My last visit there was several weeks back. I saw nothing that would have gotten the board shut down.

I last checked G-chat this morning and there were a couple posts in the complaints thread demanding that personal info about "J.B". be removed from a thread


I've been checking in on that place everyday...pretty much a cemetery since the RO and PPSM threads dried up

That's most likely the cause then. He's posted here a couple times recently, very covertly until this morning when he responded to a comment I made many days ago where his name was not even mentioned. He had to look hard to find it too.

PPSM has a few times, very innocuously. If Roger has he's done it on a proxy and not made himself obvious.

I just checked and I got this message:

Quote:
 
Board Closed
This board has been closed for Terms of Service violations.
Repetitive Privacy Violations


So that sounds like PPSM. But were there any new threads about him? I know there was a MPC impersonator saying she fell off the wagon. I could have been the real MPC who shut it down. She's complained in the past.

The green cheeries post was funny.

But I also thought the fake MPC was at the top of her game in responding that an elderly auntie had told her if there is juice, the fruit isn't too green to eat.

I may be wrong, but when I checked it after seeing this thread last night I don't believe the phrase "repetitive privacy violations" was there. Sounds like ZB must have gotten many emails asking why it was shut down.

No offense to the board intended, but I can't imagine they got too many inquiries, as there appeared to only be two or three people who even cared enough to post.

The GChat webmaster previously posted here. Maybe he'll show up and advise what happened. They would never have shut the board down without repeated warnings to him by email.

Maybe he, too, had lost interest and didn't even bother to look at, much less respond, to any warnings.

I couldn't help but notice that MPC has been posting this morning on several threads, but has assiduously avoided this thread.

Given her history of making complaints when things on that board were not to her liking . . . and the presence of recent threads from a troll purporting to be her . . . it reinforces my suspicion that it may have been she who got the board shut down.

I tend to think it was PPSM. Most especially since he suddenly showed up here very recently which indicates he's been on another one of his scouting missions to find any and all mentions of his real identity across the wide expanses of the internets. I wish I had that kind of energy. :eek :hmmm

I saw the most recent post in the "complaints" thread just before the board disappeared. It was by "guest" & said it was a second request to remove a thread with "unauthorized personal information" -- it linked to some innocuous thread that mentioned the name of a deceased famous chef in passing, but included nothing else that could be considered personal info.

Yep, that should be the reason why. That ugly mofo JB must've ordered Zetaboards to shut it down.
He's such a bitter cunt hah Posted Image

Just found out by the way. Never received any emails.
Zetaboards must be really stupid to listen to the complaints on such a small issue.
Then again, they did interfere once by deleting the thread on the chef and JB's account.

There wasn't even any personal information posted. That ugly bitch must be one uptight fucker.
Is he rotting in his grave already?

I might try to get it back if anyone wants a board where you get to be complete cyber cunt with no repercussions. At least there wasn't any porn though.
I wanted to smack him in the face so hard with his silly threats.

Face it #26, I think the only reason ZB does anything based on JB's rants is simply because they're sick and tired of his threats of lawsuits against them. I had a discussion with one of their mods on the issue back when he was on his last tear here and it was obvious they were being bombarded by emails from him.

So that's why... Is that old geezer even capable of filing a lawsuit though?
L Chat must've been bombarded by even more more complaints but nothing ever happens to them.

He tries to be assertive (while failing miserably) but that only made me want to ignore his threats even more.
At least Roger was genuinely upset by it which was why I took pity on him.

I hope that cunt JB cries in a corner OCDing over any mention of his name on the Internet.

Of course everyone knows he's not going to file a lawsuit. No lawyer would even take the case. It's just his constant and unending threats that people get sick of. It's easier just to cut & run than to deal with him.

The saddest thing is that outside of all the lunacy he's actually a very nice, interesting, and intelligent guy.

You should do it. Don't let the bullies win, you have as much right to be there as anyone else. One mentally unstable person shouldn't be able to strip away the privileges of others just because they are having an "episode." Although, I suspect what was really bothering him was the fact that nobody was talking about him anymore so he had to do something big to get his attention fix.

If you'll be starting up a new version of G Chat let us know. Since we hadn't heard from you I thought maybe you just got tired of dealing with JB. No one would blame you. It's probably not even his real name, honestly.

Also of note, but perhaps just a coincidence, is this person complaining on the Zetaboards forums:

I don't think there's a way to retrieve forums that've been shut down. Don't think it was just PPSM's deal that got it shut down either, but Roger's and MPC's and all the other stuff that happened on there.
They must've looked through the entire board to decide to shut it down. As "Virgil" said, G Chat was violating multiple terms of service.

Oh well, G Chat's time was over. Maybe you guys had fun...
