Ummmm, Did You Have a Point to Make?
Mr. Bibro… Is that really all you’ve got?
Next time you pretend to stalk me, at least put some effort into it. And no, I don’t consider helping me promote articles that I wrote years ago and posted publicly myself to be effort. I also don’t consider raiding my MySpace pictures and talking shit about my kids effort, either. Creating an account in my name on your “trashyourfriends” site was cute and mildly amusing (loved reading you talking to yourself), but was far from effort. Face it, you fail. The silver lining there is that you should be well beyond used to failure by now, so I’m sure it won’t phase you. 
I mean, I get it. I hit a nerve with my last entry here. I did notice that you’ve been all over the thing with your proxy IPs for days now, and I’m assuming that I must have really gone off the deep end otherwise you wouldn’t have been driven to do everything you’ve done for the past 2 days.
The thing I realized though, is how right I must have been. Why else would you be so upset about it? Instead of simply leaving a comment on anything I’ve written here about you, explaining rationally why what I’ve said is wrong, the best you can come up with is a counter-slam attack on me. You hoped that you could “get under my skin” and try to shut me up by name-calling and threatening.
Now, you have some assinine ridiculousness about “truce” and “do unto others” on your failure-blog. Do you realize how schizophrenic and hypocritical that makes you look? If you feel a certain way about me, it didn’t just go away when you realized you didn’t have what it takes to mess with me. You are perfectly entitled to feel the way you do, but at least have the maturity and balls to be honest about it. And, maybe go one further and say WHY you feel the way you do, instead of spouting obscenities and pretending that my having written a few articles (that I was paid for, if it matters) makes me hate-worthy. And while I’m thinking of it, this “cunt” has copies of the 3 entries you wrote before you got rid of them. I knew you’d turn into a pussy and remove them once you came out of your drunken stupor.
Now then… If you’d like to leave a normal comment here to refute anything I’ve said about you, feel free to do so. I will not approve comments where you’re just trying to spam your latest whims. Regardless, I have no intention to stop writing about you as long as you continue to act like a steaming pile of shit.

What a Jackass…
Seems as though FreeAssholePro finally got wind of the fact that his program has been removed from the BeenPaid Seal of Approval Program. He posted the following at BeenPaid last night:
BeenPaid.com removed my perfectly legitimate, popular, and paying GPT site from their program citing allegations unrelated to my own site and having nothing whatsoever to do with the scope of the BeenPaid.com program. Luckily, in forethought, I had already absented my own program (stopped displaying their emblem on my site) from their program months ago seeing the program for its true colors.
My own GPT site continues to enjoy the rampant popularity and success it had all along despite the mouse-like squeaks expressed by BeenPaid.com recently at the vocal minority “in-crowd”’s beckoning.
I have seen allegations of similar biased favoritism on the part of BeenPaid.com posted liberally throughout the web.
BeenPaid.com, in my opinion, routinely takes summary derogatory action on programs arbitrarily based upon unsubstantiated random claims and rumor posted on the internet. BeenPaid.com is wholly unworthy of their current implied claim of being an unbiased and trustworthy pseudo-accreditation program.
Their overly apparent favoritism towards ShiftCode based GPT sites (only) while willingly taking a blind eye to other, more popular, up-to-date, much more reliable and lucrative GPT programs powered by “other” script providers makes BeenPaid.com a tainted, unreliable, and incompetent source of good information.
Further, their anarchist “mob rules” mentality makes BeenPaid.com unworthy of any such accreditation program standing they aspire to be.
BeenPaid.com’s inconsistent and subjective system of rating GPT sites appears to me not to be based upon rational statistics, but rather based upon an unfortunate subjective “mob rules” mentality citing and lending credence to unsubstantiated and poorly researched rumors taken and re-published on BeenPaid.com and re-distributed by BeenPaid.com as “fact”.
Thankfully, the word has spread and BeenPaid.com has been identified by many as the self-appointed pompous biased and unreliable system it is in its current form.
My advice? Steer clear!
http://www.freecashpro.com/?m=200905
(Promoted as ONLY I can.)
(I expect this post will be deleted instead of properly opening the subject for free discussion – A “crime” myself had been tried, convicted, and sentenced for by the mob of vocal minority recently)
About the “Sad & Pathetic” incident, I only responded to RBSLOVE (whatever)’s comments directed at me here by QUOTING HIS OWN WORDS directly (and EXACTLY! – VERBATIM !) (what’s good for the goose is good for the gander?) I AM human with human frailties and faults – I have my own very distant limits which were reached by his comments this time (a rarity) – shoot me. Something I am confident ANY administrator would feel free in doing under the UNPROVOKED “personal attack” circumstances I was subjected to (please re-read HIS OWN unprovoked personal (against myself, personally) comment in the “GPTBoycott Confidence Poll I concerning a BeenPaid forum (this) account I have had here for years without any problem until HIS OWN PERSONAL ATTACK COMMENT. (– former statement retracted –)
About Nitinkumar? (FORMER moderator – and might I say a very good moderator at that.) I NEVER had a problem with Nitinkumar’s performance as moderator at GPF (in fact he was one of the most hard working volunteer mods I had there – thank you.) The problem began when I noticed various derogatory comments posted here and there about GetPaidForum, myself, it’s ownership, and other moderation staff. These comments were posted at the VERY SAME time Nitinkumar appeared to me with “smiling face” posts at GPF (always.) Now, if the mod was so unhappy and disgruntle about his allegations DON’T YOU THINK that I am due (as administrator) at least the littlest notice or dialogue before he goes spewing his mouth publicly? (that would only be right, correct?) Now I am left only with the opinion that my favorite hard-working volunteer moderator turned out to be TWO FACED *without EVER expressing ANY of the concerns he freely expressed publicly to me (giving me the chance to react, respond, change things, or know his true feelings – only he stayed TWO FACED to the end – smiling to my “face” – stabbing me in the back althewhile.)
Now, for those of you who have an undeserved sense of satisfaction by thinking that you’ve “won” in this war YOU’ve started being disgruntle simply and ONLY because GPF changed ownership and management…? (I’m doing just fine, thank you. Even more successful as ever (despite your infantile (contrary just to be contrary – because it’s me) nay-saying.)
As for GPF, I had only done what was necessary to do under the circumstances to secure the simple and basic control RIGHTS of the new ownership (as was right and good.)
Face with the then current small group of moderators and “in crowd” taking a “thug stance” on allowing the new owner to rightly seize control over his newly purchased internet property…? (just talk to the hand… You know the rest.) …good riddance…
I HAVE NO REGRETS, AND FURTHER, I REVOKE THE APOLOGY I HAD MADE PREVIOUSLY. DAMN THE TORPEDOS, FULL SPEED AHEAD!
Thank you,
Most Sincerely,

I’m mainly posting this here for posterity, since he’ll likely try to get rid of it when he puts his ass-kiss hat back on. On the other hand, it is funny as hell to watch him croppy-flop in his own excrement, cry about karma coming back for him and doing him in the same way he’s been doing others for at least the past 6 months (and probably much longer than that, since I refuse he turned into a POS only upon assuming control over GPF).
For old time’s sake, let’s dissect FreeMentalMidgetPro’s post and see what comes out… 
BeenPaid.com removed my perfectly legitimate, popular, and paying GPT site from their program citing allegations unrelated to my own site and having nothing whatsoever to do with the scope of the BeenPaid.com program. Luckily, in forethought, I had already absented my own program (stopped displaying their emblem on my site) from their program months ago seeing the program for its true colors.
Now, I’ll admit that I’ve never placed much stock in the BeenPaid seal, and I do question USD’s motives for removing the seal from FCP’s site… However… The reasons she stated for having done so are right on. FCP did, for 6 months, treat people in this industry like shit, and was only able to do so to the extent that he did because he was in an ill-placed position of authority – such as he is while running his programs. I have no reason to believe that he would/does treat his members any differently than he did the members of GPF. His personality, as shown quite clearly in his dealings at GPF, is what it is. What logical reason would there be for it changing from one venue to the next?
Regardless, USD also explained why the seal was removed from FCP’s site months ago, and it had nothing to do with him seeing BeenPaid for it’s “true colors”.
My own GPT site continues to enjoy the rampant popularity and success it had all along despite the mouse-like squeaks expressed by BeenPaid.com recently at the vocal minority “in-crowd”’s beckoning.
Success is highly subjective and up to individual interpretation… But… “Rampant popularity”??? Prior to the hostile takeover of GPF, I had never heard word one about “Dietzel” sites, and certainly never heard anything about FCP’s little site. The “rampantly popular” sites that cropped up all over the place were TreasureTrooper and CashCrate.
If it were so popular, wouldn’t the major GPT-related forums be full of testimonials of being paid, people talking about what a wonderful program it was? I mean, that’s how it normally works with “popular” sites around here. Why is there no thread in the downline builder at GPF for it? Why is the ONLY mention made of it there made by FCP himself? Clearly, his own members don’t think enough of it to say anything at all about it, which certainly doesn’t coincide with behavior of members who LOVE a site, and definitely doesn’t correlate with the buzz that surrounds a truly “popular” program.
But hey, if he wants to keep living in his little fantasy land where everyone thinks he’s king shit, then far be it from me to pee in his Wheaties…
A hint… Google Treasure Trooper and SitHomeCash and look at the difference between number of results and what KIND of results you come up with. Just some food for thought there…
Their overly apparent favoritism towards ShiftCode based GPT sites (only) while willingly taking a blind eye to other, more popular, up-to-date, much more reliable and lucrative GPT programs powered by “other” script providers makes BeenPaid.com a tainted, unreliable, and incompetent source of good information.
Dude, you HAD the stupid seal!!! Somehow, I don’t think you were feeling this way when your site (which is supposedly “more popular, up-to-date, much more reliable and lucrative) was compliant with the guidelines of the BeenPaid seal program. The only logical conclusion is that you’re suffering from sour grape syndrome because you finally got a taste of your own medicine.
BeenPaid.com’s inconsistent and subjective system of rating GPT sites appears to me not to be based upon rational statistics, but rather based upon an unfortunate subjective “mob rules” mentality citing and lending credence to unsubstantiated and poorly researched rumors taken and re-published on BeenPaid.com and re-distributed by BeenPaid.com as “fact”.
Which, again, you evidently had no problem with when you applied for, and then proudly displayed the BeenPaid seal on your paltry little program. Dumbass.
Thankfully, the word has spread and BeenPaid.com has been identified by many as the self-appointed pompous biased and unreliable system it is in its current form.
No thanks you to, I might add. People have been spreading the word about the biased nature in which the BeenPaid seal program has been operated for years now. The irony is that for once, the right decision was made with you losing your seal.
(Promoted as ONLY I can.)
By spam. How convenient. Like I said over at BeenPaid, you’re not a unique snowflake. You’re more like a piece of shit. They may all look different, but they all reek something fierce. And – they’re still shit.
(I’m doing just fine, thank you. Even more successful as ever (despite your infantile (contrary just to be contrary – because it’s me) nay-saying.)
Did someone inquire as to how you were doing? I don’t remember seeing that. Actually, I’m pretty sure that no one cares how you’re doing.
I HAVE NO REGRETS, AND FURTHER, I REVOKE THE APOLOGY I HAD MADE PREVIOUSLY. DAMN THE TORPEDOS, FULL SPEED AHEAD!
You may as well revoke your apology, since no one believed you were sincere in the first place.

That Didn’t Take Long, Did It? Or… Tag, You’re Not It!
I don’t mean to be a smug bitch, but this is just comical…
I wrote this on April 27th… Two and a half weeks later, Sophie tells the news at GFO:
Well, now GPF Co administrator who was in charge of GPF is :FORMER GPF Co-Administrator -
Group: GPF Moderators and FreeCashPro has taken over again ….
http://getpaidforum.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=541886&pid=5074833&st=30&#entry5074833That can’t be Tom’s doing, he is busy doing the right thing at GPTB and enjoying second chances there …. sorry for the sarcasm but I can’t find any other way anymore.
The link goes to GPF Forum Issues, and here is FCP’s post for those who can’t see that area:
Thanks Joe. I’ll take it from here
(Joe didn’t work out so well here.) Bye Joe.
Firstly… FCP is a bigger douche than Summer’s Eve. Secondly… Joe didn’t work out so well because FCP doesn’t do well as the nice guy and he just couldn’t cut it in that “role”.
Regardless, GPF is still dead in da water. Deal with it. It sure the hell isn’t going to get better now that FCP is back to being FCP again. He’s nothing if not persistent, I’ll give him that much. *GAG*

Ahhh Shit… Now What?
It’s been officially confirmed that Tom Dietzel, owner of umpteen PTSU sites and GPF, is also the new owner of GPTBoycott:
Yes I’m the same Tom, however that investment I will be honest turned into a nightmare on day one of taking ownership. My assumption there was that the previous owner of it had some issues and when I took control I just inherited them. As mentioned before nothing is going to change here. Its not going to turn into a self promotional tool. I bought it / took over it as it in the long haul is cheaper to have it than pay for all the ads I had already purchased month after month on the site. The ad placements will stay the same, with the exception of a static text link here and there, but nothing flooding it. The exisitng moderators have been asked to keep on board, and to continue doing as they have been for the years prior. I’m just going to sit in the back ground, and answer the complaints, and the minor stuff.
The laid back environment here is going to remain intact. No stress, no new moderators (unless for some reason the existing disappear).
So, what does this mean for the future of GPTB? Well, I do have a bad feeling about the whole thing, based on the GPF debacle, but I really don’t know what to think. Of course I’m irritated about him calling my house because of forum shit (using my personal info from his site AFTER I was no longer tecnically a member to do so), and I’m not happy about the negligence of GPF either. If I was going to be honest though, I can’t definitively blame him for what happened at GPF, beyond him appointing FCP as admin and allowing him to tear up the joint. It is entirely possible that Tom simply put FCP at the helm and trusted, stupidly, that FCP would handle everything in a mature and reasonable way. It is entirely possible that FCP lied to him about a whole host of things that were going down at GPF, knowing full well that Tom wouldn’t bother to check things out for himself.
I suppose the only way to know these things for sure is to wait and see what goes down with GPTB since FCP doesn’t have his grubby mitts in it.
Anyway, like I was saying, I don’t have a particularly good feeling about this, so I’m left wondering: What’s left? To the best of my knowledge, there aren’t any other sites that have anything similar to a boycott system in place.
Obviously boycotting doesn’t keep scammers from scamming, but I think it did help some from getting scammed and maybe some of those more scrupulous scammers thought twice when faced with the prospect of having their site name plastered publicly as being one to avoid. At the end of the day, even if the system had flaws, it was certainly better than nothing. If that aspect of GPTB becomes extinct, it needs to be replaced with something similar or better or whatever.

GPTBoycott sold?
Earlier, Rob posted this over at GPTB:
Dear members, visitors and friends,
After eight years of operating GPTBoycott, the time has come for me to step down.
In recent months I have been increasingly concerned that I do not have the time, energy or resources to work on GPTBoycott as much as I would like. This situation is unlikely to change in the near future as I move on to new challenges offline. In the best interests of the site, and its goals, I have taken the decision to hand over the site to new management, who will be able to commit the time and resources to the site which I am no longer able to provide.
The overriding aim is to make the transition as seamless as possible, without disruption to the forum or our complaint system. The new owner has stated his desire to keep the current moderators in place, and I hope they will take up his offer. I would like to pay special thanks to the moderating team, and those who have previously helped as moderators over the last eight years. Without you this site would never have had the impact it has – your input has truly made a difference.
I would also like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank every single member and visitor who has supported GPTBoycott. Your enthusiasm for this project has been incredible, and proves what people can achieve when they are united by a common purpose. I truly hope that this site, with your support, continues to grow and succeed in fighting scams long into the future.
With best wishes,
Rob
I asked who the new owner is, but there hasn’t been a response as of yet. I did notice a new member with the name “owner” earlier today, and they have admin status, so I guess it’s safe to assume that’s the new owner. Rob refers to them as “his” in his post. Other than that, I’m pretty clueless (yeah, big shocker there… lol), but definitely curious to find out how this is gonna play out.
In unrelated news, I noticed that FCP has been slinking around this blog today. Whatcha doin’, dipshit? Come to leave more retarded comments?

My Laziness Finally Pays Off?
Well… I finally decided to quit smoking after about 20 years. I’m going with the patch this time (tried it before, unsuccessfully).
Yesterday was the first day and went off without a hitch, surprisingly enough. Death toll = zero.
I think that my laziness has something to do with the ease of this transition. I’ve never smoked in my house, which always meant getting up and going outside, no matter how shitty the weather happened to be, no matter whether I was sick, or tired, or whatever. I think I always smoked less overall because of that, because I’m just lazy and couldn’t be bothered to get up and go out. As a result, now it’s just a matter of staying away from the back door and limiting my phone and car time (two big triggers for me).
The main reason I decided to quit is because my brand finally got more expensive than the patch… My last carton was $50, which is the same as the Step 1 Nicoderm, so financially, it just made sense to finally quit and be done with it. Luckily, we were able to find all three steps on Ebay (10 weeks total supply) and bought the whole regimen for about $100 including shipping. That’s about what I would have spent on smokes in a month, so yeah… Much better deal than smoking, and MUCH better deal than buying the patch even at Walmart. Anyone who’s considering quitting should check out Ebay as a retail alternative…
I also decided to take up raising a bonsai tree (Blue Star Juniper) that Jeff brought home for me this past weekend. I pruned it down from its bushy state and will be transplanting it this coming weekend…

I’ll Give You Three Guesses, and the First Two Don’t Count…
For those of you who lurk at GPF and can’t access Forum Issues anymore… Please peruse these posts, made by “new” admin “GPF Co-Administrator” and just take a stab at who this latest reincarnation is. I’d also be interested in knowing just how stupid we’re all supposed to be, but yeah…
Yes i do admit that this had been a very difficult and frustrating job for FreeCashPro and I admire his tenacity. He has been re-assigned to several other equally prestigious tasks here within the network. I’m sure he will pop in here and there to say hi but in the interim you may consult me with any forum related issues you may have. I have been assigned to take his place by TommyD into the future here. Pleased to make your acquaintance.
__________________________________________________________________________________
You can call me Joe. Yes, the proper administration of a forum is a delicate art. I hope to bring the “delicate” and “art” back to this forum.
No offense but my full name is of no relevance here and I had been pre-warned by FreeCashPro that when people disagree they are quick to go on the personal offensive. Just call me Joe – I’m sure we can all get along fine. I will maintain my professionalism here while enforcing logical healthy boundaries and limits without discouraging the free flow of information concerning get paid to sites as I initially interpret this forum to mainly address.
I have been handed a report by TommyD concerning member’s concerns with regard to the direction this forum had been taking of late. I have been assigned the task of correcting this course (to put it delicately) towards a better and happier destination.
___________________________________________________________________________________
Thank you.
One thing Judy, I have been advised in my report that 1- The blog you reference in your signature is purported to contain language that may be considered “unfriendly” to GetPaidForum and I will have to insist that if you wish to re-add such references to your signature and posts here then you would want to remove the unfriendly GetPaidForum references from your blog and report back to me to have your blog removed from the forbidden word filter here 2- the forum you had referenced in your signature had also been added as a forbidden reference as the owner or co-owner is a banned member here (I think her name was cyber-something) and I have been directed in my transition report to reject all references to such hostile parties.
If you would like to add ANYTHING else appropriate to your signature then I will be supportive. We encourage free speech here but not while such speech is an outright attack on our forum (you may post such things elsewhere to your delight) I hope you understand.
____________________________________________________________________________________
Thank you for your understanding. I do have limits that my boss has set while in consultation with the former administrator, FreeCashPro. While I do have issues with some statements in his report and his particular style of administration (I won’t elaborate here) I do have to initially abide by the wishes of my boss until I am in such a position to have enough information to question some given “knowns” expressed in this report. As far as my boss is concerned, at this point I am an unknown variable but from his point of view he states that “change would be good for the forum” (without elaborating) FreeCashPro “Wes” is a very close personal friend and co-worker of mine and I do not wish to diminish his apparent notoriety in the office and reputation for being able to transform chaos and anarchy into order quickly (he’s known to let heads roll when “heads” aren’t reasonable and “with the program”)
TommyD, as expressed to me, has stated that he thinks FreeCashPro’s expert work is done and now the forum needs a more patient, forgiving, caring, and helpful personality at the helm. I was quick to raise my hand. I hope to please while being polite but firm. TommyD has let me know that he will be happy to have FreeCashPro give me a helping hand as a team in these initial days but I let him know in no uncertain terms (I’ve been doing some independent reading around the web) that I would prefer to decline and handle things in my own caring way and that if I need help (if things get out of hand) with anything in particular I would be the first to ask for help (sorry for the “book” response but those are my thoughts) TommyD has promised me that he will officially announce my appointment shortly to the forum. If you may have helpful suggestions I am open to them.

At this moment, I’m not sure whether to laugh uncontrollably or high-five someone in their face…
Probably some combination of the two would be best.

New Trend in Scumminess…
Ok, so let’s see what we have here…
Christina Serafini, owner of DealBarbiePays, DealBarbiePaysFast, StarReferrals, AffiliateNetworkFinder, and BannerCreate, and now previous owner of DealBarbieDollarClick, starts a thread at GPTB 3 days ago to let people know that she had sold the site to someone named Lora. Evidently, Christina and Lora had a conversation on Thursday wherein Lora inquired about running a site. One thing led to another, and Lora bought DealBarbieDollarClick from Christina, existing site debt included (how much debt that actually was is anyone’s guess – it was not disclosed publicly). The program was then transferred to the domain DollarClickorSignup.
Apparently, Christina felt compelled to start this thread at GPTB because the DNS resolved faster than expected, and anyone who may not have logged into the site in the mere hours between the decision to sell and the DNS resolving would get nothing but a 404 error. The idea to set up a redirect for the old domain so that members wouldn’t freak out wondering where the site went came from someone else who posted in the thread and was a total after-thought.
Christina seemed to think that she is respected enough in the community that making this announcement would result in more praise for her, but what she forgot was that members may want to know in advance that the site – and therefore, their personal information – would be sold off to someone else. Heaven forbid members should have the opportunity to decide for themselves who they share their information with. This issue was brought to light, and a discussion about it commenced.
After 9 pages, the thread has been closed, at Christina’s request, of course. Why am I not surprised that someone who appears to be running the PTSU show would do whatever was necessary to turn the heat off, despite the fact that they brought it on themselves… Why am I not surprised that once again, someone who very well COULD be an influential entity for positive change would not only do something that makes things worse instead of better, and then proceeds to stifle discussion…
I don’t know about anyone else, but I do not trust this woman. At all. There are a number of reasons I feel this way, some of which I voiced in the now-closed thread. The fact alone that she refused to answer simple questions that were asked – such as, why did she not pay off the existing debt prior to selling the site, and why was she in such a hurry to sell to begin with, lead me to believe that there is much more going on behind the scenes in this situation than anyone cares to delve into.
She claims that the site was pushed to the new owner and advance notice not given to members because she didn’t want the site to sit around inactive for a period of time. She managed to remove all of her ads from the site in the 2 days or so after agreeing to sell it to Lora, so I’m not quite understanding why she couldn’t have left her ads on the site for a couple weeks, close the signup page, remove the ads and pay the existing debt a day or so before the actual transfer, and be done with it. No one would have had cause for complaint if it had been handled in that manner.
She also mentioned that it didn’t even occur to her that members might not want to have their information passed around to the highest bidder. I find this extremely hard to believe. It’s not as if Christina just showed up today. She’s been around GPTB, at the very least, for more than a year, and discussions about personal information and site swapping has been going on for much longer than that. This feels like the same old “fuck the members” that has been the norm for as long as I’ve been around here. She may as well have just come out and said that she was going to do whatever she wanted, and whatever anyone else thought was irrelevent, because that’s what her attitude equates to at this point.
She had the nerve initially to whine about bashing and crucifying when Belle dared ask the hard question about giving her members notice, then spent the rest of the thread pretending to be the bigger person. When people stop blowing sunshine and butterflies into her nether regions, she opts to close the thread. Why do that if she has nothing to hide?

Rah, Rah, Sis Boom Bah!
I really have zero patience for the cheerleader mentality. Specifically, I’m referring to people who feel it necessary to jump into a discussion with no clue about what is being discussed (beyond maybe the name of the program). They offer nothing at all to the conversation except their “support” for the program/PO, and they typically do so in a defensive manner that, many times, isn’t at all necessary.
I realize that not everyone is going to feel the same way about a topic, but for christ’s sake, at least know what the topic IS… At least take the time to formulate an actual opinion and understand that just because you don’t have a problem with something, that does NOT mean that no one else does. It also doesn’t mean that the problem isn’t worth discussing.
It may also be helpful to actually read the thread in its entirety, since threads often start out discussing one thing and evolve into a discussion about something completely different. It’s called “you can’t judge a book by its cover”.
If you’re not willing to do anything more than cheer for your favorite program or PO, if you don’t want to hear anything that others have to say, then at least have the courtesy to keep your closed-minded ass out of the thread.
