Tony Rowlett Posted December 7, 2002 Share Posted December 7, 2002 I just deleted "Reason #3" for the following reasons:<ol><li>The thread was initiated with a crude personal attack on two other photo.net members;<li>The thread was further poisoned with counter attacks - just as crude - from the two victims on the thread initiator;</ol>I thought about going in and removing just the attacks, but that would have been like picking salt out of sugar, and that would have been too much work and I would have been accused by 20 people of censorship!<p>If the thread initiator would like to start over without attacking, he may do so.

vuk_vuksanovic Posted December 7, 2002 Share Posted December 7, 2002 "<i>I go fishing for one day... and miss all the fun...</i>" <br><br> Surely, it's god's way of balancing out all the benefits you've enjoyed in life with a brilliant name like <i>Charles Barcellona</i>.

george_b1 Posted December 7, 2002 Share Posted December 7, 2002 Tony - I'm ancient civil libertarian - - and I reject "censorship" 99.95% of the time. IMHO, in this isolated instance, you were correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bert_denda Posted December 7, 2002 Share Posted December 7, 2002 Vuk As there is no appended smiley on your opening comment I am left wondering what it is that you're getting at. Could you please explain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nesrani Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 I thought it was quite a funny thread, actually, especially the denouement. Maybe there could be a closed thread archive so we could go back over some of the most entertaining stuff - like Phil Kneen's ravings and so on?

phill kneen Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 Phill Kneen was a true comic genius and master of the tounge in cheek. Where did he go? BRING BACK PHILL KNEEN AND HIS DRUNKEN RAMBLINGS!!!!! I'm on to the Manx government to see what they can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albert knapp md Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 Andy- have you taken leave of your senses?? Phil Kneen was a disaster and really disrupted the forum at the time. With the passage of time, I guess we can laugh at it now but uuugh... NO MORE KNEEN !!!!! Even the thought of that "character" makes me shudder.

pcg Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 Tony, For those of us who missed the poison thread, could you repost it for, say, one hour? Just for laughs? Please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phill kneen Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 Oh come now Dr Knapp, Phill had a loyal following of fans and well-wishers, a true star of this site. I for one couldn't wait to read what was going to happen next, I laughed so much at one thread that I did actually piss in my undies, the smell still lingers on my chair. I think I'm going to go and see him and have tea and cakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phill kneen Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 Tse-sung Wu, I'll tell you what we are talking about shall I ? We are talking about a genius, a master of dissimulation, a man so great that I tremble at his very name. Phill came and went like an Indian summer, warm and unexpected for the time of year (normally around late september, although Indian summers have been recorded as late as December). The day he was banned, NAH!!!!, cast out of photo.net I wept. I cried for all the unborn babies who will never know his gift, I sobbed for the huge loss of talent. 'poisoned threads'? I think not, his words were sweet nectar for the eyes. If his threads were poison then let me drink the death-juice and die in Phill's great bust ( I hear he has a 54 inch chest, with hairs ). Let us chant his name together. phill, phill, Phill, PHILL, PHILL!!!, PHILL!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phill kneen Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 To be honest, I thought most people knew I was Phill Kneen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen Herbert Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 Mmm,i think Phil has a web-site called "The unblinking Eye".It is under one of his other names...am i right?.To be honest, if it is the same person,the photos on it are very good indeed.Not that i am a fan of many of his poison remarks,swearing etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
