I thought it looked like a new New England Patriot logo.

No, because the Bible believers will find some text that explains aliens, just like dinosaurs (as "leviathans'') Unfortunately for a lot of people, faith trumps facts.

Guest#7acd, from GTB's mismanaged chat system, when Gary claimed to have received an email from Howie to "shut down guest posting" in his shout box.

My autographed Bieber drum head and collage.... Jealous? [ATTACH=full]13._xfImport[/ATTACH]

RIP Merle the Pearl

You guys are just jealous that he found 5 women to sleep around with, with that mug. I don't have a problem with his face, but his voice drives me crazy, in a bad way. A Candadian/Latino condescending prick.

For a number of years now, EllisLab has been marketing their ExpressionEngine product as the be-all end-all in CMS management. A few years ago, they released their 2.0 version of the platform which was built upon CodeIgniter (priced at $299), I thought that was wonderful, but it turns out CodeIgniter was already dying a slow death, and EllisLab, it's maintainer, practically abandoned new development on it. The ExpressionEngine product stagnated, due to a number of reasons, and really didn't take off as much as EllisLab would have liked, even after offering a "personal" version to download for free. The officially licensed forum addon module and multi-site manager were priced at $50 each. And then, the promise of ExpressionEngine 3.0 was announced, and this, THIS, was going to be the answer that people were looking for. It was going to be a revolution. Along with EE 3.0, the antiquated forum module was offered as a free addon. Eventually, the Wiki addon was also packaged with the CMS as a free gift. Addons for EE 2.0 wouldn't work with EE 3.0, but only minor changes were required, according to Derek Jones, CEO of EllisLab. There was a lot of fanfare, but no advertising, and not a lot of talk about the product. So EE 3.0 has been out for a while, and it looks like a few developers have left the "devotee" dev site for EE, or they don't plan to upgrade their addons to EE 3.0. I haven't used EE myself, so I'm not sure what the real problem is with it, if anything. I've read some reports from devs that think EE has lost any edge that it may have. Between 3.0 and 2.0 versions, EllisLab changed their support licenses, pissing off practically everybody that had a support license with EllisLab. Also during that time, they donated the code and license for the CodeIgniter framework to the British Columbia Institute of Technology. It appears to be a better managed production now than when EllisLab owned it. There was no price increase (thankfully) for EE 3.0, and upgrades were priced at $149. The EllisLab Forums were overrun by spam for a period of over 9 months. I don't think they had a single moderator or staff member sign on to answer any questions, or clean that crap up, but they've archived almost all of the forums that they held for CodeIgniter and EE support, and created new ones that appear to be better moderated. You can tell by the forum software that it is about 10 years behind the software leaders in this category. It EE wouldn't have abandoned it all those years, it may have been quite a contender, at certainly a better product than WordPress' BuddyPress. Regarding the EE CMS/blog system itself, you can't even search for articles on the EllisLab.com site, so I wonder if it just isn't a very good feature, or it's a hog on resources. tl;dr; I don't understand why anybody would pay $299 for the drama behind EE when Wordpress is free, has more third party addons and support, and is better maintained.

Coming from Gawker, this is expected, but I thought it was interesting. One incident doesn't make the guy a dbag, but there seems to be a lot of these types of stories about Kasich out there on the interwebs. The RNC had better work on cleaning up his image a bit if they want to use the "install as prez" button on him. John Kasich Was a Dick Eight Years Ago and He's Still a Dick Today Before John Kasich was a presidential candidate, before he was the governor of Ohio, he was a managing director at Lehman Brothers. A lot of things have changed for Kasich since his days in the private sector, but one thing hasn’t. He was a jerk back then, and he’s still a jerk now. In 2008, Kasich was pulled over by a Columbus police officer named Robert Barrett after he failed to move into the left lane as he passed a traffic stop, which is required by law in Ohio. He was pulled over and given an $85 ticket. Three years later, Kasich was governor, and was giving a speech to Ohio employees of the Environmental Protection Agency. He talked about being pulled over that day, using it to make a vague point about how government employees should be more responsive to taxpayers. He also seemed to be airing out a grudge: he referred to the officer involved as an idiot multiple times and suggested that he was pulled over wrongly. (The video incorrectly dates the speech to January 8 2008; it was in fact given in January 2011.) more... http://gawker.com/john-kasich-was-a-dick-eight-years-ago-and-hes-still-a-1766239915

The true Cruz fans showed up in Wisconsin and think they are on their way to the whitehouse. Unfortunately for him. I don't think it's feasibly possible for Cruz to actually overtake trump in the delegate voting, if poll numbers are to be believed. I think Trump is predicted to win all the delegates in NY, and over half the delegates in CA, if I remember correctly. Those won't put him over 1237, though. I don't see the RNC choosing the lessor evil of Cruz as the candidate, especially since Kasich is still around waiting for orders from headquarters. lol

The Bernheads have spoken, they think they are going to overtake this nomination with a Bernie SURGE! Even if the DNC was on the up and up, and hadn't already readied HRC for this nomination, I don't think enough young Bernie voters would actually show up at the polls and outvote the baby boomers. But good for Bernie and The Donald for shaking up the system. A lot more entertaining election year, that's for sure.

Numbers will be skyrocketing soon. Howie's got the vbresult's 'web view' mobile app available. Howie, well somebody paid by Howie, replaced the Tapatalk nag banner at the top of TAZ with the Vbresult's branded app. [ATTACH=full]12._xfImport[/ATTACH] Originally, I thought Howie would be interested in Slavik's mobile app development effort, because that is a traditionsl, native app. The Vbresults app is a web browser wrapper with notifications, which is probably adequate for most TAZ members.

GTB MADE your forum Paul. You'd be nowhere without his advice and guidance. Admit it. All that free advice GTB gsve you, and what thanks does he get? You should be kissing his ass

Why you sonofa.... Stand by for the ban, restriction, and unban...!

I just got a email from Bobby Trendy, and he says that Howie and GTB are bad news, and has already sent both of them a cease and desist order. I respect Bobby Trendy's opinion, therefore, I will do whatever he says.

It pains me to say it, but Mark.B is the voice of reason on that site.

Answers for GTB's questions. My point was that who would join a forum where an admin random bans, unbans, and restricts members, without explanation? Enjoy talking to yourself, I guess. Well, not through Christmas right? You were going to shut it down December 5th, so you might have paid that 15 euros through December 5th or 6th of 2016. They might refund you 7 or 8 euros if you close it down now. You never know unless you ask. No, nobody in their right mind would donate now. Hopefully whoever did (sheldon? tool?) will get a refund.

This is some of what he had going on earlier. Even a spotting of a random registration, and pleading by registered and unregistered members to throw in the towel. Guest#ba7c Banned, be he must. Guest#ba7c lol @Guest#8f83 Guest#8f83 probably already banned Guest#ba7c GD got a new member?!?!?! wow Guest#ba7c wait Guest#ba7c Go FratYousef!

I'm enjoying giving them more reasons to keep posting about me on TheViceZone. At some point they'll realise they have no choice but to close it down because they've said too much Guest#1f01 you are being played for a fool, and frankly, I'm starting to believe it. Guest#1f01 Gary you're better than this Guest#fe54 This is Rosenzweig, clean this shit up. now. GTB Lets not makes lies up about posting home addresses SneakyDave just to suit you posting the chat log fromm this shoutbox up on your own forum later ;) Guest#4093 you can't even spell proxy bitterman Guest#4093 how do you know all of tool's IP's are proxies.

I wouldn't show anyones real IP used Guest#4093 Howard commandment "Do not post IP addresses waist sizes or home addresses". You posted all three of tool's data. apologize Guest#4093 you post home address, waist size, and IP address of tool. Bitterman did it. screen shots have been filed with host.

GTB Well, if you want to hide behind the guest ID's, fine. But actually any of you 4 musketeers could log-in and post in chat as a user without using the forums Guest#b337 sorry, that was me again (gary) Guest#b337 thanks, good idea, it will drive traffic and SEO good will be Guest#87d3 you should create a bunch of ALTs with these guest names Green Bay Guest#7ec9 fixed now Guest#7ec9 New thread "should I post one liners like meetdilip on paul's dead forum?" GTB sorry guest you still have same ID used ;) Nice try though Guest#7ec9 sorry that was me not logged in (gary) Guest#7ec9 meetdipshit, name he is GTB And stop that meetdelip from spamming those pathectic one liner topics (50 a day).

Guest#7ec9 don't let these musketeers burn force you to burn down your forum GTB, ban them outright. GTB So much hate... Guest#ba7c new thread, "now stolen are my graphics, accused other members yes" then removed after dinner tonight Guest#7ec9 menthols, no filters? GTB I don't think filebase counts total downloads of all time Guest#7ec9 It's not a crime if nobody downloads them and won't donate to download them GTB not stolen Guest#ba7c the ones no one downloads? Guest#7ec9 the stolen ones? GTB Hey! I can still use the forum for uploading my graphics too. ;) Guest#ba7c at least you'll be able to buy a carton or two of smokes! then go back to phpBB and wiping your 1.3 posts you get each week GTB Not really Guest#7ec9 15+ years of admin experience, down the shitter Guest#ba7c you should sell you license while it still has value before 4.2 comes out Guest#ba7c NO ONE is talking much! GTB Mark isn't talking much. Guest#7ec9 as soon as mark.b shows up Guest#ba7c taking bets, when will shoutbox be turned off again? Guest#d070 Enjoy your day GTB. Best of luck with your site. GTB Same place as always- glued to TAZ Guest#7ec9 Where's howard? GTB lol GTB So you calling them all castaways Guest#ba7c you should have called it NotTheAdminZone.com Guest#ba7c GD Forums, where the cast-aways that get banned from TAZ hang out :) GTB So much hostility... Guest#7ec9 can you post the latest email from Howard again please? Guest#d070 You have the option GTB. I don't recall saying you were. Pretty certain that is the entire concept of "either/or". GTB Hey, I didn't post the (Crickets) comment as a guest Guest#ba7c omfg, i get it now!!! GTB is really Yoda! Guest#7ec9 and then, thread deleted Guest#ba7c sorry, forgot to make it in GTB speak "He bitch me called, think do you?" Guest#ba7c wait, new thread coming "He called me a bitch now, what do you think?" and more crickets Guest#ba7c gtb is getting exactly the attention he wants now, by having a few people here chatting to his lonely ass on his dead ass forums.... GTB Oh! So I'm a bitch now... Guest#d070 Either be a man, or a little bitch. End of. Guest#7ec9 banning people indicates some kind of negative behavior. I think banning a member requires an explanation, but we all know GTB won't bring himself to explain that he was just wrong. Guest#ba7c and more of that great grammar "You might keep more quiet Sheldon" Guest#d070 The answer: It's simply the point. Guest#ba7c the bigger question is, who cares if you are banned here? not like anything happens here Guest#00a1 (crickets) Guest#d070 And checking my posts for "abuse" or "trolling"? Look at every post I've had here. Zero removed. Not a thing wrong with any of them. You know you are wrong. You should man up and admit it. Guest#c04b daily chat self destruct in 10 minutes Guest#c04b Are you sleeping with Howard? Why are you so concerned about his opinion? Guest#d070 Fuck Howard. He can stuck my fucking cock. I treat you with respect, i expected the same. I don't view our treat you the way others do, so why do you continually add me in with them? It's bullshit. You know it. GTB Even in resticted group you can still all use the forums posting. Just that your posts are being checked first for trolling and abuse now GTB You have always been part of the group with SneakyDave and PaulKet. You might keep more quiet Sheldon saying less than them, but you're still in the same boat... even Howard points that one out. Guest#d070 You don't want me here, say it, don't play little games. C'mon now. Guest#d070 Like that was a gift from the kindness of his heart. Guest#d070 Then restricted. Guest#d070 Then banned. Guest#d070 I don't need, much less want a refund. I simply would like to see an apology, as well as an explanation as to why i am continually added, thread tagged, etc. GTB You need get it out your head Tool that you think this forum is here purely for your spam feast against me and the site. As that is all you do anyway when posting here GTB You need get it out your head Tool that you think this forum is here purely for your spam feat against me and the site. As that is all you do anyway when posting here Guest#ba7c ok, ive given you 4 mins more than you deserve, enjoy sitting there looking at your empty forums, night night GTB Never going to happen again that one. GTB I won't allow guest to post on the forums. Guest#ba7c well, gtb and succeed shouldn't be used in the same sentence, maybe he'll refund your money Guest#d070 And checking my posts for "abuse" or "trolling"? Look at every post I've had here. Zero removed. Not a thing wrong with any of them. You know you are wrong. You should man up and admit it. Guest#d070 I donate to a lot of places. I like seeing people succeed. Guest#ba7c wtf would you donate here? Guest#ba7c you donated? lolz Guest#d070 Have at it GTB. I registered here, donated, and post when i can, and all you do is continually ban me or restrict me. Guest#ba7c you should allow guest posting, it would be fun, and at least give you something to do by removing the posts daily Guest#d070 Why do you continually add me into this nonsense? Because i registered somewhere else? I haven't said anything negative about you, only i thought you banning me was ridiculous. Yet here you go with this nonsense. GTB I said "how many". Guest#ba7c wtf is who many? Guest#ba7c how many* GTB And beyond.... GTB Doesn't matter how many, or how few are posting here. It won't effect the fact the forum will still be here at Christmas ;) Guest#ba7c shoutbox on, shoutbox off, threads deleted, threads re-started, 0 posts in nearly 2 days, sounds like a successful forum to me GTB Doesn't he realise the sites hosting is paid till December up-front. ;) GTB Why does SneakyDave think I'm going to close the forum just because them 4 don't post here now?

The Arizona campaign election fraud people didn't do themselves any favors when they came out originally and claimed "voter fraud". Sounded more like "voter ignorance" at first. I suspect this will just be yet another wild goose chase.

I'm waiting for this Wisconsin primary to be over, suspecting that Kasich will finally throw in the towel. Being mathematically eliminated from winning, if he stays in the race after Wisconsin, it proves (to me) that "the establishment" wants to keep him around in case Trump doesn't get the majority of delegates, and use Kasich as the spoiler to get the nomination.

This thread is just a setup to explain why he'll be shutting the forum down soon, and moving on to TAZ as a moderator, as rumored by [uSER=6]@#11[/uSER] Banning half your membership will kill a site faster than a site exposing an admin's hypocrisy.

Gary wants me to post a screen shot of the convo, but I can't because it was a pop up chat (try it yourself web-hosting.com - web hosting service. Website hosting for all websites., and click "live chat"), and I don't want to paste together 4 screen shots so that he can say they were somehow doctored. I had the chat transcript emailed to me. I encourage anybody that wants to know the truth about Gary's claims to use web-hosting.com's Live Chat to ask them, and refer to the conversation above. I eagerly anticipate Gary's complaint to vultr about his DDoS problem. He has now switched gears, and claims that maybe it is Paul that is attacking him so mercilessly.
