Pretty sure that's not the real alwaysafan. Could be wrong though.

I didn't see this. Where can I find it?

There are at least 2 other site mod's over here, 'Peake and Zambrown and one more but they don't have the same user name so I won't out them. The alwaysafan here isn't the same one as there.

It can't be alwaysafan. If it were, he would already have several thousand posts.

Here was the interaction:
to Eric Frantz:
I for one. Fab1b. I didn't like the move you were making, like many others and chose to head over to ..^~+..^~+..^~+..^~+..^~+..^~+..^~+..^~+..^~+..^~+ ..^~+..^~+..^~+..^~+..^~+. I have never once broke any rules on JJhuddle. Not one of my nearly 5600 posts ever broke any rules. I was having fun at JJhuddle's expense on another site sure, my right to do so but didn't post on here anything here negative. I was quite obvious someone from here was over there reading threads and banning people for posting over there. Some of your mods act like nazi's! They also have their buddies, what one poster posts will get them banned while others continually slide. There are a long list of things now wrong about this site. I don't want to pay to play I am sorry but always loved JJhuddle, met many good friends here and will continue my posting elsewhere but you need to be aware of maybe how some of your Mods act and how some of your decisions has affected your site. The people make this site. You got dollars from advertising and it sounds like you got some bucks form posters in the past as well.

From Eric Frantz:
Understand your compassion and stance. Do you have a lsit of usernames of people kicked off? As for the route we're taking, it had to be done plain and simple. And $12 is not a lot.

Back to Eric Frantz:
You can ask your mods for a list of names they banned from the site for posing on other sites. I'm not sure either if after you are banned you can go back and review posts or not but you will see none of them were banned for breaking rules here. $12 isn't alot this I know, its more of the principal. I am cool.

as soon as this ended I was banned again

Is it really that important to keep a "moderator" status? Or is it more of a membership-anxiety?

I can vouch for the fact that even mods can post on both sites, but I've been very careful to say nothing inflammatory on either. It's a shame that it's come down to people getting gonged simply for being on another site. I've loved the huddle for almost 5 years and hate to see what is happening but I have no control over it. I hope I am still able to access both sites as both will have info that will be helpful in terms of the wrestling forum, but that will be up to the powers that be at the Huddle.

They are "cleansing" their site like crazy. If you even question their new policy or discuss how slow things are over there, they delete it. Amazing! It's beyond deleting threads that are inappropriate or even "rants"... they are deleting ANYTHING that might question or soil.

I was posting with a few reasonable huddlers. Admins come in and try to "spin" that everything is fine and things are as good as ever. A few of us indicated that the spin was a bit too much.... Thread gone!

Wow! They are scared! They are deleting ANYTHING that could soil their brand. To me, the cleansing is soiling their brand.

I think heel was confused on what I told him.

I told him I thought I'd be banned from here, since I was a moderator at the other place.

Welcome... as long as you watch what you say here, you won't be banned there.

But then again, the powers at be in JJland have been skittish lately and doing irrational things.

I was banned for plugging this site. The official reason was "account under review". Yea, they just didn't like me plugging this site to people that were asking about it.

Yea, I did it in an inconspicuous way, but only because I knew I'd get banned if I flat-out came out and said it.

The fact that people are allowed to be on this site and the other proves that this site is far superior. I was banned for plugging this site over there. How ridiculous. I was on that site since 2000/2001 (the beginning) and I didn't break any rules but got a lifetime ban. So much for loyalty. :rolleyes:
