Locked out

Post by richardabshire »

My response is there is too little time in life to hate and not enough time to shred. I had a much longer and better post but its lost somewhere in Modified. My last post about this thread of No hands sums up my views. This got way out of hand very quick. Buy an Abshire bag today. I thought I would plug my bags since that thread is getting about 10000 views an hour. Peace to all and lets have fun out there. Richard Abshire

Hahaha, you should just put it in your signature like some other guys on this forum. :D

Did you try clicking 'back' after it said you couldn't submit your post? That works using Safari without erasing everything you've written.

Hey Richard, if your using windows, you can use this same feature with Opera and also Firefox? (I'm not sure about firefox)
Sorry if I caused you to lose your post! I hate when that happens.
You are right about that topic flying off the handle.

"Yeah I killed someone with a trident!"
"Yes I've been meaning to talk to you about that brick...."

Much respect to you Richie (and Jason).

Never once did I address Damon personally during the "No Hands" thread, until he started calling me out personally.

At no time did I provoke him to write what he did in his PM to me.

In my last PM to him I basically told him I considered him a friend regardless of what he wrote...and that I dont take this shit seriously.

Posting his PM wasnt uncalled for....what he said in it was.

Censorship sucks.

That is right I want to read this- we are adults and not 10 years childs who want a new lolly of their parents.

Ask Damaon if it is okay to post it and if it so than go on .

Moreover I cannot think of any reason to post a pm on the public board without the permission of the author?!

What is up here?


We have the mod who act like the big bro.
We have Flamon Damon who insults others via pm.
We have Peter Irish who post private stuff on a public board .

Please clear this shit

Thank god I'm not the only one. Anyone who can go absoultly bonkers and threaten the health and lives of anyone he thinks he can "take" just because someone says "its better not to use your hands" has severe mental problems far beyond this forum. It was a wacky read from a true wacko.
And frankly there was nothing private about it. He threatened many more people than just pete and called out anyone who disagreed with him. If I send a private message to a government building that I'm going to blow it up, do you think it would stay private???

What the hell? I shot you in private! Don't go calling the hospital, that's rude!

When you say something to someone, you gotta be prepared to live with the consequences. They have as much right to talk to people as you do.

ANY email message can be publicly broadcasted, so censor yourself before you send such emails. How many of you have forwarded messages w/out checking with the original author?

My decision to post Damon's PM was between me and Damon, not the moderators. I told Damon that if he's ready to launch an unwarranted personal attack on me he should be prepared to own it, so I posted his comments. Those comments included attacks on other people who were a part of the discussion, as well as those who werent--such as Kenny Shults of all people. And I dont put up with people bashing Shults. Damon was not censored when he told me to suck dick, and he's written worse than he did in that PM in public, so why censor my post? I take responsibility for posting it--that should be enough. Like DoctorJay said, we are not 10 year olds here. Censorship is bullshit.

Just to let everyone know, there's been no discussion of this by the mods/admins since we've all been gone/out/etc. At this point, everything that has been done has been solely of Nic's doing.

Censorship sucks.

We are mostly an adult crowd, and some of us have a history of flying off the handle. I think we are all able to own what we write and live free.

I'm not seeing Peter attacking anybody . . . :?
A good way to think about the original topic of this conversation--and to realize it's absurdity-- is to simply imagine it in the context of a simple hack circle. Gee, that would be fun....everyone catches the pass coming to them and throws it back up and kicks it to the next person.

Ellis is not trying to throw down "rules", he's bringing up a phenomenon that anyone who has pushed themselves as hard as he has has a right to be offended by. That shit is weak. If you cant kick a hand toss from someone else in the circle, yet you are trying 4 and 5 add moves, you may want to consider going back and working on your basics.
Not only that, it's just sloppy. It looks bad. But hey, if that's how you want to play, enjoy.


I think this is where Peter joined the convo, and it was far from a personal attack on your way of life . . ..

Sigh.....
I thought we were through with this Damon. I'm trying to be cool about it. Like I said a million times now I hold no grudges. I'm over this. This is junior high school bullshit.


>"You tried to bully me Pete publically using your name as your argument"

Using my name as my argument?? What the fuck do you expect me to do, use another name? Bully you? You sound like a fucking baby. You are the one who called me out to begin with Damon. I dont launch personal attacks on forums for no reason. But if you attack me, you should expect a response.

>"You can't slap me and then say sorry, then slap me again"

I never said i was sorry, nor do I now. The mods PM'd me offering to repost the PM, and I told them not too. Maybe I'll reconsider.

Just out of curiosity, why did you have to PM me to say the shit that you said? If you're gonna bust me for NO GOOD REASON at least have the balls to do it in public.

>"I don't like Kenny, lots of people know that, I have voiced that many >times. His logic is flawed by tradition and he is one of the sloppier players"

Who the fuck are YOU to be judging anyone's logic, or criticizing anyone's style to begin with?

Let me end with 2 things. #1. had you been inducted into BAP back a million years ago, you would undoubtedly be, to this day, one of it's biggest supporters. I dont doubt that for a second.
#2 Talking smack publicly and having someone else back it up (aka Richie and Jason) is pretty fucking weak.

I'm done with this.
