AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
Things were said and done on AO that shouldn't have been today. No names will be shot out, the only message of this is for people to stop caring about what others think or do on AO and just play paintball the way it is meant to be.
In everyone elses defense if that was the case you would have never started your cause to get you Dad a viking. I still say it was a little shady of how you handled it from the onset. Though i believe it was quite a noble thing for you to do there are just some things that dont add up.
this is based on you letting everyone know your father was / is in Iraq.
You asked for donations to raise the money to get the viking, which you got, though not an enormous amount it was money none the less that you did not have to borrow and or work for at the time.
You received a generous gift of custom grips that someone built out of the kindness of their heart and their time and expense due to the let me get my dad a nice gift on his return from war.
A person from PBN sold you a viking at an unbelievable deal based on your story and, yes you thanked him publiclyon this forumn.
this is where it got gray for me:
Your mom bought him a brand new truck, for what was spent a little kicker on top could have got the gun without coming here.
You mentioned at one time of getting the kitchen remodeled, another added expense.
If these expenditures are coming in why bother even asking anyone on this forumn, it appeared to me financially your family could have footed the bill just fine.
You were lucky enough to get some money fronted to you from another member on this board and now you have in your possession 3 vikings.
then you sold your computer for 1400 dollars but that is okay cause according to your deleted thread your family had 2 computers and 2 laptops at the time of asking for donations
From where i stand you nver needed to ask for anyones assitance on this board at all and still seems fishy.
i am sure you have rational reasonings behind it, but still sems gray.
Maybe you could try to talk ot him on AIM. And for the record, I have no doubt at all he is telling the truth.
Thats not what got him banned but... I am willing to listen. But his ban was not for that... I make no judgements on that part of it. His ban was for flaming. However the member he flamed may have deserved it. So a bigger ban was issued for that repetitive disruptive rules breaking.
But he can email me. I am always willing to listen and reverse an action if its in the best interest of the site. depends on the demeanor of the member.
AGD, where we are so good we can do it with only ONE tube!
In my mind he was just defending himself. I am greatful however that the attacker got a bigger punishment
Two wrongs do not make a right.
Report the thread and sit back and let us take care of it. Take matters into your own hands and get slapped.... Its all a matter of choices and self control.
