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.
Pretty clear when you look how he posted the link on the mobos, then here, after he worked up his little graphic that he mentions later here that is was premeditated to get traffic, and curry favor with Turbine.
While he was obviously pissed Hammer didn't go anywhere near retard, he just kept dogging Geof until his only option was to block him, I watched real time over lunch and Geoff not only deleted the original comment numerous times, he also killed the more eloquent and well argued points Hammer made, And Hammer actually went out of his way to ask Geoff to pull the changed version twice when demanding didn't work, less than half of what was posted was saved over here it was so back and forth and Geoff was obviously parked on the delete button.
I can say with certainty the you Thaz would have lost your shit if Geoff had pulled that with a post you made there, if anything Hammers mistake was pointing out to Geoff that he know he wouldn't pull it because of traffic/money, geoff locked it down then.
I would guess that Geoff didn't really understand what kind of self-righteous annoying little terrier he was fucking with at first, and he blew it from there. Bad target choice. But it's not like Geoff is very clever, he should have looked at hammers posts first.
The ban move? what a cunt.
