Since our fearless mod decided to call me out, I thought I'd do publicly what I have already done privately, apologize to DD for some nasty comments I made under a guest account. I didn't mean them, I've never even heard his band, I was only try to make a point about OTHER people on this forum who use guest acounts to be dicks, namely: conaway and ycarrot. Apparently it's okay for them and not for me.
BTW, I was not Chris T, that was some other asshole who apparently is above the law around here too.
strange way to make a point...
I have no knowledge of conaway or ycarrot using guest accounts to be a dick and there's no way of you knowing so it's not right to assume that. dont think i'm monitoring people or something, have better things to do, but sometimes it's just really obvious.
other people have been doin it, yes. so...
have you been a guestdick and feel like confessing,
this is the place to tell us and all will be forgiven ;)
remember the post about what the boys had for breakfast?
that was this dick right here. ;)
I want to be forgiven as well. I know I can be a classless jerk sometimes. Love ya!!
And I posted fake apologies from the assholes using guest accounts.
And I don't apologize for it. I don't understand the point of name-calling and ridiculing people you don't even know. Especially anonymously. That is not only asshole-ish, but really fucking cowardly.
And I'm guessing that none of these jerks would have the balls to say shit to somebody's face.
When somebody was askin' about Jim's angel tattoo, I was "halo" when I answered because I thought it would be funny.
I was anonymous in a reply to an aMD post once because he was really pissing me off and I didn't want to ruin my rep. 8)
Maaaaaan I feel better now. ;)
This is my new favorite thread of all-time. Come on Carrot fess up I know you had to have gotten in on this action. I really want to know who said what. This is exciting. :)
Hey Meg, why does it say you only have 77 posts? Does it wrap around once you reach 10,000? ;)
QuoteHey Meg, why does it say you only have 77 posts? Does it wrap around once you reach 10,000? ;)
yeah. i wanted to ask the same thing..but OT! ;)
I would like to confess right now about how perfect I am. I've never slandered anyone or said anything negative. Even if someone says something I disagree with, I'll agree just to avoid discussion and conflict.
In short, I'm way better than everyone else and you should all be ashamed of yourselves.
;)

An old, old wise Ninja taught me how to revert time to my advantage. In the process, all of you gained a year. I like to help.
I have never used a fake name.I yam who I yam. ;D
there's only one thing left to say:
MY CAT'S BREATH SMELLS LIKE CAT FOOD ;)
I once made a post under the guest moniker, but it was because I didn't realize I wasn't logged in and I hadn't posted alot before-- so I thought it was normal to ask for your name....so I still used "Coltrane." I always felt dirty about it though.
And now I feel real bad about any negative posts I've ever had.
Except that Alice In Chains thread. I wasn't really being negative though, just honest. The thought of Layne Staley is sad. And Jerry Cantrell IS cool, sort of.
and I love EC!!!!!!!!!

No apologies, huh. That's a suprise. Lord knows Riny won't call you out, but I learned that trick from you. I guess you'll have to continue to be a "secret asshole"
(BTW, I never hidden my identidy when calling out this asshole, and I am not afraid to tell him he's an asshole in person. He's the one who avoided me before and after the Palace show. Just to set the record straight.)

it was pretty awesome. much in the same spirit as my "John Conaway is a hypocrite" thread i started a few months ago. It didn't get too long before Riny squashed it, whilst calling me out about being No Joke in the process.
He told me it was because we're apparently not allowed to start a thread to talk about someone on the forum. However, the "clique" had plenty of threads started about them. Didn't conaway have a lot to say about them too? Wow, all this seems very...what's the word...hypocritical.
but who am I to say, I'm just a jacket fan.
aMD, why don't you share what you know?
'Cos I'll admit, I'm away from the boards for weeks at a time. So maybe I missed something. But I really don't understand where all your anger is coming from.
I saw the thread this morning, and I'd love to hear what the fuck is behind that kind of nastiness, because I've never seen anything to provoke it.

I really wish CC hadn't deleted that thread because it really articulated the things about John that irritate me to no end. But you having read it I won't go into those things right now.
If you really think that all the nastiness is coming from me and none is directed towards me maybe I really should check into a mental institution. But I think I still have my wits because the guy who started this thread, Silvac, and many unnamed others told me that they also think John is an asshole of the highest order (mainly through private messages for whatever reason). But you tell me Tundra, am I making all this shit up? Am I really nuts?

ill be the first one to say ive thought johns an asshole on numerous occasions, but its just an opinion. i know im an asshole, and im sure i put off people all the time. there are many other times ive agreed with him on things, music or political or whatever. have you always disliked him, or did it just start with the leak discussion back last summer? i only joined right before that, so i dont know all the history. it does seem you find it impossible to find any common ground with him at all. hell even tracy and i have agreed a few times before. ;)
I've never read anything John's posted and thought, 'Man, that dude's an asshole.' I have read plenty of other folks' posts and thought that. I've probably posted some asshole-ish comments myself.
I know there was some kind of friction over the whole should/shouldn't we listen to the pirated copy of Z. But I missed out on most of that.
I like John, and I know he's a very dedicated fan. The one time I met him he was very friendly. He was not patronizing or pompous or anything but kind to me when I was a newbie. In fact, he sent me a copy of a live show, since I didn't have a computer to download it with. He runs the FTP, and has provided anyone who asked access to it since way before archive.org.
Whatever disagreements there may have been, I don't think John would ever start a thread to insult, humiliate, or embarass someone.
But, like I said, I want to know what YOU know. Has John been shitty to you while hiding behind a guest account? Here's your chance to out him.
John and I are beyond finding common ground. I try not to address John at all but at times I can't help myself and other times he forces my hand. I don't mean to come across as an aggressive hateful person, I just hate John.
And I don't really want to get into the history of it, but it started before the leak incident. Another night perhaps but right now I have a whiskey bottle and a guitar calling my name. I'm sending the first one out to Tundra and Ratsprayer: I Will Sing You Songs> ;D
Yeah.
just listen to yourself. You need mental help.
"I hate John". You're a dweeb. I've given no reason for you, or anyone else for that matter, to hate me. You've got issues.

it does seem petty to say you hate john without giving reasons for it, but im sure theyre justified in your mind. on the other hand, does anyone really think that everyone could like them? i have no problem with you overall john, but seriously you cant think that you can be friends with everyone on the planet?

devil's advocate
oh hell no! indifference is something different than "hate".
I'm not Ray Romano, or Jerry Seinfeld. Hardly.
Fact is, this is a messageboard on the INTERNET. This guy is off his nut! He "hates" me? Wow! I'm so flattered I could cry! Man, you really need a life if you sit around beating yourself up about this. Jesus.

yeah spot on, i can agree with that. it is puzzling to wonder where the hate comes from? john, are you sure youve not slashed his tires or stolen his first born?
Jealousy? I'm not sure. The "history" he speaks of is just silly. Wow, we had some disagreements...ON THE FUCKING INTERNET. Holy shit Batman, call the fucking National Guard.
does this strike anyone else as being quite silly?

I have no problem telling people my feelings and opinions using my real ycartrob. You got some weird delusions about this place if you think I need to hide from my opinions.
I don't even see the point in challenging your opinions now :-[
good luck man, and I mean it. Sorry you had to take my posts so personally, but at some point, after I said over and over and over and over and over again that it was all in fun, I figured you'd lighten up.
I guess I was wrong.
I got no hard feelings with anyone here and here's hoping to rock out with all of you at the next Jacket show.
coupla guys that don't get along. fine, won't be the last time.

mm hm.
Quotedoes this strike anyone else as being quite silly?
I was just thinking the same thing Ali.
To be honest I'm surprised & shocked at how many people have posted under a false name. WTF?!!
Has it never occured to anyone that to a very small extent we are representing the Jacket here?
If you consider yourself a 'real fan' then show the Jacket some respect. We are all guests here on their behalf...
If I was someone just checking the threads, thinking about signing up & posting for the first time right now I would probably stay away under the assumption that a lot of the regulars here are dicks.
Of course, that assumption would be wrong but I can't help but feel this is something of a low point for the forum.
The way I see it yes, this is the internet, but the same real life rules should apply, repsect, common courtesy etc.
Sending posts as fake guests, name-calling, ongoing personal feuds etc, it's all rather sad.
once, when i was 15, my online friend kristen stole my online boyfriend jason and i cried and swore i would never get it over it. 10 years later, i'm still shaking my head over how unnecessary the drama was...
man, you don't read the board for 12 hours and you miss out on the young and the restless...
i've thought about posting smack under an assumed name, but 1. knew riny could see that and 2. am not a chickenshit. and not that i'm passing judgment on anyone else...
it makes me sad when people i like fight. what's the internet equivalent of smoking da peace pipe?
(http://www.nordwallart.com/files/pipe5.jpg)
just to be clear: i wasn't chicken.
okay, wellfleet? so, stick it, biatch. next time i see you i'm going to give you a push if you're woman enough to stand in my presence. HEAR MY WRATH, WOMAN!! >:(
the reason i followed the chickenshit comment with no judgment is because i would consider calling someone an idiot under a false name really cowardly and i wouldn't do it. but it may be right for someone else.
obviously posting something funny/ironic under an assumed name is not the same thing.
do we need to smoke the peace pipe? we're canadians, we're supposed to wear blue helmets and say 'eh'...
when you were typing "biatch" were you doing the finger snapping thing? because that would add a little something extra... ;D

JC, been meaning to ask, is that pic under your name a pendant that you wear? because that would be heroic....

Maybe we should all make signs. I'll be spending a few days with my FAVOURITE kid before then, and he also happens to love my morning jacket, AND he even knew who Jim was from the Elizabethtown poster. Maybe he'll help me make a sign...

AND YOU'RE GONNA LIKE IT REAL GOOD.

WHERE A WOOD BURING STREAM FLOWS UP THRU THE TREES -
LIKE THE SOUL OF THE HOTTEST KIND OF LOVER I'VE EVER SEEN: "E"
ONE WHO LIVES TO CHOOSE ANOTHER FOOL'S DREAM.
A GOOD SHOWERHEAD AND MY RIGHT HAND - THE TWO BEST LOVERS THAT I EVER HAD.
NOW IF YOU FIND YOU AGREE WITH WHAT I JUST SAID, YOU'D BETTER FIND A NEW LOVE
AND LET 'EM INTO YOUR HEAD.
QuoteI've thought about bombarding them with Peeps before.
Yeah, that's probably not a great idea. You maybe don't want to be swerving peeps when you're trying to play. Plus then other people will think it's a GREAT idea to throw shit on the stage, and it'll just get stupid like at our highschool battle of the bands.
Maybe if we gently left them in little piles on the edge of the stage.

Yeah well your goddamn red shoes had BETTER be lucky! You'd better have had the entire continent of IRELAND blessing yer red shoes, because I will DESTROY YOU.
(seriously. red shoes are my favourite. they're fun and they go with everything.)
Well, we could just wait until the encore break and let em fly so when they come back out they are surrounded by peeps. They'll feel good on Jim's bare feet.
you would not believe the breath-takingly AWESOME power of the red shoe... who needs IRISH blessings? my little babies will KICK your butt all on their little true-blue-dinky-die AUSSIE lonesomes!! ready when you are.... not chicken are we?? bwark bwark bwark...

FREE PINA COLADAS sign
Okay here's the plan. We need to find a way to steal back the sign and cross out the crack part and paint "pina coladas" over top of it. We need a Louisville caper. Assuming the sign is in Louisville.
I'm on it, I'm on it.
Louisville natives, we might need to employ your excellent spy and ninja capabilities. Please pm me with your ninja level status as well as your spy and stealing history.
