The fact is you're thin skinned and you're leaving, and you type horrible shit to people in private
Come to think of it, that's probably the gotcha, someone posting your filth into a public thread.
Most amusing
@jarland aww there goes my favourite Admin.
@AnthonySmith best of luck stepping into those big shoes.
I posted it publicly first, but you know... Alternative facts.
Hilariously embarrassing for yourself, glad you took a moment to shit on this announcement today ricardo
Wtf. Enough discussion. That matter is settled. Lets keep this thread to thank Jarland and congratulate Anthony. Ffs @ricardo. Dont drag it further.
What matter is settled? I'm just exchanging words with another member on here.
If you mean the matter of someone getting banned by an admin after their own exchange of words, whatever.
I don't mind saying good luck to jarland for the future, I'm just entertaining myself with why he's leaving. It's not like decorum is the order of the day when the ex-admin tells a member they should go kill themself. That's just a point of note on human decency, and that's just me to point it out.
User was banned for continually bringing up an off topic discussion which they were told their continued membership relied on them not continuing on LET. Then after receiving a warning for not complying, they proceeded to incite drama and demand to be banned until they received exactly what was promised. All made public and available for anyone who was interested at the time and also capable of reading.
Believing it went down any other way is creating a religion, it is an act of faith in defiance of publicly available fact. End of that story.
I'm just humouring myself, but I take exception to your version of events like I should lap it up. Why not just be honourable and leave without shitting on someone's doorstep.
thanks for heads up @Jarland and congrats @AnthonySmith
LET should whip up a LET history page outlining past and current admin/mods. Hard to keep track of heh
Too much drama. Drama has overflowed. I love drama but when it is like too many pages than I get lazy.
Ricardo, I like Mao, I said it numerous times, but even I would ban him. He just wouldnt stop going back to the old victim story. If I done that I would have rage quitted already.
Oh wait. I did. Quite a few times.
What I mean is, enough is enough. People have different opinions. If one isnt willing to accept others (not agree with) then insisting on it over and over gets pretty annoying. Its like old vets talking about wars they were, you know, the story gets old and eventually you need to tell them that, with all due respect, we have already heard the story a hundred times, it gets annoying. Thats Mao. Unable to accept different opinions and insisting, actually, forcing his target to agree with him. That's what makes him feel better and superior.
Wouldn't have to focus on "versions" if you weren't so committed to reducing your exposure to the data. Best not to let silly things like facts influence your opinions.
I merely answered a question that I knew would be asked. I did so in a polite manner without rehashing the details. Continued discussion about it is your choice.
This drama is interesting... an administrator steps off and many people are happy. This is worth many pages...
I totally disagree with
@jarland
about probably everything I suspect.
But it was def the right call. Now I'm not a LET vet but even I knew that it wasn't going to end well with that mao dude around.
He wouldn't keep the peace. I have disagreed with
jarland when I had an opinion and it is different, I will never fear to but when you keep rehashing the arguments, friends are even telling you to shut it, and provoking through chat, and starting flame wars again well that ain't good even for a loonytunes place like this.
Happy to stop talking about that, but perfectly willing to.
Sakes man, you can't make a simple point without implying some bullshit.
In the end, you're leaving, adios.
Will still be around. Hopefully not just to respond to accusations against me. I'd like to believe I'm not that special to any of you that my presence has to be merely in defense of my name when searched on Google by future employers (I'd be okay with there not being any, but who knows), though that's important enough to have me do it.
Hopefully I'll just be able to spend my time giving advice, teaching, providing support, and occasionally dropping offers. Sounds far more fun
My guts tells me this is because the latest speedy KVM drama.
I'll bet against you on that one. Could always use some cash!
@jarland
your name is not
@jarland
They won't be able to find it on let unless they get access to the database.
Not a whole lot of people named Jarland running MXroute and working for DO
Welcome Ant!
(I will throw you some money now to celebrate =P )
It's a bit early for the kids to take over, isn't it?
Have you looked at your avatar lately?
Im a different creature. Still a human.
ok from now @nekki
still more than anybody , so he owns cess pits
@jarland
Time to rename yourself to post-administrative you, AKA @Jar?
FINALLY! Jarland is no longer admin. When can we have a celebration party?
just kidding.
In my opinion, you're the nicest admin / member of this forum. You've been really patient with me when I didn't understand some terms and explained them without making me feel stupid. I really appreciate it!
congratulation sir @AnthonySmith
Thank you for your service @Jarland.
It was a
shitsh1t gig, but you stepped up.I welcome our new old bearded British overlord.
(somehow I know I'll never be able to run for public office after uttering this. Whew.)
