You certainly were one of the posters he had problems with. No question there.Admitted he and the other dude joked around about doing it. Made this "funny plan" to get me. Claimed he didn't actually do it. Yet it happened to me TWICE!
He had problems with anybody who disagreed with him. Especially if they had evidence his stance was harmful.You certainly were one of the posters he had problems with. No question there.
It depends on if they use the Hammer!
I don't condone anyone going after anyone's livelihood. That's never ok.
Here is what is known. For those who you who don't know the beef, The HCP used to have a shtick. He would "haze" newcomers pretending to bully them, calling them rooks, and messing with them. Several posters took this personal. A few may have even left because of it.
OB and Bodyman both now banned, were two who took it personal. They felt they were being bullied, they saw others they felt were being bullied.
Bodyman came up with a very ill gotten joke to get HCP back. OB went along with it. They would tell him in the forum and it send him a PM telling him that they sent an email to his bosses at the Blazers about it.
Someone actually did it. OB has denied he actually did it. He has sworn up and down it was not him who actually wrote an email and sent it.
I have reason to believe it was someone else who is no longer here.
Anyway that is the origin of the beef between OB and HCP and OB and the Mods. That HCP was "hazing" newcomers and the mods were supposedly allowing it.
I have spent a lot of time hanging out with OB. I have helped him move, went to S2 get togethers at his house, saw his band play at several bars, went to Blazers games with him. I have seen in him nothing but a kind friendly dude outside of this forum.
I don't agree with his joke. It's terrible it became reality and threatened HCPs livelihood. Again, I don't condone that. Even if he didn't actually do it, he does bare responsibility for it because he went along with Bodys joke.
Seems like you are whitewashing HCP's role and the Mods roles quite a bit, as he has called several posters here RACISTS, myself included, and never been held accountable.
Nothing I have seen from OB approaches anything that vile.

I 2nd that motion.
When I recently went at it with a few people in here claiming that I had been call a racist (among other inappropriate labels), it was HCP I particularly had in mind. Others have, too, (dviss and a few more), but, without naming names, it was mainly HCP I was alluding to in that moment.
Anyway, I said my peace, felt I had sufficiently alerted the mods, and have moved on from all of that.
Like you said, good riddance. Can't believe anybody on here would go after another and their family. Simply mind boggling.
No, you said @crandc called you a racist and I liked the post. You never said anything about HCP.
If I'm not mistaken, I said crandc called me a hater. Included with that remark, I said I've been called a hater and a racist by others in here. I was thinking of HCP in the racist category. If that confused people, and her, I apologize. crandc has never called me a racist to my knowledge.
I've been effectively called a gay and trans hater on posts that you have liked.
It's yet another thing altogether to be labeled a racist and a gay/trans hater.
Though, being called a racist, gay and/or trans hater is way over the top. And, quite frankly, ugly. As a moderator, you of all people should know that.
So, having legitimate questions means being so-called obscure and automatically necessitates being labeled a racist and/or bigot?
As a moderator, though, despite your personal beliefs on the matter(s), simply condoning someone calling me a racist and/or hater is laziness in my opinion. I'm not certain of you've liked any of those posts, but Sly certainly has. Irresponsible.
Look, again, me being called a racist and hater is offensive to me. Can I deal with it? Sure, but it's a personal insult and has no place in this forum.
my recent beef has only been as it relates to me being called a racist/hater, etc.

That said, my recent beef has only been as it relates to me being called a racist/hater, etc. I know you get that, Chris. I really do.
Hope you get a raise @Chris Craig
Me thinks sly dog is the only paid staff member.
I have no doubt OB is a fine guy in person, but going after someone's job is so over the line it's ridiculous. It's not even something to joke about.
And truly, it was weird how every thread he was in descended into a narcissistic tirade of him crying about how everyone attacks him. Every friggin time.

I can only imagine what they say about me during mod staff meetings.![]()

I agree. You don't go after someones livelihood. It's not even funny to joke about it. If you read my post it was actually Bodyman's brainchild. Bodyman came to OB with it via pm because he saw the beef between OB and HCP. OB ended up not going along with it. But, he is forever connected to it. It's one thing to suspect someone, it's another to openly accuse someone of actually doing it. OB is a passionate dude, he has fought to try and clear his name.
You're forgetting one part and it's a big one. OB did post in the forum to HCP how would you like it if someone sent these posts to your boss. And that's exactly what happened. I have no idea who sent it, so I can't accuse or defend anyone but OB did introduce the idea of going to the Blazers over what was posted in the forum.
And it has happened multiple times since.
HCP touched me in an uncomfortable manner.

This post is clique bait.OB seemed to be stuck on mod biases and cliques, and people being able to get away with insults. Even if I disagree with his conclusions on that, he was fighting against perceived wrongs.
