I am a beginner here at FTR, and while I was picking through the forum, I came across a thread that Riptyde posted in and it said "post removed"- so I thought it was a flame at someone or something dreadful.
But after a few more of these I realized every post was removed...
What did he do to get this punishment?? And what is the point of removing these potentially helping posts so beginners like me can't look at his advice?
I apoligize if me just bringing this up is against the rules, but I am really curious.

Why? Was there a fight between him and one of the admins? Or did he all of a sudden one day just say "hey I quit remove my posts" ??

he tried to black mail one of the admins becuase he had photos of one of them engaging in a lewd act with a woman that was not their wife.
Having none of it, the admins decided to sue Rippy for slander. As per terms of the out of court settlement, all of rippy's posts were removed from the site.

I don't miss him at all
besides the fact that he was an ass, he played MTTs like a retarded rheesus monkey on dexedrin and he couldn't handle people flaming his style so he got himself banned

Ah. I always knew something seemed a little off with his MTT strategy guide.

I always thought the guy was a little... out there... even in his poker thinking, but is this serious?

I thought it was a lame joke by DoGGz at first, but it turned out pretty hilarious.
Edit: This one is even better
