It was about what happened with that other place.
sigh... good god this is like Aliens 3 or something. "This is Rumor Control. Here are the facts" Fine you want more of the story here ya go.. As I have said before I'm one of the few on the LANstaff that have never taken or worried about shit from Kilgore.
Ya guys managed to spam up and screw up the main post about this.. sigh..
too many you who have ZERO idea as to what happened or the back ground of LANtrocity and who can't even name all the LANstaff members, never mind know anything about the problems etc are throwing around terms like "disaster" and so on.. I'm getting tired of it!! Look if you don't know what is going on then don't sit here painting a picture that some how we, the LANstaff messed up some how.
Bottom line is that as a group the LANstaff started to have some issue with Kilgore or more to the point Kilgore started to think up issues to have with people base on whatever. I say "whatever" being facts are not the same as stuff you think are facts but are based on your opinions. This is nothing new, Kilgore has being "on the look out" to find issues for 3+ years now after a few really bad biz deals. Again, those had nothing to do with the LANtro LAN's themselves, all spin offs.. For example, lets say some sort of game application or a gamecenter or whatever.. NOT the LANtrocity LAN events, the LANstaff kept those rolling 100% by way of pure free volunteer work..
sooooooooooo this all comes to a point over the San Fran LAN's.. We lose one of the newer LANstaff member we really like (Fangel) due to Kilgore's accusations on some issues that many of us felt were groundless. The issues were ones that had NOTHING do with the LAN's now, more past biz dealing of Kilgore's and some court case he has one the way. Along the lines of you know blah blah's father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate so I have to keep an eye on you!! So Fangel more or less quits..
This starts an outcry in are staff area of the board that it was BS for Kilgore to question Greg about this and that and his motives and so on. Then Kilgore walks into the bowling center in Folsom. The guys who were there claim they were just hanging out as friends, Kilgore feels they were "planning something". Zak crys BS and Kigore shoves him.. Zak goes to the board, tell Kilgore to F--- off and quits. Bunny slayer and Fish and a few others see that and quit also as this is the last straw in a long line of issues. Kilgore gets locked out of the board and web site as more or less punishment.. He pulls rank, calls the data center and "takes his ball and goes home"... Locking everyone out and taking down the site..
so there ya go... now there is a TON of background and so that I can't go into on a message board but if you wonder about what happened that is more or less the last 4 days in a nutshell.. I'm still working on damage control being I'm one of the few who still talks to everyone from Kilgore to the so called "one's planning stuff" :rolleyes: x100. Not sure if we are going to have the LAN on the 11th or not.. I want to say yes but unless I can get a hold of the other LANstaff members I'm still not 100% sure what the deal is..
ya want more Kilgore stories talk to Mykul and Area 51 and so on.. they have had some issues in the past too that I also know the details of.. but it's not my place to cover them here.
as always... new home for me here but nothing about DeadLamb being above the law has changed.. :) I don't like to clear the air in public but there are just too many rumors about this and that going around..
