Because the thing with word-search is you have to search for the right word of course, otherwise you miss it. Which is what happened.

So based on this line of thought;

If a person typed a search string into Google and it didn’t come back with what they were looking for it would make them a dishonest person?

So, who's been nominated the witchfinder general?

Unbelievable


Anyway, no it wouldn't. Saying what they were looking for doesn't exist on the internet on the other hand...

I'm not sure I know what this means. You mean as in a Witch Hunt?

Yes. Although I'm sure The Hog isn't made of wood...

 

[the sceptic]

Just to clarify, is this the "whine about the moderators" thread, or the "jump The Hog's ***" thread? Is there any other poster about whom so much "discussion" would be allowed to go on and on - in two different threads, no less?

hog must be doing something right when the bots get this upset with him.

keep fighting the good fight hog.

Noted. There's some angry folk about. They do tend to hang onto things. The zig zag moment must have been brewing inside for weeks. At least they were able to vent their anger. Now the issue has been resolved I expect to see all three contributing into the threads and not here.

My feeling is the content should he star of the show, not the individuals. I'm sure once the Vuelta hits the mountains and Dawg goes up or down there will be less vitriol.

 

[MarkvW]

You say good question, but you don't answer it. Again, an honest person would have said he hasn't found anything on that issue yet. You chose not to. Why is that?




There is no 'great conspiracy'. It's just you being you.



I'm sure that would make sense in your mind, but no there's absolutely nothing in that.

Accept the fact that sometimes you just can't tell whether or not Hoggie is taking the piss. I think he/she likes it that way.

 

[Carols]

OMG now the Moderator thread has fallen to vortexing!!!!

Long time no see, ebandit.

How your post count never increases, but decreases, is still a mistery to me.

He deletes his posts, so it never grows that much. Why? I have no idea.

If that is baiting then what do you call digging up posts that are months old?

looking forward to the clinic turning into bikeretard, it seems thats what the mods are trying to do.

Oh, okay, thanks. I didn't know we could delete our posts.

The only evidence of the mods trying to do that.......is that you are still allowed to post

How long do you two think you'll be able to continue this back and forth? Might be wise to stop while your ahead.

sorry, do you want me to dig up some month old posts instead?

Oh, hehehehe. God bless, I am laughing so hard, I find it difficult to type! Mark L - you are cryptic to the point that I often disagree with you - but on this occassion, I think you have capture the essence of the situation. Which is the beauty of your posting style - when you distill things to their whisky strength, you get strong alcohol.

Hey, this place is getting a bit crowded now that two of us are logged in at the same time.


Back on topic:
I wonder if the delayed announcement is due to a mod conference to determine if this will be...

A) A short-term ban, just because.

B) A long-term ban to make a point.

C) The last straw.

 

[Susan Westemeyer]

Most likely because the mod forgot to post the reason.

 

[Digger]

Radio - allowed to bait hog at will

Hog replies - he gets banned.

Radio complain to the mods.

Hog gets banned.
