General Board: When did LA become so soft?

I'm around. When i get two minutes to sit down I'll pop in and have a read through things.. See what's going on.. ponder dropping something.. ponder battling (though i'd rather do that live)  - but mainly to survey the land i once ruled.. 

But seriously - with the music stuff I'm doing and the venue i run.. barely get the time .

No need to bow. I hate formality.

Granted, much time have passed after I wrote those and I've changed a shit ton as a writer. I don't condone it anymore and I'll admit I probably shouldn't have wrote that in my bars. However, rules are set in place to prevent the use of outside personals and now any surnames. If it is something that you have put on the site it becomes fair game. I've had Daydizzle use an offsite personal reference to my girl in a past OM. I never said a thing and I could have just easily removed it being a mod. In fact, I even left respectable feedback on the piece. There are def some that would have been up in arms and crying that this is 'why no one wants to be here, so on and so on'. I am not saying that it is allowed. But there is no need to be a bitch about it. They could just calmly pm a mod and we will take care of it accordingly as Stalin did pretty swiftly with the recent Neek situation. 

There is just a handful of people that either bitch and complain about it or use those rules to their advantage and try to hide information so they can go gung-ho on personals with their opponents and then have nothing there to be used against themselves.
