The rest of the story................
What he actually did was copy your edit under the GGW advertisement.Hethen quoted Spice on this thread and pasted it there.It was to make the point that the rules apparently don't apply to everyone the same way.Where is your sense of humor?You had one yesterday.
Main Entry: fo·rum
Pronunciation: ˈfȯr-əm
Function: noun
Inflected Form(s): plural forums also fo·ra -ə
Etymology: Latin; akin to Latin foris outside, fores door — more at door
Date: 15th century
1 a : the marketplace or public place of an ancient Roman city forming the center of judicial and public business b : a public meeting place for open discussion c : a medium (as a newspaper or online service ) of open discussion or expression of ideas
I have,at times strongly I guess,disagreed with other posters on here.This is the nature of a forum.As for SHADRACH, I don't think he has ever entered an argument on here.Of course,that is impossible to check,since no one can view his posts now.I invite anyone to check out my previous post and judge for yourself.I have never had a post deleted or edited by anyone but me.If you just want people here that agree completely with each other,you will have a tight group,but a very small one.The fact that you are invisible while on here is rather disturbing,being the owner and all.I also find it disturbing that you denied knowledge on the deletions until you were pressed upon it.
With the downturn in the news section of this site,driving more people to the RNT site,this forum board is all you have going for you.And controversy is what brings people to this site.you got the figures,can you dispute that is not true?
I feel strongly that this post will probably get me banned for disagreeing with your actions.If that happens,I will take your advice and find something fun to do.Perhaps I will spend my time calling your advertisers and explaining why I am boycotting them.
Last person here please unplug the logo.Opps,it's already unplugged and fading fast.

Who "owns" this site now? I think this is a complete joke!!! Everything went so smoothly before... we all agreed to disagree. No big deal. Now all the sudden the one causing all the trouble is the owner... am I right? Unfortunately, people who dont know how to run a "business" can easily make it fold. I like what RNW USE to be... oh well... just my two cents.

Partygurl, I have never known this site to run smoothly, especially during the elections, both local and National. What the new owner is trying to do is stop those people who come here and post things specifically for the purpose of causing trouble. If you have been reading the threads, you will see where that has been done several times.
We can agree to disagree but when someone deliberately goes against forum rules and continues to do so after being notified that they are violating the rules, the owner should have every right to put a stop to it and the former owner did as well.

Yes Spice. As usual you have the right of it. Please, please do not go anywhere. You can get rid of that snickering swine though. It creeps me out like clowns. LOL

I don't trust you.
There's a well planned out pathology to your posting here. Almost as if you are setting up trouble, taking notes, then jumping on it just to cause trouble. You know exactly what happened, and where it happened, yet the admin has no logs to find out any of this.
Then you keep saying "this will get me banned" like you are trying to have that happen so you can have some sword to throw yourself on in some drama laden last scene.
It's like you're intention is to kick the forum when it's down and keep kicking it until it's dead.
Am I wrong? Have you posted anything other than troublesome posts? If so accept my apology, but from where I'm sitting you come off as a manipulative rabble rouser bent on destruction, wanting to be banned hoping it will cause more trouble.
This isn't my fight, I'm just sitting here watching and thought I'd make my opinion known. My apologies to the community if this causes any flames to be fanned.

mentioning 'jerry and his produce stand' isnt really free advertising, if that were the case then you've just plugged him as well, isnt jerry paying for an ad here?
Yes JD has an add posted on the regular paper side, I think and it is just my opinion that if we see a paid ad and we happen to want to mention it and discuss it, that is great. It gives the ad more run for it's money and also encourages more ad usage. That is what a PAID ad is for.
Now if you come in and try to post unpaid for ads. then you deserve what you get.
Diamond you an I also have a history, and I can see from recent posts you have not changed much.

David,
I think the only history we had was over a local eatery that had moved to Armuchee.I stated facts I knew to be true,While you blindly defended the owner.Like I predicted,He did not make it far past the first rent payment.Sorry we did not agree,but I think time proved me right.And no one I know has tried to post a unpaid ad,so that is really not an issue with me.

No there was one long before that, but as to the restaurant I have not bothered to ask why he closed but I do know he paid his rent, at least at that spot. And I did not BLINDLY defend, I defended because I like the place and the owner when I met him.

Yeah,you are wrong.And you give me way to much credit.Re-read some of these post by others and I think you will find that I am not the only one unhappy with the way things are being handled here.Unless you think I've got all those people on my payroll ,too.Or perhaps I am really the admin trying to increase traffic.Every one wants to stop and gawk at a train wreck,which this place is quickly becoming.
And yes,the admin has logs.I have been truthful about this situation,while the admin has denied and then admitted their actions.And there were not several posts by Shadrach,there were two.It was there and gone so he posted the same thing a few minutes later.The admin needs to lay off the smoke screen.And there was no pm warning,which he would have surely respected,just banishment.
I expected to be banned after that post.It is the way things are now. You have moderators(former?)predicting that another thread on here would be closed,because the admin did not like it.
And I accept your apology.I guess you are a stand up guy.
