I understand and TBH, I can see GFY's viewpoint on this pretty clearly....BUT.....IMHO, Dean should not have been banned for what he posted. He's not a GFY hater, he's somebody who contributes to GFY in a positive way and he likes GFY enough to try to rattle some cages to get things fixed.
ANYBODY who claims that GFY is never slow for them is either an occasional poster or a fucking liar. GFY locks up consistently day in and day out. It should be fixed and Dean, as a well liked poster and fan of GFY, has been lobbying on these issues for awhile. Has anybody taken the time to reply to him about the issue is the past? If not, I can understand his viewpoint too.
This decision is not going to hurt Dean. It will probably piss him off but it won't hurt him....However....One less decent poster on a board filled with...well...Not so decent ones.....I just don't see how this ban does anything for the good of GFY.
I want to make it clear that I support Dean and hope he can come back to this board but also want to make it clear that I am a typical spineless LA friend who doesn't want to say anything which would jeopardize any future work that I would be considered for at Playboy.
You read all that in my post? Wow. I'd be glad to buy you a Comprehension for Dummies book.
Keep the book as you need more than I do I didn't get that
out of your post.....my reply to your post was restricted to the.....
because he can....
The rest of the mumbojumbo was directed at the general public.
I do agree that it was useless to ban Dean for the reasons that were given.
If they don't feel like sharing that then why not just say that instead of the
bullshit rule card.

yep. Best to keep your opinion to your self, when it may not be popular with the owner of the board.
criticism is often hard to take.
Nothing wrong with criticism .... every person has the righ to express themselves.
BUT .... is there a need for f_bombing Playboy because GFY is slow .... no need in my book.
I'm willing to bet that if Dean just vented his frustrations without attacking Playboy and Lensman in particular, then he'd still be around. He kinda went a little overboard with all the Playboy is Fucking us and Slaps in the faces. I think Dean should be allowed back to GFY. He is a good person to have here. Maybe a private apoligy to Playboy and Lens and both parties can be buddies again.
And just for the record, I'm not that pleased with the slowness of the site either. It sucks sometimes but what are you going to do, shit happens. This ain't the end of the world ya know.
Ps: Aaron, Ice says my prior post would have been much better if I'd left it at "Yo Lens, I'll clean your golf balls if you ban that supercilious fat ass AaronM too."; and for once the little twinker is right.

He's just pissed because he knows I'm better than he is.
No lie. Ice called me an ass kisser, and since 12 of BVF's models COMBINED couldnt put together enough lip surface to plant a solid pucker on your big ass I felt the need to just clarify.
A company that fought for free speech banning someone for free speech. What are the odds? It's funny how we forget our pasts, and how we got to where we are now.

Jim...I would love to stick around and banter back and forth with you all day...but...I have a date with the buffet up the street and an appointment with my barber after that. Then I have to go to my Jenny Craig meeting.
So, while I am gone, perhaps you could take a few minutes to regroup and think of something significant, clever, or insulting to say to me since your current line of thought is too weak to get under my skin.

You hit the nail on it's head.
I think nobody who contributes to this board as much as Dean should be banned for telling his opinion.
The board might be a privately owned democracy, but it should be handled like a democratic privacy .... or am I mixing something up? Karl Marx, Help Me!!!

That's the worst part. The board has so many sigwhores now that it's near impossible to find posts by people in the business. Banning them just makes noise levels rise.
Pretty sad I must say, I found Dean here, and this is the only place we would share his work at. I never took his work and posted them on other boards, I would keep them here to share with everyone I have known in the last decade.
Something to rethink, he is a all around good guy and doesn't mean any harm.
Maybe a simple email to him with a warning would have been better. He is a veteran in this industry just like a lot of us.
I can barely remember when GFY didn't take 10-20 seconds to load a page, and there is nothing wrong with pointing that out. A fuck you was going a little too far, but a ban seems way too far. A lot of people like having Dean here, and come on, everyone says stupid shit sometimes.
