last word on the subject.

[teppic]

sorry to all those who are bored or not interested in this.. but.

what has happened of toffeeweb? senior members closed? it was getting tasty when i left it yesterday. did something big happen? or just the continual bad blood?

in the words of noel.... where did it all go wrong??

 

[Dylan]

Garry obviously decided it had become too much of an 'Old Boys Club' and he did apologise to the individuals whom had not been part of the on-going controversy.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Yeah Dylan he did, and with my say so, he shut it.

Never agreed with the senior members, like I havent agreed with alot on there. If anyones familiar with "the 5 steps to tyranny", you'll see why it was a bad idea from word go! lol

 

[micknick]

Well I liked it, I liked being able to have an area that you can talk to people that you respected above all else.

 

[Dylan]

Well, it is still open for the likes of you, me and Danny

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Well I liked it, I liked being able to have an area that you can talk to people that you respected above all else.

In theory, I see what your saying, but it didnt quite work out did it?

The description was something like "a forum to talk about things away from less desirable members". May aswell have called it "the bitching hair salon".

 

[chicoazul]

I see the point but then the people bitching should have been kicked out.

Great big shame, people will act like kids when treated like it.

i am getting an idea about what happened now.

"slowly but surely inspector holmes gleaned the appropriate information like a butcher extracts meat from a carcass"

it appears that the toffeeweb board, like every other forum has or had a trusted member area, where the select few were granted access.

it appears something of a hullabaloo kicked off in the 'VIP' area, and it was such a topic that it divided the once united members of the 'chosen ones'.

such was the fallout, certain individuals took umbrage with garry 'im god round here' forum owner, and decided to withdraw their forum contributions and give a more equal and fair forum (here) a try.

i wrote a long time ago on Toffeeweb...

..."all accounts are equal, but some accounts are more equal than others"

orwellian, and great.

 

[chicoazul]

Storm in a tea cup. All a bit gay.

 

[SuitsBlue]

another great one

"better to die on your feet, than live on your knees"

 

[chicoazul]

Mick loves living on his knees. Apparantly.

'must have been something you said'

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

I think it had some definite hilarious moments. If the code was adhered to correctly then it would have its merit. Sadly missed but I understand the motives to close it.

It was really the Gay Calleberos Club anyway wasn't it Chico?

 

[Rob]

well now that Keith has been banned (of the hypocrisy of that) have the senior members not been proved right?

Garry had to finally put up with Keiths [Poor language removed] and banned him a day later, all those principles and forum rules went straight out of the window didn't they.

At this moment, I can't help but feel very very smug.

 

[Welton Toffee]

To be fair, Shabs did call him a "fuckwit", which is reason enough to ban him on it's own
