Which reminds me, Where the bloody hell is Nemesis these days?

I think after he attacked a certain member he has not been back since.

He didnt attack anyone!!

He defended himself, as a part of this defense he stopped posting for a while but as a result of a continuation of this situation, 6 days ago he was barred for two weeks.

ludicrous!




Thats a damn shame, he was one of the most entertaining and informative posters on here.

I'd like to trade in my current Dell laptop and get one of those beautys, but have no idea how much my current one would be worth.  It was bought in December last year, specs are:

Dell Inspiron MXC051 Inter Pentium M processor 1.86 GHZ 781 MHZ
760 MB Ram
60 GB hard drive

Wireless enabled and DVD writer etc.  Any ideas how much it'd be worth?

Nemesis is a friend and I think it is sad that a guy who has given so much to this forum is barred at all.  People have quarrels, it is part of life.  Bolt and myself have had comments with each other, but we get on ok now  Cheesy ( I think )  .   I like both Nem and the other person involved, I am sure they are able to sort this out themselves or just not talk to each other if they can't

Absoloutly Sark!!!!

Mind you ive been here 9 months and you've been due a goodun

( Theres a LOT more than 1 other guy in this thats been out of order to nemesis)

Guys, If you want a moderated forum then you have to trust those that have to make the decisions to do so in the best interests of everyone and in the a way that is fair and consistent.

People arent suspended on a whim, and with respect no one is in possesion of all the facts APART from those who reached the decision.

O.k, fair enough, then let me just specify to anyone reading that i'm in possesion of all the facts as nemesis sees and understands the situation.

Ive conversed with him several times over the phone about it, both prior and subsequent to the mods becoming aware of any incident and IMO not only is he unequivicaly in the right with regards to the series of events that led to his suspension but in my own opinion he's been treated very poorly by those in positions of power in blonde, some of whom he thought of as freinds, very sad indeed and a great loss to blonde.

There is also the remote possibility that Nem's version of the facts might be ever so slightly bias

he wasnt even posting before he was barred.

Its my hope that he will come back when he is able to access the site again.

You can stop him from posting, but you cant make him post so it might not be "for 2 weeks"

He was in fact posting on the open forum ... the fact that we deleted his post immediately may mean that not many saw it.


As for the last paragraph, that would be a decision that only Nem could make and it would be his decision and no one else can be held responsible if that is the case.

And for the record, I sincerely hope that wont be the case.

so then it stands to reason that if the falable human being is capable of bending the truth for the sake of personal benefit then those in charge of his suspension may harbour the propensity to be "ever so slightly bias" also?

Or it may just be the case that those that had to make a decision held the facts from both sides of the argument.

yes, i understand that, but my riposte was meant uniquely to adress red-dogs assertion that nemesis may have been disingenuous in articulating his version of events to me.

I agree, although I think that for the entire group (mods and admin) to be guilty of this at the same time is stretching it a bit, and I don't see the personal benefit angle.

At the end of the day it comes down to Kev's earlier point, you trust us, or you don't.

From my experiance of your capabilites to moderate the forum in the time ive been here i would say i do.

Nemesis is decent bloke and i think you've got ths one wrong.
