From: Hank Ramos Thread Topic = "SECONDTHOUGHTS: removing telehubs thoroughly sickens community leader" and not "Prok...any comments about him?" Well Hank, in the article that blaze linked, Prokofy makes all sorts of allegations and accusations against members of the community. Given that, I honestly am at a loss as to why you're so indignant about the path this thread has taken. I suggest you stop nannying adults (yes, I hear it coming, some quip about acting like adults). Report it if you don't like it, otherwise you're just throwing gasoline on the fire.

So when people post things like Prok wasn't a griefer, we should just ignore it? And by the way, your post wasn't keeping with the thread topic either. Oh wait, it's do as I say, not as I do.

Okay then. Fire away with Prok bashing then. He's not here to defend himself, and it makes us all feel good to talk nonstop about how awful he is. Let's stoop to that level, shall we?

From: Merwan Marker Yes - my source tells me that the interviewer was not looking forward to this interview - so maybe this is a bias on the interviewer part, or the interviewer's editor? Your source? You have a source who knows the writer at Fortune magazine? Sounded to me like a good time was had by all. I once wrote an article about large families. When the photography department went to photograph them, this one family of ten kids that was on the first page was photographed around one of those plastic backyard playhouses. This one had a phone, and they had one of the teenage girls on the plastic phone! It was SOOOO cute, plus the family got to keep the playhouse! coco |

Let's stoop to that level, shall we? Telling the truth is not Prok bashing. I have made this statement before, if we can't tell the truth about Prok, then Prok should not be mentioned at all. How can we let this person be called a Community Leader and leave out other information. Do you really think that is fair? Your are insulting everyone's intelligence on this Forum by making such a general statement of misinformation.

From: blaze Spinnaker Fair enough, which community leader speaks for you?
If you're going to say none, well, all I can say is pick one soon otherwise you're not going to have much of a voice around here. He seems to be doing quite well one his own. Damn Aimee beat me to it about 8 pages ago..*sigh* *reads ALL posts before posting*

Sounded to me like a good time was had by all. They brought Legos and paid Prok's son and his friend $20 to build a skyscraper! And they did, and they also got to keep the Legos!
I once wrote an article about large families. When the photography department went to photograph them, this one family of ten kids that was on the first page was photographed around one of those plastic backyard playhouses. This one had a phone, and they had one of the teenage girls on the plastic phone! It was SOOOO cute, plus the family got to keep the playhouse!
coco Prok has a son? We can have children in Second Life? Wow, I can't wait to get mine.

coco Say, isn't disclosing that Prok has a child against the TOS, since it isn't in... in... Ah, dammit, what was that gender neutral pronoun I came up with? Ah yes. Isn't it against the TOS since ort child's information is not listed in ort profile? I sure hope we hear the drama about this! |

coco That's funny. Why does it piss you off? If we are to keep these things separate, you can't have it both ways. Make up your mind. Either we can talk about the person behind Prok, or we can't. Now you know how confusing it is for the rest of us.

coco You can have an opinion about what happens to you. You can't negate what I've gone through by making a statement contrary to the fact. You can say Prok wasn't a griefer to you, but you can't belittle what I have gone through. We've gone over this before and if you continue to rewrite history, I will continue to post as it was.

Let me get this straight.
Users can ferry text from a banned user into the forums...
But we cannot debate those points because the banned user cannot defend themselves?
Is this invulnerable status what the Lindens had in mind when they ban people!?
OK I really want the Lindens to make a decision on this. Which way will it go?
1. Users CAN ferry text into the forums from banned users. As such we ARE allowed to debate them since they can INDEED defend themselves through their willing messengers.
2. Users CANNOT ferry text into the forums from banned users, and therefore we should NOT discuss banned individuals because they cannot defend themselves.

Heh, Aimee, don't let ort agents get to you. They have enough of a hell as it is. After all, their values allow them to respect and admire ort! That's not the sort of cross I'd enjoy bearing.  |

I mod an entirely unconnected forum, and we have a strict policy of not letting people relay messages from banned posters. Otherwise, what's the point of banning them?

Hi Pendari! Hi Cristiano! Pendari, Look carefully at Sebastian Skye's signature. Wow, the SL Forums haven't changed even a little bit. Just thought I would read through a bunch of pages of stuff I don't remember and say hi to some old friends edited to add: oops, that was a rhetorical question wasn't it? Jess |
