Never banned.
Self-imposed exile instead for my lack of exercising better judgment during that period of time. Apparently it wasn't long enough according to certain people since they feel the need to drag my name through the mud even after nine months have passed. O'well. BTW, nice PM playa. Real classy. |

Good thing he PM'ed you. The whole idea of PMing is to keep it private. I never had anything against you but it is getting easier to see how people did.

Consider the way Jason K. has been slamming you at TPF General, methinks he lied in his email.

I was just starting to read the 48 or so post thread on their message board when it was deleted. I can't help but wonder what I missed. I definitely see Skydog's logic about keeping objectionable threads but just closing them once they have been around for a while. Now, with this thread having been deleted I'm just very suspicious and using my imagination which may have me thinking worse things then the actual thread.

1. A guy asks for a TPF/FOF comparision 2. I read the thread early on, but decided that I would say nothiing. 3. One guy responds, specifically asking for my take. 4. I give my honest take, which basically is that the jury is out on TPF, but that FOF2K4 is a very immersive experience for me, but that some won't like it. 5. SlapBone goes BALLISTIC over this response--expressing anger that I was even made a beta tester for TPF, and posting a laundry list of my evil deeds. Among other things, according to him I had hidden agenda as a tester. There was an underlying implication that I've tried to undermine .400 and TPF. (Note: I still can't find but one interaction that I've ever had with him in the past....) 6. Jason K. jumps in with his 2 cents. 7. Ol' SkyDog offers them both a little change for their 2 cents worth. I'm still not sure where these guys were coming from, or what their agenda is...

I missed the 48 pager over there, unfortunately. I think Joe is having one of his "moments" because he's made a couple of pretty insane comments. One being the "look at our deleted threads / ban user ratio". This is funny because 1) The two really have nothing to do with each other and 2) He said this after apparently deleting another thread.
The kicker for me was him claiming there are no fanboys on the .400 forums. Truely classic moments going on tonight. |

And that Slapbone, Jason K and Ben were/are all part of the beta team. Which is not a bad thing because I always believe in diversity in testing - you must have different styles playing/testing the same game.

SkyDog,
Ah, I replied in that thread, but the action happened aftwards. Darn! What is especially funny is that most people seem to say that the draft is the best part of the game right now (me included), and that's specifically the part that you were focused on during your testing! SD, may I be the first to inform you that your attempt to sabotage TPF by destroying the features you were focused on has completly failed. You not only failed yourself, but you failed the FOF community that was counting on you to make sure TPF was not any kind of competition for Jim and FOF2k4. For shame! |

Well, if you had read the other thread you would know that SD gets his way no matter what. He obviously tested the hell out of the Draft so he could make himself look better, while in the meantime he was sending messages to Arlie to encourage putting in RTE 91's, system crashes, and implementing a magical spyware that deletes the latest version of DirectX and Jet and replaces them with out of date files.

It was deleted because Slapbone tried to make some quotes seem like SD was attacking people and TPF and really made no sense. It was a good deletion as that thread was going nowhere. The behavior of the individuals involved is not a reflection on the professionalism of the developers, moreso the passionate nature of these games I believe.

I would still stand by the logic of closing the thread, perhaps with a comment by the person closing it. Now, you create an air of suspicion about what was in the thread. My imagination is probably making them look even worse then what was actually in the thread. |

Nah....your imagination isn't lying to you. The quotes were way off base and really negative/childish (in my opinion). Joe mentioned it in a different thread that he was not liking the direction of that forum, and slapbone admitted that it was most likely his quoting....

Sorry I wrote that as someone who got to read the whole thing. To anyone who saw the thread it was clear that Slapbone jumped all over SkyDog and he very calmly and clearly dealt with the insanity.

Dola--I'm guessing the above thread will get deleted very soon. It was also started by our man Jason K. Here goes...

Actually, that would probably be topped by having developers & beta testers engage each other in open warfare on their own message boards.

Heck, once the holidays are over, I might just un-ban Jason K. The UIC factor alone might be worth the headaches.

Wow. Joe and Arlie have to be pleased to have Jason K and Slapbone stumping for them...its like they pumped maximus full of corn syrup and sea monkeys until he spontaneously cloned...maybe a mechanized clone army is being amassed nearby.
Or maybe I've just had waaaaay too much eggnog.

Jason K, November 17, 2003:
"Like A Fine Wine, Front Office Football Gets Better With Age. FOF is the best NFL Simulation ever made. Its king of the mountain and only gets better year in and year out. " Jason K, December 23, 2003: Fof is "stale." "FOF was innovative - 5 years ago. But the developers rested on their laurels. Now, these games are being marginalized, and the hardcore supporters don't want to accept that." Sort of says it all. |

dola.. quote from the board
Welcome! The boards will be taken down for a few moments. Please take a moment and step back, and remember that this is a place for game and sports discussion, and technical support. .400 Software Studios is very liberal in the management of these forums, and we really do want to have to start micro-managing the forums for objectionable content. The board will be back online in 20 minutes. Joe Stallings CEO .400 Software Studios I know it's a typo, but I find it hilarious that "we really DO want to have to start micro-managing the forum for objectional content" |
