Dude, this is getting to be ridiculous. 

Your incessant self-promotion of your website and requsts that we vist it is starting to border on 

You've now copied and pasted THE EXACT SAME MESSAGE on this forum TWICE today, in addition to the NUMEROUS obsequious requests you've posted in the past.  To insure that YOU get this message, I'm going to do LIKEWISE!

Seriously, you've done some nice work on your cabs, but KNOCK IT OFF. 

I'll give you a tip.  If you have people going to your website, it's because they LIKE it.  If you have to resort to the tactics you are starting to employ here, people DON'T like your site, or there's not enough interest to keep them coming back, and:

NO AMOUNT OF BEGGING ON YOUR PART WILL CHANGE IT, IT ONLY MAKES YOU SOUND CHILDISH, AND P.O. PEOPLE WHO MIGHT HAVE GONE THERE, BUT NOW WON'T!!

LOL

Drew, I thought you were a little harsh, so I went to his site (just to spite you).  The fact that he uses the same cartoon porn Icon as Admin on his forum scares me.

So I checked his most recent posts and you're right, the majority of his posts are begging people to go to his site.

I hate when people keep saying the same thing over and over.

By the way, for those of you who forgot, BUSH WON!

Please forgive me, I've had a tough week.

Point made loud and clear.

Oh by the way, I did not intetionally post the same stuff twice, I thought I had put it in the wrong place --BINGO! Either that, or I was attempting to say "before" but it was too many letters to type-- but I could not delete it!!

I'm new on this forum and just noticed your hostility to this guy  ???

I checked out his site and forum and what I saw was quite good (may even join up on his forum!!)

Is this hostility normal on this forum - doesn't look like he was doing any harm!!!

I think the main part of the hostitlity came from 99% of his posts telling  people to visit his site. And even his posts that gave information for others included a message to go to his site. It almost seems that he became a member here to plug his site and not help others build controls or further his knowledge here.

In order to gain some background click on a member's name to see their profille.  Click the "see latest posts of this member".

Also, you'll have to make sure when you read a post, you read all of it.  I noticed in yours that you speak of going to his site, and noticing his wunnerful cabs.  I say this, because you seem to have missed where I said
Seriously, you've done some nice work on your cabs,

A little investigation and you'll see what Shape D is talking about, and what triggered my rant.

As for hostile, you may not want to go back to the political threads - you may singe your eyebrows from the heated exchanges there.

Chill out Drew, at least his site is arcade related and he's built some nice cabs.

It could be worse. For example he might have provided tons of pointless links to some wacko extreme right-wing sites!

What am I saying, no one would do that on an arcade forum would they?

Boyowilkins, if you're still here, why don't you ask Saint to add your forum to the "Other Site Forums" link at the top of this page?

Well it's safe to go to http://www.goatse.cx now, they've had their site pulled (can't imagine why...)

And I would certainly not recommend looking for a mirror of it....
