Has Howard actually said anything regarding being put on the ignore list?

Douglas Johnson41 said:Has Hogar weighed in about getting put on the ignore list?

He actually reached out—he's pretty shaken up by the whole thing, honestly. To the point where he’s planning to just block everyone. Like, everything.

Douglas Johnson41 said:Has Hogar actually commented on being put on ignore?

I have one unread DM in my inbox. I'll check it tomorrow...
But yes, there's a chance our colleague Hogar decided to weigh in on the matter.

If he hasn't reached out to me personally, then I suppose international arbitration is our only recourse.

Some off-topic news:
Rumors are swirling that our esteemed friend Hogar is finally starting to recover his nerves. As a very good friend who was ignored by him, I can only say this regarding those rumors:
It’s a shame he waited until the absolute last second to make his move...
...which, frankly, just proves how much he struggled with making the only choice he felt he had left...

James Chavez91 said:He reached out. He's clearly shaken by the whole situation—distressed enough that he’s actually going to follow through. Everything goes on ignore. Everything.

Give it a rest. Stop bothering people with these made-up horrors.

What if the owner loses faith and decides to sell the forum out from under us?

With how much you stick your nose into everything and butt in wherever you can, they probably should've already flagged you as some kind of highly qualified prodigy.

Alexander Thompson said:With how much you suck up to everyone and wedge yourself into every conversation, they ought to recognize you as some kind of model citizen by now.

🤣
Where exactly am I "wedging" myself?
I wrote some praise for the moderators on a different thread; I don't see that as brown-nosing, just a straightforward compliment.
Think about how many posts they've wiped from my account because I started threads and such.
What exactly is the alternative here if I want to avoid being labeled a sycophant?
Should I be collecting bans and warnings instead?

I started this thread. 28.07.2021., 00:26

Danijel Popović - čkalj is singing.
'I was naive, head over heels, and young.'

Hogar's version and mine could look something like this:
'I was naive, hot-headed, and young.'

I’d argue that being put on ignore by Hogar was nothing more than a calculated ruse. As for Hogar himself? He's just a mindless puppet. ('t'!!!) ...in someone else's callous, grasping hands.

We're talking about much larger schemes here. Specifically, when you look at how the privatization deals are actually playing out:

Benjamin Stewart53 said:No. I’m just asking if there is any viable business model where someone from the coppersailor28 crowd buys out Reddit, commissions a total UI overhaul, and migrates everything to a faster server.

Honestly, most decent folks around here can't make head or tail of any of this anymore. 🤷

P.S.
You two are a real piece of work. @coppersailor28Garofeeder I @XmoronXIt’s obvious. Someone is likely pulling the strings on you all, too.

So you get put on ignore, then you open a new thread? 🤦

Even sillier... bringing up partial payments with a handle like that.
What's the connection between partial payments and being ignored?

Man, what this forum puts up with...

Homer?

(Come on, don't be like that. I'm not even mad at you anymore 🙂)

Douglas Johnson41 said:Did Homer weigh in on the ignore request?

Honestly? What can I even tell you at this point.
Just figure it out yourself.

The DM wasn't from him; it was just some English phishing scam. I didn't catch all the details:

'Dear coppersailor28', followed by some pathetic offer for pocket change (maybe 300 bucks in their currency) regarding a plot of land in the States (USA)...
I deleted the post. It’s not a big deal.

Howard should probably be placed under a temporary ban until this whole situation is sorted out...

Douglas Johnson41 said:we should probably just temp-ban Hogwarts until things settle down

I'm with you there. He’s become a risk—to himself and everyone else, really. Just a total mess lately.

Maybe we should just put Attila the Hun in temporary isolation until he finally agrees to sit down for a reconciliation date with Adelona.

While you all waste time messing around, I’ve engineered a rather clever little operation to lure Hogan out of his cave. The plan is as follows:

1.) - I need one of Hogan's posts;
2.) - I'll quote that post, but instead of using '@coppersailor28', I'll log in via one of my burner accounts;

Pay attention now:
3.) - In my reply to Hogan, I'll pose as @coppersailor28's (meaning my own) enemy;

I've already picked a post, even if it is a bit dated (05/13/2021) - finding anything from Hogan after 07/27/2021 is basically a suicide mission:
there are maybe five posts total (if that), and they all read like they were written by a dying soldier in a trench... Completely useless.

1.) - Selected post:
Guys' Corner, topic 'The worst thing you can see at a woman's...??' page 153, post #3046

Attila the Hun said:For me, it was when the city water lines were rerouted through our street; since that day, there's been no scent or taste left in that pussy. 🙂

2.) - At this stage, I quote the above post;

3.) - Logging in as '@x' for example (I won't name the handle here—not unless I want Hogan to hunt me down if he happens to be reading this) I'll respond like this:

"My dear colleague and friend, I haven't had any scent or taste from that pussy for a long time either. 🙂
But who knows, maybe some people enjoy sniffing and licking it—that loser @coppersailor28 for instance, hahahaha... mwahahaha... wheeze wheeze... khhhhaaaa hahahaha... hrrk... ...ouch!

Best, Stephen"

Then we'll immediately see which side of the fence Hogan is on.

If he replies
"Yes, yes, you're right, hahahaha... mwahahaha... wheeze wheeze... khhhhaaaa hahahaha... hrrk... ...ouch!"

...then he's clearly under the influence of unclean demons.

But if he replies
"Flee from here, you evil creature, before I report your post!"

...then there's still hope for him.

(I'll wait until approximately 7:00 PM to pull the trigger)

The operation wasn't exactly a home run. 🙈

😠 And I'm certainly not buying this narrative about some massive, interconnected hacker syndicate.

Lock Temu up and toss the key into the Mississippi River.

James Chavez91 said:I’m with you. He’s become a liability to himself and everyone else. Total loose cannon.

Wrong.
I need to go hit some heavy bags at the local gym to blow off steam.

That's the only logical move here.

🙂

Sam Alvarez4 said:So someone puts you on ignore, and your reaction is to start a whole new thread? 🤦

That’s even stupider. And mentioning partials alongside that username?
What does being on an ignore list have to do with partials?

Man, this forum really takes a beating sometimes.

I was literally just about to type that.

Honestly, some of these users are straight-up terrorizing people by posting lists of who they've ignored.

Who actually gives a damn if some random user has half the forum on their block list? Nobody cares.

Joseph Allen71 said:Wrong.

I know you feel guilty about it, so I’ll forgive you for ignoring me for three days straight.🙂

Honestly, at the end of the day, all a person really wants is a hug and a kind word.

Joseph Allen71 said:I need to kick some serious ass regarding the Policy for CIA.

It’s honestly the only logical way forward.
