Glad the cooler head kicked in DJ |thumb

Did take a while though...remind me not to piss you off :D

I used Link Admin for a year or so, don't recall it having the capability of using the Usefulscripts blacklist. It did have its own blacklist, but wasn't connected to any outside list.

As mentioned previously, and I think a lot of reviewers do this...I use that list as a reference point only. Just another of many checks I run on new submitters. The only way it carries any real weight is if the offense listed is particularly egregious.

Thank you. I wish someone had kicked me in the head when I started. I don't know if I can ever live down all these posts. Its really embarrasing and as I've said 50 times I'm so sorry to everyone. I'm signing off now and going to bed hoping to end this nightmare.
|confused|

No idea where my misconception originated, but until a few minutes ago I thought that was a shared blacklist amongst the LLs that run that script too (yeah I got put on there when I first started also :) ).

Not much help in tracking down why the misconception is there, but I'm thinking there must be more than a few out there that think the same.

You aren't a real webmaster until you've made a complete cunt of yourself in front of your peers - welcome to the club ;)

That's why UW is my hero ;)

Still waiting for my next on-board breakdown, are ya?

I was going to ask DJilla to step away and take a few deep breaths before preceeding the other day, but I feared the irony of the situation would have made me poor counsel. I could already hear is reply ringing in my ears. "Who the fuck are you to tell any one to calm down and act rational?!!!" :D

I always thought that was the case. Anyone useing the BL sees an e-mail, domain or name on the list then all LL's using the BL canned your submissions. It's an easy assumption to make. A newb hears the words "shared blacklist". Make a stupid mistake several times and get on the list. If no rejection e-mail is sent with the reason the newb has no clue he's messing up and all of a sudden he gets the notice that he's blacklisted when he tries to submit at several LL's. What's the guy to think? I'm on a blacklist, several LL's won't accept my submissions, they MUST be sharing that black list. (incorrect assumption, but easy to make)
And, like DJ said, if the appeal gets ignored, the poor newb has no clue. Hopefully all appeals will be properly handled and a reason given if the appeal is denied.

Heheheh! At first I laughed and thought "how true" but then later I thought maybe not since I've always identified with your balls to the wall, Hunter Thompson style. But funny.
======================
Well, woke up this morn and it wasn't a nightmare I really did it. Thinking over and over how could this have happened I came to an answer that makes sense to me. Though I did one year towards a masters in psych before deciding that psych was crap (at least for me), I did (do) have a spiritual teacher (yeah I hear the guffaws) that a few years ago helped me understand not the reason but at least the pattern of my ... eh problem.

We came to the obvious conclusion that I only behaved that way toward a real enemy OR someone I didn't know. It never happened towards people I did know. Though I have come to know many by their posts, I still had this image in my head of an impersonal electronic identity and I think that went a long way in allowing me no reserve in how I acted. In the real world, I've also only directed my anger at the target and never people who weren't responsible. In this case I've disrespected 10s, 100s, 1000s, (OMG) of people who visit this board
and had nothing to do with my issue and to whom I again apoligize profusely.

But this is not anonymous. This community is as real as it gets, some of you so tight that you act like family. It may sound stupid but I've but my pic up on the avatar for awhile so now I can't hide and I'll feel like you guys know me too. I'll never be able to embarrass myself before you again.

I intend to be in this biz for a long while, I don't need to make a profit to stick around until the pieces fall in place and I want to be known as successful for others to be around. I may not need money but I need you guys/girls, each and every one of you and your basic good will.

Thanks ALOT for this second chance. Happy Holidays!

If you apologize one more time, I'm gonna put you back on the black list :D

|goodidea Affirmative!

Think that says it all :D

No worries DJ...we ALL have melt downs at some point or another. Yours just happened to be in public, though I really doubt anyone is going to hold it against you :)

Now, get your ass back to work and stop stressing over the issue |thumb

I got my present today |bananna|

I'm not sure how I'm going to keep an Orchid that requires a daytime temp of 75° alive thru a Buffalo winter, but I'll try :)

Male penguins keep their eggs and babies alive by keeping them between their legs all winter long. It's just a thought :)

Great! Glad it got there, they actually held it up a day so the weather would improve. Hmmm, didn't think bout that. After they told me that the Hummer that goes under the water wasn't really available, I opted for that as being the best opposite of my previous behaivor.

Happy Holidays Bud! Thankxxx

That does look like a cool Hummer |thumb

Hey Greenie, we have orchids year round in this neck of the woods :D

You can always keep it inside...

Greenguy must have a green thumb.

I mean, isn't that what your avatar keeps showing us?

:D

My thermostat is set at 65. I have a simple philosophy when it comes to heating the house in the winter:

You cold? Put on a fucking sweater!

Put it in the Viking. If you microwave it, it will not need watering.

We put it on a table near the fireplace, so it'll be hot & dried out in no time |thumb
