Good to see you, dude. Sorry I didn't get around to this yesterday...spent my meager writing skills composing an email to my eldest son's teacher last night. My "attorney" wife kept editing; You can never be too careful with the Public Education Cartel.

many of the regs made the trek over...

A question for Specialist....do Titles transfer over from site to site?... I think I remember having been given " Sultan" of something...

special can attest to that. He talked me into unloading the trunk of my car...although he almost got me to post a little blog there. If I'd have known I'd be blammed without ceremony the next day, FNAR,(although I'm still chalking it up to the Technical Intermission) I would have posted it.

I mean its not like you are a newbie

In fact, I like to think it was a glitch amidst the chaos. I tried to contact them, but they may be getting so many attempts to get through that it's not something which is high on the list of priorities right now. it will all get sorted out, but this is my new homepage, regardless.

did you do to earn that? I used to be glued to RS and could keep up with the comings and goings and bannings, but the past 4-5 days have been just miserable. It is so bad that just being able to recommend EPU's latest diary was a high water mark. Of course, 3.0 ate the three comments I tried to post to his diary, so there you go. One step forward, 6 back.

Think they'll get it fixed by the time John and Sarah take their oaths in January?

At this point, I can only say that I'm pretty sure I was banned, based on the word of some trusted sources. I can think of no comment I made that would have resulted in my banning, and if I received any warning about a ban-worthy comment, it must have been a "reply to this with your next comment" sort of thing which I--understandably--might have missed. No contact was made to me via email about it.

According to my sources, the ban may have been inadvertent and related to the current problems at RS.

I contacted RS Sunday via my email and received a rather cryptic auto-reply which seemed to reinforce my suspicion that I was indeed banned.

Right now, I am investigating some possibly-related issues which could result in my first-ever diary. If you ever see me again as RS, it will be as 66chevelle.

Be nice, im sure it was a mistake....Keep us updated on the "The Chronicles of Blooch"

LOL

"40 million American households that read TMR are generally happier

but cripesamighty, Csonkchak, the chief's tied my hands on this, he's cut me out of the loop and I'm thinkin' he's sicced IA on me! Maybe he's blowin' smoke, but I'm still workin' this case.

I just spoke with Erick. All is straightened out at RS. Your account is unblocked. I will email you Erick's email address.

And a scholar as well.
Thank you, sir.

don't put out that kind of propaganda -- I have a reputation to think of!

figure out whether or not you've been banned? :-) That's got to be some kind of high water mark of screw ups on the functioning of 3.0.

As to whether or not any of us see you at RS again, the jury's still out on whether or not ANY of us will be seen (or heard from) at RS again. I don't exactly have the entire day to sit here and WAIT to see if I can comment or recommend over there. Even just trying to read a comment has become near impossible. Why don't they post SOME information on what they are trying to do instead of just letting all of us get frustrated and leave?

"40 million American households that read TMR are generally happier

.

and I don't think that's an indicator that you've been banned -- something IIRC along the lines of 'this question from a non-member has been held up in a queue until a moderator reviews it', something like that?

Unfair. Unbalanced. Unmedicated.

I told special it sounded like RoboState, and--this is some "law talkin' guy " for special--whereas this party does believe it was inadvertent on the other party's part and hopes this issue can be resolved amicably by all parties involved thereby forsooth and post haste sobeit ad infinitum. Party on.

I keep expecting Moe and Erick to drift in out of the fog, on the next lifeboat, wrapped in blankets, teeth chattering, to the soft strains of "My Heart Will Go On" playing in the background.

of the RedState Building. if that tells you anything...

"40 million American households that read TMR are generally happier

where the chief calls the bad boy/maverick cops into his office and flips all the blinds closed?

"Csonkchak, Weathers, you''re suspended as of now. I want your guns and badges on my desk.. You will have nothing further to do with the Rainbow case and no more contact with the rookie...is that clear? If I find out you've been nosing around, I'll have Internal Affairs up your butt so far you'll bloo--you'll feel 'em on the back of your eyeballs. Now get the he// out of my sight!"

Or something like that...

trying to keep it together over there with duct tape chopsticks and spandex. Which is not to say there was no effort on payroll. I don't know jack about that ...just a lowly commenter.

If they make him an offer, they probably couldn't pay him enough to come in and clean up after the "Community Consultants".

it takes to get it right. ..take time and get it right. Anything less will just be total cheeze

Does that stuff still exist? We used to take it backpacking for a week at a time...indestructible, but so were our stomachs back then.

I'm so confused.
I think we should make a rule that if you come over here from RS, you either have to keep your same name or you have to out yourself.

Apparently he got banned over at RS.

at the same time. Found that a strange coincidence. Not to sound like the usual Troofers, but is it possible that denial of service attacks are responsible for any of the problems?

is how suddenly it happened. It is almost as though the Conservative base was suddenly ENERGIZED -- as though the American people suddenly awoke from a long slumber to see someone they could embrace as their own...

...of course Operation Chaos might have had something to do with it as well.

As I recall it was a slow-motion meltdown starting in about MAR 2005 and culminating with the 2006 election - I hardly think that to be "abrupt" but to each his own, I suppose.

Look, I'd love for this to be real - but I'd like to see something besides Gallup (rhymes with "crap") back this up before I get too excited.

and then see the gop gain the lead in the 90s and then 2000's that was abrupt, and was what I was referring to.

But then see it switch w/i one year from 2005-6, that is abrupt for sure.
