    I was wrong. On rereading it, you weren't a complete douchebag, but you maybe only a partial douchebag. : )

    And you are right, I should have provided a link...which is what I've been looking for and reading.

    And the thread was back in November about Fightbeat Introduces Our new Television schedule.

    And the link is: http://fightbeat.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21104

    Here is part of your reply:

    "What you do have (right now) is what any dipshit with a Sunday newspaper can find on the weekly schedule. yee haw."

    with that kind of response you expect me to be nice?
    calling it worthless?

    Yeah, I'm a douche :nono:

    I think it's fair to say that you are taking that sentence out of context. My full reply was:

    " The set up isn't without hope and there's plenty to like, but

    it's pretty worthless as it is.

    There aren't channels listed and it's supposed to be a 'tv boxing schedule'.

    You don't have any of the odd ball fight cards listed that get replayed on MSG, SUN, MASN, and the other various minor sports channels.

    You don't have Fox Sports Espanol.

    You don't have TyC.

    You don't have Telemundo (maybe you do?).

    And then you list some fights that aren't even going to be televised, at least to my knowledge.

    What you do have (right now) is what any dipshit with a Sunday newspaper can find on the weekly schedule. yee haw.

    In other words, there's nothing here that remotely challenges Marty's schedule. The niche that is available is letting fans know what is available to watch on tv, not what is upcoming live and on the main channels. Marty's schedule just does too good of a job with that, already."

    The dipshit comment refers to everyone collectively, which includes mE. As I said then, and would still say today. yee haw.

    The criticism is constructive and I still don't read that part you have an issue with as being directed at you. Maybe others will see it your way. I have a feeling Explosivo will.

    I hope you don't mind me asking, but what do you do for a living MikE? I'll explain when I get your answer.

    Database design is where I am competent. My programming is weak, but I can do some sql. I get help from the local high school super geeks when I need it.

    The reason I mention it is because if you do program, then you of all people should know how sensitive a person can be when you create something. I used to program and I know the amount of hours and dedication it takes to create something. Add to the fact that nobody is paying you and it really hurts when you call something useless or crap. I'm not saying that's what you intended, nor did I create the program. But your tone throughout your posts was of negativity, and then bringing up Max Boxing, a site that we have a history of fighting with, just makes matters worse.

    So I hope you understand. It wasn't meant to insult you, rather protect what we were creating.

    I can't believe you are even debating with miKe...

    The fact remains that he has done nothing for this site... And he has something shitty to say about it??

    Gotcha. That makes more sense and I apologize if my comments seemed aimed at someone's effort. I was trying to focus on what information could be added to improve the schedule, not its underlying programming or aesthetics.

    Didn't know of any Maxboxing angle between the sites.

    And my negative tone is part of my charm, but I'm working on it. :cheer::cheer::cheer::cheer::cheer::cheer::cheer::cheer::cheer:

    Better?

    I apologize also for jumping all over you on it. Thanks for the comments. Hopefully when we build the new one we can implement more of your suggestions.

    as far as max boxing, it had to do with a lawsuit and them stealing our videographer. Recently I told Steve Kim to go fuck himself and stop stealing our ideas.

    I'm not a youtube fan because it's very limiting on file size and time. Plus it's damn slow

    As I said, your biggest problem is and always has been ego and the inability to see the forest because of the trees. I can't tell you how many times the guys you've held in such esteem asked me to write and contribute and the repeated refusal on my end always circled around to one constant variable. Care to take a guess at who that was?

    You should be proud of what you've built as well as frightfully ashamed at the talent you've let walk away. It takes a big man to admit to mistakes and when he's been wrong. Seeing that you're barely scraping 5'5", I can see how this poses a challenge for you. Regardless, I wish you the best.

    So fucking what if you don't write here. Someone who can write but doesn't simply proves how fucking useless you are. Go fuck yourself loser.

    actually the fact is, I've got as much/more inside info on this than anyone in this thread so far besides Kenneth.

    Musze sentiments have been repeated by every former member of staff that is now gone, which i have heard in person.

    For years ive had beef with you, solely because of your decisions/behaviors. It has never and will never be because I have something against you. You were nice to me, and if you ever come near LA/SD and find a way to contact me you are welcome in my home for the same good will you gave me.

    This board stuff, is something outside that realm. If something is wrong I say it, and if something fowl is going on I say something as well. I'd have your back if I agreed with you, or if you showed loyalty to me in the past.

    Instead you let people like Karl back on with flying colors after he bashed this site, and alienate good people like Jake by shitting on boxingscene while he was still here. I just dont understand why, and never have...
