The $40 should be used for a grave stone.
We truly are The Institute for Nostalgia.... and forever delusionally optimistic.
The eternal hope that modern Tyde would deliver some kinda hit in the face of perpetual posting hate and awfulness speaks to how great he once was.
The $40 Freeroll Win Denied would serve a true forum hero as the source of rich & endless material. Druff was feeding you a sweet ally-oop right above the rim.
Well, you now see an aging superstar flailing at the fastball. No chance that he was gonna make contact. We knew - but we are always hopeful he will give us a glimpse of the skills that made him famous. Now we just cringe & feel embarrassed. As the decrepit player walks to the dugout after striking out YET AGAIN he gives his former fans the middle finger.
Well, fuck you too big guy.
Tyde was a fixture in an odd corner of the poker boom. His place in history is assured. With time and a timeout he will be remembered more fondly. This ban just helps to maybe restore the image he was actively destroying.
This guy is Pete Rose during the last World Series. 100%
Been here a couple of years. I heard the talk. This is goddamned Tyde. Buckle up. Still waiting. I saw brief glimpses.
Tyde once could fucking write and post. Others reposted bits of his old material. When I think of this "Ms Pacman" comes to mind first. A couple of quarters and he produced a masterpiece. Well, we have Mexico, $40 and so much other possibility. Nothing. Zip. Just embarrassing hate, sloth and personal attacks.
Every time you give his posts a shot you feel your hope get heel stomped. Got me again, Tyde.
I always felt that if he could adopt self deprecation and humor, Tyde could write a degenerate chronical of the poker boom (you guys got the email that it's over, right?) that would be irresistable. Kid could get published.
Tyde should forward a treatment for approval prior to any possible consideration for reinstatement.
I just post this shit cause I feel cheated.
Hate trumps humor. Get well soon.
Remember the tail end of Drexel's radio show? Drexel was peppering Adamanium, Daredevil, Handicapme and the listeners with NWP & DD trivia.
Can you imagine Tyde participating during a break in his psychosis? The show would still be on air.
I think that other drugs have been in the mix for awhile or the rotgut has begun to take an ever further toll on his acuity.
Or it could just be the environment...I don't think I would last a week if I were forced to drink a fifth a day in a dungeon in the barrio with no human interaction.
The (likely fictional) story about punching out his car window in a drunken pockled rage was amusing, though.

Druff--How permanent is PFA's break with the JDonk?
Have you sent him the $40 and told him not to come back?
Is there a channel open to him to request his money?
Can he work his way back into acceptance here (i.e., probation)?
moving all the way to a permanent ban seems rash and I would think it would be better if a progressive series of restrictions had been tried first
but whatever you choose is okay with me
if the ban is permanent I would advise you pay him his $40 so he won't have that attention getter to include in his tales to the uninformed
(thanks Pooh, corrected uniformed to uninformed---man you are quick!)

I DONT LIKE THEM DISRESPECTING MY GUY MORT LIKE THIS COME TO SKATZROW WERE HAVING A ROUSING DISCUSSION ON ISTHMUS'S
Marty is building a state of the art competing website as we speak, last I heard he was outsourcing the wordpress plugin installation.
Slava Ukraini!
FREE JEWDONK -- maybe.
I remember someone made a remix to the infamous Super Bowl Sunday video synced up with the main song from 'Requiem for a Dream', was perfect.
Anyone have that one?

Question to inform this rookie: I've seen Druff refer to Marty as "Dr. ...". Does he actually have an advanced degree, or is that in reference to an inside joke or claim Marty has made in the past?
I once knew a guy who told me that every time he met someone, he would immediately work on figuring out what he could say to hurt that person the most. It was then that I realized he was some kind of sociopath. I later saw him put it into practice, arguing with a friend over a few dollars, then coming out of left field with a "yeah, well your brother killed himself" crack.
It seems that Mort tries to do the same thing, but he really sucks at pinpointing the weak spots.
