork and I'm finally lashing out
    Do you prefer beating off to roadhouse, ghost, or dirty dancing?

    Got purged back on 08 (I think it was) with the rest of the Halfbrains. Stupidly subscribed again in like 2011, which at least lead to Kim's famous "But why is Emmert a bad president???" post. Seppuku'd my way into my final ban.

    So I'm cleaning out some old emails and found this in my sent box dated October 28, 2009, so apparently my original bannination was a little later than I remembered.

    Kim,

    I've always felt that I had a good relationship with Dawgman, perhaps even a mutual respect. I have often defended you and your site against attacks from Ruth and her followers, Basnight and his ilk, and even the Oregon and WSU fans who claim that Fetters is bumping the ratings of UW's recruits. I trust you know this to be the case.

    I'm not exactly sure when it happened or specifically why, but at some point you decided you didn't like me. That's okay, I suppose, I understand I'm opinionated and opinionated people will never be liked by all. When you left the Pit I took some of your comments as aimed at me (correctly, as it turns out) and PM'ed you about it to try and understand why you felt that way, but predictably you dodged the question and never responded. Five or six weeks ago I was banned from Dawgman with no explanation. I will readily admit that I created a couple of new handles (none of them offensive or attacking) and tried to return to the boards, only to be IP banned almost immediately.

    I never complained or even asked about the banning. I decided to accept it and move on.

    However, two things have come to light to me in the past week that have caused me to write you. First, westsidecougar1 PM'ed me and asked me what happened. I told him I was banned and he wasn't sure why, and he said that the rumor on Dawgman is that I was banned for a racist comment? I'm sure you can understand that I found that alarming. I don't assume that this rumor came from your staff, but if that turns out to be the case that would certainly be...bothersome.

    Secondly, BM told me that before the banning you called me the biggest troublemaker of them all. I will not pretend that I've never stirred the pot but I think I've done far more favorable for you and your site than negative. I've never tried any hidden link BS. I've never had an obsenity laced tirade against an admin or another poster. I've never made more than a few handfuls of posts under alternative handles. I've been a loyal defender and advocate of your site for almost a decade.

    Simply put, sir, "I don't get it". I believe I deserve an explanation. How did I become Grinolds Enemy #1? What did I do that was worthy of banning that hundreds of DM.c posters don't do all the time?

    Please save the references to rule 8 and the list of alternative handles, and actually answer the question. What did I do to make you hate me?



    Lil Kim never responded, of course.

    Seems like you cared
    Oof.

    Don't make me THINK about it.

    I don't know about @HillsboroDuck but @dnc was one of the classy posters there. To be singled out as a racist troublemaker is odd to say the least

    In Obama's America the worst thing in the world is to be called racist. So just label anyone who disagrees as racist and you can control them.

    I like how it works here. Derek is Stalin and requires no justification.

    My bad.

    You should lurk around a bit and get a feel for the boards. If you have any questions feel free to shoot @IrishDawg22 a PM, because he has this place dialed in.
    Thanks. Been lurking on the recruiting board for a couple of months now I think. Didn't think the thread I posted was appropriate for that forum, so I popped over here to ask.

    I was also really heated at the time of posting and the thought of looking for a previous thread wasn't top of mind.

    "Heated"?

    Wtf...are you 12?
    Would you prefer I use a different word next time? Please let me know so I can still not give a shit.
    Now you’re getting the hang of it. Not to worry. I was once sincere and eager. Even now I occasionally lapse. But then the darkness of this place comes over me and makes me right again.

    Your bannination was actually the catalyst that caused my bannination. You were always one of my favorite classy poasters, and you getting banned really pissed me off. I voiced my displeasure at your banning in a less than classy manner, and received a ban of my own.
