I thought Buck was doing his usual schtick on this post. If it was serious then I have no problem with a request from him to use what I thought was a schtick name that he uses when putting us on. If it is an attempt to put distance between himself and his real name a request is all that is needed for me.
The reason I always used the other one was because I considered that connected to the guy I used to have friendly conversations with here as his genuine self. The schtick routine has given me some difficulty understanding where he is coming from. He was one of the people who stuck up for limits on abuse from you know who, which I really appreciate. So if that is what you want Buck, that is your name from now on. Speaking of that matter...I just reached the top 10 in Google for my name and the P word this week. First search page. As soon as he realized he had a hot button that could actually hurt me, he used his tech savvy to flood the search engines pairing my name with this word even in posts that I had nothing to do with. The tip off was his monitoring of results on youtube. He knew exactly what he was doing. I wont list all the people who stuck up for me, but you all know who you are and I really appreciate your kindness. The day he left was going to be my last day here. Now the damage is done and I can only hope it will not have its intended malicious effect. I am a sadder but wiser poster here having been through that. Word to the wise: People can say almost anything here about you with little lasting consequences. But when someone is repeating a phrase, again and again, it can hurt you and you need to act fast. --- In [email protected], "Alex Stanley" <j_alexander_stanley@...> wrote: > > > > --- In [email protected], "Buck" <dhamiltony2k5@> wrote: > > > > > > > > --- In [email protected], "Alex Stanley" <j_alexander_stanley@> > > wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > --- In [email protected], "Rick Archer" <rick@> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > I wasn't aware of it.
