As I said in my previous post, I only went by what was TOLD to me, I didn’t go on anyone’s Facebook page.  
What’s also funny is you’re saying I was speaking about you in PMs, when clearly I have no problem doing so on an open forum. I never neg repped you or PM’d anyone calling you any derogatory names, so good try on that. I never said you did it for financial gain at all, and you can even ask around to people I’ve talked about this entire situation to that I told them I didn’t think you would, I just compiled a list of things people in the mod section suggested, because even though the possibility was very slight, it was still there.

You can’t just admit you were wrong? I have no problem doing it. I even did it in this thread after you/Rich posted you were not selling the same space Vlad paid for to others, and said that I must’ve been mistaken or given false information.

Everything in that OP in this thread is a compilation of things that were told to me by others. I didn’t drum it all up by myself, as much as you may like to think I have some fascination with you to do so.

Chris asked a legitimate question.

I may be speaking out of line…as I’m not the leader of “rep” or participation…but,

Purely on principal…it’s a wicked scumbag move to read other peoples PM’s. If you care THAT much about what other people are saying about you, you should spend some time evaluating yourself as a person and decide if it’s worth the mental anguish.

I’m not a bandwagon jumper…I’ll never piss down someone’s back and tell them it’s raining. Nothing you can say will justify your response…you crossed certain lines that are deserving of ban.

Vlad…please get your forum/moderators under control. I can see this site going to hell in a hand basket faster than KKK can powder coat his penis gold.

Just offering my opinion. I’m sure all you dudes are legit as hell in real life, but rules are rules are rules.

Stuff in bold would get you fired from your job wouldnt it… What I am saying is, I love ya man, you stepped over the line with that one. I have system admin rights over sharepoint sites and active directory file systems with NYS financial information, peoples social security info, tax info, employment, un-employment, loooong list of stuff I could find on thousands of peopl in less than 10 minutes too. BUT you simply dont do that becasue its not right, or legal, NORE worth the risk.

Also from a security standpoint, having someone sit next to you and watch you perform admin actions like that is again flat out wrong. let alone thinking it was “funny” to do so.

Cossey, I fully admit that half of what you said was true.

Do i think that’s WRONG?

I guess so ? BUT I think what was done to me was wrong as well Cossey.

I am going to be posting my reply soon, which will tell my side of what I did.

Then after posting what I did, im going to post WHY i did it.

Then I hope after that, it will make some kind of sense.

I consider both of you to be pretty cool guys, so I will say that Cossey did indeed say he knew you had no milacious intent by reading the PMs.

I also want to say if anyone comes through and deletes all of this it’s nonsense. It needs to be resolved publicly after being made public.

Mike, I don’t work for shift so i guess I’m safe.

Someone sitting next to me, no offense to them when they read this, they are dumb as bricks and couldnt catch a 1/4 of what was going on. Make it sound like a big deal mike… please do lol.

you’re really wasting my energy mike, im trying to post up my reply now you’re bringing in the “i have access to important info and i could fuck shit up, but i dont”

dude… mike… me too. We all do. I don’t even have to say it but I have personal information for A LOT of people, its what comes with computer work. I could fuck up people’s lives too.

I dont, for the same reason why i never fucked up anyone’s shit on shift, the same reason why I haven’t deleted this forum.

let me fucking reply to the original bullshit mike, call my cell phone up if you got anythnig more to say , jesus christ.

**A message to the members of this forum that I have apparently put in danger.**  
If you read the OP and then post a response, or think a response close to what  
Sketchy, KrazyKid, Kicklow and others posted than I have to say… you’re an idiot.  
**“WHY AM I AN IDIOT?”**  
As TurboTravis said, there is always 3 sides to a story. Cossey’s , Mine, and the truth. There is only two available so you try to take the average between two and then base a conclusion.  
Most of you heard one side, then decided you couldn’t be late for the bandwagon and jumped onboard. You people suck, and I hate you. I am highly disappointed. Kicklow I have no idea your issue, I tried to meetup with you and buy your cell phone batteries in the past, found you buyers etc. It was just too hard to meetup with you on your schedule. Since then you always acted funny and now calling me a cork soaker… that’s a personal attack… something this forum is supposed to stand against. You met me in person before… are you really going be able to withhold that attitude and call me a cork soaker when we see each other again? I don’t think that’s right dude.  
Personal issues with me, yes of course Cossey has them. If this thread has nothing to do with personal issues and motivation to post gossip then I want to know where I missed JVG’s thread. I’m sure Cossey is well aware of JVG’s actions, personal attacks and LEGIT REAL racism attacks against me specifically.  
Cossey WILL NOT make a thread about JVG and what has been going on with JVG behind the scenes. This forum stands behind a very strict rule of NO PERSONAL ATTACKS what so ever, especially those of racism. That can only be taken so seriously when the actual members of this moderating team break the rules themselves.

**NOW ON WITH MY ACTUAL FUCKING REPLY**. Coming up in a minute if KKK can shut the fuck up.

It’s a private conversation between you and somebody else so I would think context would matter. Say you and I were best buds and we had a convo going back and forth about KK and you called him a homo as a joke. From my view point thats like you and i talking on the phone and it’s not a problem. However if I sent KK a nasty PM calling him a homo this that and the other thing that would be crossing the line. Just my opinion though.

not picking on you either KK :hug

You can’t shut shift down .period.

Shift is a feeling…an emotion. Shift is a state of mind.

Right about now I’m getting the feeling…the emotion, that I want to take a big SHIFT on your chest.

Edit: jk

What personal info do you have access to? Non-shift related?
