OT: Bolivians -- This is your thread to request clemency.

Submitted by Billy Ray Valentine on

In the earlier Isaiah Hole CB thread, several Bolivians surfaced to make their case for clemency.  I posed the question in the Moderator Action Sticky whether a thread dedicated to clemency requests would be permitted.  One of our gracious moderators indicated that the thread would be allowed, and it also may be a good recipe for humor.

 

Humor is the hope here, especially self-depricating humor.   Plead your case.  Non-Bolivians should weigh-in either in support or against clemency.  Please do not get political.  And please, do not re-post the exact same material that led to your Banhammer, unless it is in the context of what not to write.

 

Assuming we can have nice things, a thread like this might be entertaining every few years.

 

One final note -- I hope the moderators see it in their heart to consider at least one, if not more, application for clemency, assuming the user shows true remorse and accountability without qualification.  

 

(fingers crossed on this one)

I was sent to Bolivia for starting a thread asking about Gatorade showers that our coaches have received after big wins. I think I did well until I suggested that in Brady Hokes case it may have been a hotdog water shower.

Bolivia is a quiet place...a place for reflection (I still think that post was funny)

I have actually had a couple conversations with the person responsible for that account on Twitter, even asked them to come back and do a followup "How are you?" sort of thread, but they declined.

Shame, as his outing was probably one of the best days this place as ever known. We all had so much fun with that.

Interesting finding this thread so late, after everyone has gotten their points back, so I can't tell who was actually trying to come back from Bolivia

However I do not enjoy my current MGoID. Times have changed. Certainly, identity changes are to be discouraged but is it possible for me to formally request an approved ID conversion while maintaining my account? That's what I wanna know.

And I have indeed visited Bolivia, the country, but the food is much better in Peru, a nation I have visited several times recently. My secondary request is to be banished there should I forfeit my MGoPrivileges.

Red's (Shawshank Redemption) response: 1967 Parole Hearings Man: Ellis Boyd Redding, your files say you've served 40 years of a life sentence. Do you feel you've been rehabilitated? Red: Rehabilitated? Well, now let me see. You know, I don't have any idea what that means. 1967 Parole Hearings Man: Well, it means that you're ready to rejoin society... Red: I know what you think it means, sonny. To me, it's just a made up word. A politician's word, so young fellas like yourself can wear a suit and a tie, and have a job. What do you really want to know? Am I sorry for what I did?

another MGoUser double-posted a rather nasty thread about a player just completing his career

The redundant threads read

  • Kyle Kalis
  • Kyle Kalis
So in a devil-may-care moment, I posted a thread that I expected to last all of five minutes in which I requested the Moms to delete
  • Does whatever a Kyle Kalis Does
The butt of my post was the nasty double-posting. 
 
In the morning, I found myself in Bolivia.
