ump interference

[SanDiegoSteve]

Careful now, Dave. Garth started this one on post # 28. Up until then it was very civil. The same thing happened to the locked thread. It was going along just fine when a certain poster went off the deep end ranting and raving and accusing without provocation.

Any issue Garth has with what Tim allegedly has done could be handled by PM, except Garth has chosen not to activate his private messaging.

I got an idea. Why don't those 3 goobers start their own web site. They could all be Super Moderators of the Whole Universe or sumthin'. Then they could flame each other to their heart's content.

Wait a minute......

They already did that.

Nevermind.....

If it wasn't you posting as "WhosYourBlue" on the ABUA forum who was banned from the board and is now complaining about being stabbed in the back because of it, I apologize.

Careful what you say. You could be the next one that coward stabs in the back. He's drunk with power now. No telling how far he will go.

While I don't care to engage in these little pissing contests, I always seem to have to deal with those two more than my fair share. If everyone would see through them the way I do, this forum would be a much better place. Then they could have the ABUA website all to themselves to hold and cherish.

Is it ridiculous? Yes, but it is the only way I can convey my disdain for their cowardliness. The only problem is they deny any wrongdoing and as is their SOP will continue to do so.

Someone told me I was a terrible umpire. Someone else called me some horrible names. I don't sweat the small stuff. Now that I got that off my chest, PLAY BALL.

Don't know the answer to the first question, but several posters had their accounts suspended for a little while not too long ago. I don't notice much change in the general tone of the boards now that they are back.

(While I won't give any specifics, let me say that it's possible that additional people should be or have been suspended, and not all who were admonished have returned to the previous ways.)
