I'm very similar. Whenever I look back on things I said yesterday I regret it

Exactly. Clearly those comparisons do a disservice to Luffty

Ill tell you this, it's not a great feeling being reminded of something that genuinely makes you ashamed of yourself. Would appreciate if this thread could be left to go back to 2005 where it belongs.

Sorry Nicko, just having a laugh, bud.

We've all done things we weren't proud of when we were younger.

Got in my fair share at that age but never started any, always self defence or defending friends or strangers

Nick was a bit of a Fergo in his Raider69 days. Loose unit but the forum was better for having him around.

King hit :lol:

He was living in Brisbane for a while. He was the first GHer I ever met in person. Then he moved back to Sydney. A short time later he stopped posting. He was a good bloke.

Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.

Nope, Reptar brilliant deduced my off-line identity from a couple of cryptic references to my past. The man is a genius.

Good looking chap, too.

GE is confidentiality and discretion personified. He would die, even under torture, before revealing a personal Facebook page.

GE really is the definition of mystery. I've attended three matches with him personally, he's even picked me up in his car several times and driven me from Canberra to Sydney once and I STILL haven't seen his face!!

spent yesterday talking to the chick im keen on, me, her and few others had a few drinks, she rang her ex up to see if he was gonna pick her up, he said no (they were gonna talk about some things) instead he was gonna let her walk home at 12am by herself, so i abused him, he eventually came to get her but by that time she didnt want to go with him, i asked him to leave, he wouldnt so i king hit him, my mates pulled us apart and he finally **** off, she was gonna walk home by herself but i said **** that and walked her home, got a kiss too which made things a little better

she rang me this morning and we talked for awhile and she said she didnt know what she was gonna do which was bad, then watched a disheartening raiders display and now got a message that this chick is going around her ex's house to talk so its all up in air and im not liking it at all! :x

Absolute dog act. Your avatar and user name should be changed to Joel M. :nooo :nooo

Im not sure whats worse:

- king hitting someone
- the fact you still needed to tussell after your free hit
- the fact you posted your digusting and cowardly actions online
- or that you thought getting a kiss made everything better? gee she must be a catch.

Its such a cowardly and pissweak thing to do, no matter what the timeframe...

Defending such actions doesnt place you much higher in the tank...
