As you said, I was angry, so I probably said things that I shouldn't have. The BBS is a good league. I've seen nothing to suggest it's as good as the NBN, but I'll take your word for it and agree that maybe it's down to an individual's preference. Back on topic, Outlawz would never get a team in the NBN, because of his post a few pages back. I think it's unrealistic that you suggest you'd let a GM back into your league if he said similar things to you. I have a bit more pride than that. We work our asses off to run sim leagues for people to enjoy, so, when one of them turns around and tries to make you look bad, why on Earth would you let them back into your league? I pride myself in putting my ego aside. I know you wouldve been an asset to the league if you wouldve fit in better. And I still think you could be an asset to this league if you got along with some GMs better. Maybe it wasnt realistic to have you co exist with some of the BBS Gms, but Im glad I tried, and I would try again if you were interested 3-6 months down the line. Thank you. I'm glad I tried too, because I'd heard good things about this league. Part of why I left was due to my complete lack of interest in the players in this league - this is nothing against you (or indeed against any of the GMs), but I found the whole retro concept a bit pointless unless you're going to go far back like in the 1982 league. But that's just me. I know I could have bit my tongue and succeeded in this league. I could have ignored people like Martinez and eventually they would have shut up. Unfortunately, I would not have enjoyed that one bit. As I've mentioned many times in this thread, I'm in sim leagues for fun - nothing else. Biting my tongue for a few seasons would not have been fun. Since leaving the BBS, I've devoted a lot more time to the NBN, writing articles such as this: nbn2005.proboards38.com/index.cgi?board=Articles&action=display&thread=1202166869&page=1nbn2005.proboards38.com/index.cgi?board=Articles&action=display&thread=1202224918&page=1For me, that's what sim leagues are all about. It probably happened in the BBS once upon a time, but the first few years in a "retro" league are just plain boring. I couldn't be bothered to hang about and wait for things to pick up. Activity was pretty poor in the BBS (until a few fireworks were lit around the time I quit). Basically, there were numerous reasons why I left, but ultimately, I can't see the BBS ever interesting me even a quarter as much as the NBN.

We work our asses off to run sim leagues for people to enjoy, so, when one of them turns around and tries to make you look bad, why on Earth would you let them back into your league? It's not unrealistic, because it has happened before. What offended you was that Outlawz accused you of cheating, thus tainting your success in NBN. When I quit, I was extremely vocal about thinking it was shady that Spence had Wade and Arenas come out in the same year, and then he got one of them (and won a championship, if I remember right). I referenced a bunch of things that at the time bothered me quite a bit (in terms of him giving himself an unfair advantage, in my eyes). I went out fighting, probably said things that I didn't necessarily believe one hundred percent because I was angry, and we all got over it in August when I re-joined. What I did was a lot worse than what Outlawz did. I had been in BBS for four years when I quit last March, and had many friends (in real life and online) who were in the league. Tons of them wanted me back as soon as I quit, and even though I was so disrespectful to Spence, he offered me my team back the next day. That is what separates him from you.

I even wrote a detailed article comparing him to Hitler and we got over that. Haha BBS has went through some pretty crazy things over the years.

You're right, it's quite simple, I'm shocked I couldn't comprehend it earlier. It's just quite simple. Really.
Everything you've said today regarding Spence has been completely off, and you were proved wrong time and time again. You try and argue on subjects you don't completely know about (making generalizations about Spence, for example), and then when it gets to a point where you simply can't anymore, you throw out a one or two word sentence as a response. You've done it numerous times this thread. You're probably going to do it in response to this post as well.

I even wrote a detailed article comparing him to Hitler and we got over that. Haha BBS has went through some pretty crazy things over the years. Im not sure what you said when you quit, BUT if a GM accuses a simmer of cheating then I am in favor of that GM never being allowed back in the league. Fags that accuse people of cheating piss me off more than anything on earth. Its a damn sim league. If you cheat you should kill yourself and the same goes for the people who accuse others of cheating. I have never even had the thought that Will cheated in NBN or Spencer in BBS or Ducky in UOSL or anything. Anyone that ever accuses one of those three of cheating is a complete jackass. Will could have left the league in a better way. Others could have handled this far better as well. Most people in this thread could have done something differently than what they did. Oh well its in the past now. Spencer would let Will back in IF Will wanted back in. Will doesnt want back in at this time at least. There is NOTHING to argue about anymore. Lets move on and enjoy the sim and quit arguing/fighting like immature teenage girls.

Haven't read everything yet since im in schhol but i wanted it to be known i would join nbn again so everyone can see what Will is really about and that's being a FAG. Dont think Will has cheated but i think he's taken advantage of his inside info. I stand by what i said. I dont need to say much else. I haven't been in nbn for a while so if will doesn't want me there im perfectly content with just bbs. Not a big deal.
Im not posting anymore on the subject. I said what i needed to say.
