Well...

Billy PM'd someone he shouldn't have, which now led to this.

Some things change, some things stay the same.

Lesson Billy has hopefully learned: When doing something as PWNful as Terrence, its best not to get completely carried away to the point of forgetting who would turn him in for PMing as Terrence.

Yeah...

I mean hey - the character is freakin' hilarious as written. But in general, you can't really go up to a girl in real life or on here that you don't know and say that kind of stuff without expecting a hard slap across the face - which is essentially what Billy got, the online wrestling forum equivalent. ;)

look -- i knew terence wasn't for real...

(i actually thought it might be Chad messing w/ Gregg ;) )

...but i don't think he needed to be publicly outed, even given the circumstances. YES. that was an assfag-style move to PM Lindsay like that, but it could have probably been handled in private w/o completely removing the aura, majesty, and brilliance that WAS Mr.T.

and, No, Brunk.

I Ain't Da Tre. Nah'm'sayin'?

I, like mostly everyone else, absolutely LOVED Terence. I, like mostly everyone else thought it was a joke/work. I, like Paul, thought it was Chad - because, well... Paul's like, my homie n' sh*t, and we talk on AIM like everyday. Or, every other day. Or, when our schedules make sense. Or, ugh ... I'm losing focus here.

I stand by the fact that the PM shouldn't have been sent, because PMs are typically Out Of Character conversations between two handlers, but I understand where Billy came from, and what he tried to get out of it. Terence was in character at all times, because Terence didn't understand the difference between In Character and Out of Character, hence the: "I swear to God, the guy that owns this league had better make me win!" speeches. Which were absolutely brilliant, by the way. Now that I think back on it, I kinda wish this all ended another way, because I don't want the whole Terence thing to die, but sometimes we have to make better judgements who we make those comments/send those PMs to.

With Lindsay being a female, you'd almost expect her to take offense to some of those comments, as opposed to a guy's response, because guys typically laugh at comments and people like Terence. We find farting entertaining. I had a conversation with Lindsay and she didn't really understand why we encouraged Terence, and I guess I can't blame her, because she's not supposed to. And, if she's not in on the joke, it could be seen as harrasment, and we don't want anyone feeling uncomfortable on our boards.

I, like Gregg want Terence to stick around, because, like it was noted, he brought energy, and a reaction to these boards that we haven't seen in quite some time. But, I also understand that now that the secret is out, it wouldn't be the same.

But, still... a brother can wish and hope, can't he? :eek:

I'm not going to apologize for not sharing certain peoples' apparent infantile sense of humor. It was one thing to keep the posts confined to Gregg's "let's bullsh*t around here and have fun" fed and it's another thing entirely to bring it out of the forums and into a private message with someone who a) isn't in the fed, b) wasn't and didn't want to be in on the joke and c) didn't find the character particularly funny to begin with. And since people encouraged it, Billy decided to take it too far.

As soon as I found out who Terence really was, it all made perfect sense. After all, this was the guy who got banned once before for pretending to be and making fun of someone with a physical and mental disability. So I guess Billy hasn't changed too much since then. And GG, no offense, for you to write it off like "oh, that's just his sense of humor, that's how he is" is insipid. Sorry, I didn't ask for a sexually explicit private message in order to help THE LEGEND OF TERENCE "get over" with the forum marks.

I don't know whether to take Billy's apology as sincere or to take it as a professional sports "steroid apology." But at least he owned up to it and is trying to be conciliatory, which is more than I can say for other people who take "jokes" too far and then when they're asked to stop they throw a hissy fit instead.

I would appreciate it if this type of stuff would be handled over PM. It's bad enough that all this crap has already been said. If I could post all the problems I have with people it would be a ten page thread.

I know nothing of this handler's past but to air it out like dirty laundry is childish. Drop it.

Okay, this has gone far enough.

On the one hand, I thought Terence was hilarious. He was one of two things:

1) Gimmick account. Fun for all.

2) Someone who was really that stupid. Even more fun for all.

On general principle, I think he was relatively harmless. Not everyone's cup of humor, but who is?

In my opinion, after looking at all this stuff and having a few drinks, Billy, you can go about your business. All I'm going to ask is that you think twice about how you handle yourself in the future. Think of a good gimmick? Run with it. But even if you're just kidding, if I get one more complaint that you're harassing someone who isn't in on the joke, you're banned again. Consider this strike two.

Now, everyone, get back to your white trash street scum pseudo sport.

And listen to Gregg, and join his fed.

Sorry....I may regret this, but I'll say it anyway.

**** anyone who puts the "aura" of a fantasy wrestling character over treating people with basic respect.

Ironically - Billy has been incredibly apologetic both publically and privately.

It's some of the rest of you that have lost a bit of respect from me.
