Great post by Cory from WEG on GFY

[Weg Cory]

I don’t dislike Oprano, nor do I hold grudges against anyone who said anything aggressive towards me. Chat forums in essence are small rooms housing a diversity of guest / ideologies; turbulence and feuds are bound to occur. The only ones whom lose are those that can’t look past the occurrences. In a sense, they are self-righteous.

That said my distaste regarding the past situation was traced directly to the abuse of personal information, whether that was in the way of threats or direct publication. Gonzo was the driver on that and when I look up at the design of the board, I am reminded that he has vested interest in the board.

You don’t sit down with a known GFY loudmouth and tell them anything of significance, because if you do, you risk having your words, thoughts, ideas and personal life compromised. It is the same concept. Boards need fuel to run and I understand who holds the pump.

Please do not interpret the prior two paragraphs as rehashing, rather, just me being candid where it seemed relevant.

I am not a moderator on JBM, contrary to popular belief. I like Brad; he has always been nice to me. I have lunch with Chris at least once a month. I post there because I am comfortable and because I enjoy the daily threads on the board. I offer assistance if they ever need it, mostly with text. I chime in on V-Bulletine at times as well via icq. But I am not an employee.

I don’t monitor all the boards, between Gabe, Peaches and Ruth; they have it covered and know more people than I do.

Nick, sorry to hear about the database being compromised; par for the course, yet discouraging all the same. There is no lesson to learn here, you will always need people to help and people will always need opportunities from you. You run a webmaster resource, the reward of helping everyone out is at times the lavishing in the spotlight while other times it is the unpropitious. You can’t expect one without the other, but you would not have the money that you do if I had to tell you that, I am just making my point.

I think Oprano is a great, resourceful board with a host of informed members. If you allowed things like what Lee did hinder your philosophies, it would not be of much value. Some things speak for themselves. The most important points are often proven by what is not said.

"Of course there is no formula for success except perhaps an unconditional acceptance of life and what it brings."
-Arthur Rubinstein

Hope Everyone is well and the kind words are appreciated.

Cory.

Please make this man come back. The writer is begging.
(That "whom" should have been "who," but even so....)
He uses semi-colons and metaphors.
Please.

I don't know Cory, but after reading his post, I would very much like to. He needs to stick around here.

Gabe's largest concern is the heat. He hired a couple of models to follow him around with a mist bottle.

I think he is paying the guys $20 / hour. That is a steal if you ask me.
