I received tons of p.m.s welcoming me and encouraging me to visit "his" J horror board along with a lot telling me who the idiots and jerks were from the old group and how he and his friends were simply being abused for no good reason. I also got them from Trippin, who seemed another very nice and welcoming member. It seemed he doth protest too much about how he was the glue who held this site together, but I honestly thought he and a couple of his cohorts were like that loud, drunk aunt at the wedding who embarasses and annoys everyone, but are basically harmless.
As I was on the site more and more, I noticed that they were simply stirring crap with every member they could. Any, and I do mean ANY, topic was cause for a meeting of the minds with this crew to see how they could agitate. The Yahoo messenger burned alot of bandwidth for them to come up with ways to harass and irritate anyone and everyone, but especially the mods and the people who had been here any length of time. That was their point for being here. Nothing else. It was all about irritating people they felt had wronged them. They would hop on new people after the first post and try to get you to defend them and what wonderful, wronged people they were.
I made the mistake of getting into yahoo with Dave one night when he said he wanted to talk to me about something. He started a multi-chat, pulling in several cohorts whom I had not spoken to on or off the boards. One member activated his webcam on which he, pretty regularly, shows his penis. I was not the first invitee to this little show. Apparently several underage girls who frequented the site had also been invited at one time or another prompting the "why being a pervert pedophile is okay" speech. I believe there were warnings, etc. at that point, to which they took great umbrage. Well, if a 14 year old girl wants to look at a 30-some year old man jerking off, why should HDC care that that's where they were targeted...prudes!! They were pictures of men....err...at the completion stage of....pleasuring themselves being sent around. I declined and logged...fast and left them with the thought that if they sent me a picture of that nature, they had better keep a copy because after what I would do to their testicles, they would need it to remember when their plumbing functioned.
Of course this was followed up with a post on the boards about how much he enjoyed our conversation, then 4 or so p.m.s about how he sincerely hoped I wasn't offended. They are just open minded and a little wierd and like to talk about sex. Since then I haven't been on this site because, frankly, with this bunch of freaks and perverts I figured I would just go gently into that goodnight and say the hell with this place. I mean, between the boards being loaded with them posting the most inane drivel on purpose just to try and ruin the board, what's the use of fighting the uphill battle.
For those that defend Dave and think his posting idiocy is not bannable, think again. How many people who would be good, fun, knowlegeable contributors to this site never even bother to register because a quick trip through the boards is nothing but vapid drivel and constant conversation about why certain people shouldn't get banned? The only reason I made it that far was that it honestly seemed to me that this was not approved of, in general. Do you think that people posting endlessly about how they want to be banned and how they are just assholes, they can't help themselves and they will do it again, is really a good way to attract people you'd ever want to talk to?
In addition, I'm sure I'm not the only one that has been invited to these little parties from here, then harassed here for saying, okay you sick freaks, if you all want to sit around all night and look at each other's schlongs, have a ball, but leave me out of it. I'm pretty sure the mods have a long list. Especially since I didn't even contact the mods.
Censorship sounds very scary and Orwellian and everyone goes into apoplexy about how they are being repressed. What's worse is when you have a small number of people, most who have been banned before (and are exploiting the lack of an ISP block) come back under another name to create trouble and basically kill the board to settle old scores. They were already banned and came right out and said I'm back under another name to cause trouble. Banning is the only possible option.
As for Dave and everyone being against him because he's Korean and can't spell..err...Dave has been in the states his whole life. He graduated from school here and he lives in California. He's just illiterate. I'm sorry, if you can't sing, don't stand up at karaoke and if you can't spell or type coherent sentences, stay off of boards where coherent writing is a prerequisite!!
