I am officially retired from EE. You pour your heart out, and whaddya get? This:

Member Comment by modus_operandi on 29/08/10 03:30 PM
baldrick,

While EE is taking a pretty lenient line on Blogs, it is still not a near free-for-all as in the Lounge.  While you have pretty wide latitude in your blog, you still must adhere to the minimum requirements of the EE Terms of Use (http://www.experts-exchange.com/termsOfUse.jsp).

On that basis, Vee_Mod deleted two of your blog entries:

http://www.expe...rick/B_2933-This-post-sucks.html
http://www.expe...national-Fiveskin-Challenge.html

Both of those entries ran afoul of the ToU's prohibition on offensive and/or profane language.

In addition, while your remaining blog entry, http://www.expe...logs/baldrick/B_2937-Pay-Up.html, is not in and of itself offensive, two of the tags you used ("wankers" and "arseholes") are similarly offensive/profane, and thus I have edited those tags.

In the future, please keep your blog entries clean, and save your "colorful metaphors" for the Lounge.  A basic rule of thumb: don't post something in a blog if it's not "safe for work".

Damn stupid site doesn't even allow you to respond to "member comments". Shame, I was gonna tell 'em that I worked in a knocking shop.

Wankers.

arseholes.

From: Send Carobit Mail mac On: 2010/08/30 10:17:45
thank DOG for Carobit!!!

From: Send Carobit Mail Huntress On: 2010/08/30 15:54:06
I'll second that emotion!

From: Send Carobit Mail coral47 On: 2010/08/30 22:44:32
ROFLMAO

From: Baldrick On: 2010/09/01 05:29:15
Looks like I was talking shit about retiring. Sorry 'bout that. I think I'm gonna try and get banned from TOS instead. Anyone wanna start a wager on how long it will take?

Clicky linkies please, keep the cache alive, if you believe in stickin' it to da man.

From: Send Carobit Mail coral47 On: 2010/09/01 23:31:07
Dude, you are seriously warped. 
Funny, but warped. : D

From: Send Carobit Mail StoneG On: 2010/09/02 08:17:42
:-D

Classic baldrick!
Thanks for keeping the piss boiling in the kettle.

From: Baldrick On: 2010/09/07 13:48:07
Six days. A bit longer than I expected.

Your account has been suspended. Please contact suspensions@experts-exchange.com for further information.

Yet the latest blog post is still there... How bizarre

From: Send Carobit Mail coral47 On: 2010/09/07 21:19:10
so how long did they tag you for?

but more importantly, now what are you going to do for fun?

From: Baldrick On: 2010/09/08 04:17:34
Dunno how long I'm tagged for, and I can't say I really care.

It's only crappy EE after all (and since you need premium / freemium to even ask a question, it really is utter crap). Stackoverflow.com blows it out of the water as a technical resource.

Better to burn out than to fade away...

Although I might have to find another home for my blog...

From: Send Carobit Mail coral47 On: 2010/09/08 08:14:31
>> Better to burn out than to fade away...

I can't argue with that.    ; )

From: Send Carobit Mail Pino Carafa On: 2010/10/11 03:09:16
Pathetic :-(

From: Baldrick On: 2010/10/15 01:37:36
Ah well. Seeing as EE is of no use whatsoever unless you either pay up or earn premium (you can't even *ask* questions without premium - WTF?!?!?), it's not exactly the greatest loss to me if I'm booted out. To be fair, I got what I wanted, and managed to be incredibly annoying to the moderation team - spoiling their blog with my bullshit. I'm just sad that the world has lost my valuable research on lateral thinking, the common cold, probability of conception, and of course the international fiveskin challenge...

Hey my warm fuzzies man - I am officially retired from EE too! x0x0x0x

Skype of YIM me so that we can catch up on a few years - sing me another song too! Let's have a beer-o-clock together too (like the old daze)

From: Send Carobit Mail mac On: 2010/10/28 09:37:29
bev,
so which coast are you on?  the east or the best?

From: Send Carobit Mail Pino Carafa On: 2010/10/28 14:58:04
Just when I thought things were improving a little over yonder XD

From: Send Carobit Mail shekerra On: 2010/10/28 18:20:22
I am back home Mac and loving it - WEST all the way. Cheers!

From: Send Carobit Mail cleopatrark On: 2010/12/01 01:10:03
So here is where you all are hanging out.  Missed my EEBday also the 8 year anniversary of Flakes death.  Glad I found you all.

From: Send Carobit Mail Pino Carafa On: 2010/12/01 01:48:33
Blimey, is that 8 years already!?!?!

From: Daydreams On: 2010/12/01 09:35:27
Hello all.. just dropping in to say hi and mention that I have a protest thread over at ee. Also.. happy bd cleo!

Free baldrick!!

From: knightEknight On: 2010/12/01 10:21:48
ping!  (well, not really.)

From: Send Carobit Mail StoneG On: 2010/12/01 10:25:40
Last I heard Baldrick was expensive.

What does the free version do?

From: Send Carobit Mail Huntress On: 2010/12/01 10:30:41
>>What does the free version do?

Mostly just cause trouble and talk bollocks and occasionally does a random format but otherwise it's pretty unstable and can't be trusted on your system.  [tongue]

From: Daydreams On: 2010/12/01 10:37:02
Hey Huntress do you ever hear from Roy (from ert)?

From: Send Carobit Mail StoneG On: 2010/12/01 10:44:22
Huntress>
Sounds just like the expensive version.

It's taken years to get that version removed from my computer.  grin

From: Send Carobit Mail Huntress On: 2010/12/01 10:47:46
Dd>
I've tried all channels and have heard nothing in over two years which has given me cause for great concern.

StoneG>
You too?  laughing

From: Send Carobit Mail Pino Carafa On: 2010/12/01 12:48:51
remind me, who is Roy?

From: Send Carobit Mail Huntress On: 2010/12/01 12:52:05
Cd&

From: Send Carobit Mail Pino Carafa On: 2010/12/01 12:53:17
Oh yeah. wow. 2 years and nobody has heard from him? That IS worrying.

From: Send Carobit Mail Huntress On: 2010/12/01 12:56:02
Yeah and I've written to every addy I've ever had for him too.  Now I wish I had gotten his phone number when muso and I met up with him in Wndsor.  [sad]

From: Send Carobit Mail cleopatrark On: 2010/12/01 14:52:46
That does seem odd, hope nothing has happened to him.

From: Send Carobit Mail StoneG On: 2010/12/01 18:07:27
For no reason that I can put my finger on, I think he just decided to sever all ties and do the anonymous thing.

It happens.

From: Daydreams On: 2010/12/01 19:32:58
Roy was getting on in years. He may have left for good. I'll always admire him. I may not have agreed with everything he said or even his method of saying it sometimes, but I admire a smart man who stands up for what he believes in.

From: Send Carobit Mail Huntress On: 2010/12/01 19:38:42
And that's what we'll all always remember about him too.  I hope he knows he's missed.

From: Send Carobit Mail Pino Carafa On: 2010/12/02 01:35:48
:-)

From: Send Carobit Mail shekerra On: 2010/12/14 03:54:17
Bladderick, come out, come out - wherever you are, because I am looking for you! Warm fuzzies and all the other fluff I used to toss your way x0x00x

Greetings from TOS where the lizards are celebrating baldrick's 12th EE birthday; which seems odd because he's not there! http://www.expe...com/Other/Lounge/Q_26937232.html

You are legend dear balders, and I, for one, miss you. Maybe you can sneak in and say hi at our little get-together. Anyway.. the cry rises like smoke above the haughty spires of the EE rooftops like plumes of smoke..

Free baldrick! Free baldrick! (or at least a discount lol)
