But that really wasn't the point.

Well.. fuck off then. Because drama is exactly what you are creating.

I was offering you an idea to an alternative way of getting your voice heard, but if you just want to act stupid and keep harassing geoff, feel free. He should just delete your comments and leave his post any way he likes until you GROW THE FUCK UP.

Shit head.

So now Geoff has blocked me from pointing out how he has twisted my comment for his and Cordovan's ends.

Nice work Geoff, very telling.

You start this entire thread to drive traffic to and get attention for your site, but when you get caught misrepresenting and using the words of others you hide from it.

Very telling indeed.

No, it's not, because a reporter would either have the integrity to report accurately or have consequences for his dishonesty, and Geoff apparently has neither.

Hammertop's request to pull the comment entirely if a middle ground cannot be reached is perfectly reasonable. I respect Geoff's right to pull it if he finds it unacceptable, but not to edit it in a way that distorts the original intent.

Geoff, this is beneath you. Comments posted to your blog do not become your intellectual property. Take it down unless and until you two can work out a version that you both find acceptable.

The fact that you can dish it but can't take it then change words to seemingly back your case is pathetic. Sure it's your site, but if you want people to take you seriously you'll tell and show the true story and not an edited version because you didn't like it.

You're the epitome of what's wrong with our media these days. They twist and angle things to promote their agenda. You try depict yourself as honest and unbiased but are in reality anything but that.

At the least you are disingenuous, but mostly likely you are a liar.

Bah, fucksticks - that's quoted the wrong name, but the right text. Bizarre. It was, erm *scrolls up*, Thaz.

Not really, since Hammertop is not trying to find a middle ground... to quote him ALL or NOTHING. ( multiple time )

if at least he tried to find a middle ground... but he doesn't.

note : I'm not defending geoff, I'm just stating the obvious. I usually don't visit the site and most of the time the ad posts just rubs me the wrong way.

Why doesn't everyone just report him on the official forum.

I can see at least 3 guidelines he's violating by posting that.

It'd be interesting to see how Jerry doesn't do anything about it.

I know better than to try to change minds, but I do want to correct a handful of things.

Yes I have had a Vault tab open all day. I usually do now that I am working from home. Not when I was working in an office though!

There is this interesting idea out there that I am seeking to "boost my traffic" for some reason. I don't make money off of DDOgamer. It has no ads. It's just a fansite that I run because I can. I like to promote the game, I like it when people read the blog, and I make an effort to let people know about it, but again, it doesn't make me money. It costs me money.

And it is probably not money well spent.

No, I blocked you for spamming the site with the same 1200 words over and over and over even after I asked you to stop. Nicely. Several times.

RemRemi wrote on Jun 24^th, 2015 at 11:19am:


No, that did not happen. I removed some of his words, and clearly annotated where I did that, and included a (clearly annotated) summary of what I thought he was trying to say.

However, I probably am a little bitch.

NoGoodDoc wrote on Jun 24^th, 2015 at 11:31am:


No one is going to take me seriously no matter what I do. Nor should they. But again, his post was not "changed". It was "moderated", as fairly as I could (which you may disagree), and completely transparently (which you cannot disagree).

Nor did I do anything to the many angry posts Hammer added to the article, except to remove the 1200+ word original comment, which he spanned half a dozen additional times.

Meursault wrote on Jun 24^th, 2015 at 11:23am:


See above regarding intent. And I didn't really get a request to pull the comment, I received arrogant orders to include all of the original content including the personal attacks that I had removed.

But the rest of your point may have some validity, maybe? I think I am in the right here, but I don't believe I am unassailably so, rather instead, I am quite fallible. Perhaps this is yet another instance.

Would today be different if Hammer had said something like "Hey Geoff, I don't think you got the meaning of my comment right, can we hold off on your post?" Maybe.

But I dunno, I'd already done the whole graphic and everything, and besides we all agree that I am just a little bitch. And an asshat.

You guys really do need to add some ranks to your Insult skill. I miss Gawna.

I don't know what to say about this. Whatever else you can say about the guy, he clearly has a passion for the game. Nothing he said on my site should have anything to do with anything in-game.

Maybe there is more to the story?

I've stopped.  I'm sorry for any past transgressions.

kum-gulp wrote on Jun 24^th, 2015 at 11:33am:


Yeah, I guess I overestimate ppl.

Geoff's site is registered? as a fan site of ddo... so I guess that would affect what he writes, or allows on his site. But he already told Hammer several times he will not allow the original comment on the blog, yet Hammer went full retard and kept demanding all or nothing. Before blocking, Geoff asked Hammer to rewrite the comment himself, which he refused.

I honestly don't understand what Geoff's intentions with this blog post was. Maybe he thought he was being fair? A mistake on his part seeing as the drama it created. Or maybe he was just looking for more views on his blog? I donno.
