[quote=xherbivorex ]y'know, i actually know johnnie/JY in person and i find it difficult to believe that background collusion took place. i think it's more likely he's been set up somehow.
Or that something said/written in jest has been taken more seriously than it was intended. I've learnt not to use "subtle" in anything involving STW and/or the mods as it is too easily misconstrued.
JY, along with others were coordinating a planned trolling campaign by email in the background

Wow! Do some people have anything else happening in their lives?
Seemed harmless enough to me....although I never really had any exchanges with him that I can recall.
I had plenty, and can't recall him saying anything I objected to - if anything he was actually rather more polite than I was expecting some of the time, and actually more willing to see other people's POV than many on here.
Of course I can't comment at all on anything Mark said.
I hope ST Towers have provided protective custardy to the snitch. I wouldn't want to be him on a cold night in the internet... 😀
If true... wow. That's a whole new level, as above, makes my pointless timewasting look better by comparison though, so, errr, thanks. I guess.
yossarian +1 😆
protective custardy
Hmmmm, custard! 🙂
If there's even a sniff of truth to Mark's post (And i see no reason to doubt him so far, I mean, why post that on his own forum if it's not true?), that's rather sad.
Tutankhamen!
And back on topic...

mleh world?
mleh world
its an alternative to stw with less posters but more swearing and in-jokes from memory. I didn't know it was still going tbh
I'm disappointed I wasn't invited to the trolling party! What does a chap have to do? Perhaps I disqualified myself by owning a bicycle.
Talking of the departed - where has 'Jamie' gone? I miss his amusing quips. A definite positive on the forum.
Wow wouldn't have put JY in the category of loony, people really plotting to cause arguments on a bike forum?????
Forgive me but it all seems way to far fetched
10 year ban apparently.
It was not an individual post that served as the final straw rather evidence we were supplied that showed that JY, along with others were coordinating a planned trolling campaign by email in the background. ie. deliberately setting up threads to 'kick off' so to speak.. mostly with the explicit intention of winding up the moderators.
Really? Can we see the 'evidence'? 🙂
Seems unlikely. I never saw anything from JY I would call trolling - unlike some others on here.
Did all the e mail plotters suffer the same fate?
what sort of evidence did you have in mind.....
To: rebellious singletrackers
Subject: Op EndBellDear Comrades, the thyme has cum, unleash petty squabbling, All the best
that sort of thing?

Actually, surely if there was a conspiracy to troll the board Kaesae would have posted a collection of 90 minute youtube vids about it at some point.
Somewhere in the STW squabblers bunker....

Sheesh, like the gunpowder plot...only in April...and a few century's later....

Well if the moderation here wasn't so anal there wouldn't be anything to react against.
I think Cougar does a good job of moderating things the only other one I know of is Drac. Modding just seems random to me.
i genuinely do blame thatcher for this
that bloke hasn't got enough hair to be JYJunkie is the one in the foreground
Evidence?
[url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/profile/junkyard ]exhibit A[/url] topics started in last 12months 2 WTDs, 1 STW ride arranged and one thread gently mocking STW community, and on page 1 seemed to be going well and taken in the spirit I think it was meant, dunno if it went downhill later I.N.R.A.T.S and all that 🙂
STW; argue can kiss my ass (and the poster is invited to do the same).
Edit; ah, it's Fred. Still a cock then. Let it go, man. People don't like you. My email is in my profile if fred would like to discuss it further.
I would suggest you could do with taking some your own advise

I haven't given any. Pointless emailing myself, isn't it?
I'll thank you to keep your suggestions to yourself, particularly where it doesn't concern you.
*emails self with stern words about continuing to read this thread*
Wrecker why don't you and A-A have a fight? We could get Steve Walsh to ref 😀

You do know this is a public forum don't you?
It feels distinctly like a goading to me. Probably with the intention of getting me walloped by the banhammer. Also probably not all A_A's work either....
Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're not out to get you.....

how I laughed.
So who were the other members of the e-mail plot,or is Junky about to be exposed as having multiple log ins?

What would you say if I told you I could produce emails proving the conspiracy?

I'd say go for it.

i'd say show me to my seat and bring me some popcorn!
let it go man
seems like advise you should take to me, if you dont like peoples opinions dont post on a forum.
What would you say if I told you I could produce emails proving the conspiracy?
Wouldn't surprise me in the least. I'm not really bothered though. I wouldn't get involved if I were you (I mean that in a friendly way).
Sorry everyone I was just [s]trolling[/s] joking. Please don't ban me! 🙂
For what it's worth I've met Junkyard too, he offered to teach me some Bike Maintenance when I posted asking for details of bike shops that did courses etc.
I was pretty new here at the time and he had no reason to offer his time to teach me stuff for free.
He invited me to his house, and spent a good few hours of his time teaching me some maintenance and bike building/tinkering stuff, and gave me a few spares and stuff that would help me out.
Thoroughly nice bloke. And even though we tended to not agree on some things discussed on here, its a real shame he has been kicked off, he's one of the people on here that debates a point well in my opinion, and never seemed like a troll at all.
(And I would be amazed if this "conspiracy" is true)
...scratches his head at yossarian still posting...emails the junta to suggest they check his and J-y,s ISP add... 😆
Is it much of a plot if after the event most people didn't notice?
I'm not really bothered though.
not the way its coming over
evidence we were supplied that showed that JY, along with others were coordinating a planned trolling campaign by email in the background
I'm really interested to see exactly what sort of evidence has been acted on to ban me, I mean Junkyard 🙂
Sounds like its come from a 3rd party if you read Mark's statement. 'Supplied' infers that it was presented rather than discovered doesn't it? Who would do that and why?
