Two weeks after "the decision"

The first week of banishment went well.
While I was busy with work, I didn't really see anything on the boards about it and it was slipping my mind.  Imagine my surprise when I got home and I found that my banishment had been disregarded.  Once again, a putrid show of ignorance coated in entitlement finds it way onto my board.  I promptly disable this account.  Again on Saturday this is disregarded.  Finally on Sunday when he should have been preparing to actually have something to say on his radio show he was lamely creating accounts on Knobbe.org.

How can anyone be so entitled...so obtuse?  The ironic part is that having his own forum and radio show to speak about such injustices is that his own message board would give him a warning for that and his co-host probably refuses to let him talk about a subject matter which is if nothing else interesting.

Since no good deed goes unpunished his signature was completely removed and then it was relinked just for kicks.

TDO - HE KNOWS DRAMA

I have asked this guy to not communicate with me.
He decided to pop into my public chat room and "end things", not realizing that the best way to end things would simply be to not talk to me about ending things.

As follows, unedited, per usual.


(2010.08.20 - 15:33:17) ChatBot: TDO logs into the Chat.
(2010.08.20 - 15:37:14) TDO: matt time to let it go
(2010.08.20 - 15:39:54) averagetsbplayer: Gary, I think what you're doing right now is called "trolling"
(2010.08.20 - 15:40:15) averagetsbplayer: In this case, it appears to be in an attempt to start/continue a "flame war"
(2010.08.20 - 15:40:21) TDO: just a "comment" not why i came in here, waiting for someone
(2010.08.20 - 15:40:36) TDO: i'm responding to his "latest antic at PT,
(2010.08.20 - 15:42:32) TDO: funny i saw 1 thing, while i wait for someone, yet he can start drama all he wants
(2010.08.20 - 15:48:36) Rod_Woodson: what is going on TNT
(2010.08.20 - 15:53:51) Rod_Woodson: Overpowering Administrators? I guess that makes me the asshole, huh
(2010.08.20 - 15:54:30) TDO: no you just like to continue to bring up drama thats unnecessary
(2010.08.20 - 15:55:29) Rod_Woodson: like putting together a new front page and stating you don't have "overpowering administrators"
(2010.08.20 - 15:55:37) Rod_Woodson: who does?
(2010.08.20 - 15:55:41) Rod_Woodson: explain this to me?
(2010.08.20 - 15:56:37) TDO: um we've had that on the site for a while sorry
(2010.08.20 - 15:56:42) TDO: and we dont
(2010.08.20 - 15:57:27) Rod_Woodson: you're the only tecmo community that doesn't have overpowering administrators
(2010.08.20 - 15:57:45) TDO: compared to treatment given to some at other sites yes
(2010.08.20 - 15:58:00) Rod_Woodson: could you be a bigger pussy?
(2010.08.20 - 15:58:05) Rod_Woodson: seriously
(2010.08.20 - 15:58:31) TDO: ok here we go again
(2010.08.20 - 15:58:39) Rod_Woodson: apparently drama is addressing something head on
(2010.08.20 - 15:58:47) Rod_Woodson: instead of pulling crap like this
(2010.08.20 - 15:58:50) TDO: you never want to address the drama
(2010.08.20 - 15:58:58) TDO: you just want to keep making jabs
(2010.08.20 - 15:59:19) TDO: lets end it right now in front of Tony, what do you say?
(2010.08.20 - 15:59:22) Rod_Woodson: jabs? These are full punches
(2010.08.20 - 15:59:33) TDO: they feel like soft jabs to me
(2010.08.20 - 15:59:48) TDO: end the drama right now
(2010.08.20 - 15:59:51) TDO: deal?
(2010.08.20 - 16:00:28) Rod_Woodson: could you be any more inane?
(2010.08.20 - 16:00:45) TDO: so you can't huh?
(2010.08.20 - 16:00:47) Rod_Woodson: google it
(2010.08.20 - 16:01:14) TDO: so now implying i am stupid after calling me a pussy
(2010.08.20 - 16:01:16) TDO: hmmm
(2010.08.20 - 16:01:23) Rod_Woodson: i love how you always want me to agree to something completely fucking vague so you can prepare to rub my face it it
(2010.08.20 - 16:01:24) TDO: yeah i'm the issue huh
(2010.08.20 - 16:01:41) Rod_Woodson: pretty much
(2010.08.20 - 16:01:50) TDO: lol
(2010.08.20 - 16:02:10) TDO: so you want to keep the pettines going basically when i dont want to?
(2010.08.20 - 16:02:15) Rod_Woodson: if you don't think that the rhetoric you put up IS drama, then yes, you are stupid
(2010.08.20 - 16:02:28) TDO: its been up since march
(2010.08.20 - 16:02:39) TDO: so who's trying to stir up crap because he's bored
(2010.08.20 - 16:03:01) TDO: no different than "the major leagues of tecmo"

(2010.08.20 - 16:03:09) TDO: let it go
(2010.08.20 - 16:03:17) Rod_Woodson: "Do we really need 3 different groups for nflpicker in online tecmo? no but conflict makes it necessary, plus i've already won the repository and puretecmo groups."
(2010.08.20 - 16:03:30) TDO: yeah mrtsb won't let me in the PT
(2010.08.20 - 16:03:35) TDO: not conflict by me
(2010.08.20 - 16:04:07) TDO: continue to construe things to fit your ideas, when they arent
(2010.08.20 - 16:04:09) Rod_Woodson: that wasn't petty of you at all to note that

(2010.08.20 - 16:07:20) Rod_Woodson: if you moderated, then people might perceive you as a bad guy
(2010.08.20 - 16:07:30) Rod_Woodson: we wouldn't want that

-------------------

Yes, I am being a dick.
I don't appreciate the once again misguided attempts to rope me into a vague agreement that I am not allowed to do anything that he would not want me to do while he already doesn't do anything that HE doesn't want to do. It's the reason he is a coward. Calling him a pussy pretty much lets him know EXACTLY how I am feeling.

P.S. What's the weather like? Really? What an asshole!

New Host

Given my recent website uptime trouble, I've decided I need to take it up a notch with my hosting. Currently I have shared hosting with jaguarpc.com and until about a year ago had little to complain about. The issues have been both the host and myself which means that I will keep them in the running for my higher $$ service.

Besides myself, I host a couple of other's Tecmo sites. I do so for free because I want them to succeed and if abandoned, they will at least remain as an archive. If I can find a couple of non-tecmo people to resell to I believe that this plus the addition of revenue of some fairly unobtrusive ads to the site (if ESPN can do it, so can I!) will help me to run knobbe.org at a break even instead of an annual financial loss.

So far in the running

JaguarPC
Arvixe
Dreamhost

I'm looking for someone that will offer reseller services to make reselling a possibility

April? What happened to March?

Hey,

Just taking a break from learning some Visual Basic.Net. I know I should be learning C# or something like that, but I'd rather crawl on hands and knees instead of just pulling myself with my hands.

I was really blown away by that Madison Tecmo Tourney. It really gives me something to emulate should I get one going in Lincoln again. The two big things would be date and who I could get to help me. Running a tournament by yourself is doable in small scale but is a bitch large scale.

I've been talking a lot with Maynard lately. It really helps to talk with someone about the big picture of where the site(s) might go. While I do have ideas, the framework to connect these ideas are important as well.

Watch live video from Husker Basketball on Justin.tv

Let it be known that David F Murray is awesome

One day, I'll explain why.

Tecmo Player Map

There are a lot of people out there who often times make you sign up to get the good stuff on their site.  I find this to be utterly pointless which is why I don't make people do that for my download section.  On the flip side, there are often times people who lurk on your site that do not have a compelling reason to create an account.  Finally, I have that actual compelling reason.

The Perils of Conversing

Please be aware that the following conversation could

1.  Make your head explode.
2.  Give you syphilis
3.  Create temporary blindness.

I thought about commenting on the conversation, but halfway through I blacked out, busted open my skull, and woke up in a pool of blood.  Thus, loyal reader, you are on your own.  Enjoy?

(5:35:37 PM) buckfuttor: I don't really care where this system is hosted
(5:35:39 PM) GorillaBrav: Until you come clean about all of it i will talk to you in wisconsin not over aim or forums
(5:35:56 PM) buckfuttor: having it hosted on tecmoworld would be fine
(5:36:07 PM) buckfuttor: or on turd's system
(5:36:15 PM) buckfuttor: where ever
(5:38:31 PM) buckfuttor: if you change your mind, I'll still be down
(5:39:23 PM) GorillaBrav: You should come clean for your sake now do you really think people are going to sympathize wit you?
(5:39:56 PM) buckfuttor: give me something specific to come clean about and i'd be more than happy to
(5:40:44 PM) GorillaBrav: How about the trash and lies you talk on aim about for a start?

(5:44:18 PM) buckfuttor: can you give me a specific person to go through my chat logs?
(5:45:24 PM) GorillaBrav: I dont want to list all the names but just think what people are going to think of you when it all is out in the open
(5:46:29 PM) buckfuttor: given that I retain to right to have opinions about people doesn't me they can't have one, favorable or non-favorable about me
(5:47:21 PM) buckfuttor: i don't do what i do for the purpose of liking nor disliking me
(5:47:42 PM) GorillaBrav: Right but how pathetic is blatant lies to make yourself favorable look. Are you in 2nd grade? Spreading lies is immature
(5:47:52 PM) buckfuttor: i'm just some guy from nebraska who runs a tecmo bowl forum
(5:48:46 PM) GorillaBrav: And i guy who has a big ego. You ll have an empty site soon. No one likes liars
(5:49:23 PM) buckfuttor: If that is my fate, then so be it
(5:49:42 PM) buckfuttor: regardless, I still think the single phile system is worth pursuing
(5:49:46 PM) GorillaBrav: How pathetic is it to try and run everything and lying to try and lie to do so

OH SHIT!!! NOT AGAIN!!! ugly2.gif ugly2.gif

The owner of NeonTecmoClearWorld.us.affiliation is a little sore at me for asking a league to move to Puretecmo.com

One month ago, I would have responded to his inane ramblings at least 5 times by now.
I mean, look at this statement:

Angry Message board owner:  The difference about MTL moving to TW from PT was zach asked me I have never approached anyone about moving a league from a different board to TW. I find it very bush league and you have openly admitted to having done this more than once now. 

I guess I mistook the peace agreement. It's only intended on the message boards. One can still lie and manipulate and be underhanded. You go ahead and keep being that guy.

If not pointing out the fact that he just called me a proverbial "Jumbo Shrimp" on that board isn't change, then I don't know what is.




The MeatSpin Tecmo League

The funny thing is that said owner doesn't really care for the "MeatSpin" Tecmo League at all.
In fact, it's the moderation or constant threat of moderation that was the main reason for it to move BACK in the first place.

This is a classic example of why two league message boards are necessary:  It's extremely tough for a message board that runs something that is competitive by nature to cater to everyone.  If there were not a Puretecmo and a NeonTecmoClearWorld, someone would eventually create the other one at some point.

Face Lift Part II and WORLD PEACE

One thing a guy has to realize is that changing the way a site is laid out can have some big side effects.
One thing I can do with Joomla is take a site and basically put the header over the top.  This way a guy doesn't have to worry about navigation/integration, it just works out for you.  However, phpBB already comes with a header and you either need to mod this thing or chop it off.  Here we just chop it off and integrate it under Joomla

Pretty Awesome!!!!!

However, 3 big problems

1.  The cost of this power is completely re-writing the URL for the board.  This means that while the old links would re-direct properly, any new ones would be dependent on always having Joomla.  That puts baby in a corner.

2.  You need to not only generate the phpBB stuff, but also the Joomla stuff.  That's a heck of a lot more processing.

3.  This completely kills a mobile theme

Thus, the solution is making a header that looks like Joomla.  While you fix all those problems, you are then left with having to update your links twice every time you change the layout.  Thus, hopefully I don't change shit around all the time.

Finally, peace on earth.

I finally received my answer 4 months later

Peace was brokered

Given all I was looking for was an answer and to not be over-moderated, looks like I hit the jackpot.
