That posting a classic in the "empty threats" category.

>>Wayne got really PO'ed about the constant hypesters and spammers on SI. He and SI exchanged many harsh words and Wayne decided that since he is very upset about the amount of things in his box which are hype and junk that SI would not be happy either. That is what he tried to do by sending out the tee-shirt link in order to clog up the SI mailbox. I guess it worked.

Yep. He cut off his nose to spite his face. If that's what he wanted, it worked out okay.

>>Wayne has two demands:

1) Hypsesters and spammers will get suspended.
2) SI read complaints.


Who the flip is Wayne to be making demands of anyone? I'll tell you who he is: A NOBODY! (No disrespect towards Wayne intended.)

>>He will continue to post the links if his demands are not met.

Looks like that'll be a cute trick given his current circumstances.

>>Then there is a strike which will happen if Wayne is not re-instated and his demands are met. The strike, or whatever you want to call it, terms have not been established yet but there are people working on something.

Do you know how really childish that idle threat sounds? But, considering the source.....

>>This is getting pretty heated up...

In your wet dream?

>>SI bob and SI officials I think you should asses [sic] the situation carefully..

There you go thinking again.......

Personally, I've had some lively discussion with Wayne before, and I can definitely conclude that he is better off without you speaking for him.

Besides, it looks like you have dirty laundry in your own back yard!

Pitt, for his part, thinks the public should know how Miller works, and that Miller should rise to perhaps more grown-up standards. ''If you're going to play like an adult, you'd better get it right.''

Good words. They'll probably fall on deaf ears, though.
