Even on this forums the MRC admins continually refer to that ONE message I posted with the word 'fascist' in it.
Well, quite simply: you just
don't say that.. period. I mean, in the whole history of guyver@MRC-pepper, this was by far the darkest event.
MRC is an international portal (or what whatever you'll call it) .. no doubt there are MSX'ers, MRC-readers, who are kinda sensitive to those kinda words, more than others. I can clearly imagine MRC moderating that text away and banning you. Esp. since Bart (to whom the thread was aimed) got remarks of his colleages @ work, who're prolly not MSX'ers at all! This is clearly an example of a valid ban.. no matter how you twist and turn it.
First, as I have explained many times, that message was meant purely satirical, but has been taken way too seriously.
You have a twisted view on the world if you think someone can take that message as 'not so seriously' ..
Second, it's always being exaggerated, because I never said a lot of the the things that I'm accused of (here and elsewhere).
Well, and that summarizes everything I think, you clearly don't know how you appear at the other side of a posted message. If you assume you're mild/joke'ish/satirical, you could as well appear extremely rough.
MRC continually refers to this old issue, and Wolf_ should tell MRC to "let it go" in stead of me.
In a way MRC does .. since you're as good as 'void' on the forum/newsposts. The snout-reaction from a few days ago was purely a reaction to the content of the jury-report,
which you started.
The problem I have with MRC is one that started before the ban, that everything I said (even positive things) was taken in a negative way by some MRC admins and users.
Ultimately it results in my satirical message. And exaggerated parody meant to make the point clear. Obviously MRC didn't recognise the EXTREME EXAGGERATION and took it 100% literally and without humour and banned me...
Again, my words were interpreted in the most negative way and I lost the ability to defend myself on MRC completely.
You're unbanned.., tho I don't expect you back there anyway, knowing you..
As for the things you said .. see above .. it's your style which is a bit on the edge in some situations, and you know I've mentioned that @ IRC and @ query.., ages ago..
Can't you imagine that your style in those situations builds-up a certain 'image' of 'guyver800'? (and it's everyone who creates that image, not just admins) Unintended perhaps, but the image is there. Once you have such an image, things you say can be intepreted as extreme. And
that's where a little snowball becomes an avalance..
Then the problems intensified, their attacks towards me intensified and they spoke more and more lies.
Let's keep that in the middle, until we (the ppl who you think are against you) actually know something about it..
I posted about this on the MSX Mailinglist, but was flamed, told it was off-topic, and that I should go somewhere else.
You've a reference? (date? year? etc.) can't recall that, but I've no problem finding it if I know what to look for.. lately I skip the ML a bit since it's almost dead..
So I started posting on alternative MSX forums, but was flamed, told it was off-topic, and that I should go somewhere else.
Alltho I'm not signed-up for posse, I do tend to read it now and then, so I know the thread you're prolly referring to.. the thread while MRC was hacked while you were on holiday .. right? Again, ppl tried to be nice to you, tried to keep things calm, heck even to take away the accusions of you being the hacker, still you returned and continued with that typical overreacted style again ...
welcome home, how was your holiday? .. *sigh* Well, no shit Sherlock, but ppl don't want that.. not on MRC, not on Posse.
So I started things only on IRC, to a select group of people. But a lot of them flamed me, said it was off-topic, that I needed to get my head examined, etc etc etc.. So I stopped doing that too.
Can't say much about this since I don't know about which IRC-period you're talking now .. as in, I dunno what all hapaned @ #msxdev in the past .. half year orso?
I stopped saying bad things about about MRC for a long time, aside from the occassional joke on IRC. I even stopped visiting MSX fairs in order to avoid bad words and let things cool down.
Indeed, it was quiet for a while, which is why I expected (see my first post) that things might had cooled down a bit.. if you didn't add the MRC-issue in that jury-report, everything would be perfect, and you'd even have gathered a symbolical (+1) from me, 'forum-jargon'-wise ..
The fair thing .. well, dunno, iirc no-one was really bothered of you not being there. The only one who's bothered is prolly
you.
So I don't understand why people keep saying "GuyveR800 and MRC both said bad things", because I am not attacking them. I'm merely saying they are attacking me. Lying about me, accussing me of things I didn't do.
So, putting that MRC-issue in the report is 'not attacking them' ? Esp. the style, and again the fascist-word is the perfect example of what I meant with 'other side of the text' (see above). If you think that's normal writing, then you're wrong. Simple as that .. don't believe me? Take all this lot to a communication-expert and ask him/her for a 3rd party view on the matter.
Now you want to know what those things are... There we arrive at the "let it go" part again. I've "let it go" for the most part, so I do not keep an archive of all bad things they say.
Had you not put the MRC-issue in that report, I would've prolly believed you, up to a certain level perhaps, but at least more than nothing..
I do not want to invest the TIME and ENERGY it takes to make a list of all lies, because that would make me more depressed and I can better invest that time to create software for MSX.
Frankly, this is the same reason I have not sued them.
If you get a million euro from the lottery, even then you won't sue them.. mark my words..
Being unable to post about this at MRC, the MSX Mailinglist, other public MSX forums, IRC or other forms of internet communication, my only option is to ACCEPT BEING ATTACKED REGULARLY!
You are able to post about it, just make sure
- you aren't being banned
- you keep it unpepperised
That would mean seeing the MRC as a gossip magazine, a tabloid... But there is a problem with that. MRC is read by 3000+ people per day, most of which will believe what MRC writes.
Again, you're largely forgotton @ MRC-users, and admins tend to forget you as well .., the only reason Snout reacted few days ago, because you triggered the issue again.
You can see this is a vicious circle. Hopefully you can also see how unfair it is, as MRC's public is orders of magnitude larger than that of any platform I've written on.
Even the people that know the truth, because they were there, do not dare say anything anymore, because they have been called 'Anti-MRC' and 'sheep following GuyveR800 mindlessly' and 'brainwashed by GuyveR800'... While I can understand those people not opening their mouths anymore to protect themselves, it does leave me in a more painful position.
I could react on the latter arguement, but I decide to skip it for now .. need to think whether I react on that (and how .. I prefer mature debates) ..
... It's a popular thing to say "GuyveR800 did nothing but flame people on MRC"... I've read it even in this thread.
Yes, Clinton was not a really bad president (even Saddam confessed that, how's that!), but that single cigar did ruin his carreer .. once more a reason to watch your style, because if you have a bad rep. then it's purely because of that 5% text which was pepperised.
But it's not true... I posted more than 3000 messages there, most of which were helpful.
ppl, users and admins will always agree that you were most helpful on msx-support. No doubt about that..
Keep in mind tho that 'helping alot' doesn't give you more rights, esp. not more rights to use pepper-language..
I see now it was a mistake for me to step back into the public eye by accepting the job as judge for MSXdev'05. It was an even bigger mistake to join this forum and speak in the public again. The only result has been more lies and accusations.
No, being jury wasn't wrong, it was actually an opportunity to receive a (+1) .. forumspeak, but you ruined it yourself by using the report as a means to bring back the same old issues again. I think there's no-one who seriously thinks you were a bad choice to judge the games.. really.
The pessimist side of me thinks this message is just another big mistake, as no doubt MRC admins and their followers will find more ways to twist the truth and twist my words. They know they have the audience, and somehow they've managed to build trust...
well, dunno if it's a mistake, it's at least a means to talk things over, as far as that does even matter anymore..
So I'm fucked...
In your case it's called
'masterbation', really ( <- and that was a joke you should hopefully appreciate ^_^ )
The only thing left for me to say is this: Farewell!
tjaaaaa..
