I can't be banned based on current grex policy polytarp.
Or should I say celfie..or oblio or chemical?
Are you still dating Autumn?
 I know this. The staff knows this. The board knows this.
They could officially change the policy and do it but then they would have
to change thier principles also..core values aren't easily ignored.
 By the way ..been to AO lately? Are you still dating Autumn?

Oh yea....and just who the fuck do you think YOU are?
I don't suggest you that you encourage that...they would probally ban your
ass first. Besides...A majority of the users here understand the importance
of free speech,,and non-censorship. Even if they hate my guts they will still
tolerate my raving just on principle. It beind this. "I may not agree with
what you say but I will defend to the death your right to say it"
This is an American principle. It's something that someone from canada cannot
understand.:p

True..I was never in the marines and I'm not a black belt.
I've been taking tang soo do for the last three years though.
I'm actually 5'10" at 185lbs. A bit of gut from beer and weed but mostly
muscle. I bench 230lbs and have in the past reached 280. Ive never reached
my goal of 300lbs however.

People can say whatever they want...name calling doesn't bother me.
If it's original I'll even laugh myself.
My brother used to logon here as "tinman" a few years ago. He told me about
grex. he misrepresented it to a degree however and hence my attitude.
He used to go long periods between logins. The disk-reclaimer program deleted
his account when he waited too long between logins. He is a bit of an
asshole(genitics perhaps?) and used to have tussles with some of the grex
staff. I don't remember who exactly and since he is in memphis,tn and I am
in Ft Lauderdale I can't ask him now. He was under the impression that his
account was deleted for his behavior and he told me as much. Knowing what I
know now about the system and policy and can only guess it was the disk
reclaimer program that was responsable. I tested the policy myself(heh heh)
and he sure wasn't banned for behavior. I think he logged on not to long ago
as I see him saying to polytarp
>"shut up polyfart" in polytarp's party paste in his plan.
>I'll have to ask him though..it may have been another "tinman"

"Testing us," eh.  You're trying to make yourself sound like a hero, an
exploder of the bullshit of others.  Well, next time, start at home.  That's
total bullshit.

We hear that line a couple times a year from people who think that in 12
years nobody on Grex has ever thought of it before.  You claim Grex was
boring before you came along.  Dude, the reason nobody was even tempted
to boot you off was that you are about the 100th repeat of the same old
thing.  We're all very used to having some noise generated by people who
can't think of anything better to do with free speech than to try to punish
the people who grant it to them by being as obnoxious as possible.  Some
times the noise is more, sometimes it is less.  We've plenty of experience
coping with noise generators substantially louder and disruptive than you.

Different users cope different ways.  Some try to ignore it.  Some make a
game out of baiting trolls by responding in kind.  Others just try to spin
interesting conversations out of or around the noise.

You think you made this place interesting?  Sorry, but you haven't expressed
a single idea or said a single thing that couldn't have been collected in any
7th-grade homeroom in the country.  You didn't start interesting threads -
you started stupid threads which other Grex users have worked hard to spin
into interesting conversations.

I will say that you can be quite convenient to have around.  An actual smart
Republican who understood his party's positions and the rationale behind them,
and could argue them effectively could be a lot harder to respond to in a
satisfying way.  You provide an excellent strawman conservative.
