Let's thank Tdarcos for a job well done
I have been paying Tdarcos $20 the last couple months (with another payment coming on the 15th) to post on the other website I maintain, caltrops.com. It has been a raging success. Worm has even asked that the site be deleted, that is how HOT things are over there.
It all stemmed from Paul doing a great job getting the conversation flowing.
Three cheers for Commander Tansin A. Darcos!

Should you be posting this publicly? I mean, someone from over there might find the place over here...

It's great that you're paying Paul to be a content creator on your other website but then why are you placing restrictions and constantly banning him here? Do you have something against this place or us? Was pinback right again? This whole thing makes me sick to my stomach, shame on you.

Maybe ICJ could pay all the trumpster assholes on caltrops to leave so it can go back to being a bearable place to read about games and prostitutes.

I feel that limiting political opinions to one side is the wrong way to go. Have you seen leftist sites that drove out all the Republicans? The Straight Dope Message Board, Something Awful Forums, Metafilter? They are absolute shitholes. I will never run a place where I intend to drive people off because of political leaning, my friend.

That's fair, just saying maybe you want to rename caltrops to something more accurate like dilbert blog.Ice Cream Jonsey wrote: Wed Jul 11, 2018 8:20 pm I feel that limiting political opinions to one side is the wrong way to go.

The problem here is you, CO. You shoehorn politics into everything.

Yeah as someone who didn’t even vote for Trump, it’s like a broken record. It’s not even as entertaining as one from the 1950s of Hawaiian organ music constantly skipping from all the pits in it.
CO do you not remember Obama being blamed for everything? Do you not see this as a repeat of the same bullshit you made fun of them for at least to some extent? Maybe give it a rest, man.

it's actually the opposite, he was competent and ethical but I'm not trying to argue with people who don't care about facts.Jizaboz wrote: Thu Jul 12, 2018 4:20 pm CO do you not remember Obama being blamed for everything?

I'm just mentioning to ICJ that Caltrops used to be quirky and intellectual but now it seems to be just a bunch of trump fanboys ganging up on Worn. These people infest certain websites or threads and it's a repeat lies to each other circle jerk from then on.

maybe, but of what his Trump support has done to his blog, "You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy."

Re: Let's thank Tdarcos for a job well done
Being "middle of the road" in these times is unacceptable, as it implies you are partly sympathetic and in agreement with a treasonous crime syndicate using racism and nationalism to drum up support for its leader, the most vile, despicable human on the face of the planet, and who threatens to destroy any and all of what you say you hold dear.
Am I a hero? I really can't say. But, yes.

Isn't there a political base on this forum? I blame AArdvark for allowing this to get so far out of hand. Shame on you.

Re: Let's thank Tdarcos for a job well done
I'll note a couple of things. I didn't say anything to anyone about the payments because of FTC regulations over "sponsored content." When one releases a particular piece of content based on someone paying for that particular subject, that's considered "sponsored content," and you're supposed to indicate it was paid for.Ice Cream Jonsey wrote: Tue Jul 10, 2018 7:16 pm I have been paying Tdarcos $20 the last couple months (with another payment coming on the 15th) to post on the other website I maintain, caltrops.com.

However, payment to do articles or other material without regard to the subject matter are not considered "sponsored content," and do not require it be identified as paid for. That is the status of what I posted. In a few cases I posted items that disagreed with my own opinions to see what others thought.
This is why - plus the fact everybody wanted their name listed as sponsors - when I did the crepe video I identified it as being sponsored by my three friends.
This makes the writing or videos I do in full compliance with FTC regulations. Those rules are mainly to make sure if one releases a paid advertisement it is distinguishable from "ordinary" content.
The last time Jonsey paid me to post articles to Caltrops one of the other cretinous reprobates there posted some messages in an utterly hilarious "expose" style as if we were doing something tawdry.

Yeah, last thing I need is the FTC on my ass because I gave a disabled man $60 to post on a web forum.
