After the 'incident' around Xmas time I've found it easy to just tune out to Stig's sarcasm, and not react. Never the less I liked the history lesson, thought the interviews were quite fun, even though I probably wasnt around when they were being done, would have been rather cool to have one of me up...but I'm sure you'll disagree

So I wont jump on the bandwagon and pounce all over Stig's twattish-ness, I know hes just being himself

Inno posts on 24th Feb, as do I.

It's not until March 1st that MK replies and Stig's remark gets blown out of proportion and the thread takes off.


Would a Smash History Zone really be worth the effort?


Evidently I would like it but the rest of the posters probably wouldn't care and would be more interested in commenting on the Stig's posts.

Based on the above logic I therefore suggest a Stig Zone instead.

Is the Smashlife.com/forums domain even accessable for Groovy? Just say he wants to get rid of those hackers (or so it was said) he could bring back the old site?

Not that I want to kill Garibaldi's hopes of being The Ultimate Admin!

The plan wasn't for a history fourm, it was for a thread in the announcements forum with just one post from Inno detailing the history of Smash Wrestling from 2000 until present day. Thought it would be a good way to let potential new members know what Smash was/is about.

And I've put an end to that...how?

Don't think Inno was too happy with the way this thread was recieved, and uderstandably so IMO.

Once again, how is that my fault?

Because you felt the need to point out that not much effort was required on Inno's part. That may be true but it's the thought that counts not how much effot it takes.

Sorry, I'll be sure to praise him for struggling through the arduous task of opening a browser and entering the URL to Smash (maybe he has it bookmarked, who knows?) every time he makes a post in future.

Ahh!!

THAT'S why I stopped going on Smash! It was full of absolute twats! Funny how little things like that slip your mind...

Strange isn't it? A guy comes on and does something off his own back for no personal gain, gets absolutely slaughtered, defends himself, gets slaughtered again and then rather than just saying oh well sorry if I offended you and leaving it that you keep picking over the never healing scab.

I fail to see how Inno was slaughtered. Anyone who has posted on the old forum knows how much effort and personal time he put into Smash and he is respected for it. All I see is mass hysteria (again) to an off the cuff remark.

If the Stig made the same remark about one of DX's post there wouldnt be such a fuss made but thats ok because he hasnt went on one of the numerous nights out, not anyone else's fault I know but just because one of your drinking mates didnt get a universal pat on the back for his post you think you should label everyone a twat?

I would also like to take this opportunity to apologise to someone, my earlier comment was also used to try and score points of someones back and for that im truly sorry...........Terry Silver will you forgive me? You dont remind me of Pat Butcher at all

Where did I slaughter him in my initial post? I think you'll find I was merely informing MK that the effort wasn't as much as he thought it was. Inno then completely overreacted, and now yourself and Sweatsock are blowing it completely out of proportion. Why should I apologise? It's hardly my fault Inno can't take what is essentially mild criticism at best.

And get over yourself, you're hardly the epitome of posting greatness.

Cool

This is such a rubbish arguement compared to what used to go on in the asylum, it's a step in the right direction though, well done to all involved! It's almost as if garibaldi engineered this to get the ratings up

Inno wasn't slaughtered... He went out of his way to make me feel terrible... and then got called on it.

That seemed to be the hysteria, attacking my posts back then, just the drinking boys killing the others...

Agreed, only Hector, MK and myself have commended Inno on his post and find. The rest of you have commented on The Stig or Inno.

To be fair your comment was very smart arsed though. I just used you as you were the first poster that came to mind I could just have easily used JK, ShowStealer or any other poster who isnt a member of the various places gets smashed tours. If you were so hurt why didnt you call him on it yourself?

Im not even gonna touch your "drinking boys" comment

After you and MK praised the thread, and I responded to MK, the next two responses were a quip by MK and Inno crying. He only has himself to blame.

Wow, after a couple of posts down there's so much "Couldn't-give-a-fuck" in this thread my brain melted.

I guess that's one less thread for you to read then, and one less thread where I'm subjected to your posts. Everyone's a winner.

I'm convinced DX-Supercunt and Stig are the same person...

Oh, sorry. Fucking twat, bullshit, this thread sucks, what did I do wrong?, etc. etc.

We on the same page now?

YouwhaHUH?

I've been on rarely of late due to accreditations at work to actually enable to have money to spend after payday taking up so much time. First I've seen of this. (see, there was logic behind the mods...)

To the best of my knowledge the majority of content from smashlife is no longer accessible - the forum content may even have been deleted by the ISP/forum provider due to inactivity. Pretty sure the URL isn't even trying to link these days. It's just down to what Inno and Groovy have archived.

So whilst, yes, it bmay not have needed hunting a server's redundant or archived files to locate the necessary pages, there's still the act of locating the relevant files (I've got a hard-drive full of back-up stuff from 18 months ago and I no longer have any real idea what's on there or where it's filed) and having the courtesy to make them available for anyone who wishes to know.

I'd like to say thanks to Inno for looking to make stuff we thought was lost available for everyone. It is a shame that it has blown into this - I honestly don't think there was any malice in Stig's original comment (maybe a winking smilie would have emphasised the humour and avoided all this so we could al go about our business posting elsewhere on the forum?). That doesn't even seem to have been where the real problem started though, it's just escalated as a mix of that and the real kindling...

To be honest DX, back in the day you (and the other DX kids) did earn quite a reputation for twattish behaviour. Since we restarted, though, there's been a definite improvement. Consider that Ino isn't a regular poster - it's therefore possible that he hasn't been aware of the imrovement. Plus it's the asylum, as Stigie says, so he's entitled to say what he wants, as is everyone else.

If we can agree to disagree here, I'd like to stress I think it's an excellent idea. Include the Hall of Fame to boot - quite a few are still about I think, and would help show how long we have been going. Hopefully, Inno can be persuaded to go ahead with it.

In the end, let's chill...
