Our first squirrel martyr (* is an expletive deleted for our under 10 year old investors);
Well SI has terminated my account. I told Daniel to "go * himself" in
a PM, and he went and cried, and Bob sent me this.

"That was real smart of you, Rick. You couldn't just disagree with DM,
you
had to do a personal attack on him via PM. Smart.

If people are blindly following *anyone* around (let alone a 15-year
old)
and buying everything that comes out of their mouths, other people
should,
at the very least, play "devil's advocate" about it. That's why I was
tolerating your antics for so long and trying to get you to at least
abide
by some basic rules of proper conduct.

But you've consistently shown an inability to present the other side
without making it personal. On one hand you present yourself as someone

trying to open people's eyes (which is a necessary job), but on the
other
hand your actions are those of a person with a personal axe to grind.

Telling him to go * himself? How does that help the people you
believe
are being misled?

Your account is toast and any emails received from you will be filtered
out
of my inbox unread.

Regards,

SI Admin (Bob)

PS. I'm a fan of your "other" work, but even if Alex Lifeson were
carrying
on like that on the site, his account would be toast, too. "
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Bob said he was "Trying to get me to abide by some basic rules." WHAT
ABOUT THE * RULE THAT SAYS YOU MUST BE 18????
I got so sick of that little * playing his games and disrespecting
his elders that I said what was on my mind. I was trying to open peoples
eyes, AND I had an axe to grind. This little * needs to be exposed.

Yes I did tell him to go * himself... and I told him he was a "little
*" because I knew he'd go to Bob rather than talk to me like a man.

My account is toast... any emails from me will be filtered out.

Well, I am sending this from alternate email addresses.. he WILL hear my
last word.

"Bob,

I am glad to hear that your are a fan of my "other" work. I however, am
not a big fan of YOUR work. You are a self-righteous * who OBVIOUSLY
favors one side of this debate over the other. That is fine. Just don't
go pretending that you are justified in your actions. I tell one little
* to "go * himself" and you toss me. Well that is as I
expected. I posted on the Squirrel thread earlier that I might be
suspended or even terminated. I posted to a few others that it is likely
my last day on SI. I knew it when I sent the post to the Miller *.
I sent it anyway. SI is a joke anymore, it has an agenda, and I don't
need YOUR permission to say what I please. I could not continue to post
under your restrictions, and "your sole discretion" is not to my liking.
You continue to let the little * post in clear violation of the
alleged "rules" (that are not really rules unless you decide they
are...) I just wanted to tell you what I think of you and your arbitrary
terms that are enforced "at your discretion". Stick 'em up your *.
You can bark my hole. Use my * for a walking pole. My account is
toast? You will filter out my mail? Well, * you you *!

Sincerely

Musicguy"

And now, if you would share your ICQ numbers or IRC rooms, lets get t
on.
