Last time I purchased pixie dust I was robbed. A guy convinced me that it was real, he even made one of his fifteen hot assistants disappear using it, but when I tried to put it on my orange I realized it was just sand. Does pixie dust have to be used be an actual pixie fairy to work?Quote:

The smart people out there will know why without me having to point out all the things in your post that demonstrate your absolute lack of focus on anything but the content you share, and people you share it with wanting that content for the contents sake.Quote:

hi hagckz0r, the reason we want to reduce our members database is just to make sure we just keep the real advanced magicians and enthusiastic members. over the years i learned the hard way that having open doors wont give you the quality members that you want. in our art of magic, secrets ARE what make magic so magical and when we started AOM we found out that many none magicians joined, just to find out how things work. i can tell you a little secret... if you know how magic works, the magic is gone and you will never be able to experience the feeling of magic again. so keeping the website exclusive makes it possible for us to lift the quality of the website even more. a good community means also that members are willing to share and to help each other. the larger a site is, the more anonymous people are, and the less involved they are. we prefer to have an active community. this translates not only in an ever lasting flow of uploads but also a very high rate of seeding/leeching. so yes.. we will continue this strategy. inactive members get banned and only a very small amount of members gets accepted per year (say 5). if a strategy works, you should not change it right?Quote:

if you are a level 10 tracker, then AOMK must be a good 100, as we got 1000x more files than you, and with less members hahaha
Also please remember Jac you did not even start AOM, or have anything to do with AOM when it started,
It was Lenaud01, and his buddie who had filefight, and because Lenaud01 wanted more money, he left, and made AOM
You was appointed dogs body long after it was established, and it would not be here, or there now, if you hadnt of cried to lenaud01 about losing your power hungry position on AOM
Those off AOM who are still on AOMK even today know it, as well as you do too, as we are really not as easily fooled, or led by you
WHAT IS A TROLL, OR BULLIE :-
A Master Of Illusion Troll :-
Pulling countless white lies out of his hat, this Master of Deceit plays his tricks on the trusting eyes of an established internet community. Targeting those who still believe in the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy, his slight of hand in posting can be very deceptive to those members.
Some of the well-seasoned posters are privy to this game of cards. However, trusting souls are sucked quickly into his mind games. The point of controlling his act is, find the weak link in his house of cards, knocking them flat, thus ending his performance.
The Master of Illusion does have a motive. He is looking for personal gain. Either, money for a “sick mother,” or some personal form of satisfaction from manipulation techniques he employs. Perhaps he is searching for those he considers “beneath him,” so he can effectively saw their souls in half with the stroke of a few keys.
The key to defeating him is to discover his bag of tricks and expose the Ace up his sleeve, THEN REPORT HIM TO STAFF http://www.magicalproteachings.com/i...ilies/wink.gif
Please help us nip this in the bud, as soon as it starts.
I actually find that there are two classes of people who cause maximum trouble on forums. One is of course, the traditional "troll" who wreaks havoc by anti-social behaviour and by deliberately riling up forum members to get kicks out of it, causing havoc and bad blood in the process.
I think as admins, we need to realize that there is another group which I would term as "online bullies" or "internet bullies" who can become equally destructive in undermining communities.
These gentlemen/ladies differ from trolls in the sense that they are not anti-social, but they are an accepted and sometimes well-respected members who assume a sort of informal and unofficial leadership role. They use this position to intimidate and assert their views on newer and less established members and often push their weight around to mark territorial rights. They will generally try and behave properly, but subtly try and behave like moderators and preach about forum behaviour. They will also turn and insult people as they wish and surprisingly other forum members will turn a blind eye to them. They will usually "adopt" ownership of a single forum or a subforum of a board and hang out there frequently with their clan. (this feature is usually more common in larger forums)
These people are often the starting point of cliques because they can gather a group of yes-people around them in no time.
Beware of these people and watch out for them because they can be a lot more trouble in the long run than isolated trolls running loose.
Sometimes you just need an excellent troll to combat an established forum bully
Similarities between trolls and bullies:
1. Both trolls and bullies can cause enormous damage to a forum by their behaviour.
2. Both trolls and bullies usually have excellent communication skills using which they attack their opponents unmercifully.
3. Both trolls and bullies can be intimidating to any normal forum user.
4. Both trolls and bullies have the effect of creating bad blood.
5. Both trolls and bullies are hard to control without intervention right from the top - the forum administrator(s) or owner(s) because even moderators might find it hard to control them without support from others.
Differences
1. Trolls are usually isolated. They are generally short-lived in a forum. A person who signs up on a forum specifically to troll doesn't hang around in other parts of the forum and leaves as soon as the damage is done.
Bullies are more or less regular forum members who might have a huge post count and a following.
2. Trolls usually hit and run. A successful troll needs only a couple of posts in a single thread to turn it into a raging tornado.
Bullies stay on and intimidate other members by throwing their weight around and using their group of yes-people to lend force to their powerful attacks.
3. Trolls are usually identified for what they are.
Bullies rarely get identified for what they are, because they are regular members and nobody can suggest that they are ordinary trolls because they have a huge post count.
4. Trolls hardly respond to challenges. Instead they enjoy watching others fight.
Bullies enjoy fighting and run around bashing everybody who dares oppose them.
5. The potential damage done by trolls is limited to a particular topic of discussion or at most a forum.
The potential damage done by bullies is forum-wide and not related to topics, but to the personality of the bully and the kind of respect and influence he wields.
Don't ever get fooled by the number of words in the above post..
Explicit use of 3 buttons here: 'ctrl','c','v'..
'ctrl+c' and 'ctrl+v' :naughty:
BTW: I've an imp questin in my mind, CHEEKYCHAP.. Do you have a crush on Jacqueline ?? :inlove:
may be trying to e-impress her by going against her everytime..
As, I used t do the same thing (practically though) with my gf, at the very begining of our relatinship.. :yes:
Shes nothing to me, and will always be a power hungry scumbag who constantly plagued AOMK,
See i recruit all those they dont, and i pick out all the best users, and i give everyone a chance to get on board to learn magic
So you tell me who in 5 years will be sitting here with a good big fat user base???
We got less members, and still have more new files than AOM, or any other site
See AOM has always looked at things small time, and that is why its file share is very small, and weak
4 BIG problems with AOM :-
1 :- The staff are out for money, and vast ammounts of it go into there pockets
2 :- Im on AOM, and everything they upload i take, and will put on AOMK to expand our own files, so there users miss out on what we share at AOMK
3 :- Even with all there members, only 1% of users actually buy stuff, And the rest upload the same old shit given to them
4 :- All users want it now, and try to get as many files as possible, when infact no 1 can watch it all anyway
Also dont AOM have a recruit site here thats another copy site we dont need :-
http://artofmisdirection.net/index.php
Ill add afew exclusives in there to get it set off, and post afew links on demonoid,
Also pass unique torrents on open site to get members who we will then recruit into AOMK
See unlike AOM we show users where to go, so they can leeech loads, so they dont need to on AOMK
Also as soon as a users catches up in file collecting, hes not so hungry no more, and will calm down
He then appreciates whats on offer at AOMK, unlike alot of past members who have missed out in the last 4 years
Infact what new files did they get today off AOMK???
MMMMMMMMM Nothing yet again
Well the ammount of magic sites im adding to help keep it all free, will at least keep the peers, and seeders good on torrents
Because lets face it AOM Lenaud01 blew the door right off when he made AOM, and thats the reason we now see all the magic dvds on open sites etc, etc
userbase?? huh!!Quote:

Dear FST members,
Ive got a HOT competition for you. Make sure you join this competition and I will make sure the winner will get a GREAT prize. The only thing you need to do is solve a complicated question.
And the question is this: If www.artofmisdirection.com is our only and original site, how come that there is a website which a certain fool names: recruitment site, which is ALSO registrated by the same person that registrated www.aomkiller.com, www.magicprop.com and the other sites mentioned.
Yessssssssssss I can see you are alllllllllllllllllllllllllll exited about winning this one. To help you with some clues, I will include a screenshot that might give you some directions.
But wait.. there is a second question:
WHY was this fake site created. You can chose from several answers:
a) To steal members names + passwords of members who accidentally log in the wrong domain so these can be abused on the original AOM or other sites.
b) Because he has so much finances that he has no idea what to do with all the incoming donations.
c) Because he is jealous and wants to have a website that looks like the original one.
d) other, please let me know your version in this forum thread.
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooo who will win this game.. come on guys... let me hear you SCREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who will win????!!!!!!
http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/9822/magicprop5.jpg
so if some 1 came across, and started to duplicate that site by taking files, and poaching your users, it would be fine with you??
That was @ Bijoy
ah.. here is our first contestant... i dont hear you say the right answer.. please look again at the 2 questions asked and perhaps YOU will be the winner of this amazing prize i have ready. go and give it another shot mister!!!!Quote:

hmmmmmm answer a... well... lets see if other contestants will join this challenging competition too. but you might want to take your time to answer the first question too. give it a try. :)Quote:

I may be misreading, but the first question seems the same as the last. Either way, it was obviously created by the same person due to the server information. As to why, I'd say because some one is immature and can not let go of a personal grudge which may or may not have any basis in reality. Honestly I can't say I know one way or the other if his original reason for being mad is true or not, but honestly, after all this time, who cares? Is it really worth all the effort to bash and bad mouth some one because of it? Not in my opinion, and to top it off, he admitted to be STILL stealing files to this day, which just makes his whole rant all the more pointless.
yes yes.. you are coming close... your answers do make sense. you are a serious candidate of winning this competition. but im sure others will have other suggestions too... so stand by.....Quote:

Thanks for your explanation. this is indeed a DEEEEEEEEEEP answer... Lets see what the others have to say. Who knows it will be a check... or something else. I will keep it a secret until the competition is over and I can announce the winner!Quote:

no cheekychap, you are missing the point. you need to ANSWER the 2 questions to be able to play along. just go back to the competition, re-read the questions and try again.Quote:

a competition which not everyone can enter. since nobody know which site is right or wrong. but from the screenshot, AOM.net is under CHEEKYCHAP. so if its true, he definitely jealous/really angry to AOM and want to take it down. with dirty way. it just got reveal.
CHEEKYCHAP has certain point he make up, which still unknown (the truth). this competition's question is gonna directly change people mind. from doubt which site is legit, to agree AOM is original just because for the sake of prize. this is unfair
If I win can I pick my own prize? If so, I want an explanation for a ring in an orange (it wasn't a duplicate/substitute ring). :(
I dont think the question is which came first (aom or aomk) I think the question is why the fake aom site (artofmisdirection.net not aomk) registered on the same server as aomk.
thanks for your answer. i will count you in. and no... dont think that i want to influence people. i just want to challenge them to find answers to some questions. if you go to http://whois.domaintools.com/ and register for a free account,you can double check that the screen shot posted in this competition is REAL.Quote:

To scared to lose the power of being in charge of other users, and of no importance, as you bring nothing to the table
Keep ignoring the big question, its working well for you!
The fool created the substitute website in order to achieve a personal vendetta, not only by (thinking he will) steal your members' passwords using your own reputation, but also by trying to run your own name into the ground by (arguably) unethical practices once the members join the website in order to give them a bad idea about what the true AoM is (running his own donation scams that will benefit him but hurt your reputation). I'm sure on one side of things he's trying to destroy your reputation by stealing money and probably acting like an ass to people who join his "invite website", and yet on the other he's overwhelmed by it to the point that he masquerades as yourselves in order to achieve his own ends, realizing he can't win his little game if people know who he is (if his conduct here is any indicator, I'm sure you know best why he would be embarrassed to try and approach members himself).
Get that email address for recruitments known, and I'm sure this trick of his will work much less effectively.
Kinda answered both questions in one fell swoop. I'll love that hint. :happy:
what is this with you. i explained you 2 times that you need to answer both questions in order to join this competition. so please try again. you CAN do this cheeky. come on.. give it a try.Quote:

You'd be surprised how long that trick has troubled me. I'm usually fantastic at seeing through card tricks, palming, substitutions etc. but either that particular trick was really complex/great setup or my friend was in on it (it was his birthday party and he had no idea where we were going ... so doubtful).Quote:

cheekychap, you are really not getting this competition right. the question was not: WHY IS CHEEKYCHAP STILL POSTING MESSAGES. A) BECAUSE HE WANTS TO RECRUIT NEW PEOPLE FOR HIS SITE. B) BECAUSE MEMBERS CANT JOIN AOM SO THEY NEED TO SETTLE FOR YOU.Quote:

I don't think you get the fact that even if you do have more or better files, a lot of people like me would never join or contribute to a site where some one like you is heavily involved. You're childish behavior is not helping build your site or reputation. Even if there was bad blood in the past, let it go, it will only help you in the future if you can grasp this fact.Quote:

He's been pilfering from people for almost 2 years.
What are the true facts Jac are stated above with all your dirty tricks to kill off my site, and how AOM came about
You now sit in here moaning at me for doing the very thing you did 4 years ago, and still do today,
so why is it wrong when i do it, but ok for you to do it on my site??
Come on lets be honest here, and you admit that everything i said above is true, from you lot poaching users, taking files, and hacking my site no end of times to disrupt my user base from sharing????
even going as far as spewing porn all over the place, and posting every link i had on open forums
Tokeman if you cant trade i wouldnt want you niether as i said above many times, and its not as if you trade anyway
I see no childishness on AOMK do you??>?, or any arguments
Sorry you are not on it, or even aware of its location, so you are definately missing out
