Truce - the sequel - cLaY - 07-27-2005
Hi the_elf...I think a truce is a great idea. I propose letting back all of the banned members, myself included...trolling UJ is kind of pointless, especially since none of the members there understand the logic of trolling. If any members from here want to troll we'll do it here, and if we want to engage in thought provoking conversation, we can do it at UJ. How's that sound?

If I was a chicken shit, I would have already been scared off by your trolls, Chubbs.
Yes...Tom is correct. Much of these types of gestures would have to come from Hoover himself. I'm just here to try to find out what gestures need to happen. And I would concur with you E that removing the filter on insanetrain would need to happen in order to promote peace between the sites. Whether anything actually happens or not, I cannot be sure.

TomF is really dancing a fine line, but I'd like to see him back. Until I learned the reasoning why he made the request to be banned, I figured that he was perhaps just performing another stunt, trying to be the most banned/unbanned member.
I'm not exactly sure where you went wrong, 8.
SanDog and NinjaBassist got a raw deal, but I think that Ninja might have gotten somewhat vehement toward the end of the whole ordeal.
Toe can get a little fiery at times, but I think he has it in him to play nice.
Used to have a lot of fun going back and forth with Beau. Not sure what went wrong there, besides perhaps some specific personality squabbles.
We sure did! I joined the old UJ and left the New UJ. I realize they had to lower the boom in several ways due to the influx of new members there. I just think they went about it in a completely wrong way. It pissed me off and I split. Simple as that. I'm not too sure how it would be now because I haven't been there to look in quite some time. I'm good for anything though. bygones can be bygones as far as I'm concerned. Perhaps we could bring a bit of the old style back. It's up to you. This is my home though. I been here since the beginning and I ain't leaving. But I have to admit, This place probably would never had gotten off the ground like it did without good old UJ.

Clay, that would be a big move for UJ, but it definately sounds like it might be reasonable. Unless you're all pulling my leg, and then it would just be a lot of administrative ban/unban work all for nothing.
And apparently I miss VitaminE.

I think the shiteaters filter adds some flair. I remember actually clicking on the damn thing right when I first joined UJ and was wondering what in the world the fuss was about concerning this "other" site.
Frankly, it made the real IT look much better once I figured it out...just sayin'

Elf, could you pre-emptively ban pepsi?
Actually, nevermind. That could be extremely humorous...

This entire thread has been devoted to what IT wants from UJ in order for there to be peace, and that's appreciated (by me, and probably others too).
There are always two sides to a truce though, so I'd like to see what UJ wants from IT members in order for the "feud" to end.

I say amnesty for all banned members (except bigots and spammers) and lets hope they run off the shitheads that are currently making UJ a suckfest.
If they act a fool, you can always ban them again.

Why are we naming 5? Hoover ain't Pontius Pilot (sp) yo. Should be that all who ask can be unbanned if it's gonna go down.

This is the best post in this thread...It gets really bad in there sometimes.

5 was for my own personal pleasure.. it has nothing to do with banned or being banned...
Elf would UJ enter into an open discussion about a truce similar to this?

I would love just to see the animosity go away. No more troll attacks from here. It doesn't take much to make me happy. Just have everyone for the most part playing nice together.

Elf, I like you. You are really trying to do what you think is best and I respect that. What I would say though is that while we are all sitting around jerking ourselves off, we have to consider something.
I am not sure that much would be different in the behavior of the members from here going back. If a mod or member says or does something, they will be called out, egos will be bruised, and bannings will probably start again. Only difference is, so much shit would most likely be stirred that you would end creating a whole new generation of oppressed feeling people and the membership increases.
I think you are on the money about the size of the community having a lot to do with it.

Maybe you could start a thread where all the unbanned members come in and state that they will not troll the board? Just an idea...
I'm not pulling your leg, if UJers can come here and have fun, why can't we go there and have fun? We're all adults, its time we start following the rules each board provides.

On a side note:
hey yellowdog, could you pull yourself out of this thread and go hang out in the thread I started just for you? Jeesh.

You know damn well there are few members here that would never stop trolling. That is what they do.
