What a No-Count move trying to get HCP fired and whining to the mods. Don't know either one personally but pretty classless. I hope HCP rethinks his decision and continues posting.
Think about this for a minute Minstrel. If this was my real name, don't you think certain people would have tried to lash out at me?
To be honest, if many of your employers read this board, knew you posted here, and hadn't even seen any post attributable directly to you all..... I'd expect any and all of you to be canned. This is a filthy and dangerous place to be.

Good thing I’m not employed..................
I returned to the forum today to express condolences about Halimon, Pip's son, (and now Riverman's brother.) This thread, however, snared me like quicksand. 1) If someone actually tried to get HCP fired over what he posts here, I sincerely hope they go die in a ditch. 1A) If Orion says it wasn't him, I would give him the benefit of the doubt. 2) Anybody who takes HCP's postings here as malicious are just being silly. 3) As for the specific post in question, I think HCP was wrong. If people can foam at the mouth, then they still care. The opposite of love isn't hate - it is indifference. That's me. I can no longer give a damn about this perpetually-wallowing-in-mediocrity franchise. Maybe some day they can win me back, but it grows less likely as time goes by. Bye.
If you don't leave HCP alone you will get increasing longer vacations from the forum. The same thing goes for HCP. I have addressed this. I've talked to you and HCP in private. I've tried to get you guys to try and patch things up at Meet and Greets. I haven't dismissed anything. Lot's of people in this forum post to instigate drama, including you and me. Yes, you are 100% correct. All of this is my fault. I have tried and failed multiple times to end all of this. Come on, you've made entire threads on this forum bashing people. Do you remember your problems with Cup? Boob No More? But more importantly, I've told you before, instead of replying just either flag the post or PM staff. Let us handle it. But you get upset and go after people. You're not the only one who does this, I'll see someone insult someone else, then that person insults them back and then flags the original insult. If a drunk driver hits a drunk driver they're both at fault for being drunk drivers. No one is asking you to take all the blame. I'll take it. Yes, you have apologized. Then you've retracted your apology. Then you've claimed this never happened and is all some giant conspiracy by HCP and the mods. Then you've apologized again. And finally tried to justify why someone would write his employer. Come on, you've been all over the map on this. We have done this. With both of you. It has not worked with either of you. Awesome! Thank you, I do think it is for the best if both of you do this. I'm not sure what you wanted me to say. You were upset and your posts contained personal insults that I was editing out. If you can't acknowledge or remember what you had posted just minutes before there really isn't much of anything for me to say. Instead of continuing the argument or starting a new one I thought it was best to just leave you alone. I have done this in the past with you and it's worked very well. I've said this many times publicly, privately, by phone, and in person. I like you. I think your a great guy and a huge Blazer fan! I should get you and Mrs PokerDog together so you can both discuss your disappointments with me. Thanks, I did! We all need to try and give each other more respect around here because we all deserve it.
I'm so sorry to hear about your brother. If he was half as good of a man as you are I'm sure there are many grieving over his passing. RIP
I have always treated this place as a community instead of just one more internet message board. We meet up in person. Many of us have made lasting friendships outside of the forum. @Orion Bailey is a hell of a good guy most of the time in the forum and every time I've had the pleasure of interacting with him outside of the forum. He attends forum get-togethers and events. Has even hosted get-togethers in his home. He is a huge fan that loves the team. I'm going to try everything I can think of to try and end the problems instead of ending the person. I admit I have completely failed. Failed so badly that now in a forum first, that makes me very nervous, instituting a rule that only applies to two people in the forum. That's very dangerous. That has the possibility of others demanding special rules that only apply to one or two people. OB continually demands special rules that only apply to one person. The personal insult rule is fairly easy to understand, to explain, and to enforce. How do you come up with a rule that says no joking or teasing or whatever the complaint is if at the moment it happens someone else doesn't like it? I firmly believe that when it comes to rules fewer is better for members and staff. What is going on between HCP and OB isn't a breaking-the-rule problem. It's a both just need to realize that and leave each other alone problem.
