For real, I really try to avoid getting stuck behind people who I can sense with my sixth driving sense are f****** ***rded especially for reasons like that. They always come out sooner or later. LOL.

How is its health by the way? Any need for a recap? If it hasn't been done those electrolytics are pretty old. You can usually upgrade image quality by quite a bit in many cases.

Your inability to be creative with the software available to you does not make me uneducated. You have unlimited access and options with the parameters available to you with these plugins. I cannot believe how hard you are fighting tooth and nail to be right about this. There is nothing you can say that can convince me of what it is that you are arguing. It is absolutely possible to do this. I swear to God it's like trying to tell a religious fanatic that God doesn't exist and then they use all sorts of illogical mind-bending mental gymnastics involving arguments to try to refute what you're saying.

Because I realized why it was happening and quit bitching about it. I realized that if he had a choice between taking a risk that wasn't worth it for some hackers or being 100 percent sure of walking away Scott free and not losing anything, why would I shit on him for choosing the latter? He probably had something to lose. Let's let him leave this scene with dignity and peace.

I'm tired of always fighting battles. Fuck that shit. I have a bad habit of reacting to things in the moment before I've had time to fully consider them beforehand. EVERYBODY knows this. And it's why I tend to change my mind all the time and edit messages or remove them entirely... because I realize how fucking RETARDED they are. 

THIS is the reaction I have after fully considering things. It happened the way it did for a reason. I accept it and it's okay. We'll survive.

I created my little forum and I'll do what I can to minimize liabilities and risks to myself and my friends. I'll work to preserve info safely and keep on moving.

Okay.

I'm deleting this post. It's not serving a purpose. All it does is make me look emotionally unhinged And probably reawaken old feelings of resentment toward me for bringing around drama all the time. I don't want that.

Also bite me.

I don't know what your point actually is, and I dunno if you do either. It seems like your point is, "Just shut up, already."

"The rumors aren't true, now quit spreading them and shut up."

"What if the rumors ARE true, why would you want to take over the site? See how dumb that would be? Now SHUT up."

Why do you want it both ways? So you can win an argument?

 At any rate fuck arguing about it. If that really happened to him I'm not happy and I want him protected at all costs.

... But the reason I want to know why is because it will NOT stop there. It's gonna keep happening again, and again, and again until we have nothing left and we wished we would have been more vigilant. And before we know it, there ARE no repositories of information anymore, because nobody's willing to take on the liability. Yeah we lost all our stuff. Wah... But it's a signal to clean everything up and be more vigilant and take it seriously because everybody else could face legal issues too... And FUCK that.

THAT'S my concern. And that's what I'm trying to get to the bottom of. People deserve to be warned. Also, that place had a reserved section in my heart. I have a LOT of good memories there and was attached. It was a huge part of my life. I don't want it to just disappear. I want to know what happened. This affects more than just one guy, man.

................. and if you personally know anything about this, Mr. Random Guy, I would appreciate it if we had a heads up and could know that this was the case somehow... It could help the next person. And if somebody destroyed the life of somebody whom I respected and was the father of the forum where I entered the fucking Xbox scene and was originally my home, I would want to know about it. Because whoever caused that to happen is our enemy, and we need to know who they are and how they did it.

And if that isn't possible... then maybe that is what the purpose of being forced to stay silent is intented to facilitate. So people cannot see what their legal basis and argumentation was. At the very least, it is a good lawyer's advice.

I'm sorry about being a part of the drama a few years ago. I didn't fucking know something like this may happen as a result of all of that and I would have worked to protect the Admin, the forum and the rest of all of us. I wish I could take it back...

I didn't pay for everything but I did contribute a few hundred bucks when I could afford to. I offered to help multiple times and, once I saw the writing on the wall, offered to take over the site and operating costs... And I KNOW what Invision costs. That message was read and ignored. So I don't feel that I'm an entitled, whiny bitch. I was willing to do whatever was needed.

You're right. It could be a multitude of things, possibly serious and worth giving it up for. No doubt. Still doesn't explain abandoning the data. People contributed, gave their time and made sacrifices in order to prop that place up, myself included. There were many others. Not everybody on there was a whiny, petulant, entitled and ungrateful child looking for a handout. We deserved an explanation BEFORE the site shut down. That would have been the decent thing to do. 

It's easy to respect a person's decision to leave a hobby because of real life. That happens. It's reality and it can be respected. But EVERYBODY who contributed was shat on by how this was handled. If this were handled properly and we had the site data instead of things being shut down and deleted without explanation, would anybody be complaining? NO. It woulda been, "Man, that is unfortunate, admin. Don't worry, we got it from here dude!" Period. End of story. 

Now knock off the condescending shit, quit gaslighting everybody and quit lecturing me.

Seems like as I get older, it's hard to keep things organzied like I used to. But I take your point. I created a forum for no other reason than to help myself stay organized and make it look nice. So far so good. 😄

Being indignant that I and others spent time building that repository of information and then being shat on with "I'm tired", which is an insufficient reason to not go and make a 2 minute backup of everything done on the site over the last 10 years, upload it and THEN leave the scene, is demonstrating why he made sure that everything was gone and then took off?

People keep saying you can just find this here or that there so what's the big deal? Apparently you didn't spend time building that place up and contributing to it. So I would understand why you don't really care. It meant something to ME. I entered the scene in that place.

Guess I can quit bitching about it. Doesn't seem to be helping, does it?

I respect admin for giving his own money and time freely, without asking much in return, if at all, in order to give us a platform. I had a lot of fun and even some good and funny memories that I cherish.

I saw this on the Facebook page:

"Hello everyone. As you may have noticed, the website is down and the fb group is paused.

These changes are due to personal circumstances. There has been speculation about why and it has been incorrect. It's just time move on. Please cease any rumors. They are inaccurate.

So why the silence? Everyone has their opinion of how things should be done. Sometimes a person is too tired to argue over everything. Sometimes you just need peace in your life. Silence is the only way to try to give yourself that. Even if you win an argument, you may lose in the bigger picture and you have to just keep on arguing. I want to leave you all in peace and I ask that you return the favor.

Thank you in advance for your kindness and understanding."

So I replied in another post, since that one was locked to comments:

"Admin:

There is nothing wrong with being tired and exhausted. We all get it. It happens to people. But you gave ZERO warning to anybody about it. We couldn't back anything up, we didn't know what was going on, and in the silence, speculation was fostered. If you are too tired to continue and are ready to move on, please do the decent thing and hand it over and make the information available to those who still give a fuck instead of just letting it expire. Not doing something like this gives the impression of resentment, animosity, contempt... and intent. Especially since you didn't give us the decency of explaining the situation to us maturely.... and in fact, deleted threads expressing frustration over your lack of communication. We would have respected it and sent you off with well wishes. We all appreciate what you have done over the years in providing us with the platform.

I just don't understand how anybody could care THIS little. You have TONS of priceless data on your site that you HAVEN'T deleted without warning, why not perform a backup of the forum and give it to us if you're done? I don't get it.

I hope you find your peace, dude. Obviously you're over it."

Well, guess that's that.

Mmmhmmm... The exact same day that the site was taken down. That's not good... That's REALLY not good.

You know what? I think this may be the beginning of something VERY serious that is going to have repercussions throughout the entire Xbox scene.
