wtf steve is leaving? :O

You tell me, Liz. Or maybe you're just leveling me. I can't really tell. Either way, if all this really is what it is, I was sincere about all I said. I doubt anyone can dispute his worth to those seeking answers to questions. For the most part, all the Mods do great work here that goes largely under-appreciated.

So I suppose I was banned by Sean for starting my own forum and linking to it here on his forum. A heads up would've been nice rather than just banning me. But I know where I stand in terms of his opinion. He has made that blatantly clear in the past on more than one occasion.

I'm not here to piss and moan... it is what it is.

If he's okay with me remaining here with a new user id and without the moderator hat, great. I'd still like to stay and help where I can. If he doesn't want me here and decides to ban my IP address... so be it.

Not much I can do about it.

If people are still interested in contacting me if he decides to ban me, you can email me at stroutman81@yahoo.com.

I know some people were linking the Steve thing to April 1 but it always looked 100% serious to me. The way things like that are done here, it's always a bit confusing though. Currently, I can't see "evicted" against his old username or his new one, but there doesn't seem much room for doubt.

I haven't wanted to post much myself lately (because I get carried away and I know I don't have time for that), so while I'm posting less, I read more, and I don't miss people exactly because I read their stuff through a couple more clicks at a different address. I totally understand that it feels very different if you're the one who can't access a forum - and your own posts! - the way you used to though, so from that end, I'm sorry about the way things have gone down. Steve certainly helped a lot of people here, myself included.

Good to see you back, Randy. It sounds like you're feeling ready for your next set of challenges - a nice way to be.

i was being honest, you know me, that was the first i heard of it. I went and looked around afterwards and for what it matters, Steve has now re-instated.
No idea what went on, dont care, im staying out of it. I dont have time to waste in arguments which are not mine or have anything to do with me (Steve has his own forum so i knew his wise words wouldnt disappear from the web entirely, and I know he is going places)


And for the record, yes yours WAS the first diary/thread i visited on the forum yesterday

HI RANDY!!!!!!!!

Oh the whole hoopla is on Steve being banned. I guess Sean said there were too many complaints about him. Maybe he had too many haters or something!

You're smoking again?

Love, Valerie

Danke, Kerry A. I rode my first complete trail ride (26 miles) yesterday. I'm fairly sore today. If there were a day I'm glad it's rainy, it's today. I couldn't double back on a bet. Today will have a walk here shortly, though. Every day needs an effort on my behalf. No excuses.

I'm feeling like I did of old. I had a great week of fighting of the night demons, so far. We're gonna have a shitty (snow! ffs!) weather run for awhile so staying busy and mindful will take a bit more concentration. I can only see a great 6 months ahead of me. I won't settle for anything less.

oi was being honest, you know me, that was the first i heard of it. I went and looked around afterwards and for what it matters, Steve has no re-instated.

I agree with the 'leave well alone' stance for myself, also. I doubt there isn't much involved I couldn't figure out anyway - should I be inclined to 'connect the dots' with, however, I really don't feel up to it.

I would hope there's enough traffic for everyone and more than enough help available those seeking to match up with their individual requirements.

At first, I can't say I was a big fan of merging muscle and fat under the same roof but it really didn't turn out to be such a bad thing after all. These really are two different animals but I never was much for coddling and sympathy in weight loss. You really have to find a new slice of toughness within and who could better help you toughen up than tough people?

WLF transitioned from pom pom waving to a tone of snarkiness and swagger during my time here. I think a bit of edge is a good thing. If a mod makes you cry or get pissy, chances are you're not quite ready yet.

Hey there Val oh noes, the Queen of Rep handing the tiara to the next in line? bah! none so worthy...

I didn't join so therefore I'm unread on the 'semi-interesting' link, no tellin' if and when I'll get there *stamps out the butt*

I'd be hard pressed to believe Steve had extensive complaints lodged against him but wtf do I know? How does one attract new customers by being mean? That's kinda got holes in it, imo.

I guess haters hate and winners just pwn faces and don't care wtf haters do. That's how I roll.

 

[wishes]

haha yes he offends some people with his bluntness, but to be fair i ban and ask questions later so i was surprised that it wasnt me.
That Educator dude for instance, Steve duked it out for ages, when i banned him here he invited him over to his forum to duke it out some more and try and 'help' him.
Then when the guy came back here again i banned him permantly after about 2 posts because he was really just a dick. He may have had facts but no diplomacy or style.
Lookin back actually im wondering if hes the complainant, and he assumed steve banned him when it was me ..... oops?

 

[T2 Trucker]

Yeah, I caught some classic bugtussles between those two. Educator was agenda-specific and a just ban it was.

I could probably generate more complaints in one week than any mod did in their entire career. I can go from zero to asshole in no time flat. I don't have the jam to do battle on the internet anymore. I'm kinda leathered-up at this day-n-age with cyber Rambos. How a mod last more than 3 months on here is a mystery.

*runs the vacuum*


Sunday brought my awakening by way of the noise of a tree that fell out in the yard. Luckily, with the height of this tree, it wasn't anything more than pure luck and the angle it fell that only the smallest of branches hit the house.

Literally, had it fell 5-10 degrees differently, the whole roof and wall would have been crushed. As it turned out, the house received no marks or damage. I assume the high winds we had last Friday and Saturday split the tree up high and it just took its good old time to fall as gravity finally got the upper hand.

I got a decent workout cutting up the tree. About two hours of lifting, dragging and stacking up the salvageable firewood, I definitely worked up a good sweat. Sherri came up to help rake up the twigs and sawdust debris field. I had planned to ride Sunday and after all that, I didn't think I'd go. I don't think Sherri liked my choice. She rarely gets Sunday off (she likes the shift differential).

We compromised with me riding 90 minutes and I told her she could wait at my place if she liked. When I got back, she was waiting for me with a 12-pack of Miller Lite and Mabel's pizza. Wadda woman.

I paid the price, tho. I could barely move yesterday Too much, too soon. I didn't do jack shit all day. I didn't even honor my cal count. Today brought the hopes of what will be the very last of our winter. Cold and snow today and tomorrow *sigh* I got a good day of inside house cleaning in today. I shoved back my cal towards today - kinda 'pay it forward' for yesterday, I guess.

I'm closing in on our High School's 50th Birthday Party in lieu of a 30th reunion, they decided since we're all (more or less) going to be 50 this year, that's how we're gonna roll. As good a concept as any, I suppose.

Three months to get that look I want. There isn't much wiggle room for me and I'm sure as hell not going to starve myself, either. Fuck that. I'm growing my hair long to represent my style in 1977 but I dunno if I can do it. It's not a good look for my hair color - and no, I'm not coloring it. I just about gave up on it today. idkwtf2do *shrugs*

peacebye.

 

[wishes]

bwahahah mid life crisis! loosing weight, growing your hair long, getting a girl drinking beer and eating pizza ... yep.. your old!

 

[T2 Trucker]

And soreness. Don't forget the soreness, Liz

I hope I live another 50 years, too. It only took my first 50 to find a woman who can read my mind. I feel like I've been robbed for the first 50, yanno? I'm owed another 50 on that principle alone.

 

[felici]

I'm pretty sure I got that soreness when I was about 25 (on my first attempt to ride for more than 5 minutes). Mind you I started forgetting names at an early age too, so maybe that doesn't prove much.

That tree event sounds pretty spooky. Are you looking sideways at any of the others nearby after that?

Enjoy your Easter weekend.

Hey randy let me know your progress I am trying this once again. From the posts I see this is the same old drama in here just a new day lmao!

Amen to that lmao

Just been busy here. Let the record reflect I stop in most everyday but have fallen short on writing much lately. I've been taking a stab at writing in different sections because my diary is really beyond hope. Seeing my diary bumped with old and new faces has caught me off guard, tho. I wasn't expecting this.

meh, drama. I really don't have much to say about any of that.

Nice to see you back, Tina. You still a mod here?

Yah well avg age is always increasing. i figure 100+ is the avg life span.

'Behind' you is all you got until you get that 'front' all fixed up No worries. You'll be posting wild monkey sex stories soon enough. haha.

I like that thinking!!!

Do you like my thinking? oh wait, you have no clue what I'm thinking.

better get back in here to support me this last time to reach my goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You gonna stay longer than a week or a month? You gotta stay in here and talk it out, yanno?

whast up bad mother trucker

Hey man, cool you made the trip over here. I've been following your diary a lot. So very cool how much support you've found here. I'm glad you got a bunch of friends on here. Weight loss camaraderie is invaluable.

I'm nothing but proud of what you're doing, man. As long as you have the soul to get this done, it shall be so. I believe that.

Hello my friend. Glad to see you have someone special in your life. I came poking around ready to add a little strength training to my life. Ttyl. xoxo, Patty

Yes, I got tired of waiting for you

I wish I was your PT, nonetheless.
