I wouldn't be here either LMFAO

I would have been permanently banned and never had the opportunity to take the reigns. But to clarify...I never banned or kicked anyone out for any board/site violations, in fact, I've never even issued a "WARNING" lol to anyone since I took over here, however when one of my initial moderators was involved in a situation over at the "Breakballs Room" and got banned over there, that turned into a situation that warranted my banning their mods, but I rescinded that after a couple months.
So the "TRASH" left on their own accord and removed themselves for the most part and birdbrain left before that even transpired. They can't handle criticism ya know (lol) much less strong opinionated people (like themselves) whose opinions vastly differ from and challenge theirs (ME). Do you really think they would have stuck around here and had the balls to challenge and debate me on a plethora of disagreements without having total control of the mute, warning, and ban buttons (short answer: F**K NO) I even left them alone for a while at first trying to bait them into sticking around so I'd get an opportunity to call them out, and debate Birdbrains obvious personal issues with member(s) of the band that has led him on his anti Todd kick and trash talk on everything from the bands set list, Todd's vocals, choice of tour venues and tour itinerary, and every other god damn thing hoping to get a good FAIR 10 rounder in without getting muted after the first round and banned like I was when initially suspended here and then ultimately banned over there.
FACT: Anyone who has ever debated, strongly and vocally criticized or called them out on any of their soap box rants and opinions are in a group classified as "former members" of whichever particular site they have been involved with. but yet they can openly criticize anything they want under of the guise of "They have a right and a freedom of opinion" yeah well so does everybody the f**K else. Which is why, if I choose to do so, I can dissect, criticize and tear their site and their opinions a new ass. I just can't do it from there cause I'm not allowed to, but I'm allowed to here and nobody can stop me. In fact I ought to merge this shit into one topic and do exactly that so that anybody who can't call out their bullshit over there can at least do so here, without repercussion of course.
A little history. Help me out on the time frames if anyone here remembers, I don't feel like doing the research at the moment. The breakballs room closed after stating they had served their purpose of helping get rid of Tate (through the same tactics currently being used to try and diminish Todd currently IMO) and I speculate birdbrain had a little assistance in shutting that site down due to his involvement in the legal process with the whole band vs Tate situation.
Then came the "Open Road" a site that was started after the "breakballs room' had shut down (but prior to this site forming) that site was ran and moderated by, if my memory serves me correct Grappler, Shadow Walker and Grendelsan with a heavy presence and influence asserted by Birdbrain and the misses- however they stayed in the background , if you will (I believe a forced lower profile-due again to the legal issues at the time IMO) that site if memory serves me, quickly and abruptly closed and ceased operations without a lot of warning or heads up and none of the material there was ever archived and there isn't much of a trace of it (many speculations as to why this happened) which could be another whole topic for discussion.
Then this site rose from the ashes of "The Open Road", This site began under the operation of RTM along with Grappler and Shadow Walker (I believe it was) and had a heavy presence of birdbrain and the misses and no one was allowed to call them out or negatively question anything they had to say without repercussions from the mods, some of which is archived right here in the "State of the band and brand thread and I believe at least one other thread on here if you read through the older Queensryche threads. This site was off and running and shortly thereafter the breakballs room announced a reopening and this site was slated to run out its contract with the server and be closed. That's when I jumped in and approached the rights and contract holder to take the site over back in August of last year and then took the reigns in September (2015).
