I normally don't get into these things, but it's kinda of a lousy thing for the other "mods" to sit in silence while you (GS) are going above and beyond with this site and taking heat when it comes. Awesome job as a mod, and if you haven't heard this before Thank You for doing such a great job.

i agree, GS you do a wonderful job :D

Uh, yeah...he gave away some major stuff for free. He adverstised he was giving it away, asked who wanted it, asked who thought they deserved it......then after everyone gave him their input, he came off all high and mighty saying "See how I'm everyone's friend when I have free stuff !!!"

He acted like everyone on this site hated him because he didn't recieve like 50 responses for every pic he took. He chastised those of us who are friends and comment on each others work like we are a "Clique" that had black balled him. He tried to turn this site into a popularity contest.

I asked Graham (Sonnelion) and this was his Reply as to why he banned Allen;

"Part of it had to do with that set-building thread. The lil sniping and whining in the thread. I told him to stop sniping GS and he was like NO. "

When an Admin tells you to do something, you have the RIGHT to say no...but you accept the responsibility that you could be banned!

Allen had some great talents.....people skills and socialization were not some of them!

I didn't knew he was banned, but I can't say that I'm sad.

What no one knows about is that some members had PMed him and offered bribes to get some of those free items. I wonder if any of them are going to step up. Has anyone else ever offered to give away hard to find items for free. Someone who lacks "people skills" would they do this: http://www.joebattlelines.com/forum...pic.php?t=14277 I saw it this morning and didn't really think anything of it until now. Seems out of character if they lack "people skills" Just my two cents.


You're all heart ;) I take it you weren't one of the winners.

I dunno? Has anyone else ever offered to give away hard to find items for free? Quit worrying about a guy most of us are GLAD is gone and ask around.....

Bravo? Has anyone given you something hard to find for free?
Lord Raven?
ToneGuns?
JJsVipers?
General Scarlett?
Jay?
TunnelRat?
Anybody? Anyone?

Free? Hmmmm.....more like at the expense of acting like his pompous @$$ was better than everyone else here! He could have offered a USS Flagg, a V1 Pimp Daddy Destro and a defiant Shuttle complex to me for free and if he had acted like that to the other members of this forum, I'd have told him where he could shove them!

Uh, yeah. A real guy would have done like the Tao says.....
"He accomplishes his task, but does not dwell upon it"

BlowTorch could never just do good for the sake of doing good....he had to be praised for everything. Were he really "All Dat" he would have just been generous and shut up about it. He HAD to TELL EVERYONE how gracious and giving he is/was. I tell people I give stuff away, but I don't go into detail about what or to who. They wanna know, they can ask around...I do it so people will know I'm a straight shooter,I'm honest, NOT so people will praise and Exault me!

And I HIGHLY doubt anyone offered to bribe him (except maybe the troll aka nightcreeper) because Blowtorch was so high on his own moral superiority he would have called them out. He wasn't above acting superior and trying to shame other forum members who he was jealous of....or wanted to be like....or wanted to date....I dunno what his problem was with a lot of us. He acted like a pompous @$$ and then got mad when no one wanted to be his friend and talk to him! I honestly think he had some sort of social affective disorder! I think he needed therapy.

He had this juvenile need to be not only accepted, but worshipped, and if you didn't do it, he acted like you were slime. I forgot to thank him once for something extra he sent me (I got a Ton of stuff the same day and it all got mixed in together..and I was busy that week...I have a thousand reasons why I forgot, but not a good excuse) But rather than be cool and say "Hey, did you get that extra stuff I sent ya", he drug me out in the forums and acted all high and mighty like he was the fricken ettiquite Police! He was the main reason I left here for a while. I had no intention on coming back, but friends told me "Don't let the bastiches get you down"....and I didn't! I took a hiatus, collected my thoughts and returned!

You're right Luis didn't win that stuff. If you're so interested in BlowTorch and been reading his posts and KNOW him, you should know that OF ALL Things! Luis hated him and unlike most of us on here who couldn't stand him, and just Tolerated him, LUIS would let him know in no uncertain terms. No one here liked the guy, we just tolerated him. What your intrest in him is escapes my logic. unless you're him. If you're not drop it, let this thread, and his memory die and good riddance to whiners IMHO!

I guess there a few people here with BIG EGOS. As far as bribes goes it was more than the troll (that you stated many times you hooked up talk about praise :rolleyes: ) but believe what you want. Your opinion does really matter. FYI I'm not him but again you can think what you want. After all you're the "Top Dog" here :rolleyes:

For someone new...and NOT him....you certainly KNOW a lot about people you just "met" and you talk just like HIM!

And who cares if someone tried to bribe him...you offer top quality stuff, you honestly think people won't try hard to get it?

General Scarlett...

Lock this post before I frakkin lose it and get myself banned..PLEASE!!!

Please the Giant Ego is unbearable.
They won't bann you, you hook everyone up.

I did a little reseach you know getting everyone's take and well I know where you stand.
