Attn. K-ZONE people.......
Just in case you were wondering why "Highway Star" is not posting over on K-Zone anymore.....
.........it seems that one of the moderators (BigKahuna, most likely) did something to my account that causes it to have tons of errors and huge wait times to access the board. It will also not take any new posts....well, it says it does, but they they don't display. Since the board usually runs like crap anyway, it took me a little while to figure it out. There isn't anything wrong with my computer. If I log out from the board it runs fine, there's not anything actually wrong......seemly they just have this feature to screw with people. I'm quite sure that this is what happened to "the disembowler".....they didn't actually ban him, they just made it so he couldn't post anymore.
K-Zone is not a well run message board. They don't play by any rules aside from their own, that they make up on the spot and enforce at their own whims. They don't regulate harrassment of members, except when they feel like it. They have a stated policy of not allowing alias's, yet they let them run wild and harrass other members. They allow dodging of the swear filter, and encourage massive flame wars. If they want to run an unmoderated board, do the right way, like TGR does here........at least they are relatively fair and honest about it. K-Zone is like some middle-school club. I thought I was playing by their rules, but at some point somebody decided to change those rules........
I have no problems with moderated boards, I have been an active poster on epicski for 2-1/2 years, and have managed to not get banned, because I play by the rules. This situation is particularly insulting to me because K-Zone is supposedly some sort of business, and that my posting, wild as it is, has brought them enhanced traffic.
K-zone also has a relationship with Killington, where representives from the mountain post on the board in a specific forum. I think it makes Killington look bad to have an authorized forum on a message board where other people are posting attacks and vulgarity, unmoderated. As someone who was constantly attacked, I had no choice but to counter attack when moderators would not step in. Now that the moderators have gone against me, I will go against them and raise this issue with the new Killington owners. It's highly unprofessional that they have an offical involvement with a message board that is so poorly run and offensive. It makes them look bad.
K-zone should clean up it's act, or Killington may have to drop it's involvement.
EDIT:
Apparently, the technical issue or block has been resolved or removed. I got a generic PM notification in my email.......there was no new PM, but now my account works. Thanks guys for letting me back in!!!! I promise to be a nicer and less annoying guy in the future, but I would also hope that some people would stop provoking me as much.
Thanks!!!!!Last edited by Damian Sanders; 05-10-2007 at 10:15 AM.

i doubt your story is true, especially the bigkahuna13 part - HS is probably blaming his own problems on BK13. frankly, i'd be very surprised if anyone there, especially bk13, pulled the trigger on highway star.
now, at least one of the powers that be at k-zone loves his power trips and shouldn't be a moderator.. if anyone did anything to HS, it was him. but he hasn't been publicly involved in HS affairs, so I doubt it. (i'm otherwise not going there.)
anyway, what you're talking about is analogous to frozen doing the same to dankhucker. in fact, frozen did to similar things to highway star - took away a bunch of privileges.
true or not, good riddance. i'm glad he's gone. fuck that guy, he's little more than a pain in the ass.

PS - what the fuck are you posting this here for? (because you're a pussy, that's why.)
be a man and post it on K-zone. i'm sure they won't delete it - it's not their style.

Poor baby, one less sandbox to play in now.
No one cares.Since then it's been a book you read in reverse, so you understand less as the pages turn.

I cant believe I know what that is from. I took a bullshit Science Fiction films class in college (Im not a trekkie or a movie buff...I thought it would be a cake class) and the instructor made us memorize pretty much every word of every movie we watched. This quote was the first question on the final.

Was this one on the final? (I used google to find the whole quote. No cheating now...)
"I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams … glitter in the dark near Tanhauser Gate. All those … moments will be lost … in time, like tears … in rain. Time … to die..."

No only the fucking quote in some nonexistent language that I could barely make out due to background noise. Some other quotes though from The Blob and The Thing and 2001 Space Odyssey

Stop yer whining, take a pamprin, and get over it.
They don't like you, they're not interested in what you have to say anymore, and they don't want you.
PAMPRIN® is more than pain relief, it's period relief.
Specially formulated to relieve menstrual discomfort including headache, backache, cramps, irritability, water weight gain and premenstrual tension. PAMPRIN contains a clinically proven pain reliever plus ingredients that relieve the discomfort of bloating and menstrual tension. Relief you simply can't get from ordinary pain relievers.
Choose from PAMPRIN All Day caplets for 12 hours of relief, PAMPRIN Cramp caplets which contain not one, but two proven pain relievers, or PAMPRIN Multi-Symptom caplets.I'm just a simple girl trying to make my way in the universe...
I come up hard, baby but now I'm cool I didn't make it, sugar playin' by the rules
If you know your history, then you would know where you coming from, then you wouldn't have to ask me, who the heck do I think I am.

You were my inspiration for my earlier post"Oh, no pics. To simulate the skiing today, walk out your door, grab a handful of snow, and throw it in your face. Repeat as necessary.
