Misc WizardOfVegas Forum is Dying

you come off like someone Larry and 1BB say you are.>>>>as per boz which got him suspended

So of course manboy apologizes after 7 days. Let the customer stew for a week and then apologize. Give the excuse that it was the heat of the moment...and then wait 7 days to apologize

Explanation- the manboy who in the past could get away with telling customers"dont let the door hit you in the ass".....cannot anymore. This thread has crystallized in peoples minds how horrible he treats people....and to pour gasoline on the fire, KJ has commented here, basically verifying what I and others have been saying on this thread since sept by explaining his personal case.
All of a sudden there is credibility. This thread is on fire. Visits are sky rocketing. And people are nodding their heads. So after 7 days of behind the scenes negative comments directed at him by his members and maybe bosses or mods.......he issues an apology.
However like LP9 has pointed out.....boz is just one poor victim. There are many others.
If he thinks people are that blind to think that a single apolgy to one single person is cleaning......think again.
Someone who really feels he did something wrong doesnt let the offended party twist in the wind for a week before apologizing.
I bet he had to be convinced mightily that he did something wrong.

By acting like he did....he actually reinforced what boz originally said. He does act like we say he does....my reporting of his behavior has always been accurate. No one has yet caught me in a lie.

 

LP9,
That's looking at it from a point of view of someone who has already formed a strong opinion of the Wiz.

Your reasoning could be correct but may be the Wiz has gotten some pressures from his own board and realized that he might have been hasty in his judgment.

 

I disagree but thats fair enuff.........................your position is very valid & we can agree to disagreee...
I guess only time will tell..........

 

I am glad we can disagree in an amicable fashion.

Trust me on this though, I am not on either side of the argument.

 

I'm seriously glad that Kewlj posts here...

he gives the accusations credibility because he's the one member who is univerally liked & respected by everyone involved.........except for Mike Shackleford aka Steve Urkel and Qfit of course....


this thread is realy resonating with people and gaining steam...........over 30,000 views......WOW!!!

 

On Wizard's Boz apology: If that was the first time Mike had said something of the "don't let the door hit you or in ass" or "you are welcome to not come back" nature, his apology would seem much more sincere. But when you repeatedly say things indicating that you don't care if good members leave or not, it's hard to think this much of a revelation.

But it's a start. Good for Mike realizing Boz was/is a member worth having. And good that Mike made the apology. I get the feeling admitting he was wrong is very difficult for him. But since you are showing a little humility Michael, I am all ears.

 

Thank you, LP9. You have been very welcoming towards me. It is much appreciated.

 

lol, talk about a black-or-white view of the world. so if someone doesn't agree with you, they are either the owner of the forum or a peon? no in-between gray area in your world view, huh? so since you defend wov every chance you get, that means you are either mike shakelford or his peon? and because our opinions are different, i need to think of you as an asshole? see how ridiculous that sounds? i consider myself a free thinker and i'm never afraid to speak my mind. but i certainly don't consider myself an asshole, i just call it as i see it and you'll never see me insult someone, like you seem to love to do. but i'm the asshole, right?

 

Nothing, is short on cogent commentary and long on vulgarities. Sometimes at least a sprinkling of facts and cogent opinion gives someone credibility and or validity. Yet Nothing is devoid of the necessary ingredients to be taken seriously

 

I don't give him an ounce of credit. A real man has no trouble apologizing and admitting he was wrong.

What we have here is an insecure, socially inadequate, controlling boy in a man's body...a manboy. He shows all the classic symptoms....disrespecting his family by posing with barely clothed women young enough to be his daughter, cavorting with prostitutes, bragging about the unicycle, mountain climbing, bike riding and then shoving videos of it down everyone's throat. Like no one else does those things. Doling out punishment to satisfy his twisted needs. All classic.

As far as the apology goes, I say too little too late. If it was a one time thing...sure. But this is manboy's SOP and it won't change because he can't change.

I hope Boz tells him to shove or just never goes back and if that happens I hope someone over there stands up and reminds everyone why they lost another 5 year member. Boz's call...I would understand either way.

 

ok, gotcha, thanks for letting me know. i don't know him from other forums, so i wasn't sure if he was having a bad day or if he's always like this. it's good to know who i'm dealing with to see whether they are worth my time. i just went through a bunch of his posts here, and based on that alone, he's not.

 

You can fuck yourself too Mike, your forum is shit... And filled with people who got kicked off the board they want to be on.... Something surely to be proud of

 

Dancer read Shack's breakdown on the Pennsylvania BJ promo this morning. He's on the phone to that casino as we speak:

Casino exec "Yes, may I help you?"
Dancer "No. But I can help you! I'm a gambling consultant from Las Vegas, Nevada! I just read about your black jack promo. Do you know how bad you are going to get killed on that promotion? This one is for free. But would you be interested in hiring me as your gambling consultant in the future?"

uhm, this ain't "my" forum. i think that's your problem right there. you think wov is "yours" just because you participate there, so you defend it like a gangsta defending his turf and blindly attack what you perceive as the enemy gangstas (us). in other words, with zero objectivity. i've got no beef with wov because i was never a member there, and i'm not attached to this place just because i was one of its first 100 members and participate on occasion. it's just a forum, big guy.

uhm, i wasn't kicked off of any boards and none of the founding members were either that i know of. the fact that you keep coming back here to tell us this site and its users are shit tells me someone is jelly. very jelly. like peanut butter & jelly.

 

Nothing, has no credibility. Never has any of the original members of this thread claimed that we wanted to return. I have specifically stated that even if amnesty was given...I would not return and help that site make money with my time and effort in posting.

So I guess you can say he is a proven liar.

When people with self respect are mistreated, and when people with self respect continually see others mistreated......they generally dont leave the door open to put themselves in the position to be mistreated again. Fuck me once shame on you....fuck me twice, shame on me

There is only one person on this thread that has left the door open to being fucked twice.

So the generalization in nothing's quote is just a plain lie.

 

if you've got that kind of experience, then what the fuck are you doing slinging insults in this thread? it makes you look petty. go post some real shit instead of getting bogged down here. there are a lot more users on this site than the ones you see participating in this thread. then again, maybe you're just full of shit and don't have much experience at all to share...

 

Mike I came in here basically because Freddy or Larry I don't remember which one of the asshole said but they were insulting me... Then I saw all the nonsense. I'm all for talking about gambling and I've done more then my share to help out other members.... But my opinion is this thread is really junk but gets the most talk because of Freddy and Larry, who clearly never added anything gambling related in the other forum and only wanted to talk about the suspension list.

I add plenty on the other forum and would add here if the topics were real and not nonsense - I've always been one to lend a hand - both to members that are currently on this site AND others

 

Nothing lies again....IF HE GOES TO THE WOV SITE....and clicks on my name...he will see over 90 percent of my posts were on other topics than suspension list issues.

Another lie.....zero credibility....however he sure can use the word "fuck" in many different ways. Kudos to his parents.

 

i understand you coming over to defend your name and honor, but then you started insulting everyone here, even me who you don't know and who never insulted you.

well, i for one look forward to your gambling input here as i have a lot of respect for people willing to share their knowledge with those less fortunate. i'll be keeping an eye out for your posts and have added you to my follow list here to keep track of your posts. i just hope it's less petty bullshit and more gambling related or i will have to unfollow you!
