So long, and thanks for all the fish.
Did he ever offer anything to you apart from chum? .... I get the hitchhikers guide ref in case you wondered
I still fully expect the wonderful Idol to re-appear at some unfortunate point. He has managed to monitor and hide (suspect only) up-to now but it will not last.
Rgds
Grimbley (some may call it Gribley)
He can do whatever he wants. :ermm: The site is boring as fuck without him. Nice safe stance, though. If he never returns, you shrug and say "Meh.", if he comes back you claim "I knew it all along!!!". Win/Win. :dry:

:yup::yup::yup:
He was the main ingredient or asset of this site (Like it or not !!!!!).... And Meg you seem to be proving that by not being around as much now:yup:
No matter how much shit he stirred up , he still made this siteRacistFun to post on.......
You can see by the posts since he has been gone , the controversial fun has now disappeared....
I hope he does come back in some shape or form ....(Yes it is me saying that!!!)..
But if he doesn't , I would assume you will have to fill his shoes in some sort of manner:idunno:
Are you up for the challenge:01:
I'm here for the friends I've gotten to know over the years; I don't want to miss them when they stop by.
Having seen the number of whiners, cryers, and bitchers who eventually succeeded in driving a stake into the heart of the site, I can't see why anyone would want to step into Idol's shoes.
Since when do you give a shit about "the number of whiners, cryers, and bitchers" ..... It never stopped Idol before ....
And some of the new people here do Appreciate your presence here (Hint Fuckhead!!!!)
And I never gave a shit what people said about Idol or anyone else , I choose what to say or who to talk or respond too..
You use to be the same as well... I understand some reasons for you not to be here as much , but giving up on the rest of the people here that do respect your thoughts and posts isn't going to change that...
You do get that right???
People come and go , but new people are trying to make something of this place. And Idol is not a replaceable guy (And I did like him as well) , he was unique , but so are you!!!!!
Maybe you should try to remember that!!!:yup:
I do appreciate your friendship and kind words, Shay. As I said in the PM I just sent, I am mourning the absence of a friend I have had daily interactions and fun with for several years. I'm not feeling very jovial right now.
As for 'not caring about the whiners', we all have our breaking point. I'll mix some metaphors here, but think "straw that broke the camel's back" or picture a grasshopper getting overtaken by numbers of ants on an anthill- eventually the pissants get enough bites in.
Honestly, I suspect lack of appreciation, non-contributing lurkers, and give-away invitees who weren't worth the kindness, all contributed. I can't speak for him, but I know him fairly well, so I'll make my best guess. Most people don't realize what they have until it is gone.
This thread was similar to several others Idol did over the years. He created false scenarios for those, as well (this was clearly meant to be a joke). These all drew a lot of attention and were fun. He did his best to find worthy invitees for each one. In fact, I know he even donated money to get invites at certain rare sites to give people what they REALLY wanted. For his efforts, many people failed to live upto their words.
Honestly, I do not know if he is coming back.
For all those who shot their mouths off repeatedly about how much better the site would be without Idol...
NOW is your fucking chance- SHOW us how you want this site to be. Contribute your asses off. Step up or shut up, bitches. :dry:
Meg
I understand where you are coming from.....
I haven't been around much because I wasn't feeling well , but Idol is a huge asset here and even if 2 new people post more regular , it still won't be the same.
Idol is a very unique person and I don't think he can be replaced..
I can honestly tell you when I started here I thought he was the biggest instigator racist I have ever seen.. But after 2 days of me posting , you catch on it is an act , and he really is a nice guy and again not replaceable .. And I hope he wins the lottery and can afford Samoa internet to come back LOL!!! , it will be a great asset for FST to have him back.....
As for the people who did dislike Idol .... Lets be realistic .....They didn't post then and they will not post now ...
Using the excuse of one person you dislike to stop you from posting is just fuckin stupid and ridiculous...
You let me know when you are getting up from Shiva from loosing a good friend
I am too very sad and disappointed at the same time.... And I do hope he comes back....But Idol has to make that decision not us....
If not ..... We can either shit or get off the pot....
Either way I am with you .......
Shay
Go on now, show us your valuable contributions. Let's see you do more than just bitch about stuff. Floor is all yours...
EDIT- A special Grimbley colored 'candle' in honor of all his valuable contributions to date:
http://i.imgur.com/xVxndPg.jpg?1
Forums are for opinions and, you would hope, help and not really contributions (but agree that is somewhat subjective to the site). Please do tell me how Idols content was "useful" to anyone.
I appreciate some posts are good and some bad but do I need to post 20000 more hate shite to be worth while in your "Idol" eyes?
EDIT- I will no longer play with the forums but will continue, until banned, to post into the NZB section. Good luck with your crusade
Gri(m)bley over and out.... but out of interest to some admin type, what is my post count in NZB section (just original posts)?
Since NZB's are largely, "look what I found, here it is", I can exceed all your contributions by posting an index page from a good torrent site. Check. Mate. :yup:

GrimbleyMega (some may callit Gribleyme Meg)
Meg ...
Are you really blaming Gribley for Idol deciding to take a break or leave FST???
Are you saying that Gribley is the Idol Buster???
I know you and Idol have been here along time and seen people (good and bad ) come and go......But me being here a short time I can say just by observing ... Idol was not the most liked person and was not winning any awards for most liked on FST .....
Now did I like Idol??? Yes .... Did I think he could be a real ASS!!?? Yes
But all of that was either overlooked or ignored because he did his purpose here by contributing in his way .....
And so does Gribley.....So you attacking and blaming just Gribley just sounds pretty ridiculous and unrealistic too me..
Heck you could blame me as well for going after Idol every once and a while......Or many other people that disliked the guy ...
And me going after him was warranted sometimes (well most of the time!!), and if not I admitted wrong doing and worked out our differences and moved on
But I can say "IT WAS HIS CHOICE" to do what he wanted to do leave or stay..... No one forced him what to do...
Will I miss him ??? Yes Did he have a good side??? Yes ... Did it have to be pulled out of him most of the time?? It sure fuckin did!!!!!
But trying to blame other people for Idol leaving ...... He would have left along time ago if that was the issue ......
Gribley is not to blame !!
He is voicing his opinions while a lot of people stay silent ..... that is something I do and can believe...
Like that or not .. It makes more sense.....
PS. If I choose to post in the word games and not the lounge does that mean I am hiding too??
People here can do what they want when they want .... Someone I respect told me that once or twice ... Guess who that was???
Your Friend
Shay
You've gotta start keeping a dictionary handy instead of skipping the words you don't understand. :mellow:
From yesterday:
Grumbley was just a persistent bitcher. He doesn't know how to make things better, but sure knows how to keep yapping away. Fuck him and anyone else who can't make a real contribution, but cries (incessantly) at those who are.
He got what he wanted- whether or not he was the cause, he should now step up and show us just how fucking great his way is. :dry::dry::dry:
First off....It is going to be difficult for you to get banned , because you really do nothing to warrant to be banned...
As for not posting in forums ....That is just ridiculous !!! And I know your skin is thicker than that....
So you didn't like Idol or his methods of posting (get in line there were lots!!).... So what he did served a purpose here good and bad and that is that!!
There were spurts he did show some realism and you did see a nice person in there (yes it is me saying that!!)....
Did he stop other people from posting in the forums or discourage them?? well time will tell ... In my opinion he did none of those things , but we will see right??
And in-between the crap there was a nice guy in there and it did show up after so many posts (and it took some provoking or attacking back but he did open up) , and that is the type of personality he chose to betray here... .
But the Fuckin guy was loyal and took the time to keep up this forum and you do have to give him credit for that (and I do!!)...
Anybody liking the guy or not , he fit a role here that did make these forums unique and sometimes fun to read and contribute back...
And like clockwork he was here pretty much every day and did what he did well.....
Like or dislike the guy , he will be missed!!!
But so would you , his role was his , and yours is yours ....
You saying you are done posting in forums doesn't solve anything !!!
That's it!!!
PS.. Went through all the people that did post here (was bored a curious), 7 people (321 post to 3165 , and there was a few more with low numbers I didn't account for ) in all the time I have been here have not once seen a post in the lounge from them , but seem to come out of the woodwork to either ask for a invite or say something bad about Idol , or just say goodbye ...But I have not seen one post in the lounge (where we post that is ) by any of them ..... So what the fuck is that!!!!
And is that going to change?? I highly doubt it
And Meg if you want the names and stats I have them (I was really bored!!)...
Everyone that does post here is a asset no matter what is said or done....
That is my opinion.....
the obscure place would be great, well it depends on which site as i have almost all obscure ones
Hmm…wonder how many left because of idol or did stay silent because of him? When I first joined, this place was alive. Now it isn't as much. And there is no point flogging a dead horse. Idol was a rude person to many. Fact. Simple fact. He butted in where he had no business and tried to make people look bad when he had no right to. Gribley is well entitled to his opinion. As is any other. People need to log off if they are getting offended. This whole debate doesn't matter. We have people who didn't know him, didn't like him, didn't respect him, liked him, respected him. Same as any community or society. We just have to learn to get along. He is gone. For good? Probably not. But who cares. He doesn't or any other member of this site, have any affect on my life.
Personally, I think this thread has gone way off topic and should be locked and if anyone wants to continue their conversations, do it in private because I suspect many are fed up of looking at their BS between the love sick puppies and the haters.
I am not saying I don't agree with you .....And I am not trying to be rude , but you have been here since 2004 and I started here in 2013 , but didn't really start posting on the forums til this year , and most of the time it is fun (even with Idol)
I assume at one time threelions00 you did post more frequently in the forums (by your post count) , can I ask you why you stopped posting in the lounge??
And your analogy of Idol is spot on and I wouldn't argue with any of it.. Other than I didn't mind him in the forums I was in (if I didn't like what he said or did I let him know it!!)
And Gribley is one of my closer friends here.. Just to let you know...
Edit: And Meg as well (sorry for leaving you out at first;)
Shay
Leaving is easy.Comedy is hard.Sheesh.
Anyway apparently they do have internets here in Pago Pago as there's a US army base but seriously where isn't there one?.
The trip went well except for some foul weather that put us precariously close to sailing off the edge of the World.|
I'm also pretty sure I saw a sea monster.
Not going to bother reading everything that was said in my absence since presumably it was boring but......
In my experience two-faced cowards,bratty children and cockroaches are a few things emboldened by my absence so apparently a couple of members are one or more of those.:)
Feigning moral outrage typically works better if not slagging someone in the same breath.
Locking a thread and moving to PMs in a forum already dearth of activity only makes sense if you feel you are always right and everyone else doesn't matter.
If I'm "rude" then what are the people who are always telling other people what they should or shouldn't do? I'll help out with this one, it starts with having a micro and ends with phallus.
As for Shay's point about me being "loyal", true but if he actually had the awareness not to be friends with people like Gribley then he would realize that (blind) loyalty isn't always a good thing or so the Hitler Youth taught me.
Anyway I suggest some of you stop pretending to be so mature and actually grow-up.After all it's just words and more perceptive types will note that there's rarely,if ever any malice behind mine.
Also ......

Glad to see you back fuckhead!!!
I can say it was boring without you and we were I crisis mode to try to fill your shoes (Meg is the only hope)...But we all know that is impossible !!
But did you just call me a Nazi???
Glad you kind of had fun on your mini vacation (or hiding or picking up Cash??)
Shay
Come on now Idol .... Use some common sense ..
If Barbra Streisand wanted him dead , she had the clout to do it...
For me that is too high profile alleged killing for me:whistling
And why am I a Zionist ?? I believe in Israel and being the Jewish state but every race and nationality is welcome ......And to be honest most Israeli citizens agree as well...
Now we need the Arab states to agree to the same ..... That will end most of the big conflicts going on right now
By the way 4 missiles were launched into Israel the other day , and the Israeli planes went in and bombed the shit out of Gaza again!!! (got a update from a buddy of mine there , then it was confirmed on I24news)
Did you see anything on Canadian news or even American news ?? I know you are not into it but just curious if you did see something I might of missed....
If the Israelis/Palestinians are really interested in the rest of the World seeing the truth then they need to get a Kardashian to live there so there will always be a flock of reporters around.
Best part is too that they will be paparazzi so if a few of them are taken out by a missile then no big loss.
Hiding,no.Worthless,yes.:smilie4:
Send The Kardashians to Israel?!!! Even the Jews don't deserve that kind of suffering... :no:
Welcome back, queer. :happy:
I think there's some sort of trick where you're able to look past the surface meaning of a sentence to get to the core of what is really being said.
I said "think" because so far I've personally been unable to do that and so do really poorly with allegory and humour and have ended up killing a lot of innocent people.
Less hate in my entire portfolio than in your few posts in this thread .True story.
Typical twatwad response to the World not bowing to their self-interest.Quote:
I will no longer play with the forums
Change rarely if ever happens by locking yourself away in your room.waddle.
:popcorn:
Who says Israel (ONLY!! Democratic Society in the Middle East(with some modifications)), needs permission or agreement from Arabs or anyone??
They are protecting there State and Citizens (of all race and color,and religion) and there way of living and what they built ..... Is that wrong???
Do you have a better solution ?? Be interesting to hear about it (not being a smart-ass I would like to hear) .....
Edit: You may have misinterpreted "Bomb the Shit" ... The Fighter Jets bombed the areas where the rockets were launched from.... Sound Better.....
My apologies for that whatcdfan...
What are you trying to say?? I don't get it ???
You don't even understand the D of diplomacy, do you? :cry: but it's something humane and closely related to morality so I wouldn't blame you for that given the fact that you're a Jew.:mellow:
Also, who says anything about Israel needing permission, I guess missiles and bombs would suffice for that. There's no real need to elaborate it any further.
You're in racial delusion to believe that Israel is protecting...... Protecting at the expense of the liberty of a sect of it's minority? or protecting at the expense of the weakness of a different ethnicity?
I'll tell you a fact but then again it's diplomatic so you may or may not fully understand it. :P
Power at the expense of weak and the wealth at the expense of the poor, never endures.
And, that you greatly admire what they've built but you don't give it a thought that it's built on the graves of old, women and children, young they're still fighting.:whistling
Irony wasted on someone who only understands the power and the land it fetches.:(
Hey whatcdfan ....
I replied to your post in the post , it was just easier for me and I hope it is easy to follow...
-Actually the last question was for Idol but I will reply to your comment or analogy .....
In any war Israel fought ..... What Gain in land did they get ??? The offered it back and they didn't want what came with it , and today there own people still closes its borders and doesn't help ....Why no comment on that ??? Why not ask there own people to help them??
What did they gain in monetary value?? Are they selling the land to another country or something ??Land they wanted and begged to give back , Israel is still paying all its water and hydro free of charge plus a lot of other things .... Why isn't the Person in charge of its citizens there supporting with the Billions of dollars they have ??
If you know that answer that would be great to hear??
In my opinion the interpretation of Zionist or Zionism is considered bad ..... And In some ways it is ..... But it will never exist in Israel because it would be hypercritical saying that it is just a place where Jews only could live.....Yet it depends how you look at it ....
Will the higher percentage be Jewish or people Believing in Judaism ?? I guess we could say yes....
But being a Democracy every Race Color and Religion , Beliefs or Way they choose to live (Except Noted Terrorist that is decided by countries with Democracies and they seem to sneak in and kill Israeli citizens anyway ) in Israel can do so....
Lets try to name a Arab country or state that does the same thing?? Or a Dictatorship country that allows it ???[/QUOTE]
And I will end with this....
How do you expect your interpretation of Diplomacy or your type of negotiating , if you are constantly told not to exist or not liked ??
If you have no choice to save and protect your citizens lives (and learn true facts on both sides of the conflict not media or PROPAGANDA , It always changes after the conflict is done ) , and I do agree with you in wars or fighting with the intent to harm or kill no one wins....
Just sometimes there is no other way of survival but stop someone that is trying to harm you......
ISIS would be a great example of that.......They want to live there way and Remove or Kill anyone else that doesn't want to conform .....
How can you negotiate on paper with no violence or aggression to prevent it ??
These are just my opinions and facts I have read in-between both sides of conflicts...
Shay
I've had a very hard time getting your point. No surprise, my irony detecting ability is weak.
The problem with all/any of your arguments is that the story doesn't start in 2015, it starts in 1917. Also, if somebody is homeless and has been abandoned by their family doesn't give anyone right to kick his ass and rob his garbage.
It's really a shame on our species that being most intelligent some of us do hideous acts and turn a blind eye about it's righteousness then to humiliate us further, they try to reason about the validity of their actions.
What Israel is doing in the name of self-protection is a systematic genocide.
You share the viewpoint of the Israeli regime and society which prevents them to look for other solutions to the problem then committing a genocide.
Live your dream while it lasts. Once it's over, there won't be a sequel.
If you find my points Weak or inaccurate ... Instead of blaming Just Israel for problems in the Middle East ...
Arabs are Killing Arabs.. Fact ... How do you fix that?? Or is that Israels fault as well...
-Get the parties involved to get the Billions of dollars to help there people first , not violence.....And protect everyone not just who you think you should...
-Show you want peace with all your neighbors no matter how they want to live or what you believe in...
- Believe humanity does have a value on earth and not be a MARTYR and think you are saving lives ...Your neighbors lives should be just as important.....
-Repeat Make the people in charge know your life and your familes lives are all important and don't use or doctor religion for purposes of killing others or blame them because they are different and believe it is good...And try not to get killed for saying it out loud.....
--Stop blaming and not say a soluton .... I am giving solutions or examples .... You are giving blame or wishing bad on people ... How do you think peace can happen in the Middle East for everyone and that means Everyone , Not just one Religion but all Religions and Beliefs??
--- The best solution is don't promote hate!! Especially when it comes to children ... That is the future ... Believe they lives are very important to better our future and should live on the earth for 105 years!!! Not be sacrificed for hate !!
---There is no other way to say this but you are saying what is being taught to children... I gave my opinions and solutions ... You still just give blame.....
Why not give your opinons on how to fix it as apposed of blaming ??.....That my friend is Propaganda.... And that has to end to help everyone...In the middle there has to be a solution .... Give on both sides and accept... There will be some gains and some losses , but asking for everything , you know what the answer will be ....
---Arab leaders or so called Terroists have Billions of dollars they have accumulated from the blood and sacrifice of there people .... Why are they not sharing it to make there peoples lives better first and then build security for them second ..... To me that makes more sense...
---Israel is a pea in the dessert and was built from the ground up , and again shared with the world .... Hate them or not , that is fact!!!
-- To me and my opinion Most religions are being watered down , and I have Arab , Persian(changes the controversy from calling themselves Iranian) of Christian and Muslim faith (but not orthodox or super religious and neither am I ) yet Radical Muslims are still being breeded in large numbers .... Good or bad it produces hate to everyone by one way of thinking and not given the right to think for yourself ... To me that is alot more dangerous and Fact..... What is your solution for that ?? Or do you believe that is good for the World ?? And I am not passing judgment on your beliefs it is your choice.... But I live in Canada with not the same fears or way of life in the Middle East (and they think it is normal to hear horns and have to go to shelters)...I can only go by people I know that do live in Israel ..... Do you have friends that live close to Israel or in the state?? If you do ...What do they say??
--Why no explanation or any Blame you can't find that Israel's neighbours close there borders and don't help or give relief ?? Why do you think they do that ?? And how do you think that can be resolved??
And it is funny that Israel's borders are not closed but stricktly monitored..... Not the other neighbors ... Why do you think that is??
Whatcdfan....
I would like to hear your opinions and solutions , not just the Blame speech........I honestly don't think there is a wrong or right answer ... but somewhere in the middle there must be a solution...It would be nice to find ... For everyone...
Trying to make sense of your post would give me a headache, so I better leave it for lulz.
In other news, I just finished watching RT international news and among the top stories was a UN report of how IDF has used brutality on Palestinian children. It must be available on their website.
*graphics were disturbing as an Israeli soldier was furiously beating a Palestinian teenager and his mother was crying and trying to come in between. Helpless women.
Watching I24 news right now and Aljazeera News Tabs open Honestly as well not one word yet..
Funny I watch RT news on cable sometimes and They are worse than Aljazeera New when it comes to Bias and Propaganda (Fact) and having more retractions or proven false reporting BBC is a close second.. Again read between the lines ......
The Canadian news this morning one of the headlines was Netanyahu overspent on his travelling expenses ... But nothing on what you said...
If IDF did something that bad for real without reason(you know like throwing big rocks at civilians and IDF and trying not to get caught) It would be on all the breaking News channels remember the media loves Bashing the IDF
Again Read between the lines...
But it is too bad you have Blame but no solutions to make it better.....
Even better Whatcdfan....
The 3 main Anchors/Reporters on I24 news (Israeli 24 hour news) are Arabs , yet all the other news stations I mentioned has no one of Jewish Decent .... HMMMMM are those Arabs traitors LOL!!
Like I said before I make any assumptions I read between the lines .... ISIS just killed over 400 people .. Did RT news report that??
Even CNN did LOL!!
You're pissed off, aren't you? or are you just trying to imply that I'm lying?
No of course not !!!! I believe you that it was reported on RT news ....
But was the whole story told??
A similar insident occured with an american boy visiting the Gaza strip(if you remember ) a while back , and 2 auxiliary Israeli police were accused of excesive force and part of the footage was posted to news media and a outrage happened....The Kid did look Bad
Next day the whole footage was posted and this boy and his cousin he was visiting was throwing rocks at the police and the IDF and were arrested.... I do agree they do use too much force at times ? Yes .... and the aux officer was suspended , for how long i don't remember to be honest ... and a few Police guys who didn't have the shields did get hurt bad as well...In those situations media runs the footage for ratings and viewing and then the whole truth comes out ... That is all i meant ... If you thought I was calling you a liar ?? Absolutely not!!
But i always wait a few days before the whole truth comes out ..... And the Israeli side isn't always innocent and i would never say that.... But the higher percentage of being right does seem to be them. considering the scrutney and the higher standards they have to keep , especially being watched more than any other Military Force or Police anywhere(Maybe tied with the US LOL!!) and they make great headlines and sell papers...
Like the whole Protective Edge conflict .... Seem to have alot of retractions and reporters admitting false statements and reportings and by all nationalities reporting..Do you agree with that??
And at the same time the ISIS who was killing thousands of Arabs , that news took a back burner to the (I) and (P) conflict...Much more important news than thousands of innocent lives killed ..... Again Israel SELLS!!!
Bottom Line... Stop shooting rockets and throwing stones and sneaking in through tunnels .... Maybe if they have there own police and stable people Governing the territories (not trying to be rude I don't know what to call where they live because it is not recognized as a country or state by the rest of the world) and live their lives maybe all that crap would stop... Can the people do that of there Free will?? Try to make a stable Government.. If You want freedom and stability it has to start somewhere right ... If the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing what do you expect....In such a small space it seems to have alot of people saying they are in charge or take credit for doing bad things... How does anyone know who is in charge?? If you say yes there is ... That means they are responsible for wrong doings and do nothing about it .... To me that is the only way it makes sense... Yet the people that do say they are in Charge Deny they allowed lets say Rockets sent into Israel or climb out of a tunnel with the intent to hurt someone....So What the Hell are you supposed to do about it?? Welcome them to do it??
Again i am sorry if you thought i said you were lying ... Just wait for all the facts first .... Thats what i try to do ....First reports are not always right and that is on Both sides.......
And again would luv to hear your ways to fix the bad things on both sides......
