>> 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?

Just received a couple of emails from the Sysadmin-LP, -- in his first he tried to apologize for any 'unnecessary aggravation' he had caused me.
I replied that being unfairly banned from websites was no big deal (twice in 18 years?, shrug) but that because he called me a criminal, I couldn't accept his apology, - - although I thanked him for the amusing 'election'....
His reply: ----
Oh, I forgot to mention that all further email from you will be automatically deleted without being read. Believe it or not I don't harbor any particularly ill will, I just don't want to be bothered. Your phony offer to take over LP was actually helpful in the end. As I said, have a nice life.
What a sweetheart, -- I hope he gets absolution from some confessor, but he won't get it from me.

He's ashamed of how he conducted himself overall. He was dishonest and his generally low character surfaced. Now he wants to act all nonchalant and above it all. What a phony.

Thanks for your support.
Oh, I forgot, -- I'd appreciate it if someone here would repost this lovely last message from the sysadmin, over at LP's 'Last Post'.
Some there may be enlightened that my "phony" offer helped him to shut LP down.
#55. To: tpaine, Pericles, Hondo68, Fred Mertz (#53)
Thanks for your support.
Not at all.
He chickened out. You do realize that tomorrow is the last day of Goldi's annual DNS subscription?
sysadmin had already renewed it, apparently under his own name. I advised against this. I think he finally realized that the only thing about LP that was Goldi's was the domain name (libertypost.org & .net).
So he's closing it at noon tomorrow because at midnight tomorrow night, he would be using Goldi's pilfered property for his own purposes, however innocent those might actually be.
You weren't any legal threat to him compared to the actual legal peril he put himself in. And what do you suppose would happen the first time he made someone really really mad? They'd make complaints that he pilfered the domain name, might make fiduciary complaints against him concerning the handling of a deceased person's property. And that domain name was the only part of LP that Goldi actually owned and that had a real value, however negligible.
But by turning the domain into a memorial, no one can say that he took it for himself unlawfully. And he never actually wanted it to begin with anyway.
The DNS issue and his own bizarre ever-changing election with new candidates and new options and new scoring methods ending in complete tatters were why he pulled the plug. That and Neil telling him to close it. Neil's vote probably counted more than the rest of us put together because they knew each other personally for about 15 years.
And for all his whining about how awful we were and how awful all his friends thought we were, he actually did almost no moderating at all.
He pulled the plug at noon on the 14th because Goldi's DNS expires at midnight.
The rest is just a smokescreen and him trying to cover his own rather shameful election debacle.

I wouldn't call it "shameful."
I think that he simply didn't anticipate the can-of-worms that he plunged into.
But what you said about the real legal repurcussions of assuming ownership makes sense, so I agree that shutting LP down and putting up a memorial is the only thing that makes sense. Maybe one of these days Goldi's true family and next-of-kin will come across it and be comforted by the cyber-tribute left behind in her memory.

sysy started out as a clueless rube, and proceeded to shameful rather quickly. Whenever Gatlin came up with a scary sounding tale, he'd jump.

LOL! If you didn't participate in that bizarre soap opera for the last dozen years, there simply ain't no way you'd ever understand or believe it.

No true, Willy... The way LP was put down mattered to a lot of people, who posted their objections on that discussion thread. You're simply in denial.

Exactly, I didn't want to 'own' a site where 25% disapproved of my policies.
Would you?

You mean after all these years that you still naively believe that these chat rooms can function as some kind of democracy?
LOL! And you accuse ME of being in denial!?!
"JimRob's cesspit, JimRob's rules."
Goldi's website, Goldi's rules...
Neil and sysadmin were the only ones Goldi empowered with the ability to pull the plug regardless whether the rest of us voted for it or against it.
That's reality, not denial. No sense pissin' in the wind over it.

Yep, I believe we can function under a republican form of rules, and govt.
Democracies, (as you like them) don't work

You really liked JR's cesspit, didn't you?

Quite a few of us here questioned the assumption that Goldie 'empowered' anyone.
You're digging your denial hole deeper.

Question it all you want.
If she didn't "empower" anybody to pull the plug, then we'd all still be posting there, including you because sysadmin wouldn't have had the power to ban you.

Sysadmin simply assumed the power. -- Both he and Neil had the power because they were her tech administrators. -- Get it yet? -- Reread TC' s posts above, - - he has some excellent insights on the subject.

[tpaine #93] Sysadmin simply assumed the power. -- Both he and Neil had the power because they were her tech administrators.
It was stated that no will was found. Any grant of power by Goldi to sysadmin or Neil or anyone else was extinguished by her death.
Sysadmin had the password to access the system.
Unless Goldi did not own LP when she died, neither sysadmin, nor Neil, were lawfully "empowered" to do anything that they did. Because they had the password, they had the ability to do things. They were no longer "empowered" by Goldi to do anything.
Prior to Goldi's death, sysadmin was empowered by Goldi to act on her behalf. After Goldi's death, that power ceased to exist and no new power was bestowed from the heavens.
I believe Neil had ceased to have any agent relationship to Goldi for years prior to her death. He could not have been empowered to do anything by her death.
In the absence of any identified relative, all of Goldi's estate will go to the State of Florida under the control of a state appointed executor. The executor will be tasked with identifying the content of the estate and to auction it off or dispose of it. That would include Goldi's interests in Liberty Post.

You know none of this as fact, unless of course you had been named in Goldi's will or are the next of kin. Why are you specualting? IMO shutting down LP was the most righteous thing to do and the best tribute to Goldi, unless of course you have a Goldi clone waiting in the wings - and even then that would not be sufficient to maintain Goldi's memory.

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize just how active a poster you were on LP in recent times. I guessed I missed that memo.
For that matter you don't seem to much of a poster of news article on LF either, but that's for another discussion.
But I am all ears, pray tell what you believe would have been the best disposition on LP on Goldi's demise, especially when apparently she left no instructions or even expressed a preference (unless she did ti sysadmin and Neil at some time).
BTW, it's you don't know nothin'.

nolu's history at LP is well-known.
It is you who hides behind a mask here, afraid to reveal yourself because, obviously, you know you made yourself hated at LP. It is the only reason anyone would hide their LP identity. Deckard is IW, Hondo was Booshbot, Pericles was Destro/Godwinson. They aren't hiding anything. But you are. Because you know what our reaction is to your psychopathic personality.
But you claim to have nothing to hide while stalking others and trying to pretend that they are the ones hiding something.
Come out from under your bridge into the light. Reveal thyself, troll.

Yo, witless, post #105 was to Fred Mertz, not Nolu. Your dementia is showing. Perhaps you should relax your panties.

Your dementia is showing. Perhaps you should relax your panties.
Your true colors are starting to show. Nice cheap shots at every woman posting here at LF. Psychopaths with deep-seated inferiority complexes always follow this pattern. Maybe you should tell us about your mother sometime. That would be entertaining.
My identity is already well know to many posters on LF.
Oh? Then you can name these posters who know your LP identity other than LF's newly registered Spartacus (but who is not LP's Spartacus who got banned from LP a decade ago and stopped posting to any of the P forums). And you and this newly-minted Spartacus just happened to register in tandem here at LF at the same time? It's almost like you were coordinating your actions via email or phone.
Are you sure you don't want to post a "LOLAYDA" or two? C'mon, I know it's eating you up. Just let it out. Open your little beak and sing, Canary.

Then name them, other than Palmdale and GatlinSpartacus. Tell us who knows your real LP handle here at LF other than those two?
You keep saying this. Now tell us who these others are. Or admit that you're lying.
#128. To: TooConservative (#121)
There are a number of people here making intelligent rational points, and there are a few who are dishonest and unpleasant.
It feels just like Liberty Post, complete with its own canary cage in the far left corner.
#130. To: Dead Culture Watch (#128)

What is this persistent reference to canary cage and canaries? Obviously I missed the memo.

Canary: "I don't know anything about this Canary cage..."
Anyone who posted at LP knows what a Canary is.
And you keep telling us how well-known you were at LP and how many posters here at LF know your LP handle. So name them.
But you won't, will you?
#149. To: TooConservative (#147)
And you keep telling us how well-known you were at LP and how many posters here at LF know your LP handle.
First, witless, I never made a claim with respect to being well known or not on LP. Still best to loosen those panties a bit and get some circulation to your brain. Second, witless, I never said how many on LF know, whether that was a lot or a little. But to help you sleep better tonight I will tell you that..............you will never know, at least not from me.
#154. To: SOSO (#149)

But I do know who knows. And it is telling you won't just admit who they are either.
I can almost hear those cellphones dialing, emails flashing past. Gatlin just happens to show up now, flying wingman for you...
It's not a mystery at all.

I believe you had SOSO on bozo once at LP.
