Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1257992the body of glp was still warm they didnt waste much time lol just shows you there is no loyalty , none whatsoever Yea, i did to see wtf was going on. Were you on voice chat? Did you hear what Trinity was saying? The fact that any GLP'er went anywhere else to find an explanation means nothing. Now, if they talked shit on the forum then i agree with you. Aye, aye Sir! I missed your avatar most of all, Richard! |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1257992the body of glp was still warm they didnt waste much time lol just shows you there is no loyalty , none whatsoever if yesterday was an experiment, I would say it was a very telling one... This is a conspiracy site, an alt news forum, a good sized one, where a lot of voices that would not otherwise would be heard are albe to speak out and it is very easy to use, no registeration, screening and the like, they have issues here with attacks and i did not like the way it went down, maybe they had to make it seem like it was going out for good, maybe it was just hype to put in upgrades, The benefit outweighs the crap, and the posters are often saner than the mods. though emotions get the best of a lot. THERE is no LOYALTY to a site, especially when there was good evidence on facebook that it was gone for good. i suspect that this thing was really, really close to being gone forever, toast, and somehow they came to their senses, after a lot of convincing minds were changed. Of course i am horrified to hear about threats and hope those are caught and punished. but sadly the disclaimer "don't believe a damn word you read on this website." will always ring through. in a way that is good, makes u investigate. Oh and if certain topics and words and stories are banned here they have that right, That is why the world is full of other istes and the story is there, that's what makes free speech so good. I agree that the website has the right to allow and not allow certain topics of discussion... there has to be some order to maintain smooth operations. I do think however, there should be a very concise and clear cut- list/statement that leaves no question about what is and isnt tolerated/accepted here. There would be a dramatic decline in certain types of discussions and an increase in the type of threads most of us are interested in... The lack of clear boundaries, heightens the risk, the drama the emotional charge, that is how glp keepitself going, when someone is banned they don't go whatever, you suck anyway. they get proxies, troll even more and get in good then boom out again, As for the legend of glp, who cares!!! banning is a great conspiracy, the best ones usually involve your friends and family, coorinating the intervention, or your job, getting shfted out of your position, etc. not governments and secret agents Let be be finale of seem The only emperor is the emperor of ice cream--Wallace Stevens I have seen the eternal footman hold my coat and snicker and in short I was afraid--T.S.

I do have issues with the way certain things have transpired, and question it because I want to see it improved...without change, nothing improves..

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1258402 Brazil 02/07/2011 02:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | To be honest, I have no idea what transpired over the weekend. I only tried to log on SUnday night and got the strange biblical quotation page and the farewell file which I didn't download. When next I tried to log on there was no problem and I checked out Trin's message as to the reason. After many hours, I posted a thread asking about the offer upgrade and if anyone had yet received it. Bang! Instantly, the message was deleted and my IP banned. I made a further comment later on another thread explaining this and suggesting the IP ban was a bit harsh. Within moments, the post was deleted from the thread and my Ip and Email were both then banned. Now, I found this very strange as I was in no way trolling or being disruptive in any shape or form, but have since discovered that things have been decidely strange since the return of GLP. To whit, many regitards have been banned and one thread from a particularly whiny Englishman was finally deleted, even after posts from some of the mods which appeared to ridicule the said poster. Something definitely seems to be up here and I fully expect this post to be deleted and my Ip banned yet again. Umm, things that make you go umm. |

Umm, things that make you go umm. have you inquired and/or been given any explanation yet?! No, I have not inquired and, to be honest, many times when I have inquired about similar bans I have been mocked and ridiculed by the mods like an ex poster was today. Having said that, although on one occasion Evil twin thought I had been trolling, when I explained my position he was very curteous. I have come to accept that GLP does as it wishes and have long since given up any hope of a fair and logical explaination. I have since come to the conclusion that there is more to the free upgrade offer than meets the eye. And the same goes for many facets of GLP. But the major reason I haven't asked is that I believe there is something inherently rotten in GLP and I have decided to bow out. Now I expect a tirade of abuse etc, for this comment, and so be it. This site is not the right place for a questioning mind, because a questioning mind will question everything and that is a dangerous practice at GLP. I wish you all the very best for the future at GLP. Au revoir! |

I wish you all the very best for the future at GLP. Au revoir! That is definitley a great example of what I was refering to in my original post...why is it that so many valid/logical/genuine/curious questions are met with such hateful/spiteful/just plain immature and cruel criticisms? I understand your frustrations, and support you in your decisions...a person can only be treated like a second rate human before they start pushing back- and thats really the basis for this thread. If glp gives a shit about its posters who have for the most part followed the invisible and ever changing rules, perhaps they could address and consider (even put themselves in anothers shoes for a minute) maybe all these qualms that so many people have could quickly become non issues if dealt with respectfully and humanely. I read Trinity's thread about pulling together showing support and all that jazz, i think its important that those behind the scenes here realize that its a 2 way street. good luck on your interwebz adventures, hopefully you find somewhere that youre comfortable with and can believe in!
