Are you kidding me? Looks like an obvious attempt to bait people by throwing in AFTC in the middle of 4 high profile artists. If that doesn't smack of ill intentions and inviting trouble, I don't know what does. If anyone else posted this, it clearly would have been in jest, but coming from you it's an invite to be ridiculed so you can then cry foul. I doubt there's an iota of sincerity there.

And why is it that your older IP addresses trace to the United Arab Emirates, which seems to be a popular destination/place of work of past troublemakers? Seriously Minty, you're looking more and more like a plant from the Zzzzone, which I'm sure you're familiar with though thou doth protest (others are vouching for you over there from what I understand). And you do seem real keen on boosting your post count as if to ensure that you'll have credibility here on the board. I think you're feigned defense of Celine Dion and Mike + The Mechanics rules that out.

[/quote]Alright, now let me start by saying this: ban me if you want.

First of all I am fed up shitless with how I am being treated here. What I thought was a minority of idiots/dumbasses who had something (Lord knows what) against me is rapidly turning into a fairly large proportion of the members here. I am being constantly battered and criticized for every word, sentence, and post. I hate it.

Secondly I already explained why I would defend such artists as Celine Dion and AFTC in a previous thread. It's just wrong to insult anyone, and the remarks said about those two (especially Celine) are absolutely horrific. Yes club80 I KNOW Celine will never read this, but does that mean we can go on and on about her? I'd much prefer someone to insult me face-to-face so I could give them a haymaker right there than to insult me behind me back, me not knowing, which is especially cruel when that person doesn't even know you.

Third of all Mike, you sussed me out, I'll give you that. Obviously Apart From The Crowd would not be in my top 500 artists, never mind 5. I DID mean it as a joke, yet your comment about me wanting to be ridiculed then cry foul is so absurd I don't know what to say. I have way more important things to do than to victimize myself on an internet messageboard.

Fourth, I have NEVER been to the UAE in my life so I haven't got a clue where you got that notion from. And for those of you who post at the "Zone" tell the folks who vouched for me I said hi and thank them. And since I haven't the slightest clue what the Zone is, tell them I'm sorry I won't be joining them anytime soon.

Fifth, Mike I am INTENTIONALLY no longer posting in the NNNW section to avoid any trouble, give me a break. For you to still think I want to start trouble around here is ludicrous. You've also stopped our post counts increasing in the Games section. And I've been OK with that, never complained or said anything. And yet you still think my goal on this board is to get the highest post count to increase my credibility? Unbelievable. What more can I do?

I'll end by saying this again: ban me if you want.

No. No banning. You're gonna have to work for bannage. Short of that it would be better to see you stop posting on your own, if you're up to the task.

And this coming from someone who is critical of other members' musical tastes but will defend Celine Dion to no end.

For example, here Minty (IP address traces to Kuwait) is quick to complain about overrated songs yet cannot tolerate cracks about Celine Dion and Mike+Mechanics:[xx(]
http://www.nwoutpost.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=23699

The moderators have had numerous issues with Menthesque as have I and it's time for this likely imposter to move on.

You know I just don't get it because Minty was willing to start some decent musical posts and contributed quite a bit but then goes off in fits of rage and paranoia, like some disgruntled, banned ex-member would.
