This is a bit of BS. I borrowed 500 from Mannerboy - who I Taught HOW TO PLAY, and who has made what 30k or so since i staked him his first $150. I didn't ask him for it, btw, he insisted that I shouldn't have to rebuild.
He got impatient, I got pissy. But we're fine now.
I'm no Radashack. Ive never asked anyone for a cent. Mannerboy insisted that he help me - when he was oozing money from every pore. I took it. IT was a mistake because the problem was in my mentality, not my br. We're fine now. We did have a pissing contest a while back, however.
If i'm not wanted on FTR, I'll leave.
(Rada was a good guy, however. He helped me to alot of final MTT tables. I gave him, what? $1000 or more in tips for helping me. I never asked for a cent back. And I will say that everyone who loaned him money was an adult who could make decisions for themselves. Loaning a stranger who plays poker money - and not getting it back - is like pissing in your boot and complaining that your sock smells funny. What did they think would happen.)
I thought the poll thing was fun and games. Evidently there's an issue with some of you. I'll have mannerboy comment on this thread. If he says there's an issue, then I'll leave FTR until he says otherwise.
I'm glad you found this thread and spoke up, aok. I certainly hope you don't go anywhere.
people are assholes
Seriously, people. Rather than making public declarations of someone else's private matters based on hearsay, why don't you ask the person yourself in private?
Whatever you guys are up to, it's got to stop here.
Am I in Grade 3 again?? I love your posts AOK...and I know I am not the only one...
seems fair.Quote:

Aoks posts have been some of the most helpful I have ever read on FTR (or anywhere else for that matter) and it would be a huge waste if some of you guys, who lets face it, dont actually know anything about the situation, forced him to leave.
Yes, I am a noob around here, but after spending the last month enjoying every detail of AOK’s posts, I am shocked by this development. Everybody here has so much to gain from AOK and everything to lose if his tremendous experience and insightful writings are no longer part of FTR. AOK represents everything that is so great about FTR, I can’t wait to buy his book, I intend to model my future play on his system. I am currently just a home game player (5 kids = 0 BR for now), but my poker knowledge and skills have improved tremendously due to AOK (and everybody else here!!)
Thank you, AOK!
All fair. This is what happened, it was quite a while ago.
Mannerboy came to irc and pasted an e-mail from aokrongly saying roughly "dont worry about when you will get your $500 back, you won't"
In Mannerboy's defense, he never wanted to make much of this.
Not even expose aokrongly in public, but some of us told him to.
I, personally, did not want a thief to go on unexposed.
If they solved it, that's fine. However, the last time I spoke to Mannerboy he was still upset about this. That was a couple of weeks ago though, so we'll see as soon as he replies in here and then we can drop this.
Words have the power to both destroy and heal. When words are both true and kind, they can change our world.

Guys..... get real.....there is no issue.....
Good then, but you started all of this and we were just standing up for you. Since you didn't update us on what was going on how were we supposed to know it was solved?
:lock:
Nothing change ... just because i dont care doesnt mean i dont understand ...
These threads are getting lamer and lamer.
Buying TimV's debt, Why does everyone hate aok...
Xianti, I need to be able to ban people from my forum.

lol its mannerboys call but its a stupid one.
I prefer to talk about this with aok in private...
Guess / hope he will pay me .... one day...
LOCKED
i still think he's a valuable member.. obviously the stealing part sucks, and well.. i guess i wont be lending him money, not that i was likely to anyway.. but thats a wealth of knowledge your pushing out there if he leaves.
and mannerboy doesnt seem to be too worried about it, though i personally wouldnt have liked it if there was a previous agreement that the money would get back to him
Ofc I only bring matters to the public to facilitate my debt collection. If that does not work then I try to contact the person privately, then I have to go find them, in person...
Aok is a ok with me.
This is between Mannerboy and aokrongly and should be handled in private. Everyone else, STFU.
