    Nathan just took another suspension. I think Babs has it in for him.

    You do realize that Wizard is basically officially in charge of Forum Administration, don't you? He's head of content for WoO/WoV and the Forum constitutes content.

    As he mentioned, he announced himself to me directly, otherwise I wouldn't have known yet. Like I said before, I'm not, "Gunning," for anyone, I don't go IP checking every single new poster.

    I have two people at SciGames that I have asked, but I'm not terribly high on their priority list, I can't imagine. I might ask a third. They'll get to me when they get to me.

    It's not the topic of that thread, and the matter has been resolved.

    I have no idea, I haven't even been on yet today. You have a lot more time to be on the Forums around the clock every single day than I do. You should become an Administration since you are a member in good standing, you also seem to think you would do a better job at it than we do, feel free to PM me your application.

    Yeah, some plays involve running coin-in. You might know about some of them if you spent some actual time discussing gambling rather than your obsession with the moderation of a gambling forum.

    I'm reporting you for Personal Insult, Ozzy, and for making offensive false accusations.

    I agree 100%, I don't know why anyone should think I, "Get off," on Suspending someone. I also agree that anyone who posts over there and abides by the Rules, even if a sock, is not going to get noticed by me because I don't go out of my way looking for excuses to Suspend people.

    That's also my opinion, and I never worked with the person behind the handle as any handle other than WizardofNothing. I don't technically KNOW he is StrictlyAP and there is also not an IP Match which, I believe, has always been my standard for Banning a sock barring an outright admission.

    I also think it is questionable whether or not StrictlyAP's welching should have been made a public affair, but that's because I've always been one to settle my issues with people man to man. I also do not agree with StrictlyAP's ban at the time, and I have publicly stated that I do not agree and was not consulted on it. I don't disagree with it enough to make a fervent argument for it to be overturned, but I do think it sets a bad precedent in that now the board should occasionally try to resolve things that occurred because of two peoples' communication on the board or someone can end up banned.

    Anyway, I didn't want to see anyone else banned, so I mediated the thing. I also wanted to resolve it in a fashion that would end accusations, demands and dirty laundry being aired out publicly. There are plenty of other gambling forums (lower case is deliberate) where that sort of drama can be found.

    It is as it always has been and as it always will be, I want to talk about gambling. That's why I joined a gambling Forum and subsequently endeavored successfully to become an Administrator on one.

    Nothing has "ended," as your draconian action prevented closure and left serious questions unanswered.

    Thanks ... for nothing.

    Listen, if you really care that much, here's the short version: Now, I would appreciate if you ask a similar question at WoV and I will answer tomorrow. WoN presented an offer than I then conferred to Nathan, the first offer from WoN was immediately accepted, and that's all there is to know. So, I'm guessing it wasn't unfair, because Nathan accepted immediately. I did nothing to prod, I did nothing to convince, I presented the offer exactly as it was presented to me and that offer was accepted.

    I'm not really concerned, just giving you a bit of grief. :)

    Frankly, those two deserve each other.

    The End.

    Again I dont care of Nathan was given zero or $100. I can see some argument for both. I'm not burning to know what she settled for. If I wanted to know, I would just ask one or both in private. Me knowing or not is not my point.

    If everyone involved thought it was fair, why all the secrecy? If everyone thought it was fair, everyone would want to disclose just how fair it was. I can't imagine it was Nathans idea to keep it secret unless she has more to hide. IMO Nathan has the type of personality in which she would agree with anything put in front of him, fair or not. If she is the type of person she portrays on the forum, other than normal skepticism, I think she would/could be easily tricked and or manipulated(not suggesting that's the case, I was just pointing that out).

    She also had some motivation to put this all behind her given the embarrassing circumstances surrounding this situation. I wouldn't doubt she would accept taking anything, or nothing, if she thought WON would lay off her a bit, and if she thought a MOD(you) might show some future mercy/leniency on her for playing ball (Fuck, I keep on having to turn HE into SHE and him into her) .

    It made no sense this needed to be negotiated in private the first place. We are talking about a $100 gift card for fuck sake.


    I'm not even sure why she got suspended all of a sudden now?????????????????????


    Someone pointed out she has now made another account here in the slots thread. Guys name, imagine that.

    I haven't read much of this Nathan character. But from what I have read this person appears to be somewhat slow/dimwitted. I suppose that pisses some people off. He is certainly an easy target. Call me a sucker but I just don't have the heart to crack the whip on a person like that.

    The question is: is the "dim-witted" posting a troll, or the real thing?

    I posted about the qualitative differences I noticed in Nathan's posts: most look they were written by a naive child, whereas others are polished, grammatically correct and use "big words" correctly to communicate more complicated thoughts.

    What could *possibly* explain such an inconsistency?

    Because no one on that site would leave it alone. It would pick up where it left off with all the insults and bullshit everyone else brought to the table whether anyone wanted to read their shit or not.
    I read that forum site after reading the reports here and you are obsessed with sock puppets. Everybody is a sock puppet to you.
    Did you have a bad experience with a Lambchop puppet when you were a child? Did your older sister torture you with a Curious George hand puppet? Seriously, look at how many posts you do with the veiled sock puppet cracks all the time. And I only read 1/3 of your off topic stuff here and there.
    But I don't have a problem keeping that weird shit away from all the good stuff you post about gambling.
    Carryon.

    NO, I was not molested by my uncle Chester(Uncle Freddy actually) who lured me in the closet with a cookie-monster sock puppet and candy or anything like that. I didn't get to be special and have an "our little secret" that turned me all confused N gay and shit. My cousin(she) must have had all the special uncle Freddy fun. She was a stuck up little princess bitch, but that's ok because I fucked all her cute girl friends. My Grandma was a bit suspicious, and rightfully so. She eventually caught me and my cousins church friend going at it one time. Grandma started screaming and yelling as she chased and hit me with the broom out of the house.

    Come to think of it.... my cousin.... she really is kinda fucked up now.

    Obsessed is a very strong word. I have explained a number of times why I dislike sock puppets. If I was just some casual gambler reading the forum occasionally I wouldn't give much thought about it or care.

    If there was no value on these forums I would not spend any time reading or posting.
    If I was not an AP I cant imagine spending much time at all. I get both value and entertainment on the forums, so its +EV for me.

    There are People like buzzard(WEB OF TRUST WTF? Ya, like a spider in a web) who continue to make new aliases, that doesn't bother me at all because I know he's not up to anything nefarious or whatever. I was even confused one time and PMed his sock regarding his BJ post, not knowing it was him. I don't notice because I'm not obsessed and looking for it as you may think. I have noticed other guys who have made more than one account, yet I haven't said anything, nor do I care.

    Did you have a thing for Lambchop to? Ted wears a ten gallon hat and im sure George shits in it.

    May 21st 2013 was a very dark day for WOV. It's the day Beached whale, Barbara, Barbara W, middle aged female joined. Here are her very first words to the predominately male forum: "New poster; please be gentle". Can you imagine? If there was ever a definition of hipocrite...it is the Beached whale.

    This poor excuse of a mod has no respect for the site's owners, her fellow mods or the members. Once again she has shown it by walking all over Mission and suspending Nathan for absolutely nothing. And Mission just takes it...again. Mission was the one who was monitoring Nathan closely. Mission was the one who put in the time. Mission had it under control. But that wasn't good enough for the Beached whale middle aged female.

    In her crusade to get Nathan, in her frustration that he was abiding by the rules, she could no longer contain herself. She swooped in, behind everyone's back and suspended Nathan on a made up offense. Yes, a big middle finger to MIssion.

    As for Mission, he tells the board to leave Nathan alone and threatens suspension to those who do not heed his warnings. Bill Ryan, WIzardofnothing and others laugh in Mission's face and continue to troll, insult, bully and harass Nathan while Mission sits on his hands. Wizardodnothing even called Nathan an asshole.

    So to recap: Nathan continues to get trolled, Mission issues warnings to the offenders, they thumb their noses at Mission and Nathan is the one suspended by Beached whale who thumbs her nose at Mission.

    More members are speaking out about the actions of the mods. And the mods, who always have something to say, remain silent.

    Nathan wasn't a good fit on that board.

    After all, not just ANYONE can be a WoVer.

    Damn, that wasn't PC, was it?

    Fuck it: truth hurts.

    Nathan was a clueless dildo.

    Adios.

    It's not about secrecy, it's about ending all of the demands for pictures, personal information, arguing and nonsense relating not just to the Gift Card, but also to Nathan, herself, in general.
