So you never wrote a column that looked eerily similar to a post by a poster named spanky?

And bigfan allowing you to use his site to advertise your column never helped you? Really?

you just did. i only vaguely recalled it. you mentioned the thing about spanky...that's what i was referring to.

I have sought nothing but your affirmation for years.

So what happened with spanky?

You wanna know how much money I've made from my stupid little golf blog? $0.00. Zero. As far as the spanky thing, I've already explained my side of all of that long ago.

Good lord. Take it easy folks.

I have not nor am accusing you of plagiarism. That is not what a friend does

You have used this site to promote your outside endeavors. Would you like me to rephrase to adjust for the income...because the conclusion is the same

It doesn't offend that anyone posts where he pleases. Post here, post there. However for you, a person who enjoyed more than average benefits from your association with this site, to pile in on the already be labored topic of how much everything big fan sucks, is offensive

Above that you and Irish are two guys with great young families and positions with heavy responsibilities. I simply cannot understand how you two, above all the rest, have the care to sweat such infinitesimally minor things that you complain about. Instead it sounds like to kids pandering to the crowd to receive approval

This entire thing is so monumentally absurd on everyone's part that it really is incomprehensible. I've thrown out my theories but they have all been bs. This is just dumb.

Maybe so. I think we've had a great opportunity to see how people we've interacted with for years truly are. That is very valuable no matter what side you take.

not side boobs.

There have been a lot of bad impressions that have come across over the last couple of days from seemingly everywhere.

Do I think you made money. Nope. But it is set up to take money. You have prices for different ads and services, thus you wish it to be publicized and make $$$ from it.

While I WISH this place made me huge $$$ it doesn't and while I dont care about it, one day, who knows, maybe something happens and there is some value, but when certain people like you spend significant time here telling people I am the bad guy and I dont pay my debts (because you didnt get a free T shirt) thats not cool.

It's like me saying "The Guy who runs ChicagoDuffer.us might take your money and not advertise your services and won't call you back after getting the cash! Stay away from him."

because this is essentially what you did here for better part of a year!

That doesnt even include the 2 times you sent me PM's asking to quit because you didnt want to be part of these type of actions, most likely due to wanting to monetize your site.

Then the shit hits the fan and you spend quite a bunch of time fanning the flames with "I haven't been around here lately, can you tell me what happened?" You knew exactly what happened.

So, when you want to get the free T shirt that says "I AM A HYPOCRIT" just let me know.

Holy fuck, I'd say so.

Guys putting in work over here. Maybe Bears/Packers should be postponed.

Real question:

What would those complaining about the "other" board like at this point? Not trying to be a dick, but I can't figure out at this point. At first I thought people wanted some kind of admission of wrong doing, but that happened...so it's not that. Then I thought some guys wanted those who "left" to come back and post....that has happened as well...so not that.
The only thing I can come up with is some just want the other board go away. Is that correct?

I can only speak for myself, but I would simply like those at the other board to drop their phony claims to some vague moral high ground. As if the place where we've all posted for years was some kind of degenerate hotbed for undesirables.

Some people just wanted another place to post.....for various reasons. To want everyone to feel the same way that you do seems unreasonable. What's done is done now. The board exists. People like to post there, people like to post here. So now, all the sniping seems fo be one sided. I just can't see what the end game is here.

You asked the question and then you didn't like the answer.

The sniping is far from one-sided. You're just on one side and pretending to be neutral. You must think people are stupid. It's really fucking offensive.

Um........alright, then.

It is dumb. This whole thing is dumb. It could have been avoided. But, it's probably exactly what this place needed. Sad that it will continue to affect relationships in the short and long term.
Who was asking about the next melt-down about a month ago?

btw: Holy shit Dr. Ken. Glad you are doing better...
