Who misses Aaron?

I do. I think it's a shame that he's no longer part of this site. Thinking like my list-making brother I'd say that he's among the top 5 most notable and well-known posters on these message boards. I found what he had to say humorous, witty, intelligent and most of all important and worthy of inclusion.

It seems like the deletion of his account was totally unnecessary. If he was supposedly violating the rules by having the occasional quip with Nep2nes or whoever, I've seen others do the same thing without being called on it. I think she enjoyed the fun fighting just as much as he did or else she wouldn't constantly throw it back at him.

Is this site going to become an exclusive, members-only clique like the npgmc with excessive rules and flaws? Are favorites being chosen? I'm not making any formal accusations, just trying to get some open discussion going. Shouldn't the members have something to say about such policies since we must abide by them? Or should we all shut up and take what's given to us?

Nothing has been done to me personally but Aaron is a great friend and I just think it sucks that he's gone. Please post your comments, questions and concerns here. I know I'm not the only one who misses his presence along with countless others who have been let down by this "community" site. Speak your mind...

I agree with TRON, i think Matt should right now delete my account and all 50 posts i have made.

I totally suck and NO ONE should have to tolerate my mindless ramblings.

wink biggrin

You should ask the other orgers if an account should be deleted.You say you do it for other orgers.Maybe you should ask them.I think aaron was a positive for the org.

Aaron's account hasn't been deleted. If it has, I guess profiles can still be seen.

First of all, honey - shouldn't this be posted in the site discussion forum? Having this thread here don't bother me none, but just for the sake of keeping everything in line, if we are going to talk about someone getting an account deleted, that sure sound like site discussion to me.

Second, I miss a lot of people who flocked up out of here over the past few months. I been lurking before I started opening my wide mouth and I had favorites and they gone. Aaron's the latest one, and child it's a dirty shame.

But like I say before, sometimes you gotta chase the old dogs off to keep the new pups in line. New org, new rules, new people joining who don't know the difference, and a new moderator who help put the new rules together. You think they want old dogs lazing around influencing the new pups to act all old skool crazy? Honey, think it over. I ain't saying it's wrong - it just kinda sad.

I think Aaron behavior got a little bit too extreme but I also think he been provoked a little too. I don't know all the whys and wheres and whutfors and I don't wanna know, but it seems like another situation of people sticking out they chests and saying "oh YEAH, sucka? oh YEAH??"

Same old song and dance. Boys will be boys. Sure Aaron should lighten up. Moderators also need to lighten up. Don't take the bait so much. Be bigger! Show us why you moderators and we ain't!

Maybe we DO need a pussy control female moderatrix up in here, considering all the problems seem to be between the menziss.

Finally - is Sage a drag queen? Her hands awful big. Make mines look dainty! Have mercy!

Moi too... since his account hasn't been deleted, it seems there's an intention or atleast an opening to reactivate it, and hopefully this will happen soon.

Good to see someone else is back though, yes you Tre wink

I think we should all pitch in and buy Aaron a tattoo of a locked thread icon as a going away present. Don't you think he'd look good with a little padlocked folder on his ankle? Or maybe even on his backside? Have mercy!

Aaron's account has been de-activated for breaking the "rules". He has been a naughty boy, matt spanked him and told him to go sit in the corner. He doesn't play well with others.

There was one September day, when ian worked too hard
first he crucified every orger, out in the yard
then he screamed at Aaron twice, for throwing words in flaming wars


SMACK

Oooo ian

This has been discussed at great length already in other threads, so I'm cutting it short here and now.

It has already been explained why Aaron was suspended from the site, and it wasn't just for "minor infractions of the rules" or the "occasional argument with Nep2nes" or whatever. You guys weren't the people having to deal with the moderation issues arising from his behaviour each day - I was, and Matt and Ben were too. Ultimately, he was taking up too much of our time and abusing the facilities of the site. We made a decision, and that decision was ours to make.

He might be a lovely guy, and he might be your best friend, but he acted like a complete dick on this site and it was right to boot him off.
