Hi, I'm newoldmate / s13n1 and would like to shed some light on this.

My comments were in regard to someone who posted a thread titled "Trespasser sounds" and then the text within the thread itself was simply "who has them".

Asking for sounds from a commercial game is one thing, but in such an ungrateful self entitled way is just not something i wont put up with. My comments were well within my rights, and in my eyes, I never stepped over the line. Accusing me of flamming and insulting someone is an over reaction and distorts the truth.

If any of the JPL staff happened to actually read the big rant thier forum owner posted about forum etiquette (and much, much more), they would know that the thread went agianst a alot of what he outlined.

My response to the warning i was sent by the forum moderator was basically shock that my disapproval of such behavior was met with a warning for being rude.

Its all available for reading on the TesCom forums, where i felt the need to let it be seen, as it was pretty ridiculous and a transcript of the whole mess was needed for occasions like this.

I was banned from JPL and i'm pretty sure my ban is still in place along with most of the TresCom staff. Why this has happened i'll never know or understand.

JPL is a great source for JP information, I've got nothing against the site or staff, but i think they handled the whole situation poorly to say the least.

The ongoing feud between the two sites is something else i fail to understand or wish to be part of (but of course this comment will be viewed as such). Its pretty obvious though that when one side fails to let things go and continues to publicly name and shame certain individuals, then what hope is there of a peaceful resolution? Its also incredibly immature and highlights the inability of certain individuals to be in charge of moderating a forum.

Do i even need to raise the topic of ridiculing someone for thier sexual orientation?

JP is a great franchise and both sites are great resorces for anyone whos a fan of the books, films and games. Let the past go and enjoy it.
