unsubscribe request
 

banishing myself request.

nothing to do w/ that list

but thank you, in advance.

what the heck? the timing ?

is this how one unsubscribes themself? with a thread?

OP doesn't remember his disparaging comment(s) towards me during the Collection auction debacle. But me and a respected board member discussed it at the time. OP asks for a small favor now so I privately told him what I thought about it....that is about it.

looks like the first fatality of the day....if he comes back after saying being banished than he doesn't follow through and that's just as bad....if you have unsubscribed yourself (without any explanation as to why) than no reason to comment on any more threads ever..

Wish the same could be said for you.

i feel like I missed something

one guess: the ol peck n snyder pecks again.

sent leon request for list.

leon replies w. disparaging remark about the ol peck and snyder card and "sure, i'll do you a favor even though..."

leon was told he was wrong in his assumption.

I fwd a thread from the cu board not only where I commend him for returning the card, but I even started the damn thread!

leon gives half-hearted apology w/ continued disparaging remarks about not trusting him.

I have no reason to trust or distrust him. I don't collect prewar. never even bought or attempted to buy anything from him or even had a need to attempt to negotiate with him.

all in all, it came outta left field and apparently been harboring feelings for months now...

but in the end, it's pretty sophomoric, petty and am choosing not to be a part of it.

let it go, dude.

haven't you dealt w/ enough on this card?

edit: it even gives him props for the possibility of getting compensated from sgc on the guarantee since the card was bumped down and what a possible ingenious move, if so. use the rules to your advantage!

one could only hope.....but I look forward to your future posts!

CU deleted the first thread over there and that might (probably) be where your comment was stated. I am 100% sure just as you would be if you were in my shoes. But that is old news and my PM today was my getting it off my chest. Overall you were never on my sh** list. It takes more than one crappy comment for that. Do as you like...

ok I understand the frustration there...the explanation is a lot better to readers than not hearing anything....I do comment on things which causes people to respond but I definitely leave it open for people to explain their side and I think you did it adequately....not sure why you would want to banish yourself now though...unless its because asoriano thinks you should...we all have to follow what asoriano says of course...:)

she said, she said. and while that's my favorite beatles tune, you are 100% wrong again and simply another assumption. again, a self admitted "very stressful" time for you. i could/would completely understand considering the heat you were taking and attacks being thrown at you from every angle but it was the half hearted apology, yet still coupled w/ provoking comments after all this that gets me. You can admit, that we were good and talking it out up until that point, correct?

i appreciate you saying i wasn't on your shit list, but then again i had no reason to be. and if i did, why let it fester for months on end? it coulda been cleared up right then and there if you felt like something was misconstrued vs trying to recall something from months ago.

i am posting and pointing out facts, links to threads, etc

you are posting he said, she said and probablys.

and if i did make disparaging remarks why would i turn around, start a thread and commend you for returning the damn thing?

doesn't make sense.

I just forwarded email comments concerning you from several months ago to the member I was discussing it with. So, no, not really making stuff up...though my dates could admittedly be off. I say we drop it and let it be.....as the Beatles would say.

.

c'mon folks...lets just let this be...this thread is making me dizzy miss lizzy.

today is for corruption discussions and shills and crookery...lets stay on task here!

still have not gotten those messages, but consider this for a second...

ringo: "i just got a valentines day card from john lennon in the mail"

paul: "i know, me too"


does this really make you believe he sent out valentines day cards this year?


and the more i think about it...

why in the world would the cu mod delete a thread simply because i said i don't trust you?

now, i fully admit there was another thread going on over there. hell, i even pointed out in reference on the one that i started saying "i couldn't find it but if someone could, please point it out to me" but what it didn't say was this: "i talked a lot of sh!t about leon, now i would fully like to polish his knob for returning it". please.

but it makes a lot more sense that a certain someone would request for said thread to be deleted vs it being deleted simply because of mere trust issues....

Awesome!!!

+1. that sh!t is hilarious!

It was the first thread about it over on CU. And no, I have never asked anyone at CU to delete a post or thread.....they did it on their own but a few in that thread said it would go poof soon and it did....but maybe I am making all of this up because I have nothing better to do?

please. i don't think you are an absolute moron, leon. far from it.

but could you have misconstrued or taken outta context something at a self admitted "very stressful" time in your life? sure. who couldn't? 100% plausible!

the fact that you simply have no facts, completely blindside me, offer a crap apology and then have the audacity to play the "i'm just making this all up" card is what is defining character at this particular moment...

other side of the family, but you never sausage a place!

completely kidding, of course. no relation whatsoever.

Bob,
I hope you reconsider and stick around.
I want to hear the story of your 1977 Reggie Jackson proof

These types of threads get us Nowhere Man.

This thread has been here, there and everywhere.

There have been a few forums (not this one) where the participant behavior was so idiotic and the moderation so horrible/unfair, that I considered asking to be 'deleted'; however, I considered it with the assumption that the moderator would take me up on it. I think if you ask to be removed, you should be removed in less than a shake of a lamb's tail.

There are some forums where, if you ask to be removed, they warn you that all traces of your existence will be removed (other than quoted posts, I assume) - that's the way I would want it done to me if I made such a request.

Having said all that, I have never asked to be removed from a forum - even the incredibly stupid ones that I should never have joined.

Nothing against Bob, although I am on a detox diet that doesn't allow sausage.

This unsubscription is taking longer that a KISS Farewell Tour!

The long and winding road
That leads to this thread
Will never disappear
I've seen that thread before
It always leads me here
Lead me to your posts

a few more stanzas and then

But still they lead me back
To the long winding thread
You left me reading here
A long long time ago
Don't keep me reading here
Lead me to your posts
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

It's the 'KISS your butt farewell' tour :)

I once wanted to ban myself from a forum, and found that there was an option for that - I could do it all on my own just by clicking a link; however, when I did so, it warned me that all posts would also be removed. I almost did it just out of curiosity, but stopped because I realized there were some people in the forum who were friends, and who could only get hold of me through the forum.

Now I'm going to go back and find that forum and delete myself. I'll report back how it works out. Thanks to Bob for giving me the idea…and courage…to take this needed step.

This reminds me of the old Yakov Smirnoff joke from the '80's: "Comedy is different in USSR. In USSR, if you say "Take my wife, please", you come home, she is gone"... :D

lol

Why would anyone "banish" themselves when all you have to do is not participate. Unless you want to draw more attention to themselves. Hmmm

:D

Lamb Tails
 

What is the timing difference between one versus two shakes of a lamb's tail

10 nanoseconds. No, seriously, it is. :D

Two
 

I agree with you on two, but he said one. Is that 5 nanos ?

I realize some may think this off topic, but it does relate to the timing of self initiated deletions

In "Two Shakes of a lamb's tail" a shake is not a verb, but a unit of measurement equaling 10 nanoseconds. So, two shakes would equal 20 nanoseconds. At least that's my understanding. :D

Shakes
 

Well, one shake or two, if a nanosecond is one billionth of a second, poor Bob would not have lasted long if Runscott was in charge :)

I like Bob and think he's funny. However, if he recants, would that be an un-unsubscription, or a re-subscription.

I heard Uma Thurman say "Two shakes of a lamb's tail" in 'Pulp Fiction', and figured Uma wouldn't need to shake anything more than once to get what she needed.
