blonde poker forum

Ok, i may as well put my name to this since a good third of the slice of bother was down to the certain ways i have posted on Blonde, Mainly the football threads.

However, anyone who knows me can vouch that i am not an aggressive person, and most of my posts are taken to be aggressive when they aint 'Ment' to be, this does not take away the fact that i got very heated with a few Mods this past week and a few more posters, which has not really been fair to the Mods and only really taken their time away from matters of more importance

I have been a little silly of late the way ive acted on this forum, the guys that ive posted towards know who they are, and i apologize

When i was fighting, what i thought was my side of the arguement, i figured i was trying to change the way people thought of me(as being this aggressive type that just wants to cause bother), but ironically i was actually convinsing them that i was this over arressive fight seeker lol, i can see this know.

I must admit, it did get a little out of hand on some of the threads, and i know i didnt help things, again i can only apologies to the Mods and the whole Blonde Family, no-one really wants to see the threads go the way they did, I will now think about my debates in a more serious manor and re-read the posts and count to 10...in fact no....1,000,000 before i post.

In closing id like to Apologies to mainly Richard 'Tighty' Prew, who has really tried to help my situation out this past week (even if i couldnt see it till this morning) I really thought the big fella had it in for me, but after a chat with him yesterday and today, i realise he didnt and it was the opposite to what i was thinking. Sorry Big dude xx

Steph (Teacake) and Colchester Kev, also thanks to you guys, especially Steph, for helping me out.

Last but not least i must apologies to 'Tikay' - when i think of Blonde, i think of Tikay, Blonde is Tikay and Tikay is Blonde, so if im going to be honest about this week and some of the upsets, i must say sorry to the old fella, as i feel ive let him and Blonde down, again sorry matey.

Ok thats it off my chest, and now i can move on, and look onwards and upwards.

Keep Britain Blonde Tidy

Thanks for listening guys.

Scottish Dave

we all have different responses to things depending on our mood. im sometimes in the mood for a wee niggle myself. for what its worth ive never seen you being over agressive but ive not read the footie posts. dont beat yourself up buddy!

mad

Well said Dave.

Thanks Dave, much appreciated.

Very well said Dave  :)up

Love ya!

What they said xx

Well done Dave that must have taken guts mate  :)up

Shooting Dave.  8)

Hoooooorayyyyyyy  the real Dave is back..... Welcome back fella :)

Good post Dave!

was he really that bad? i need to keep more up to date with the forum!!

I was looking forward to the BB, but I was so afraid that you were going that I didn't bother going in the end :D.  I asked someone "is that Scottish Dave going to be there?" .  When I found out you would be there, It was "Ohh, Jesus I better not go in case he argues with me"  lol

Of course I am joking.   I can't say I have noticed any dodgy posts by you mate, they are entertaining as far as I can see

Mad, One mans tea is anothers poision. What one percieves as aggression might be percieved as banter by another, and a heated debate by a third. The medium of text does little to help convey the mood of the poster or the context, and it is up to the reader to make his own mind up. And if one person jumps to the "wrong" conclusion, you can bet your bottom dollar that others will too. And for the image blonde wants to portray, it just might be the next potential member who gets the wrong idea and is thus scared away, so its bad for blonde really.

Takes a man to confront his problems. Takes a bigger man to admit them publicly. Dave, my hats off to you.

 :respect:

actually mate, I think it's down to the poster to avoid ambiguity. If there's a chance a post could be taken as aggression or offensive banter it should be rephrased. There's a few of us here guilty of weighting stuff wrong and getting a hammering for it.  ;surrender;

there are also some who purposely stir up or twist ambiguous posts but that's a different issue. Those of us with a talent for putting our foot in it have to be especially careful when dealing with emotive issues or even avoid them altogether.  :-X

 :respect:

Dave,

What a courageous thing for you to do. I have no place (anymore) to say this on behalf of blonde, but thankyou, must have been tough writing that.

I remember being very curious about meeting you at bb1, after all your rather contentious posts regarding footy previous to then. But I think that meeting you at bb1 was one of my high points of that event. Such a nice guy, and so poles apart from the postings that were all we had to judge you on before then.

Please don't take that the wrong way, it's certainly not meant as anything other than me saying that once I had met you, and you had a chance to meet everyone else that I think it helped you to realise that other members of the forum were people too - sounds simple, but it's something many people never manage to make the leap to. Postings equate to people, and it's easy to say things on a screen with a keyboard that you would NEVER say to someone in a pub.

Anyway, I am rambling now, just wanted to say good for you, and that you just did a really good thing :)

good post Dave, controlling that latent anger inside of you will have great benefits with your poker game as well. Win-win situation

Thanks Dave, you are a big, big, man.

I actually wrote you an e-Mail while you were "away", wishing you well & that we'd soon see you back here, amongst your friends. And you are, so that's cool.

I empathise with you & now, I think, you with us.

This Forum is weird. It only takes a bit of bad blood, & it spreads right across the Forum, very quickly. Now & then it's awkward to control it, but generally the Members do it for us.

The whole purpose of this place is for a bunch of us to hang out & enjoy ourselves.

Someone mentioned meeting you at bB1. I well recall that day - it's fair to say, the Scots made the day what it was - they genuinely did. Much of what's good in blonde stemmed from that day at bB1. My affection for all of you has remained massive, ever since, & it will always be that way. We shall have the occasional tiff, but we are family.

I think your standing has grown in everyone's eyes today.

Ps - You are BANNED, you Jockish donkey.

xx

takes a bigger man to admit there wrong !  :respect: dave

dave the bash wasnt the same without you mate was gutted you werent there see you at bb4  :cheers:

If this jock bashing continues I will be forced to start the OLD MAN jokes, and when they start you know there is no stopping them!!

It would have been so easy to say,"Ah Sh@te to the lot of them" and walk away, believing you were 'bigger' than the lot of them.
It takes a real feeling person , to admit error,and apologise, my  :respect: to you for the action you took.

Now get back to the cards ;snoopy'sguns;

Bring it on. Jock.

And so say all of us.

 rotflmfao rotflmfao ;applause; ;fold;

Next?

 /:-|  move on no loitering please

 :respect:
Good post Dave, as others have said, very open and honest of you( although personally I haven't found you aggressive)
Perhaps others, who had got involved in the 'discussions' involving Dave should be just as honest ;)

You were very helpful to me at blonde bash 1 Dave , your a good bloke in my eyes  :)

Good post

Very good post Dave, I think this could well be the best post you've ever written. I was worried as you seemed to have a lot of anger inside you but I'm glad you've taken a breather and gone back to being the Scottish Dave we all know and love. You have been a man and apologised for your actions, people will have a lot of respect for you for that.

Welcome back Dave

Love Poppet xx

Thanks mate, ment it all.


No worries mate, ive sent you a further PM just there mate.


Big Girls Blouse!


Again cheers


It really did mate, but i felt i owed it to Blonde and certain others in particular, it felt good tho.


Eh? is this some sort of Half scouse, half Portuguese talk? lol


I was never away just slightly shadowed of late, ill always be here Kiv.


Thanks Animal man


No you dont, i wasnt pleasant


This made me Piss myself laughing, im so glad you came on and posted this on the thread mate, cheers Sarky-pants! lol still find it funny


Cheers matey, but seriously, with your hair style, id rather you kept your hat on Mikky.


Change that Avatar - it aint you in the pic lol


Heid - this post above was extremely an extremely nice this for you to post

As i said yes it was quite weird writing it, and actually reading it all back, glad i did tho. With regards meeting me being one of the highs of your BB1 - Woow, that says a lot, dont worry about saying this, i knew the way people thought of me at the time, BB1 was a great event for me, and i was so glad we got to speak more than most did, you are a totally genuine person, which makes this above post hit home so much more, again thanks Kid


LOL i never thought of that, good point, ill try it out tomorrow.


Tony, i was genuinely worried about how you as the 'Godfather' of blonde would react to this, and am so surprised at how you have, infact im so surprised at how all the mods have reacted TBH. Im just glad you took the time to actually give me the time of day and again and read this thread. Much appreciation to all the Mods.


It doesn that matey, dont you mean the bash wasnt as 'Rubbish' with out me? lol

Clearly yous only won the footy by default!!!!! as i wasnt there with my amazing fit footballing skills!


Get him Morrison


Yes it would have Eric, but it wouldnt have felt as good, and i would have lost something Great in Blonde Poker Forum.


Most of them werent around to see the initial Blonde so didnt see what was being ruined by all this.


I thought we agreed never to mention this in public again, what if Paul reads this!! lol thanks tho babe


Cheers mate, UL tonight with footy


And last but certainly in no way the least, My wee poppet lol

your comments are always appreciated Soph, looking back, i really did need that breather, glad i exhaled now.

---------------------------------

There you have it guys ive tried to repky to all your comments, ever just to say thanks for reading it.

To all members thanks for the second chance, not many people get one, and i consider myself lucky that i have, and that i figured it out before Tikay's sword fell lol

Lets all just hold hands and make Daisy Chains with no clothes on!

Scottish Dave

Now who's a big girls blouse? :D

im just very much in touch with my femanine side (Or am i just trying to get the sexy women on here to take all there clothes off)

Ill let you decide my Motives?

My clothes are off, but everyone seems to have run away.

My hairs better than your hair. It doesnt have baby sick in it ;)

Well done, David  :D :respect:

 :goodpost:
 :respect:

Have you become Admiral Adama from Battlestar Galactica?  :respect: if you have.

Nice post dave ..  it takes a lot to bite the bullet and write something like that, it also shows your desire to remain on the forum, your appreciation of blonde and everyone involved.

The easy option would have been to go out in a blaze of glory, a final few angry posts ... and accept the inevitable ban ... but it takes a lot more to handle it the way you have, accept your error of your ways and move on in a positive fashion. :respect:

I think the previous posts have said it all ... you have a lot of support on here, just do me two favours;

1.) Maybe give the ol' football threads a rest for a bit.

2.) Despite what has happened don't change your posts so they aren't an honest reflection of you! Blonde is a balance, and it needs  people like you to insite debate and make the threads interesting ... on the other side of the coin you no the limits and have rarely pushed the boundaries ... give or take the odd football thread!?

I have never met you, and don't know you from adam, but I will happily but you a beer at the fourth blonde bash.

Now finish munching your humble pie ... and get back on the forum!

Regards

Jon.

Nice post mate, thanks a lot.

Dont you worry matey, everyone who knows me, knows ill never really change at heart, i just kind of got lost in my ways lately, but thanks again for this reply, it was nice from a person ive never met before as youve said.

Magners or Guiness Extra cold, if im feeling saucy, its a Madouri and Lemonade (Oooo...Er!) any one of these will do matey.
