Oh Earpie...I'll gladly say why I was banned...

1. I registered as AlphaFrog
2. I called you out for Copy/Pasting the Who Does/Doesn't AI directly from GC without even changing the "GC" part.
3. I told you to take down the ASA forum.

I think I'm hurt - I haven't been on GC all that long, and the only person who was rude to me is one of the founders of Happy Pony Rainbow Land. What - I'm not good enough for the rest of you to insult???

She hath more hair than wit, and more faults than hairs.

The complaints I have heard of you I do not all believe;'tis my slowness that I do not, for I know you lack not folly to commit them and have ability enough to make such knaveries yours.

Pray you, stand farther from me, thou odoriferous stench, sound rottenness!

More of your conversation would infect my brain, thou stool for a witch.

Thy mother's name is ominous to children.

Toads, beetles, bats, light on you!

I think you've painted a bit of a rosey picture for yourself, AlphaFrog. Just to set the record straight:

-- you were banned within minutes of registering because it took you just that long to violate our terms of service. You came in loaded for bear, looking to stir up trouble. Our rules clearly spell out that the behavior you displayed was in violation of our TOS.

We enforce our rules because we don't tolerate bullying, nastiness, or any other behavior meant to hurt another person. If you find that "boring" or indicitive of a "low IQ," then by all means, please stay here where you can go mobbing, make snotty remarks to impress your friends, and create cruel parody threads to your heart's content. That's not what we're about.

To refresh your memory, this is the rule you violated in each of your posts--

"While debating and discussing is fine, we will not
tolerate rudeness, insulting posts or personal
attacks... "

Here is one of your very first posts :

This is a pathetic excuse for GreekChat.

Get a life.

That was just one of your handful of inflammatory posts you made. Had you come over and behaved yourself, you would have been welcomed as a member.

Our forum is for people who want to discuss Greek issues in a mature and civil manner. It's also for new people who have questions about recruitment and other Greek issues. You will never see anyone tell a new person to "use the search button" on our forum. We believe each person deserves respect.

I'm sorry that you seem to be so upset about our forum. We have left you alone (yet I see by the sock puppets here) that some of you have chosen not to leave us alone. Hence, my brief return to remind you of what you really did.

If GC is so horrible, and Happy Pony Rainbow Land is all that and a bag of chips, why are so many HPRLers here all the time????

EITY? if so, props on the awesome spelling and non-smilie-use. if not, geez, you would come to ANOTHER board to bring the snark? cause if that's what you're doing...

what's that say on your nametag, pot? oh hi pot. i'm kettle, nice to meet you. you're black. so am i. awesome.

ETA: umm yeah, telling someone to use the search function is not being immature, uncivil or disrespectful. its common sense. it's like your kid asking what a word means. you COULD tell them what it means, or you could tell them to LOOK IT UP. it's whatever floats your boat really. but we like our kids here to learn, not to just be given the answer. we play for keeps around here.

Oh yeah. I forgot about that post. Truth hurts, huh?

Oh, and since that post was deleted from your site, I can only think that you have it saved on your computer as a screenshot somewhere. In which case I'll reiterate my point....

Oh i'm sure it's in the mod's forum on that site

[kathykd2005]

Regardless of what has been done to others, I don't think posting something like that on a public forum is very wise.

Anyhow, I have no idea what has gone on between these two sects of Greek Chatters. To be perfectly honest, I am a member of both groups, simply because I thought there would be more Greek conversations, being in both groups. Really, I didn't know the depth or the severity of this situation.

[SWTXBelle]

I was kinda on the fence - and pretty unsnarky, I must say - until a HPRL founder decided to insult me here. I didn't have a dog in this fight until then. I do find it ironic that the people who are bragging the most about HPRL being friendly and snark-free are the ones who come over to GC and ... are UNfriendly and post snark.
Nice.

[kathykd2005]

This whole situation is really making me sick to my stomach.
