Brokedad I'm sad to see that you have now decided to start throwing mud to me and trying to discredit me and the site you once used to love
The reason I know the contents of your conversation with another Pinside member is because that other member decided to forward it to me by e-mail. And rightfully so, the things you said and did are inexcusable. The contents of your messages to that person was my reason to withdraw your moderator rights. I explained this to you in a kind and mature matter. I never told you to leave the site, just that you could no longer be a moderator. Your response to me were, as I recall, two captial words. And even after that I stayed nice to you. Changed your title to "retired pinside hero". Still, you try to discredit me with this. I can't believe my eyes. I can't believe I'm actually writing this as it has completely zilch to do with pinball or anything this site is about. It's the kind of crap I've been trying to avoid on this site for 10 years.
Just for the record (and yes, this may be considered a disclaimer): No one with access to the Pinside database (that would be my brother and myself) has ever read other people's PinsideMail messages. PinsideMail IS private, that has always been the whole idea behind it. I can't believe any sane person would think that, apart from building, extending and managing this website I would also have the time to read PRIVATE messages between others people. Your message are NOT read by anyone but yourself and the person you are messaging.
Brokedad, can we please leave at at this? I really don't want to have the whole conversation and everything out in the open. But if you insist people read the truth then that's what will happen. Again, I respect you for all your participation and I'm sad to see you leave like this, but apparently this is what you wanted and here we are.
