WANT OUT OF BOLIVIA? READ THIS!

I can make a thread advertising my expertise?

"Do you want your own Grand Canyon? Need to clear 8 square miles in New York City for your retirement home? Got the critical mass of weapons-grade uranium but don't know how to control the detonation? Better call MGoNukeE!"

Can I request a former account be unbanned?

mayhaps a suggestion? how about for those on probation, other users don't have to sacrifice an mgopoint to downvote? that should either be a) really easy to implement or b) will crash the new server.

Venezuela has no extradition treaty with the United States. Be wary of what diner's club you sign up for.

Angry MGoBloggers must be making a positive impact on the landlocked country. Recently, Uruguay offered Bolivia access to the Atlantic, and Peru passed a bill which grants Bolivia access to the Pacific along with rights to a beach. Rogue fans will be livin' it up in Bolivia soon. (IBTimes Link)

 

I thought the first rule of Mgopoints was we don't talk about Mgopoints.  Now here's multiple threads about Mgopoints.

Your real challenge.  You can't be Matt Damon in that one lawyer movie that was OK but kind of sucked without representing M-Wolverine.  If you need points, I will use mine as collateral.

He started most of the game threads.  He argued with many, but always had a logical reason for doing so.  He made me and others think about different points of view.  His great failure was constantly countering Brian in his despair of this lost season.  I would bet even the mods have some sympathy for this trial.

The rest will be freed eventually.  The case of M-Wolverine allows you to bring a poster back from the dead.

Do you have a list of those who have died?

I suppose the list could be subdivided:

1. Those who were whacked (mwolverine, etc.)
2. Those who committed suicide (removed their own account. Is this possible?)
3. Those who went quiet into the long night and just faded away. Maybe technically still there, but just gone, and haven't visited the site forever.

There is obviously a special set of people who have massively negative point totals, but is there a way to differentiate between some of the people who have -500 or -1000? 

I guess I'm just curious who got a couple/few thousand points knocked off at once, and who earned their negative totals "the hard way"

What was that kid's name...Mr.Mario86 or something.  Let's bring him back.  There was nothing better than the weekly, over the top meltdown he would have whenever someone would correct him or show even the slightest sign of disagreeing with one of his points.  Entertaining stuff.  God was that kid ever in the middle of the rough and awkward stage of puberty where everyone is out to get ya.

I'm too old to understand the meaning of any of this.

We Are The Borg come back and join us. After all this is a Michigan blog.

Could I make a plea to come back or am I too fargone? I know I have had my differences on here. At the end of season I was too grumpy from being a perma resident of Bolivia.

Time with mgoblog: Since the Haloscan days aka around 2005

As a long tenured member I have a history with this site. I bring unique perspective especially with hockey. I feel with my perma-Bolivia residence I have come to a cross roads. I realize I have trolled in the past, especially specific members who I personally disagree with their direction of the MMB and the athletic department. I understand it is ok to have differing opinions. 

As penance of my probation I am willing to do the following:

• pen an apology to those I have wronged
• change my avatar to that of a mod choosing
• allow a public vote for a new signature
• stick to posting of cute cat pictures, especially on days of Michigan loses
• collaborating with mgoMods and my MGoLegal Rep (already talk with LSAClassof2000

 

Bolivia. It's a magical place.  - MgoCoulson

I missed the bolivian appeals process. When you think about it, it's pretty cool. Folks got banished and an ad hoc process grew up to allow them to make amends and be rehahiblitated. If only the legal system was so effecting and efficient. 

Hats off to PGB!

It looks like there are two MGoPeople that want out of Bolivia. (so far)

Both of them appear sincere. Those in Bolivia not stating their case appear not to give two effs. So, eff them; I like this blog.

That said, my MGoThought is to allow Professor X (aka GhostofBorges) first crack at the process. He's reached out to LSAClassof2000 and does want to get back in the MGoSociety.

JimBob has made a recent cry for points help and also appears to want to come back. Makes sense to put his case in a file for further consideration.

Looking forward to open hearings in this process. After all, I hear the MGoJury recently was given a voting process.

Why u mad bro?

Anyone can flame out from time to time, especially in seasons like this one.  Show some remorse, restraint, and humility, and a second chance is in order. 

The downvote system is back and poised to help warn posters if they should teeter on the brink again.

I lost 12,000 points from ACE for a very insensitive innuendo I made regarding a contributor from Eleven Warriors.  Ace was new to the Blog and took the opportunity to make a name for himself and justifiably so.  Although in poor taste it was a simple implication that although lacking in tact was clever if not regrettable.  In any event much greater travesties have gone unpunished on the board.

Considering my entire body of work and contributions in good standing outside of this single instance I am hoping you will take my case and help return my 12,000 points for time served.

I appreciate your consideration,
