Q for the Mods: Sharing my own reviews?

What I think doesn't matter. Obviously it's your fucking board, you (seem to) run Houston. Originally Posted by DEAR_JOHN

Wakeup doesn't run anything. He's the owners' performing chimp.

He posts something controversial, his sycophants agree, a few of us disagree, words fly back and forth, and the lurkers keep on clicking.

"Look at those whales!' (click click click click click click)
"I'm Val's husband!" (click click click click click)
"Provider X isn't as hot as they say" (click click click click click)
"Blowpop is running a scam" (click click click click click)
"I'm Wakeup! I tell the truth!" (click click click click click)
"Bros before hos!" (click click click click click)

Repeat. Repeat again. Over eight thousand times.

Thousands and thousands of posts that say pretty much nothing other than "look at me, I like putting down women and I have a bad attitude". No reviews. Precious little actual hobby information, other than that which can be put into the context of insulting a provider in some way. Because he's Wakeup. He's "honest". That's his routine.

Writing that sort of bile isn't about hobbying. It's not about getting to know the providers here. It's about impressing his band of followers. So they'll keep treating him like he's important. Or something.

Maybe it's that he makes them feel better about themselves. It's like why people watch Jersey Shore. "I may be fucked up, but I'm not as fucked up as Snooki." Maybe that's it. Wakeup is our Snooki. Even Snooki has fans, I suppose.

And Wakeup's followers generally aren't as bad as he is - many write reviews, many seem to be able to have a conversation with women without insulting them. They're probably mostly good guys who just act like jerks when following a bigger jerk.

This kind of thing happens all the time.

The fact that CFE is banned while a pure troublemaking troll like you is still active is one of the biggest injustices I've ever seen on any internet forum. Screw the rules, it's about principle. Originally Posted by DEAR_JOHN

The mods are doing the best they can with the guidelines they're given. I certainly wouldn't want their job.

Houston modtards get all the free pussy they could ever want...........what is not to like about that?

is that pussy or pussies?

Next segment we'll discuss singular and plural possessive.

It's just one page up, I shouldn't have to post it for you again.

You might want to wiki 'principle', the concept probably escapes you.

I asked... "Which guidelines here are against your principles", not "what offends your principles"...theCFE was banned according to rule 20, which states that we can't reveal restricted info...you're against that guideline? I knew BP liked to give out restricted info to providers, didn't know you did too...

That the only one?

Damn u WU. You got her banned. Oh wait a minute that means she may be offering time out specials? You evil genius!

careful DJ, don't let too much air out of your airbags

Cut and dry here it goes so we have no confusion:

As I posted on page one (And now confirmed by Admins and Owners).... as the author you are free to share what YOU AND YOU ALONE post as ROS information to the provider in question. YOU AS THE AUTHOR/Sharer are NOT in violation..... BP sharing his review of TheCFE to TheCFE is not in violation. IF Said provider then posts that she knows the ROS from said author of the review in question, or posts ROS information on the public board SHE IS in Violation of guidelines and is subject to punishment. TheCFE posting that she was made aware of the ROS from BP and posting as much is in fact in violation and stands to be punished for such. To reiterate: BP is fine, no rule violation, but by sharing allowed TheCFE to hang herself essentially. If she decides to post the contents of the ROS on another website, she will be asked to remove the comments or face the possibility of losing her VP status here, or worse.

In regards to Paid Lifetime Premium Access.... You share ROS/ML/PA content other than expressed above you ARE in violation of the forum guidelines and stand you have your PA access REVOKED! You buy your season tickets to the games and you throw a beer on Ron Artest, you lose your seats AND your money. Same applies here. You forfeit your PA because you violated the terms of use of said purchase. You can buy it again once you're back on the board, but you keep it so long as you adhere to the guidelines as stated. Same goes for "Earned PA" from reviews. If you have 6 weeks from a review you JUST wrote and get caught sending out ML info to those who are not supposed to have access, you lose all of your PA.

This the way we are all (the Houston staff) going to treat this moving forward because that is the way we were told by the Admins and Owners to do so. Interpretation of guidelines by the mods is NONEXISTENT when the interpretation is set down by the Admins and Owners on a specific case like this. Once we get THEIR interpretation on a guideline, that then becomes the ONLY one as far as we are concerned in handling it.

I hope that helps. Originally Posted by Jusanotherdude
