Ripster whacked Harrison via the stupid spam plug in. (it's not very well written) he knew exactly what he was doing because he did the same thing to another user awhile back "accidentally". But this time, he hard deleted all the content. And, to make matters worse, my backup media was not mounted properly after a reboot a few weeks back. So the latest backup is OLD...and selective restoration is not possible. So Harrison is a casualty...

That spam plugin is now disabled. So be on the lookout for more spam. Ashort is setup to whack spam accounts.

Ripster is going to have to go. This last incident + his lying to me about it is the last straw. However, I don't want anything said or done to him by the mods. I will deal with him after the hardware upgrade this weekend (YOU guys grab the wiki content).

Wish me luck.

Talking to me won't help my cause btw. Back to the Freudian analogy there are Son/Father AND BrotherCain/BrotherAbel/Father issues wrapped up in this.

Can't tell for sure, I almost never used the GH wiki (except the "How to date a Cherry keyboard" ).

ps: The only think I miss at GeekHack is Ripster, really!

Banned for "Baiting Admins"

Apparently saying "come at me admin" in a joking matter is reason for a 7 day ban.

Are you ****ing kidding me?

webwit wrote:Hmm, "Get rid of Ripster" and "Grab ripster's content" at the same time, that doesn't seem right. Also a pathological liar to a whole community complaining about a liar, seems a bit disturbing. It's not very Christian.

Even the OP!

It's like you guys had dynamite planted at the GH side of the bridge and I'm trying to get a two way toll card!

Can't wait to see what iMav thinks of this:
http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?3192 ... dmins-quot

And btw NO wiki content was deleted. I even had to restore the Cherry MX wiki main article but eventually iMav restored discussions as well.

And Harrison was a Late Night One Button Zap I regret. Although less lately. I used the words "nuked Harrison" in a PM the day after the incident sent to iMav.

ALL my memorial day posts are intact and you can view them for bannable material. Except the
feedback/suggestion posts viewable in Google archives.

In the end it's like I'm Assange and iMav is McAfee/CIA. HUGE difference in how we view open processes. Perhaps I'll get exiled to Malta?

If you're going to provoke the admin of this community, why should you not get banned? Get your head in straight and be glad you didn't get R.I.P.ster'd.

Sorry but ban disscussion isn't permitted on the forum at this time. If you have any questions or issues, please feel free to contact me via PM. Thanks.
