Ted's "apology" 8-5-2003

[thomas7g]

Just making a record of this since Gorospe took this off his own forums.

I also heard he reduced posting privileges so members can only reply. They can't start thread. Don't know if that is true.

This is the Battlestar of the Damned
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We the admnistrators of this forum apologize for our misdeeds that took place a few months ago. We are guilty of cloning and personal attacks on established Galactica online community members. We feel deep remorse for these activities and have ceased these activities for the past three months. Although we did expose the true lack of insider information among established members and the continued false reporting the on the production, our methods were uncalled for. For those who participate here, you are participating in forum ran by crew of the battlestar of the damned. We are outcasts from the Galactica community and a renegade amongst the established Galactica websites. Once again, we apologize and we are remorseful.

I weighed whether or not to repost this here since the original was deleted and I don't think talking about this in public helps the forums. I worry that focusiing on what this guy makes us bitter.

But it's important. We were royally screwed by a few people who decided to shut out the opinions of of an entire fanbase by creating a ton of fake people and having them all post and drown out every positive post about our beloved show while also flooding out every negative comment about the miniseries.

We don't like Jihads.

And in the end there are ramifiications for your actions.

But I am locking this closed cause well... this guy was an arse in our PAST. We must be vigiliant. But there are more important, and funner topics. We also don't want our lives to be stuck orbiting this blackhole of "Milton's"
