I'm out for the rest of the day I think. I can't put up with this shit.

Thanks.

I seriously hope you're not implying that Matt faked the pictures of his shaved head and sutures, because if you are, that's some seriously low shit.

Fuck off. I'm out of here.

The problem is, when you start mixing fiction with pieces of reality you don't know where the fiction line begins and ends.


And I did have a different friend from a different forum (one that I had spent time on vacation with and hanging at his house) have lies exposed regarding cancer that he never had... and a parent that died from cancer... that wasn't his parent.... right after both of my parents were taken from me by cancer, so knowing that it happens I'm quick to go off when that becomes part of the narrative.
 
Isn't it interesting that a wealthy Doctor with multiple properties in multiple countries, when he isn't touring with Kiss or having his life threatening health issues miraculously cured, finds the time to troll our friendly little music forum and toss his condescending jazz snobbery down onto the rest of us plebeians.

Don't even throw any of the "I offered one of my summer cottages" shit out there.... most of us here aren't buying your catfishing bullshit anymore.

Signing off before I unload and get my ass banned today. :annoyed:

I don't want to fight.

I was born wealthy, it's not especially time-consuming. I have a Ph.D. in contemporary Irish theatre; that's a great subject to impress Internet musicians, so I can understand your incredulity. I didn't play the "doctor" card in any way, shape, or form; Mark changed my member title after I'd finished up my thesis defense. I didn't offer you use of any old summer place, I offered you use of my father's primary residence a few months after his death, which I'd inherited. My illness, I've documented and shared, from post-surgical photos to photos of chemotherapy. You're being completely ridiculous.

As for jazz snobbery... part of that's perceived and part of it is GJ persona. I have very strong opinions on music, but so do many people here. You don't take shit for posting Cookie Monster vids in every Tom Waits thread, but if I hate on something, because I'm into jazz and classical, all of a sudden I'm a pretentious snob. That's not my problem to deal with.

I don't have a dog in this fight as I don't even know anyone here that well (although I have been around long enough to know the characters) or particularly care what they fight about, but don't take it too personally, man.

I think you're a good guy. I've always thought that.
People who claim to send out private investigators over internet bullshit???...not so much.

Mark's asked for years that these petty arguments stay where they belong, in HCGJ. but the same people continue to disrespect him. i would be frustrated too.

Actually I do take it personally because most of the folks with the problems (just like the last shit up with OGG and Oscar) are people I've met in person and or have been online friends with for at least half a decade they and obviously don't have the common decency to not start shit here in my forum. I lost a lot of traffic after the last "issue" and this week I just started seeing some of those folks come back and visit if not post. And what do they see? This bullshit again.

So yeah, with the time and money I've put into the site as a whole I am taking it personally even if I shouldn't.

I can appreciate that and I'm sorry that you've had bad experiences, but we've shared forums for at least 10 years now, and I can't imagine when I could have been anything other than myself or inconsistent in discussing my life, because what I share is what's going on from day-to-day.

So I'm frustrated when friends throw me under the bus on account of a totally baseless accusation that OGG fabricated and was then totally unable/"unwilling" to back up, that came in the same breath as his alleging to have done what he could to stunt Oscar's career.

I'd have liked to have given contrary evidence, but I was obviously reluctant to provide personal info given how OGG had just claimed to have used personal info against Oscar.

If the cancer thing is bothering you, it's 2 minutes for me to PM photos of chemotherapy orders to a 3rd-party forumite who can confirm their legitimacy for you. I don't feel comfortable making them entirely public after what happened last month. Take it or leave it, that's an olive branch.

I have always thought that people that go on forums to troll, cause drama and to be shit disturbers must be really pathitec losers in their day to day life! I mean really if the most joy you get in your day is to see how much you can get under other peoples skin online it is time for you to get a real life. I just see these kind of people sitting at home by themselves saying yes I am the man I just got that guy all worked up and made him look like a tool in front of all these other people. When really all they need to do is take a good look in the mirror to see the biggest tool out there.
 
Thread lockage long overdue. Air out personal shit in PMs if necessary, Mark kindly asked to take the internet drama elsewhere. I personally don't want to see Flamencology or OGG or anybody else leave but do what you gotta do, just respect Mark's wishes in the process since he pays to keep the lights on.
 
This thread has been unlocked at Flamencologys request. It will be relocked and ill just start banning people if they can't be civil. I don't care who it is, either. I have zero patience for this.
