Recommended Posts

[quote name='Bengals1181' post='624458' date='Jan 18 2008, 03:27 PM']I don't know the whole details, but he basically left to start his own site and told a bunch of people off on the way out.

Something else about stealing mods too, but I don't know much about that.



[color="#FF0000"]Some think he's back under the screenname "The ghost of chucky B."[/color][/quote]


That isnt him, he wolnt post here anymore he has his own board and ill leave it at that.

here was his final post

[quote]sneaky BIDS FAREWELL
I started to really get nasty about this and have a "nigga moment" but nah, I ain't
gonna go out like that, BUT......................................................................

For those who haven't noticed (or hadn't got my PM ) I started a site about 2 or
3 weeks ago. It's basically just like this one but its ran by black people and Colt-45 and
Afro-Sheen will soon be sponsors over there.

Anyway, it has been brought to my attention that the powers that be here, is not happy
about it. You see, I did the horrible thing of telling all the people I have grown fond of
about my site, via PM.

Obviously the powers that be here didn't appreciate that. They also do not appreciate
the roles or former roles that some members here, had over at my site.

I had no idea how serious and dirty the free internet fan message board business was.



I cant believe how ridiculous this is. I cant believe how the powers that be here, could
be so insecure and immature to give anyone shit about it.

This website has 4,271 members. Mine has 59.

The most users ever online here is 724. At mine, 24...and half of them were Google-bots or Yahoo spiders.

But yet, there some people here that has a problem with it.

Anyway, I just want to apologize if I have caused anyone here any grief for visiting my site. And at the same
time, I want to ask all the people who are giving members here shit about visiting my site to stop.


Blame me, leave them alone. It was me who PM'ed them and it was me who asked them to come
to my site. So, banish me, suspend me or do what you want with my profile, it does not matter.

I don't feel its best that I post or log on here anymore. With that said, I want to thank Go
for creating this site and having me on board for over 2 years. I enjoyed it and I am glad
I was able to meet a lot of really cool members here.

Take care everyone .......and WHO DEY.

P.S.

If anybody does not want to come to my site because they fear they will get shit here, I understand.[/quote]

smoov was welcomed back here, he seemingly chose a power hungry black man instead, no worries either way. i'll always remember smoov winning the contest we had and getting a nate webster jersey and ruining websters career via the jinx. :D

the situation is silly, and it was just put to rest as it wasnt worth ANY form of hassle over.

essentially he plotted some magical takeover of the bengals fan cyberweb space as appearently im a power crazed psycho. he had 4-5 members in the lopp from the get go, bought a domain name, installed a cheapy forum with a generic pre-made skin, added a tacky logo and started recruiting. he basically seemed to have started at the highest post count and skipped people who hated him, asking all to join but "keep it on the down low" and promised them all to be modorators, which most are still and some are no longer there. eventually he realized one of the people he was inviting was going to nark about his "keep it on the down low" site and "plan" and sent me a pm... which was pretty cheesy and 2nd grade to begin with.. he sent me one that said "hey you gota a minute" as if we were on a phone call or in person.. and i replied "sup?" and he went into some drawn out pm about how he always had a dream of running a bengals website too, and he wasnt trying to steal members away and this or that.. and said he was gonna PM a few of his friends from here, which i thought was funny as more than 5 people had already reported his PM's to me, even funnier they are all mods over there still. so i went along gave him the goodluck do whatever, promote in the tailgate forum, announce the site, as others have here before, which is what the tailgate section is for. we are all fans, i can look beyond a few pm's ahead of asking me, no biggie.

but the forum software has spam guards in place and bots are pointed out for spamming posts and PM's, well i got an alert from the spam guardian thing on the site about PM's from his username, sending dozens per days several days in a row, and it seemed he got a few others to join the fun as well. then a few members forwarded me the PM's he sent them on HIS site talking about how much of a egotistical dictator i am and how he knows people would rather go to his site than mine cause im such a douchebag and calling other mods here names, etc.

so i figured that was enough 3rd grade BS on the internet for me to bother with. so i just blocked him from coming here and went about my business.

as all of you know and saw recently, we have a great relationship with other bengals sites here, bengalsjunglecom cincybengals.com, bengals.com (kinda) and others post and link here often and its all good, offering a different atmosphere to fans is great, not everyone fits in here or at bengals.com or huddles or bengalsjungle.com, etc. MBS even. so why bother competing? im all about spreading the fanbase of bengals sites.

furthermore, he later made posts on his site putting me down further, that he wont have to ask for money to support his site, he is financially stable, etc. which is funny., as his hosting is $6/month yea, i can afford $6/month too. not to mention he doesnt have season tickets or two kids. so on top of the $2,-3,000 i spend on bengals tickets and travel, i spend another $200-300 a month here on the server, software, etc. so i found the $80/yr investment he made compared to the $5,000/yr one done here extremely comical. i think he later removed some of those comments.

anyway. im 26 and its the internet, its not worth my time to police people acting like 5th graders, the language and content here is pretty damn liberal, and aside from being a dick now and then i dont think of myself as some overpowering dictator.

i found it funny that someone with a half page signature with their screen name in huge letters was calling me egotistical.

anywho. thats that.

The real poop is that GoBengals is a very gay man that was getting a severe case of jungle fever, and when he approached Sneaky about a rendezvous, Sneaky told Go "No thanks", and like any spurned would-be lover, Go banned him in a jealous rage over Sneaky's apparent tryst with Bengal Smoove.
So, having nowhere else to go, the poor downtrodden Sneaky had little choice but to start his own Bengals website, which Go instructs us mods to sabotage with cyber attacks every day.
At least that's how it read on BengalsWorld.

I just want to add a couple of things.

His farewell post was obviously made before he was banned, so the ban really had no effect on anything. He had already said he wasn't going to post or even log in here anymore.

Most of what he said in that post wasn't accurate. It might have been how he saw it, but it wasn't accurate. As far as I know, no one here was given any kind of shit whatsoever for joining his site. If someone was, I'm sure they'll speak up here. Hell, I joined his site.

I've always liked O N Y X. Still do. Maybe time will heal any wounds that people feel over whatever happened.



Anyway, I've always had 2 or 3 regular Bengal boards that I visit. Even though this is home for me, different boards offer different things. You guys who post a lot on his board aren't now "the enemy". I don't know if Go and the other mods agree with me, but my guess is that they all do. I don't care if you post on his site. Just hope you keep posting here too.

I have no dog in this fight... i didn't join that site (hadn't noticed the fairwell post when it happened and apparently i fall in the "hate sneaky" catagory, although that isn't true at all) but that is b/c why would i want to leave this one? I don't understand sneaky's point of view, but whatever... to each his own... i do miss those guys b/c they could spark up the boards...

i looked over their site, and again i have to ask myself... why the hell would they want to alienate themselves like that?

For me, i'm not like backer on that note... i don't go to any other bengal boards but here... they almost always annoy me for some reason...

thanks for clearing up the situation for us go... get back to dictating :)

btw... i looked over the site for about 5 minutes and it seems to be moderated more aggresively over there, than here...

however you've managed to not fuck up the mod rules is sweet man...

Wasn't this the same guy that had to steal his internet access from his neighbor?

I dont think it has to be told that I concider him a friend, and a kindrid spirit of sorts in that we both have a similar sence of humor, and probabally was closer to him than anyone else here, that said I have hung out with Go on multipule occasions and have a yearly tradtion of going to the baltimore game so I concider him a friend also. So therefore I post on both boards. However without getting into it and trying as best I can to stay nutral in the whole situation not everything said in this thread is the complete truth either. Some misunderstandings happened, some things said here either are intentionaly untruthfull or they dont realize what they said just isnt the case and didnt realize what was said isnt exactly how it went and Im purposly being vauge because I was done with the situation and am done with it, and will leave it with that.

But im closing the thread as Im not going to allow it to turn into a bash onyx thread either.

certainly, everyone here is pretty sensible when it comes to these things... the escalation level was a bit ridiculous.

ive never tried to take members from other sites, original we recruited based on the over censorship of other sites, and it worked, but hell this site came about as an accident, i just wanted a photo gallary of pics i took, and was happy posting at JT's site back in the day. i decided to add a forum to post trip stories and stuff, and the same week JT started getting spammed with porn and stuff, same thing happened at bengals.com if i remember. so i had posted the link here and got BJ and a few others to try and round up the main troops once JT shut down,. and it just grew from there.... most people post on other boards too, i get many pm's with links to us here from other sites. its funny. we were the big mean black sheep board, parents saying we were too vulgar, which is why we are 18+ only now.. :ninja:
