Its really really sad.
My post was editied after i quoted Doc nickel and other reputable sources (and then cited those sources) in discussion about the Lawsuits. He threatened to temp ban me for posting about it at all. He then proceeded to block me on one screen name and ignore me on the other. the mods tag is dasbalddog, and he has been hot headed in the past. Part of what i posted:
This is what i had posted before he edited it "Smart parts's licencing agreement that they tried to get people was an absolute joke. Yes they have filed a lawsuit against ICD mainly because they see ICD as the weakest of all the companies right now because Jerry Dobbins has had some kind of major back surgery and his daughter is running the shop. Apparently hes still recovering but is only capable sitting up in bed for about 15 minutes a day. From what I've heard they have counter filed.
This would be a lot different if it was a clear case of patent infringement but its not they are just trying to stop everyone else from making an electronic paintball gun because they are quickly losing their market share to better products, and their Impulse is not going to save them if thats what they were hoping. I nearly fell out of my chair laughing when I took one of them apart

First AIM convo:
Snowboarder Phl (3:46:59 PM): hey
DasBaldDog (3:47:05 PM): Hello
Snowboarder Phl (3:47:08 PM): just wondering why you edited my post on SO
DasBaldDog (3:47:56 PM): Because you posted negative information regarding a currently ficticious lawsuit when I have specificly mention that any posts like that well get edited.
Snowboarder Phl (3:48:23 PM): what are you talking about
Snowboarder Phl (3:48:30 PM): you are denying that sp is suing ICD?
DasBaldDog (3:48:42 PM): Not at all...
Snowboarder Phl (3:49:00 PM): you just said the lawsuit was ficticious
DasBaldDog (3:49:02 PM): I'm regarding the rest of the rumor in which you mentioned quite prominently
Snowboarder Phl (3:49:10 PM): and what was that?
DasBaldDog (3:49:31 PM): I'm not getting into this with you. I'm way to busy to piss away effort explaining this to you.
Snowboarder Phl (3:50:04 PM): well i would like you to explain it, and point out where you posted about threads having TRUE negative information about smartparts being edited
DasBaldDog (3:51:05 PM): Too bad. And like I mentioned before, no information regarding all of that, especially that which has not been proven (alot of what you posted, besdies the existance of the suit itself was hearsay) is against forum policies. If you don't like it, feel free to leave.

Second AIM convo (new screen name) after he blocked me:
Run De Rabbit (3:52:25 PM): where were these so called policies posted?
Run De Rabbit (3:52:47 PM): and blocking me is not going to make the situation rectify itself
Run De Rabbit (3:54:33 PM): ignoring me wont do much either
Run De Rabbit (3:57:14 PM): and your attitude as a moderator is disgusting
I dont know why i expected anyone over there to be nice and intelligent, but some of the people understand the magnitude of the situation. They bash AGD all the time, especially Das, and I ignore it because i know that they are just uneducated in the ways of the mag. When i post something TRUE about SP, they censor it of course.
Just thought i would let some less censoring group of educated paintball players know about this owners group.
