>> TooConservative-- Before you just shut it down, have you done any tally of results? Just eyeballing it, it looks like tpaine is probably above 60%.

>> Sneakypete---- Seems to ME that if TPaine is serious he would quit being a wuss and stand up like a man and say he will accept a 51 percent vote tally by regular posters as a victory and step up to the plate.

----It isn't me that would have to be a man and take all the bullshit... It would be the moderator. And my choice for mod would have been TooConservative, or Sneakypete, or even better, both of you.

----Tell you what, if you two take over mod/tech functions, I'd be willing to put up the money for the first year as the 'owner', and take responsibly for any legal problems we might encounter.

>> After all,he has never pretended to be anything other than a Libertarian with a "Big L",and since when have Bil L Libertarians ever demanded a 75 percent vote for anything?

-----I've never belonged to the big 'L' party. I consider myself a constitutional libertarian, who votes (mostly) republican.

>> In MY mind,if he doesn't man up and and accept ownership if he gets the majority of the votes,he was never serious about it to start with.

---I'll call your bluff. Put up (joining me, as above) or shut up about man-ing up.

>> I personally hope this isn't the case because I think all political discussion boards need Big L Libertarian owners/moderators. Anyone else and they just turn into partisan party arms preaching the party line with no dissent allowed. Without dissent there is no discussion.

---Here's your chance to put your man-ing up with your mouth. How bout it?

tpaine, why do you want ownership of LP? Why not start your own site?

I am new to this forum. Do you find something lacking here that compels you to have your own site?

I really do NOT want to run (moderate) a web site. --- Try reading my post again. Pete is rubbing in my 'lack' of manliness, and I'm calling his bluff.

If Pete and TC would be mod/tech's, I would do the owner bit, for a year, just for laughs.. So in that sense, this is serious. --- But don't hold your breath waiting for it to happen.

Little sensitive over that,bubba?

Even though I voted for you as the new owner,I came to believe you were just playing games about it or you would have accepted majority vote.

The kicker was after somebody mentioned the 100 dollar donation to LP bet that you made and never paid off.

Over what, bubba, you saying 'man up'? Big hat, no cattle. Man up and tell us what you think of my idea about LP.

WE, --- meaning you, TC, and I still could 'accept', and I'd bet the sysadmin over there would turn the site over to us.

That 'somebody' was SOD... I never made such an unconditional bet. The conditions were never fulfilled, and I never made a donation. -- And I'm not proud of that fact, the way things turned out.

You sure as sensitive about that term. Why? Goldi ran that same web site for years. How "manly" was SHE?

Women runs tens of thousands of web sites.

I may be wrong,but I think your idea was to pose and cause conflict. Based mainly on the fact that you never paid up on the bet you lost. If you do that once,you will do it often.

WE, --- meaning you, TC, and I still could 'accept', and I'd bet the sysadmin over there would turn the site over to us.

Not anymore. It's over.

Besides,with my temper who would seriously consider me as a mod?

Besides,as a moderator I really wouldn't be able to join in on any discussions. Moderators have to/should stay personally aloof from all the dust being raised. How else can they remain impartial and fair? Even if they were,there would be a segment that would never believe I didn't moderate in order to enforce my personal POV instead of trying to lower the noise ratio.

I never made such an unconditional bet.

Ahhh,the devil is in the details! I freely admit I only paid casual interest in the events leading up to that bet and the precise details that defined it,but I do remember to the casual viewer (me) it sure as hell looked like you lost and refused to pay up.

And I'm not proud of that fact, the way things turned out.

Nor should you be,but I do give you credit for admitting you didn't pay up.

And dancing around and complaining about "fine details" does you no credit. You lost and refused to pay off a measly 100 dollar donation to LP bet. Your own sense of pride and self-respect should have forced you to pay up to avoid questions being asked,and the fact that you didn't pay up does not speak well for your character. If you can't be trusted to pay off a lousy 100 bet,how can you be trusted to do anything else you say you will do?

Weird reply Pete. I'm not sensitive about any term, nor are you. The cadre in jump school made sure of that, correct?

You're wrong, bubba.

Thanks for manning up as a casual viewer. Your opinion is filed. And I'm not proud of the fact that I never gave her a donation, -- the way things turned out, but I never owed her one.

Big of you bubba. Thanks.

Pete, I'll dance with you all you want. I don't quite know what you hope to accomplish by ragging on me, but feel free.

That was the gatlin groups version of what happened. It is bullshit.

You're going beyond the line with your suppositions, and I don't have a clue why you're doing it. -- Something else bothering you, bubba?

Yes,numbnuts. You trying to pass yourself off as a victim.

You made the bet,you lost the bet,and now you are trying to pass yourself off as a "victim of a technicality. It remind me of Bubba Bill defending his perjury by claiming "It all depends on what the definition of "is",is".

I expected better of you.

NO, --- that was the gatlin groups version of what happened. It is bullshit, and for some odd reason you've swallowed it.

More unsupported bullshit from a strangely disturbed fella. I expected better from you.

It appears we're both disappointed about each other's character. --- BFD. -- I'll learn to live with your odd opinion of mine. I suggest you do the same.

sneakypete do you go to forums just to fight or to post about political/news issues?
