Title: Vic's use of Fibsboard
Post by: vegas_vic on February 26, 2005, 09:54:33 PM
I was asked to keep my threads to a min. seems that some member or members asked socksey
why i posted the same pic in two different threads .

Well i had started the pic of the week just to give something different to fibsboard every week .
Then the Christo gates happend some people asked if i was shooting it and i did for a day.
started a christo thread.

So i posted one of the pics in the pic of the week thread thinking some people might not go to the christo post .

Anyways to make things short , i am sorry i took to much  space in here .

ill stop my posts and if it is not to much trouble for webrunner or the moderators to delete my threads . seems they have the ability to do it when ever they like.

See you all later in the true free forum that is FIBS .
here is my last pic post i call it the idot savant . you make what ever you like of it .
i am out of here .................. ADIOS

You misunderstood, vic.  We have plenty of room here and like your photos very much, but you do what you want.

Woooo Hold Up Vic  :o

There really appears to be a huge misunderstanding!

I myself do not post regularly here on the board, but a little while back, I posted the same response in 2 "related" but separate threads! This was pointed out to me, with a request to remove one, if acceptable, as it was not really that neccessary to take up the space..... or something on that line!

I totally understand why you feel slight frustration and dissatisfaction, specially as you had taken the responsibility of, and I quote ......."Well i had started the pic of the week just to give something different to fibsboard every week .
Then the Christo gates happend some people asked if i was shooting it and i did for a day. started a christo thread. So i posted one of the pics in the pic of the week thread thinking some people might not go to the christo post"

There are times when perhaps apparent "goodwill" and "forsight" is not obvious to the recipients, but I am sure, now that you have explained the situation, it clarifys it for all of us who enjoy your excellent photos, where they are now likely to be, and more importantly, provides us the insight in to your consideration for your fellow fibs members by ensuring the photos were not missed :yes:

I hope you reconsider your decision  :(

Vic.

I for one really enjoy the photos that you post. Unfortunately, the captions are so badly mispelled that i have no idea what the photos are about. Keep 'em coming.

I dont think that is half as bad as you shouting in fibs: "Kari is as good as dead for me".
Title: Vic's use of Fibsboard
Post by: vegas_vic on March 01, 2005, 01:20:15 PM
Yes Kari you are dead as far as i am concernd.
If you are that forgetfull let me remind you when all this started, it was when you chastizing a new TD for making the mistake of running a tourney on firday its the day you own, i saw all of it in shouts and i called you out on it. as i have called out socksey about 2 game tourneys by the way it was your tourney you turned over to her so you can play in this one :) i wonder why ? maybe its easy pickins for you.
And not to mention your be littling soups efforts to set up a new team tourney , Look buddy some people do not like my style and some dont care for your style .

You run in a gang simle as that gang mentality will never work in FIBS .


PS for your info since you are not american the saying you are as good as dead to me means you dont exist and doesnt mean i wish for your death .

Grow up will you , you are a new father for christ sake

PSS And all the respect i held for you and socksey have just vanished in thin air , i find you both chilish and vindictive and cant take criticism , because both of you know better then the littl pions that we are in fibs.

Wrong, you have selective memory. Remember that F3, when you were accusing samirah of cheating!? Rings the bell?

You dont sound too american either  ;) and I know what the saying means.

Really, new father?? FYI, I think I'm pretty 'old' father if my youngest kid is 17yr old!!??

Post by: vegas_vic on March 01, 2005, 01:52:34 PM
As far as sam goes in my match i had cubed her and she was asking someone Cheeta or eddieVEd i forgot to resign?

thenshe said opps it came in kibitz

i ask you what am i to make out of this ?
So i thought  she is asking someone is it a take or not  ?
Then she said sorry Vic i have a new interface i dotn know ho wot use it .

I am not on the other side , so i asked you as a TD to come and look , and you decided to go on and i went on and won the match.

so lets set the record straight i didnt call her a cheat i just laughed lol when i saw her in kibitz asking now i forgot was it eddie or cheeta , but she was asking resign ? on my cube

At this Time i did not know Sam as i do now and i am sure she was not asking how to play. and i have had no problmes with her and we have played many times after this.
YOu are the one having a problem with it, it was a misunderstanding so grow up still stands buddy.

Vic, I did not call you an idiot.  That was a quote!  My quotes are to be taken for thought value only, not personally.   :rolleyes:

Get off the defensive and lighten up, please.

i think on the end you said ive been saving this for the right time ,

What is that suppose to mean but Vic you not only sound like a idiot you are an idiot ,

Post by: webrunner on March 01, 2005, 02:49:17 PM
Dear Vic,
I know i speak for a lot of people if i ask you to reconsider.
I have several points to make for this :

1. You have a difference of opinion with two of the moderators on this forum. I understand and aknowledge that. But let me tell you, there is 12 moderators whith whom you don't have an argument. (see http://www.fibsboard.com/index.php?act=Stats&CODE=leaders (http://www.fibsboard.com/index.php?act=Stats&CODE=leaders) ) among wich me. Also a lot of people enjoy your pics and posts. Are you really letting two people ruin it for all the others? I don't think that is the right call Vic. You are not punishing Socksey or Kari with this, just all the others. :(

2. I wonder why you want to remove your posts here? I see Fibsboard as an add-on for Fibs and not like a different thing. It is not sockseys site or kari's site, if anything it is tye site of the contributors or even my site (since i am the main contributor). I don't see you pulling out of Fibs? so why pull out of fibsboard? Because of two moderators? I don't see the difference with two TD's on Fibs. The same point copuld apply so you could stop vistiting Fibs alltogether, but i know you won't do that.

3. point.. i will miss Vics point of view, even though it isn't always my point of view, but then again.. that is what a forum is all about isn't it? I hope you understand what i am saying here.

The quote seemed appropriate at the time, Vic.  This has been a marathon since Saturday with me.  This is Tuesday.  We are both very worn out by now on this subject.

Vic, do whatever you feel like. The same way as u react while youre in a situation to shoot a great pic. Thats what makes You Vic. Next; Cut the nasty shoots and keep the best. Hope i can see more of your fine work here on the board. Allways my first target if i log in here. Lately the main one. Love your work, for what its worth, i wanna mention it. Haven't read the whole thread because it seems social bull for the most. Keep your pride and hit what U see. On film or cards.

Havent even checked if it realy was deleted. Hope it wasn't an if so, I'm glad ive sved some. (those Dutch Mennonites were real hot and you know ive printed the "oldies pic" on a shirt. Youre work is wonderfull. Hope you will keep sharing it with us.

never mind the s*c*kers who dont get what an artists needs are.

Cheers Cees.

You're right, Baldwin!  Vic is an artist and a very good one.  It was unthoughtful of me to forget about the heightened sensitivities of an artist.  

Let me state unequivically here, that I have the highest respect for Vic as an artist, as a friend, as a backgammon player (even when he whines), as a father, and as a person regardless of what I may say or shout at him in the heat of anger.

Fibs and Fibsboard would be a far less interesting place without you, Vic.   Please return to your rightful place soon.

I haven't been on here or on FIBS for a while and the last couple of times I have things have been pretty bitter and confrontational. All I want to say is that I just found your pics Vic and I think they are awesome. You should be allowed to start as many threads as you like for them and if the moderators or the owner have a problem with it then it is up to them to close them. Please don't take them down.

Now this is what I find so entertaining:  I had the impression from this and the rest of vic's post starting this thread that he was done with FIBS board; instead we get more vic-dictiveness concentrated in one thread than I've ever seen.

I guess this is just as good a place as any to respond , since Ms,Socksey Moderator has closed the mini, thread.

Let me say this one more time again , i did not choose the name of that thread it was not my intent  if  mini's should be played or not to be played , it is not my place to say what can or cant happen in fibs.

With that being said all i was trying to get across in that thread was once you undersand the logic of 2away 2away i dont see the point of playing a dead cube game.
Its only me, i know people have said its fun so be it , i belive i can have an opion on a length of tourney, hell some people think any tourney less then 7 points is a joke.

And as for last saturday morning ms Socksey you tell your freakin rat pack you call friends to refrain them selves in shouts with me , if you dont want me to say anyting about your bull _ _ _ _
tourney.
i think we would be just fine .

have a nice life and remeber Ms socks as you awarded my match to backwoods because i backed out the week before , you could also had  banned Vicwad rather then to play him or her.

You just like Kari have your own set of rules to fit what ever the situtation brings , you all should make a club and just hang out toghether seems to me its a perfect fit.

Just leave me the F _ _ _ alone  thank you
