dkhughes Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 This is D I woke up this morning to respond to my own topic and I read this..... Sorry, your posting rights have been temporarily suspended. The suspension is due to end on Feb 27 2004, 11:43 PM. I am still waiting for a response from anybody from Groundspeak. I feel this is rude. My new attitude will stay positive if I can get a simple explanation. Is this a test to see if I turn into MR. HYDE, I won't. I am sick of being the bad guy, but it's kinda hard when you have to deal with stuff like this. Thanks Groundspeak for all the good times, and bad..........LOL Link to comment
+Halden Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 (edited) I have to admit I don't know what you have done since returning to get suspended if all the stuff you pulled before didn't. How about a Compass Rose? Edited February 13, 2004 by Halden Link to comment
Tahosa and Sons Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 If this topic was offensive or off key it would appropriate to shut it down, but its still open so it must not be all that bad. And if it isn't that bad then why would someone lose their posting rights? Maybe this is a message to all of us, if we try and rock the boat they will just throw us overboard! Link to comment

+The Cheeseheads Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 So you use an illegal sock puppet account to ask the question? Question answered. Apparantly being banned doesn't stop you from sending PMs, as I had this question in my inbox this morning as well. Link to comment
+The Weasel Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 Anybody know of a good avatar for "Cybill"? Link to comment
+mtn-man Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 I'm going to ask everyone to please post positive constructive comments and avatars in this topic from now on. As my mom used to say, if you don't have anything good to say, then don't say anything at all. Duane is making an effort here. I do think he is making a good effort to change. We can all help him at this time by being supportive of his efforts to get back into the community. There are reasons why he has been temporarily suspended. The decision by Groundspeak is between Duane and Groundspeak and it serves no positive purpose to discuss it here. Let's be positive and make this a win-win for everyone in the long run. I suggested the Chi avatar that Duane posted above. I created that for him no knowing his pup had passed away. I was trying to help him. There are a couple of good ones in this topic but there are a lot of bad ones. Come on group. Let's see if we can help him out. Link to comment

There are a couple of good ones in this topic but there are a lot of bad ones. Come on group. Let's see if we can help him out. It's always been my opinion that your avatar is something personal that you want to represent you (probably close to the definition of the word) and in mose cases (smurf-day aside) I don't see why you would want somebody to select your avatar for you. I also don't see how a change of avatars is an indication of wanting to change one's ways. If Duane is making an effort at it though, then that's great! I think a good first step would be to pick his own avatar. I think most people (myself included) assumed that the post to start this thread was just a bit of trolling. His claims of wanting to change become less credible though, now that we know he's been banned for most of February. Again, I hope his claims are true, however, I think this thread should probably have been shut down a long time ago, since the bashing is probably not productive. Link to comment
+The Weasel Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 Well maybe a list of likes, hobbies, intrests would give people an idea where to look or design. Personally, I think the screenname you have is borderline offensive and can't come up with anything off that. Link to comment
+LaPaglia Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 Personaly I think this one is most fitting. Something about Spots never changing comes to mind. Link to comment

+Geo Ho Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 Nothing is more positive that a smiley . . . and one with a heart? Can't get much sweeter and nicer than that!! Of course, I happen to be partial to smileys. Happy caching and stuff! Link to comment
+Mopar Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 Ok, I'm trying really hard to be nice like mtn-man said, nobdy hijacked my account. If you look at the profile for dkhughes, it's not a sockpuppet, it's Duane's dad. I don't know why he's banned, I suspect someone either finally got to some emails he sent, or he was supposed to have been banned after the last time and when he started posting someone realized the ban wasn't in effect. Whatever, that's between him and gc.com, but dkhughes isn't a sockpuppet. OK, now that I had to stick up for Duane, I gotta go shower. I feel "dirty". Link to comment

It seems to fit for D though as long a he keeps his chit together. For the record Duane, whatever you did in the past is water under the bridge. That's just my personal attitude. You've been pretty excepting of the flames lately I give you credit for that. Good luck. I'd like to hear why you were banned at this point BTW too. Link to comment

Seriously I don't see D starving for anymore attention as someone asking the people here to design their sig item or name their geodog. Maybe D got some meds and he's all better now. (Thats not a flame D. Just trying to be mildly amusing.) D, chill. Lose the sock puppet. Whatever the reason you were suspended from these forums, be suspended. You're not showing TPTB good faith by posting under a different name. Now both of you kiss and make-up! Edited February 14, 2004 by JMBella Link to comment

You have said your peace bons so please get back to the topic of a suggested avatar. I will close this topic until he gets back if need be. Everyone, please bring it back to the topic and please keep it positive. Edited February 14, 2004 by mtn-man Link to comment
