So much winning.

At their level, their retirements would be comfortable....
Also cancel their security clearances and prohibit their participation in lobbying or employment by the military industrial-surveillance complex.
Heed Eisenhower's warning!

Col. MacGregor, Admiral Rogers, General Flynn, General Guy Swan, General Fred Franks...
My core group....warfighters
MacGregor is a clown and has been wrong every step of the Ukraine war. He was a good war fighter, but he doesn't know shit about anything outside commanding some tanks.
 
So would you care to answer the question please? The public at large deserve an answer as this may have 1st amendment implications. If you have nothing to hide, It is an easy answer to give. Everyone appreciates a person, large enough to answer a simple question, even if it feels like negativity towards the respondent.
No one here, or anywhere is without shame. NO ONE! The truth sets you free, much more than the questioner. Answer and you gain respect. We all want that.
I don't owe you anything, Joe, but since you seem to care so much, I'll give it to you. This is an internet forum. It's not important enough to be worth the stress it gave me. So I'm choosing to accept less stress. I can't do that as a mod. So I revived my old pre-mod account, and I'm using that now. I can't believe I remembered the password, to be honest.

You'll see I responded to you above from the newer account that is tagged as "moderator." That shows you I had nothing removed from me. If you see Thomas Hobbes, I'm a regular guy. If you see Cardinal Fisher, I'm a weakling who got sucked back in and started exercising mod powers again. I'm hoping I'll be strong enough you'll only see Hobbes.

I think you -- and your source -- are full of shit. I also am pretty damn sure I know why someone might have jumped to that conclusion, which is evidence only that they're not too bright.
HEY, there is no crying is baseball !!!
Are you the press sec for Goat? People want to hear from the goat himself. Goat, Have you or any of your subjects, directly or indirectly, had discussions or communications with the admin about your performance and thus retention of having mod status? This seems like a simple question.

You know per usual I’m always just fcking around with that reaction score but whatever they use to calculate it must have changed somewhere along the way. The really old unused accts are all like that

When they switched platforms, they carried over our post count. Almost all of my posts came pre-2010, and there were no reactions possible. That's why the oldtimers have such bad scores.

Hell, most of the posts I did on this account were probably pre-2005. Used to be part of the hard-partying late night OTF crew that doesn't exist anymore, because we all got old and ended up with bedtimes.
 
Joe, you can get a bit hyperbolic at times.
I pitied the ones we killed. They too were young, frightened and a long way from home.
Death is seldom as portrayed on tv or the big screen. Mostly, they (and we) didn't die immediately...even when horribly wounded...watching it was saddening, and never leaves ones memory....
We were disciplined and never, never mutilated the dead, nor abused prisoners.
And it was all for nothing.
Nothing, Joe.....

Just like this Ukraine fiasco...
Hyperbolic is my own coping mechanism. I've not been in a foreign war space, and what I've experienced pails in comparison, but it still leaves a mark and I have decades old mechanisms to fall back on. That isn't meant to degrade what you all experienced, more so means I kind of understand... KIND OF understand, since I wasn't alongside of you all.
Gallows Humor.

Lets start with, I agree you don't owe me shit !!!
The rest of your post, just might be the most strong, honest, "normal" (wtf ever that is) that I've seen you post. Welcome back from the dark side sir !

As far as my whiny ass BS. Have you ever noticed that I will go after folks like You and the Skipper (hahah Aloha...), but pass over those "others" that are obviously weak? There's a level of respect I have for some, whether we agree or not. Many don't understand, but scrapping is only acceptable, with people that I have a level of respect for.
While we (I) are at it. I had some out of body experience a month or so ago. Mostly on Aloha, but I think you were caught up some in it. I really still don't know where that came from. I mostly like to pick scabs and laugh, but that episode was out of line.

Now that you have stepped back, I fully expect you bring some good old fashion info and sharing, unburdened from what was, concentrating on what may be. I know I will.

@everyoneelse
I felt, as a good reporter, striving always forward to defend the truth, I have delivered for my subscribers. It's ok, please don't flood my mailbox again though. I have a 72 yr old postal worker grandma on my route, please use my venmo instead (she'll still get paid, bless her heart).

Isn’t that the account where you had some Cub bullshit in the signature? What happened to that?
