Hey Mods, Can We Get Redhook Reinstated?

[VintageComics]

You come home and see your kid being pummeled by someone, you call the cops calmly or beat the hell of that person without ever thinking of the consequences from your reaction.

 

Well, that example would be appropriate if Red's son were being beat up by Goon.

 

But we're talking about a stupid funny book forum spat, where Red then chose join a previously-banned member to commit fraud and "pay back" Goonchild.

 

Plus, you beat up a kid and you still get arrested, and probably sued by his parents.

 

Exactly. Drama over printed books. I mean I understand a little heat of the moment stuff...but fueds that last indefinitely? , I'd spank my kids for that!

Brian, that is too "pat" a statement. there are exceptions to everything. If we could collectively find a way to take down Hammer for a bundle (as he has likely done to countless hobbyists over the years) and donate it to HERO or somesuch, you'd be telling me that "the ends don't justify the means"?

 

No they don't, and as you obviously disagree with that, it makes me feel very bad for you.

Brad, send the book back already if you are reading the boards

[Mr. Zipper]

Correct.

 

A "sting" is when you set someone up to catch them in the act of THEM doing something wrong. Then the proper authorities mete out justice.

 

Scamming a scammer is "vengence," not a "sting."

[cd4ever]

Arch, can we have greggy banned again?

[nik]

Like I said,

 

people react differently in certain situations.

 

I don't condone what he did but the guy has done far more good than bad around this joint.

 

If we were all perfect, we would have halos over our avatars

[burntboy]

This has got to stop, I am sick of it.

 

Brad just emailed me and called me a lier. If I misunderstood his email to me in repsonse to me asking him to mail Cap N Mandi to me then I am sorry.

 

Here is Brads email and his recent response 5 miutes ago. I will let everyone decide for themselves what to make of it and leave it alone. And while I dont like posting emails from people i want to get this out in the open once and for all and be done with it.

 

 

 

Brads reply to me last night after I asked him to mail back Cap n Mandi

 

I've decided not to take any action one way or the other on this

matter until I am reinstated on the CGC Boards for a period of six

months. Please don't contact me again,

or use others as go-betweens. Give it up. I will set my mail program

to automatically send your emails to the trash.

 

 

And an email I got 5 minutes ago

I never said I was holding anything hostage. Try the truth for a

change. Scumbag.

 

 

Again, I'll say that this is truly bewildering...

 

and what's with the reinstatement FOR six months??

 

I've got to contact him..........

[nearmint]

I find it very disturbing to see Brad call Kenny a "scumbag".

 

I agree. Kenny's about as far from being a scumbag as you can get.

I understand this sentiment, and we bear the consequences of our actions. Sometimes, those consequences are permanent.

[Old Fashion PB and J]

Ok. Unethical behavior is not something we really need more of. And vengance ? Come on, if someone had specifically went out of there way to scam me. I would not pity them,and if the courts would not take action. Then it would be up to me, to handle the situation as I saw fit. And hopefully after I calm down. I just can't agree with anyone shilling or scamming, for whatever reason. I would just make there life miserable until they left willingly.

I finally found the threads that refer to "Cap N Mandi" so I know what is going on...

Brian, that is too "pat" a statement. there are exceptions to everything. If we could collectively find a way to take down Hammer for a bundle (as he has likely done to countless hobbyists over the years) and donate it to HERO or somesuch, you'd be telling me that "the ends don't justify the means"?

 

No they don't, and as you obviously disagree with that, it makes me feel very bad for you.

 

Now who's being NAIVE (apparently your new favorite word) and sanctimonious???

 

ALTHOUGH, i guess i can understand. I probably felt even worse for you for welshing on that bet with Shad way back when, while the whole board watched in amazement...

[OldGuy]

Harry,

 

The problem is that when you hold yourself up to this ultimately higher standard of ethics that Brad always trumpeted he represented, you can't go and engage in the very activity you want to prevent, whether it's to catch a "criminal" or to "right a wrong".

 

Two wrongs do not make a right.

 

But three right do make a left. (thumbs u

Well, that's enough for me to drop Brad like a lead brick. I was pulling for him until this. I don't care at this point if I ever have contact with him again.

 

You can change my "yes" vote to a "no", not that it matters anyway.

Why not break open that bottle of JD and get an early start?
