blim Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 Makai, I'm starting to worry about you, dear. Chappy, that is "interesting" news. I'm sure it's because of all the backlash the "powers that be" received because you did what you did. You sure received a lot of support from the users over there (well, most are over here, now, thankfully!) Did you get "re-modded"? Just curious.I do hope you continue your support here along with so many other fine folks who either joined or got "re-aquainted" at BTs. We need the good guys!***And to those who still lurk over there, I read that because so many HJT experts fled, they are thinking of recommending an automatic analyzer. I sure don't want to see someone totally wrecking their computer using that thing, so keep an eye on the HJT logs and send them here please!Liz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

thesidekickcat Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 I wonder what is going on upstairs over there?(oops wrong board for that term.) No one seems to know what to do to deal with what happened.What happened to that mod person not posting (as far as I can tell) your apology? A couple of good souls made up for it. I posted on one of their threads, with a sneaky little item added, all done with what little finesse I could . By the way, this is reunion weekend for the TTV and Tech Support Family to reunite and heal, and guess where it's at folks..... Letter From Chappy to G4 membersP.S. Has anyone noticed Pete's new screen name over there? I had him on my buddy list, and today it has this name instead, Sauron_The_Morbid, ...have no idea what name means...but did a board search and it came up with threads/posts I knew Pete had posted. So it wasn't someone putting themselves in his spot. Pat.God bless everyone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bearskin Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 that is good news chappy even if you don't go back there...maybe you did make a mistake but it was with good intentions and I think they could have worked something out with you...there are still some good people there but I think they lost the best with you and pete. I think this is a much happier place anyway and this board will really benefit from you and pete. the best to you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

thesidekickcat Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 Yes, a public apology from them, PLUS a THANK YOU to Both Chappy and Pete for their long service as mods and helpers, would go a long ways toward healing the board people over the whole mess G4 caused by not planning the changes with intent to fully inform the people of board name change and new show ahead of time.Oops! getting my dander up again. Ok, ok, I will try to simmer down, but this mess could have been prevented if they had done their jobs right or cared about the people. Sigh!!!Pat.God bless everyone.

KeithLDick Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 (edited) Yes, a public apology from them, PLUS a THANK YOU to Both Chappy and Pete for their long service as mods and helpers.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>We all know that *Will never happen*...Since I first started talking to the G4 advertising peeps when the show was very new and I was working in my spare time for Xgaming, I knew they were not on top of anything.. I doubt anything has changed..On another related note, Google Wil Wheaton and the show Arena I think it was..He and his partner ended up hating some of the production staff and wanted out because it was a Mess..I remember he said they couldn't even get *Teams to come and Play* so they (G4) would split up teams they already had and make new ones with new names..And talk about the Servers!!.. I think that was always and will always be a problem with them...Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... I found Wil's post on Slashdot..http://slashdot.org/~CleverNickName/journal/20695Enjoy because now you have someone of Celebrity Status telling you the truth..Not me!!!... Wil Wheaton for Gods sake..

Chappy Posted August 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 Posted by blimI do hope you continue your support here along with so many other fine folks who either joined or got "re-aquainted" at BTs. We need the good guys!Of course Liz, I have always been here, and always will be.I made a commitment to Jeff, and the Besttechie Members, to help make this board the best place it can be.I fully intend to live up to that commitment.Did you get "re-modded"? Just curious.Well, that would be a slap in the face really....and I wouldn't accept even if they did. I have no intentions of helping them whatsoever, in any capacity.by ThesidekickcatPete's new screen name over there? I had him on my buddy list, and today it has this name instead, Sauron_The_Morbid, ...have no idea what name meansIf its the same spelling, Sauron was the once good white wizard that turned evil in The Lord of the Rings.by Martymaswhen you packed your bags it was the next best to sliced breadSay WHAT????When did they start doing that to bread?Geez...I gotta get out more often.Thanks again everyone.
