First things first: I've always liked weeder and found his shtick amusing. An acquired taste, perhaps, but it's strictly for shits & giggles. He DOES provide entertainment value for those so inclined/care enough to "get him". Some totally miss the boat w/him and that's amusing in and of itself (I could name names but I won't).
Rocketeer isn't one that misses the boat, he understands weeder's shtick but doesn't find it amusing and feels it gets excessive being this is a gambling forum and not Carrot Top's blog. I respect that opinion; my counter to that opinion is the*fact* that SBR stopped being strictly a gambling forum moons ago. I shouldn't have to elaborate as to this certainty or to how or WHY -- those that need elaboration on this fact will probably never get it anyway.
I also have always liked Shari and like zizou stated, I agree w/her 99% of the time. But, also similar to what zizou elocuted in his fine posts above, she's off the mark here, IMO. She engaged in a little intellectual 'bait & switch' by trying to make this a "soft" issue. Has nothing to do with *that* and everything to do with an AGREEMENT. Call me old fashioned, but I take giving your word (especially when entering an agreement) sacrosanct. To me, it's silly to try to put forth the argument that no forum "rules" were broken; uh, hello... everybody knows that. It wasn't a rules violation... weeder committed a honor violation. He failed to live up to his agreement w/ Rocketeer for his unbanning to (rightfully) proceed -- in short, Rocketeer was duped in the agreement and PAID IN FULL w/ his video only to be subsequently shafted.
Now, before I hear the counter of "SBR could give a rat's ass bout a honor violation we only care about rules violations yadda yadda" let's all remember that ... *drumroll* ... for better or worse, Shari (in fact) involved herself in this agreement. PERIOD. Horse left the barn -- can't disassociate from the agreement NOW and fall back on "forum rules". The standard should be what was agreed to; after all, was is not weeder that initiated admin participation? Ah, yeah, it was. And Shari obliged. The agreement was weeder had to do what rocketeer did in order to be unbanned. Simple, really. End of story.
Believe it or not, it's kinda important what Admin says previously (publicly) -- peeps remember.

Seaweed is an employee 100% just drame all bs...but who ever it is is a hoe moeeeeeeComment -
Whats a douchecanoe? Do they make those?Comment -
great post BiteMe...only thing is I dont think anyone "misses" the boat with him, we just tire about his BS stories. I like discussing games and facts on games...not dealing with a bunch of fiction. Seaweed needs to leave here and post at sesamestreet.orgFirst things first: I've always liked weeder and found his shtick amusing. An acquired taste, perhaps, but it's strictly for shits & giggles.

Get over yourself. I'm not fixated on you sweet pea. I made a comment in a thread (obviously hit home...all the more when they are correct LOL). Your lame actions are not unexpected.
You better run along now. Trigger Trace is in need of some more stroking. Don't bite off more than ......if you know what I mean sweat pea.

Shari don't get it. She never will. People of weak character don't know anything else. Weeder was all in character. The lame train of thought you see from her is the real thing.First things first: I've always liked weeder and found his shtick amusing.

What IS all this shit?
Is Shari like that guy in Me, Myself and Irene?
I thought I knew her.Comment -
I'd stay Rocket and rattle her cage. It takes no effort. Like picking on a midget.nah Razzer...I can't stand when people break their promises and I'm not talking about Seaweed right now
it leaves a bad taste in your mouth and makes you look at things differently
I'll be around...just not gonna post much - kinda like MillwakeMike does I guess
you can PM me if you wanna talk

Boys...All I gotta say is "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"
What's done is done.
Time to move on.Comment -
No way this is Shari posting.
I don't get it---should SBR be involved in every single silly dispute? Of course not.
But-- when a bet that gained the attention like this one did---- isn't honored, well, that doesn't help this place or it's posters.
Do those of us who disagree with it have a choice? Of course. We can go to other boards, we can block posters/messages, but, SBR could also from time to time-- hold a guy like Seaweed to his bet.
Come on Shari, you're reasonable. You know what Weeder did was messed up.Comment -
Sellweed I miss you manComment -

So is he back posting or not?Comment -
Wtf? Actually that's not a bad looking chicken.Originally posted by HERBJONESComment -
I was at Advance auto a few days ago and there was some fukktard shopping there that looked exactly like this guy and he was trying to tell me and the guys working there that pretty soon it was going to be illegal to drive a car because the technology was out that cars were going to drive themselves. I told him he didn't know what he was talking about and he got angry and said "Don't you understand English? It's going to happen!" What made it funny was that when he yelled this directly at me, I could see he had crooked eyes and shit.Originally posted by HERBJONESComment -
