This was so offensive that it did not even last five minutes on The CCC.

Goliath said…
Yeah. Really really BAAAD!!! Should have been talking about how you were itching to pour some lead into some
criminal. (sarcasm)
hoosiertaxpayer said…
I saw it and didn't see anything wrong with it. They do have a rule about promoting blogs though. GG has always been fair to me, some of the other moderators aren't as tolerant...
Goliath said…
You are right Ht. But, it is a very stupid and shortsighted rule. Meanwhile, you can post to ANY site
that isn't porno from anywhere else in the nation...so long as it isn't
local. Shows weakness in my opinion.
Goliath said…
GG is fair. I do not put her in with the rest...but she has smacked me back too. Still, she at least has some common sense.
SquarePeg said…
Against all odds, huh?
Lisa Smith said…
Both GG and Professor are huge Mike Moore fans G....you lost before you even entered the gate. Sawry..we love ya!!

But even the Prof. sent me PM saying he likes my posts, because I stir things up....
Goliath said…
Against odds? No. GG and Goliath go back a ways.

I respect her.
Lisa Smith said…
Professor used to tell me the same thing HT, we chatted on Yahoo Messenger many times. All was good until he let it slip that someone had mailed him pictures of me, my husband and my son. When I got upset and said that was crossing the line....everything changed.
SquarePeg said…
I have the utmost respect for GG and the Prof. Both are fair and good folks.
Goliath said…
Enough of this. They can ban Gaw if they want to.

Doesn't matter. I respect GG too.
Lisa Smith said…
Respect them all you want. What they did to Matt and Brian's posts..was not respectful. IMO

I love the way they always tell you what they did, but never have a valid reason "why" they did it. They want the public to participate in their forum but they change the rules whenever it suits them, not cool.
hoosiertaxpayer said…
Like I said they do have a rule about linking to blogs, and it's been there from day one. Which is fine, not that I totally agree with it.

They are the moderators and how they run it I'm totally cool with it. Even though I have had words with the Prof. I have the utmost respect for him and he is very intelligent and GG is tops in my book.

They do a great job handling it and keeping it professionally well done...

And everyone of the warnings, I deserved...
Anonymous said…
I wonder if I posted it without the link here if I would be OK? MAybe I will try that. I have actually replied to GG's email and I will see what she has to say before I do anything.

I was told to take off my blog link once because of comments I and others made about Abbysnana on my blog. I was told that I wouldn't be allowed to link to any site that bashed any members of the CCC. That made sense to me and, anyway, it's their forum and they can set whatever rules they like. After AN was off the CCC, I was allowed to post my blog link again. Since there is a lot of bashing of certain CCC members on Goliath's sites, I'm assuming that is the reason for the removal. I personally agree with that policy. They want to encourage membership and commenting there and links to sites that bash their members would likely dissuade a lot of people from joining and commenting, figuring the same thing could happen to them.

One thing I’ve learned from this comment exchange so far…never send a private message to Brian.
~ChopperWoman~ said…
The thing is ... Brian wasn't trying to draw readers away from CCC or bash anyone on any of the local blogs and forums. He simply wanted to let others know about the game. When it comes to being "fair" (as well as tackful), Brian wins hands down over all of us!
cindiloohoo said…
Just trying to reason out why the post was deleted, Chopper, based on my own experience and the reason I was told to delete my blog link in the past by the former owners of the CCC.
Lisa Smith said…
Ht and Cindi, you guys are safe to say whatever you want and you will always remain on the CCC, that has always been clear and kudos to you for that, but not everyone has been fortunate enough to receive the same courtesy. Whether or not I deserved to be banned is a matter of opionion and water under the bridge as far as I am concerned, but I know of several other members since me that were banned for trivial reasons or because of who they were associated with and in my book, that was very unfair. You are right HT, as we have been reminded time and time again, it is their forum to do with as they wish and the way they run it will determine their success or failure down the road. I am sure GG and Prof are nice enough folks, I don't think anyone was questioning that, but their actions in the past few days have brought into question their ability to be unbiased. Oh well, let us carry on and get back to the game, so much better than all this quibbling...(did I spell that right Cindi??)
cindiloohoo said…
Yes, you did spell that correctly, AN! Good for you! I know you're going for a degree right now, so sharpening your spelling skills will only help you to obtain that praiseworthy goal.

I don't know about HT, but I've had my share of warnings on the CCC, and, as he said about his, I always felt I deserved them, as I was well aware of the CCC posting policies. I didn't complain about it, but took it to be what I deserved, since I knowingly and willingly broke the clearly stated rules.
Lisa Smith said…
Actually, my second degree, and believe it or not Cindi, most of the time it is finger errors...making straight A's is tough, I work hard for them. I guess following the "clearly stated rules" is easy, it's the unwritten rules or the ones that are newly made up to fit their own purpose are the ones I always had a tough time with. Like I said, water under the bridge.
cindiloohoo said…
It may be water under the bridge, as you keep repeating, but the water seems to be stagnant and trapped under that bridge for some, rather than flowing on downstream.

As new, unforeseen situations come up, any moderator of a blog or forum will have to consider new methods/rules to deal with them. People aren't always perfect in their judgment and can only do what they think is best at the time.
Lisa Smith said…
Okay, we get it Cindi, let's move on. geesh.
Anonymous said…
Just for the record I am still in conversation with GG to see if one of us can post something on The CCC about Survivor Quest without putting a link to this site on the post. That seems to be the big sticking point so I am hopeful that we can share it if we do not put a link in there.
Lisa Smith said…
Maybe if you offer a donation...they might consider it. Money talks. :)
cindiloohoo said…
I will "move on" when I decide to or when Goliath asks me to - unless, of course, Goliath has now become a wholly owned subsidiary of Lisa Smith, Inc., and has given over authority to you to tell people on his sites to "move on" or "go somewhere else" to comment, as has been happening more and more frequently lately.
Lisa Smith said…
Cindi, smile and be happy for at least one day, can you try. This is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice, I will rejoice and be glad it is and be glad it is...this the day that the Lord has made......(sing along), it is so good for those age lines on the face.
Goliath said…
Age lines? How about necrotic brain tissue and massive scar tissue circumventing the neck?
Lisa Smith said…
sorry G...only hope for you is the tanning bed.
cindiloohoo said…
I am smiling and I am very happy, AN. It's good to see the real you coming out into the open again. Age lines? Not-so-sly derogatory commentary on what you guess to be a person's physical appearance? Now that's classic AN, right there! I wonder how long it will take you to have a little “oopsie, my bad” moment and make good on your subtle threat to “out” SquarePeg? Anyone care to bet?
Lisa Smith said…
oh my God Cindi, get over yourself. I have age lines for God's sake. I don't claim to be perfect and yes I will get pissed off occasionally. I am not the one focusing on you, it is the other way around. Don't you realize that other people have messaged me and ask me what your problem is??? I did not "threaten" to "out" SP and could care less who they are. The "real me" has always been the "real me"...I said I would try to be more sensitive to others, obviously you are more intent on staying the mean self you have always been. Stop trying to psychoanalyze every thing I post, you are just making an idiot out of yourself. You don't like me, I get that, I don't particularly care and my life will still go on. If you don't like what I post, stop reading it, that is pretty simple. I am not going anywhere, ever. capice.

I know something you can both agree on.

Liberal Hussy sure is one pretty lady.
Lisa Smith said…
I trust your opinion is credible Matt. ;)
Amy said…
Matt,
I will agree with you on that, she is lovely, and bright.

GG is not fair, in my opinion. I have had occasion to hear from her in the past, and find her to be a bit on the grumpy side :) :) CCC is biased, claims to be a forum serving the community (BS) but it is not. I read it. Why you may ask, because every time I do, it reinforces my opinion that most of those who post on CCC are a bit dull. I do not mean boring. I think that there are some who post on CCC, who should not. It does not do a thing for their credibility. If you want to be viewed as a public figure who reaches out to the community to communicate and answer questions find a different way to do it. Like Goliathandwimmens.
Amy said…
Or Abbysnana, All Counties Chatter.
hoosiertaxpayer said…
Wow !! this whole thing has become a perfect example of why the CCC doesn't allow links to blogs. Like I said before GG is more than fair, as is the Prof.

Everyone is free to post almost anything other than obscenities, slander, slanderous allegations, links to blogs the "Terms of Use" are pretty clear.

If you bad mouth the moderators on your or other blogs, reproduce "personal" messages, use multiple screen names, look for and reveal identities, make nasty and obscene comments about members, their personal lives, and their appearance. You leave them no other choice, than to ban you.... And why would anyone think any different ???
Goliath said…
HT. Links to GAW have to be banned because I do, in fact, criticize the actions and words of NSHBM. A member of CCC.

However this is not merely 'badmouthing'. These are comments reflecting that people feel they are treated unfairly on the CCC. In fact, they are and it's not hard to see.

I have heard many times that there is a rule against personal attacks, yet personal attacks on people not in favor with the mods such as Matt Chinn are apparently ignored. If it were an isolated instance you could accept the claims "we can't watch it all the time" and I would believe that as I know that task very well. But, instead what I see on a more routine basis is that anti Tom Galligan posters are allowed freedom and Pro Tom Galligan people are warned or deleted etc.,

I could be wrong but this is how it seems to me. I also find the rules
(like all rules) used for selective
enforcement. For instance, the Post by Pesty V2 did not post a link
to any blog. It did comment on the fact that Matt's post was positive and asked why it was taken down.
For that...the post was deleted
with the warning "do not question
the mods in public".

I have been around and I know the sound of a little tyrant when I hear it. Is that 'badmouthing' the
moderator. Perhaps it is but in my view it's deserved.

Nobody likes being treated unfairly.
Lisa Smith said…
You are right Goliath. I can recall a certain "Blog" that used to make it a habit of making fun of and criticizing a certain member of the CCC because she was opinionated and her Avatar was thought to resemble Sarah Palin. I remember this poster complaining about it to the Administrators and was specifically told they had no control over what was on other blogs or forums. Oh how that changed when my blog appeared on the scene. Double-standards, but I don't expect certain other bloggers to agree with me I am just stating my opinion. Nonetheless, I refuse to let others dictate what I say or do not say on my own blog and forum and that is all I have to say about that!!!!
hoosiertaxpayer said…
I'm not sure which moderator you're referring to, my comments were directed at GG and the Prof. as they are the only ones I've had any contact with.

You're right about the political leanings being an influencing factor into some of the calls made as far as deleting posts. NSBHM pretty much has a free reign and to the point of being "over the top" a lot of the time.

On the same behalf your forum could be said to heavily lean to the anti- Moore side, but I will give you credit,, I'm not aware of any bias in your moderation but you do have a version of NSBHM on your forum as well.

As far as YMC he has a youthful brashness (that I like) that probably rubs older members and moderators the wrong way at times.

My references were mainly about being banned by the CCC not the moderation. I would suggest you contact GG or the Prof. I'm sure they will answer you honestly...
hoosiertaxpayer said…
If you're referring to me and comparing what I posted to what you posted. that's like comparing apples to hand grenades...C'mon you can't be serious...
Goliath said…
Let us agree that there are issues and challenges in moderating the comments of a wide variety of posters and different viewpoints reflected in blogs.

I have been corresponding with three moderators at CCC and expressing my views.

I have no desire to return to old fights and try and refight them.

Let us consider what the next Survivor Quest Challenge may be ...and who will be the next person to leave the game.

Only one thing is certain. It will not be Square Peg.
Lisa Smith said…
I remember being very hurt at that time HT because I was new on the scene. Not that you would care, but over time I have hardened up because I discovered if you can't beat'em, join'em. You know what HT, I learned an important thing in Sunday school class once, a person can steal a dollar and another can steal a million dollars. No matter how you want to glamorize it, stealing is stealing.
Anonymous said…
Wow, I've been gone for most of the weekend and I was astonished to see their were 52 comments here!!

The only thing I'm going to say about the CCC, is, they are a little too much like a clique. I've always been one to choose friends outside the circle so I guess that is why I don't participate on that forum.

Anyways, I do love reading this one!!

Most people I have seen on here are fair and friendly!! :)

Goliath it is funny you mention NSBHM earlier. I asked GG if I could put my post back up without the link to Goliath's site? All I would say is that we were participating in this game. Anyway with no link I should be OK to post it. After all NSBHM made reference to your site when he started a thread about who should be the next Democrat Party Chair a few months ago. He basically admitted that he got the idea after reading Goliath's Blog. If he can do that then we should be able and at least talk about your blog even if we can't link to it. Anyway I am still waiting on a response from her. I don't want to overstep my authority so I won't just post it without her permission.
Amy said…
Didn't someone post on CCC when we were in the midst of Challlenge One, to vote for their facebook page? Did that post get deleted too?
~ChopperWoman~ said…
Amy, I tried to post the link as "Linda Adams Human", which is my facebook name. (I added my maiden name so old classmates can recognize me) When I clicked to post the comment it came out as being posted by the CCC.

For a short amount of time last spring I was an administrator of the CCC facebook page. Apparently they never removed me as an administrator of that site. If you are an admin on that page you can not post comments as an individual. I only figured that out when I tried to post as myself.

During the first challenge I picked up several viruses on my old computer. Even after cleaning up my computer I spent 2 weeks experiencing computer freeze. The owners of CCC probably never realized that I made a post about the first challenge because since I asked to be taken off the CCC staff months ago there are rarely any updates being done there.

Now that I have my new computer set up and can actually navigate facebook again I will remove the post myself. I wasn't trying to start any sh*t. I was just having fun with the first challenge. Between picking up viruses that trashed my old computer and complaints about my post, the first challenge doesn't seem so fun to me anymore. :(
Goliath said…
Sorry you had that trouble CG. And I am going to try and steer us clear of trouble with the CCC.
Amy said…
The first challenge was fun, I enjoyed it too.
I was not complaining about your post, I was asking if someone had posted about GAW survivor game on CCC and wondered if it got deleted too.

Sounds like you got a computer up and running.
That is good. Its one thing when we choose not to use our computer, but its quite different when the computer chooses not to cooperate, frustrating.
Anonymous said…
Just for the record I have gone over these odds and I am really trading at a premium here. I may be eliminated from the game by 6:30 this evening. I think 3-1 is crazy.
