....did this is being very childish. Totally uncalled for and especially since it's Chritmas.

And this is Logic speaking.

I can almost guarantee it was someone from my home board and I myself would like to apologize even though I had nothing to do with it. If you're going to troll do it right.

If people from this board invade I will personally hold you responsible and attempt to get you banned there.

You may have noticed, Logic, you've not been banned.

The primary reason for that is because I think you started out as someone who was just trolling, but you've actually become a bit of a fixture on here.

I would like to see you apologize for a few of the things you've said, but I'll leave doing so up to you. There are some here who will accept the apology, and likely some who won't. I think Jay and Magilla in particular deserve the apology. No matter what your feelings toward the war in Iraq are, don't take it to the personal level against people on this forum.

I will say you've now been warned, and tagged as a troll. I don't mind you staying here - as long as you'll be nice to people. If you decide to be a jerk now, you will be banned.

As far as the incident this morning (for those who didn't see it, someone signed up for the purpose of attacking Arkady, and posted a large number of threads in general) I'm going to let it slide this time. The user in question has been banned, and the mess has been cleaned up. If it happens again, I'll very likely contact the user's ISP, and see if I can get someone's internet access terminated.

So, welcome to KnoxGothic. You'll find that for the most part, we're pretty nice people here - unless you piss us off.

I guess I should have banned the whole IP range. :shrug: I have to say though, some of those topic titles were really funny.

naah. I don't generally ban IP ranges either, but this one was a bit of a special case.

The problem with banning even a single IP address is that as dynamic as addressing is these days, you can end up hitting an innocent - like the time I accidentally banned Silver Frost while getting rid of a troll.

Nashville actually banned all of Bellsouth's Knoxville dialups for about a week once. As you might imagine, they hit quite a few legit users with that one.

And yeah, the topic titles were pretty funny. If they hadn't taken up so damn much space on General, I might have left them.

I'm trying to figure out where the one you grabbed as your sig could go... it might be a funny joke.

Karla and I were thinking the same thing about the joke. ;)

Hmmmm....I know who the Pimp was....he was on the stage singing the Humpty Dance song.

The Goth could be George.....


I am a little sketchy about the hip-hop kid though.

Ah yes, I remember now.
