So...

[swarm]

I got banned from wrestlecrap today. Still got it.

[tombraider]

for what ?

[JamieOD]

For constant Samoa Joe bashing?

[gatekeeper]

Awesome!

[Aquinas]

I wouldn't worry about it either. The guy was obviously, shall we say, "unhinged".

That's some of that vaunted 'tolerance' that we're preached at about.

[tombraider]

some people.

[swarm]

This one guy got all defensive that I didn't have a problem with the word "gay" (as in calling things gay) in a thread about this subject I didn't even start.

So he is blowing up my PM box but refuses to read my responses which were basically me telling him to leave me alone and that i didn't care about his life ...this goes on for about an hour. So finally after sending me about 12 hate filled PM's and opening none of mine I copy his latest PM to me in the thread and tell him I'm entitled to my opinion just like he is and to stop PM'ing me and to [censored] off.

So a mod tells me that is strike two. (Strike one was bypassing the swear filter I guess I don't know).

So I PM the mod back and ask him what am I supposed to do if this guy is harassing me and he ignores me.

So the first guy keeps PM'ing me calling me insensitive and all this stuff about his gay uncle died from aids and how somehow my insensitive nature contributed to his death (yeah I know...)

so I pm him back and the title said "Not my fault your uncle was a gay-ass stop pm'ing me" and I got banned.

I'm not really worried about it.

best part is...over there half the board calls Cena and Lashley "gay" among many other things which apparently is fine...but God forbid you say something bad about Tommy Dreamer, Paul London or Jamie Noble and all hell breaks loose.

I basically went there to promote COTGOnline (in my sig) and could barely tolerate the place. I made a few friends but for the most part the place is filled with idiot kids who started watching wrestling 5 years ago.

To be honest I'm surprised I made it as long as I did.

If you convinced even one person there to buy COTGOnline, then I suppose it was worth it.

But otherwise, sounds like a bunch of hypocritical tools.

And there are people in 2007 who defend Tommy Dreamer?

[tombraider]

well welcome back swarm.

Are you kidding me? They treat him like GOD over there...

basically it works like this...if it's WWE or anything Vince related it's TEH SUXOR!

If it's Chikara or ROH or old ECW it's TEH RULEZ!!!!

Oh and half the board is still honoring Benoit with R.I.P. sigs and think Kevin Sullivan did it.

I feel like I was kicked off of The Real World.

Wow, I give you credit for lasting that long in such a hive of idiocy and delusion.

I like Chikara...

It wasn't easy. I actually got warned for "trolling" once by a mod because "no one can like John Cena that much so knock it off."

This was in response to a thread where people were freaking out that Cena broke Bret Hart's longest title reign or something and I said Cena > Hart.

Totally serious.

[Aquinas]

I'll never truly understand why, but your love for John Cena is genuine.

And furthermore, apparently love for Cena is bad, but having the hots for Tommy Dreamer is good? Or glorifying a murderer?

Weird. I'll just chalk it up to there being all kinds of people in the world.

I just think he is a great wrestler (one of the best ever), performer and really, really good for the business. I'm not sick of him at all. Plus I love watching people freak out when he wins.

[Aquinas]

Well I don't begrudge you that. Some of my favorite wrestlers probably make some people scratch their heads. The William Regals, the Booker T's, the Finlays.

I'm with you on the last two of those three things, but I can't really call him a "great wrestler" yet. With time to develop he could reach that greatness, maybe, but not right now.

It's funny they would ban Swarm for what they did, because I got into some arguments with members and mods alike about a year and a half ago over people constantly referring to John Cena as a "wigger."

Apparently only a few of the people could find the racism in the word. Most of them said I was stirring things up for no reason.

The majority of the people on that board are idiots. I'm not saying that because I disagree with most of their opinions, either. It's funny, but all a person has to do to shut down a thread is make a well-written, well-thought out post. Once you show you have writing skills higher than a third-grader, it's a wrap for the conversation.

So Irish Brat would fit right in.
