kcb, that was VERY MUCH uncalled for. if you have issues with derk, feel free to address them with him via PM or other means.

i don't know the whole story, but it's getting looked into now. i hope that there's some kind of good reason for this picture being ok, but honestly, i can't really even imagine one.

Haha, I was just joking around. Someone got butt hurt.

Whatever, you treat BTP as your own little sandbox and pick and choose whom to kick based on your emotions. I haven't been the only one.

Also, I've never "trolled" you. I just told you not to be an asshole, because I didn't want to deal with your elitist attitude. People in that channel know what I'm talking about. You throw a hissy fit when people ask any question at all.

"Wahh, wahh, someone posted a picture of a caveman.. I'm such an adult that I got my feelings hurt.."

You insecure little girl.

Haha, and he removed the picture!

That's glorious.

What a sad day.

Derk is probably second to Iceman in the amount of money he has directly helped fellow BTP'ers make in the last few months. His casino thread involved many many hours of work, his and mine (but mostly his). From the posts in that thread by people that followed Derk's formula, a very conservative estimate would have people making in the neighborhood of $30,000 in the last 3 months. With the exception of Iceman (and tetsuo) who host this forum, can anyone else make that claim, that their advice made that much for members of this forum so quickly?

kcb, you are a tool. That photo is indefensable. It is nothing but an unjustifyable personal attack. kcb, you got off to a rough start when you first got to this forum (I beleive you called it "sub-par"). Then, you made a number of helpful contributions, in the forums and in the irc channel, even if you possess social skills that are not exactly consistent with what one would expect in a civil society. Now this? Much of your macho bravado was tolerable, but this was too much, too far, and, at least for me, the final straw.

The Internet is serious business.

And for the record, I always gave credit where it was due. A few times in the last couple days I've mentioned "Thanks to Derk's Casino thread, I was able to keep my bankroll afloat", etc, etc. I never denied that he has helped this forum out.

Personally, I have felt like Derk has went out of his way a few times to get under my skin. The only thing I ever asked of him was not to be an asshole over me asking a few questions. I wouldn't be asking if I reall didn't want to know. But posting those pictures wasn't even out of malice. I was just messing around and didn't even have any of that on my mind, as it happened months ago.

The bottomline is, Derk can dish it out, but apparently he can't take it. I don't think I'm really meant for this place, because I don't do well walking on egg shells. Little petty shit is considered trolling, because apparently this place is populated by weeping vaginas. Jesus, even most women wouldn't be this sensitive.

But whatever, yeah, I'm gone. I think I've said all that I need to say.

So is BTP the highest concentration of jews ever or what?

Jews and lawyers, yes.

Seem to be a lot of poker players here, too.
