I had considered saying fuck it, and doing just that -- making a rule that the new forum can't be promoted or linked, and then dropping the matter.
However, I am interested in hearing everyone out. I'm not going to sit there debating or arguing for hours though. If the tone of the conversation is, "Regardless of how it looks, this was all 100% innocent and it you're just taking it the wrong way", it will be a very short call.
I'm not looking for apologies or asskissing. However, if I don't feel I'm being dealt with honestly, I'll just get off the call and be done. And if they are dealing with me honestly, then we can discuss where to go from there.
It is very possible that we won't reach any sort of agreement, and will just have to go our separate ways.
Happy World Snake Day!!!
World Snake Day is celebrated every year on July 16 to raise awareness about the different types of snake species and the important role they play in maintaining ecological balance. Did you know, for example, that there are over 3,500 species of snakes in the world, but only about 600 of them are venomous.
the truth is though, they probably shouldn't be promoting their website on pfa, even if you ultimately permit them to do so. the bottom line is you would prefer them not do that, so they should just go by your preference. that would be the amicable end result.
and i like everyone involved over there and will probably make an account at some point. i haven't yet cause i know so little about investing it's just not something i could intelligently discuss. i don't even think i have any posts in the elon musk threads on pfa.
tine, i might need a day trading for dummies starter thread.
Hi Von Strucker I hope your visa problems are finally resolved! Greetings to everyone else as well!
These certainly are strange times we live in.
I'll try to make this post as short as possible.
I haven't posted here except one short cameo (FREE CHAPS!!!) since the cmoney debacle. I didn't agree with it from the start. Advised against it. Wouldn't participate in it etc. But i still maintained several close offline relationships with forum members i.e. Druff, Plol, Sonatine, simpdog, shefaced etc. In fact, this past April 1st a lady friend of mine spent over 3 hours on the phone with BetCheckBet posing as stripper who moonlighted as a phone census taker for the Cambodian government.
I digress...
Almost 3 years ago I went to Best Buy and spent $1300 on a dell xps laptop that Druff assured me had the correct stereo mix software to do radio. My intent was to do my own, non poker related type show on PFA. Unfortunately the version of stereo mix on the dell wasn't compatible with the way druff runs radio so I was left with an expensive laptop I didn't need.
I stopped doing radio with Druff only because I was burnt out of talking about poker. Especially in such a long format. I knew I couldn't sit there week after week and contribute without making sarcastic comments, tangents, and the like which I knew would annoy Druff and change the tone of the show that he wanted. There really is a demand for the type of show Druff does and I didn't want to ruin it for the weekly listeners who enjoyed it and expected the same content and format week after week.
I recently came back to radio after Traderrusky asked me to come on. Druff was gracious to cater the 2 shows I was on to my interests and we had 2 great shows. But Druff knew that I was never going to be able to be on week in and week out. I would burn out pretty fast.
My forum and real life friend Sonatine messages me a few months back. Tells me he is starting a stock forum. Tells me he ONLY wants to talk stocks. Doesn't want the poker stuff nor any pfa drama spilling over. I wish him luck and tell him I'll support my friend in anyway I can. Without me knowing or asking Sonatine makes me a mod without any expectation of me actually doing anything.
Plol is also a good online and real life friend. Part of being home so much during this Asian Virus has given me clarity. My relationship with Plol has made me realize for the first time that I am pansexual. Although I have never been with a man in any sexual capacity, I have come to find myself very attracted to him. He is thin, very neat, clean cut and enjoys several interests I do such as fine dining, sports and travelling. As of now we are quite affectionate towards each other but not sexual in any way.
I only mention this because a couple of weeks ago, PLOL proposed that the four of us (Sonatine, SS, PLOL, myself) do a radio show together. It was agreed it would be non poker, non gambling etc and not in any way be similar to Druffs show. It would be on a youtube channel live and we would all appear on video, which is something I had never done before. It piqued my interest.
I have always been a fan of SS. I think he is a comedic genius. Plus he knows all the technical stuff to run a show, which I of course don't. It was a no brainer for me and I was pretty excited.
Sonatine had been on other shows with me and he is hilarious, smart, and very witty.
PLOL has the perfect dry sense of humor for a show like ours and knows me well, so i knew the chemistry would be great.
We agreed to do 10 shows on Sunday night and then we could reevaluate after to continue on or pull the plug. But we all committed to do 10. Druff was incorrect in stating that Sunday night was chosen to compete with PFA. Only PLOL knew Druff was currently doing pfa radio on Sundays. Sonatine, who suggested the day, stated he had no idea as Druff does move around radio days from time to time.
Lastly, I made it clear to my 3 partners that I would only do this if it didn't copy Druff's show. I suggested we all work together- we would promote pfa radio, Druff would give our show a shout out. Back in the Vegas Poker Radio days, this is exactly what we did and it worked out fine. I even did two shows a week for over a year.
Point being, I never endorsed nor would I ever support a competing site to PFA. We all can disagree on many things. Even I, from time to time have had civil disagreements with Druff on past decisions, but that's the nature of the beast. Its inevitable and quite impossible for every decision Druff has made to be popular with everyone. But Druff unquestionably has dedicated more time and energy to keep this community together than anyone else has and for that singular reason alone, no one should try to create a similar site with the expressed motive of tearing PFA apart. There barely is enough traffic to keep one site afloat.
So that's really it. I know some of you are going to think I did something sinister, as I do always seem to be involved with this type of nonsense.The truth is really everything I posted. I am sure Druff would even validate what I have stated. I really detest being a part of any of this drama. I don't want to hurt PFA or this community. I just would like to do a fun show with my friends that I hope all of you would enjoy.

Hey dipshit. Know your fucking place. You been here what a year? 18 months? Some of us have been here for 15 years. Plol was lurking on NWP on a fucking Packard Bell desktop when he was just 11.
Show the motherfucking respect that's been earned.
Even mumbles learned to tone it down.

Don;tr= get the joke but appreciate the acknowledgement...
Jesus fucking christ, do you get paged when someone mentions your name here?
you don't get the joke?
i really have to explain it?
cmoney called you posing as cmoneys grieving brother after cmoney died but it was really cmoney....
seriously though, hope you are well.
My current takeaway from all this is Tine started a site to discuss lolstocks, and for PLOP to try to bang Brandon and Thomas, possibly while going by the name "Andy"
Oh, and Druff is mad at almost everyone.
BUCKLE UP FOLKS
I didn’t insult anyone. Thanks for insulting me. I was a fan of yours on the radio. This group think and back slapping each other is really a major reason new posters don’t even bother. Good luck to you. Cool to call a stranger a dipshit just because your buddies give the go ahead. Pile on.
thread may end up being interesting after all lol
but yeah i can see this being a joke too, or is it ?????
