OT: 2019 OT Non-Ski Resort Thread

[Hit the post]

Heh, I’ve been a member of this forum for just over half the amount of time I’ve been on this planet. I think as a teen I kept my nose fairly clean, but I do remember clashing with a mod over a really stupid post (libel), and I got on my soap box and pleaded free speech and all that jazz. Fortunately for me, he was a very patient fellow who explained freedom of speech doesn’t apply to free enterprise, and that it wouldn’t stop lawyers from suing me or the site.

I still bothers me I missed the chance the ban your butt when I had the brief moment of power (until the powers that be sobered up & realized the mistake they made ).

This is the one I remember

I greatly prefer the Macallan 25 single malt to the Macallan 12. YMMV.

I'll have to try it. Aberlour 12 is one of the nicest sipping scotches I've found in a while, but I don't usually drink scotch. My favourite whiskey in general is Suntory Hibiki

I was a mod before you were! Whose dumb idea did you think it was to put your name forward for mod-ship in the first place?

Even the best of us make mistakes.

So I gotta make friends with a nod to become a mod?

And I guess not argue with trolls

 

[Zombotron]

How did that song from Mulan go, again?

Heh, I got no friends.

My list of criteria was usually pretty simple.

1) Keep your nose clean
2) Be able to find your way to the end of a sentence without getting lost on the way
3) Don’t be a douche



And whoever mentioned Mulan, I now have “make a man out of you” stuck in my head.

Don't worry M2B. The way this boards tends to go thru Mods, even you will become one eventually. And when that happens:

You should run for president of HFVan

Maybe if off-season is boring we should run an election for funsies

I wouldn't want to be a mod even if it was a paid position.

You weren't here when the poster who shall not be named was rampant.
@Hit the post profile picture is legit triggering me.

Being a mod has taught me that trolling is something really hard to distinguish because some people's opinions just suck. That doesn't mean they are trolling though.

I'm thinking of doing another road trip from Southern California up to Vancouver to see a game or two at the end of the month. Which games you guys think I should see? Anaheim and LA?

He's still here. His most recent account that got merged was called "Motte Money." I'm sure he's already back with a new one.

You could be right. I'm really just coming to hang out in my favorite city, but figure I'll check out some Quinn while I'm there.

As I guy who’s had over 30 different warnings and is pretty close to being permanbanned, I think it’s safe to say that I’ll never become a mod.

That third point... .

We all choose to give back to the site in different ways.
