You would think Fred was smarter than this.. Oh Well..

[WA4TM]

I decided to go over there and see what they were FORBIDDING now :mrgreen: and came across this page..

You would think he would know how to make a list, this is a real pain in the a$$ to read...Not that I wanted to read it, but if I did I wouldn't bother trying with this mess....

OK,,,,, Rant over, back to you regular programing

[W3WN]

Holy smokes. (Is that the brand the Pope buys?)

What an unreadable mess.

[WX7P]

I can't believe I'm saying this, but Fred is right about this one. There's too much garbage on their swap net from idiots.

[NQ6U]

What he said was all pretty reasonable. How he published it pretty much sucked. I guess he doesn't know how to use the [list] tag.

I don't have a problem with his position on this one. Just the presentation.

[N8YX]

Paragraphs - how do they work?

[KC2UGV]

How do I make linefeed?

[WA4TM]

I don't have a problem with WHAT he said, it was HOW it was said... If I wasn't clear on this before.. It looks like it was put in a big bucket and stirred, when he got tired of stirring he just dumped it on a page...

Edit: I should have done a screen capture while I was there..... "Proof for later":hyper:

Why don't one of you nice helpful Islanders reformat it for him?

Sure. And don't forget the thanks one can expect... 6 month time out.

[W3MIV]

Screw Fred and all who fly within him.

[KG4CGC]

I suppose if you go out of your way to make an a$$ out of yourself ...

[KJ3N]

So how do you explain the continued presence of Charles and Burt?

No thanks. I have no intentions of doing Fred any favors. He can fix his own code. And even if I did, right now I don't have the time.

I just suspect that if anyone from here volunteered for the job, they would learn after the fact that no good deed goes unpunished. And that it's more likely that certain ZedMods would rather shoot the messenger than admit that Fred fouled up.

[KG4CGC]

Aww, they're good ole boys. Don't let their "funnin" git to ya!

I'm kidding. It is possible that it was written by some admin. Perhaps even Frank.

I know Zed has its personality issues. I still try to remain Zed neutral. This is in keeping in the spirit that the Island is not The Anti-Zed.

charles must give very good knob jobs

They're master knob polishers?

Understood.

And I'm not anti-Zed per se. Just not happy with certain people and how they (over)react to things.

That place is SO not what it was 5 or so years ago. Hardly recognizable.

I've spent a lot of time there since at least 2001. There were plenty of crabby cry babies then and there are plenty now. This Post Bush Era that we live in now is merely a reflection of the damage done since January 20th 2001.

[ki4itv]

Dupe dupe
dupe from the dope

[ki4itv]

It's the cast of characters I miss Charles. They've successfully run the vast majority of truly interesting and seriously funny people out of there, totally dumbing the place down to a moronic comedy of errors.
I don't visit much anymore...just the occasional link from here.
It's sad, the community is merely a shell of its former self.
I find it hard to blame Bush for that. They did it 'all by themselves'.

Including from it's moderator...Oh wait I guess you covered that one when you said idiots.

i think using the word idiots to describe them is an insult to idiots.

[N7RJD]

He has his trained staff monkeys for that. At least on of them has the word "Editor" in their title,
maybe it's time they get to editing.

Hello.

I read that, and can actually understand it.
Perhaps this is what is wrong with me, just too much time spent over at the Zed.
I post Zed rehab group may be in order.
But I think the 2 year banning was somewhat effective. ;)

Some of whom have been invited here, but for some reason think there are too many sharks in these waters.

Burt and Ernie split up?
