Michael Pendragon explains his editorial philosophy

[George J. Dance]

Michael Pendragon explains his editorial philosophy

(or, how Jim got into AYoS)

"You divide everyone into two categories: potential allies and potential
adversaries. You slurp the writings of your potential allies and attack
those of your potential adversaries."

"When Jim is seen as a potential ally, you request his poetry. When he
is seen as an adversary, you assign a childish name to him and claim he
can't write."

This is really a new low for you.

[Ash Wurthing]

Did George misrepresent something said. No surprise there, with his fixation on propaganda, it isn't surprising that he went down that slippery slope. Plus he didn't follow his own T4T philosophy- so much for principles. But it's like Zod put it: "What do you expect from a control freak on an ego trip?"

[Michael Pendragon]

It's a big surprise for me. George has never (to my recollection) re-edited someone else's statement and opened a new thread using the falsified statements to slander them.

I don't even think the Donkey and his Stink have stooped to that level.

[ME]

That is blatant sarcasm, right, Michael??

[Michael Pendragon]

Sadly, it is not.

Will Donkey and his Stink are basically pond scum on legs. And the Donkey post-edits everyone as a matter of course.

But the Donkey has never taken his post-edited quotes, and used them to open a new thread in which he uses them to slander another writer, editor, or publisher's professional reputation.

That is what Dance did.

This thread is an attack upon my integrity as an editor/publisher *and* uses a falsified statement from me as an alleged confession of unprofessional conduct.

The Donkey and his Stink have never taken their nonsense into the real world. Dance has.

And IMHO he is reprehensible beyond words.

[Will Dockery]

Actually, your falsified quotes of Ahmos Zu-Bolton are just what you're now whining about, Pendragon, you hypocritical little shit spewing monkey.

HTH and HAND.

No, Donkey. Those are obviously jokes.

This thread is an attempt to slander my reputation as an editor/publisher.

Your friend crossed over a line that should not be crossed here.

I guess my arm-chair psychoanalysis of his condition pushed him over the brink.

While Michael Pendragon does what Michael Pendragon does.

For example, Michael Pendragon has been posting false quotes attributed to the poet and publisher Ahmos Zu-Bolton and myself, among others, for starters.

Michael Pendragon was even caught forging posts attributed to George Dance a couple of years ago.

HTH and HAND.

[Spam-I-Am]

Michael doesn’t take his “nonsense” into the “real world”. George does.

[Will Dockery]

When did George Dance do that?

[Spam-I-Am]

When is not important. It’s simply a fact that he does.

[Will Dockery]

How so?

Yeah, keep repeating that, perhaps eventually your misrepresentations will be considered truth.

[Michael Pendragon]

They are neither, Donkey.

No one would ever believe that Zu-Bolton commented on your smell, or that it was published in (what would have been, had you actually graduated) your high school yearbook.

"Will Dockery is well-spoken for an illiterate, sub-moronic pissbum."
-- Ahmos Zu-Bolton, Pegasus: The Carver High Literary Journal, May 1976

"Will Dockery smelled pretty good for a donkey."
-- Ahmos Zu-Bolton, Pegasus: The Carver High Literary Journal, May 1976

"Will Donkey smelled pretty good for a Dockery."
-- Ahmos Zu-Bolton, Pegasus: The Carver High Literary Journal, May 1976

sWilly imagines himself some folk cult art leader and has his flunkies Sod and George Dance open threads for him to troll on-- look at the attack threads Dance made using attack poems knowing (which he bragged about) that sWill and Sod would keep bumping them for months
Funny how his jism poem and his simpleton attack poems got so much more traffic (fighting and troll traffic) than his formal pieces-- is Dance just a silly verse poet? Will sWill be calling that garbage like he does of other people's silly verse?

[Will Dockery]

At least Pendragon's malicious attempts have been flagged and reported.

[Michael Pendragon]

You, my good Donkey, are an idiot.

[Will Dockery]

Not quite.

Like Michael Pendragon also did when he created false quotes attributed to poets such as Ahmos Zu-Bolton, who was a poet and publisher, himself.

Make up your mind, dumbass.
It is fantasy or dream?
Hint: It's neither.
I truly want you to die in a fire.

A fantasy is not a wish, Donkey. Learn to read, you illiterate jock strap.

[Ash Wurthing]

Again, you semantic ignorant, unnuanced folk rock illiterate, I didn't say you said you were a "folk cult art leader" but you imagined [an action] yourself to be one. So no, I didn't put words in your mouth...
But when you say that someone's prior post, that you tampered with, with deceitful after the fact post editing of their words in the quote section- to make it look like an admission to your false quote section, that is you putting words into people's mouths to misrepresent what, and lie about what they said.

Wishing for someone's death is not a fantasy, Donkey.

You don't understand what words actually mean.

You seem to think that "fantasy" = "imaginary." It doesn't.

Words matter.

Not really but there are similarities.

Not at all, Ash, just stating the obvious.

You pretend to read my mind but you failed.

HTH and HAND.

[Michael Pendragon]

No, Donkey... it doesn't.

All that it involves is a dislike of your presence... and a desire to no longer have to be subjected to it.

The desire to step on a cockroach that is crawling across one's floor is not a fantasy.

If you did, you would prove it by using them correctly.

Similarities do not make them interchangeable. There are similarities between a ball and a globe -- but each is used for very different purposes.

You're using a second word, "confession," incorrectly. It's clear from
the quote that you're saying it to attack someone else's integrity.
That's not called "confessionn" -- it's called "projection."

1) Falsely attributing it to me is extremely low, George.

2) Quoting out of context *and* post-edited drastically changes the meaning.

1) The "you" in the above passage was very specifically intended to be George Dance.
2) Will Donkey and his Stink cannot write. They can't write in complete, or intelligible, sentences. And that's just for starters.

Nor is your claim supported by my past posts:

Even when Will was my "ally," I said that I found his poetry unreadable, but that it worked for what it was: 3am dive bar music.

Stop lying, George. I've made no such admission.

My words regarding you are true -- and supported by the AAPC archives. You've "published" both Jim and my poetry when you considered us allies, and trashed our poetry when you considered us enemies.

> > That is what Dance did.

You changed some of my words *and* changed the context in which they were written.

I'd call that "post-editing" and "falsified" bullshit.

WTF? I'm talking about your post-edited, out of context version of my words. You make it appear as though I am confessing to my own unscrupulous editorial policy, when I was actually describing yours.

And Ash is correct. RAP and your AAPC Facebook page are barren landscapes -- flooded with the spammed poetry of you and your friends that no one wishes to read.

The sad truth is that you can drive poets away from AAPC (you're a despicable p.o.s. who no one cares to have any sort of interaction with), but you cannot maintain a viable poetry forum on your own (or with the help of your fellow Splooges).

You've driven Jim out of the group, but your victory is a Pyrrhic one at best.

When you drive the best writers out of a poetry group, it ceases to be a poetry group. You've spent the past 6 years burying AAPC under an avalanche of spam posts, slurp posts, "Hello Jordy" posts, and petty flame posts. No one wants to become a part of it -- and those of us who stay only point out how godawful bad your "poetry" really is.

They're quite proud of that, they already been taunting Jim about his leaving. And like with Mr Burrows, who took a break from here, they'll continue to bump #George_J_Dance attack poem threads to taunt Jim even after he leaves. That's because they're just spiteful trolls, quite the proud boys in their glee of people leaving the group they try to dominate with spamming old so called poems and fighting anyone who dares disagree with them about it.

Michael Monkey seems to be forgetting that the whole point of a poetry group is to post (or "spam", in his words) poems. Whether he or the Ashtroll "wishes to read" other people's poems is not a consideration.

> > The sad truth is that you can drive poets away from AAPC (you're a despicable p.o.s. who no one cares to have any sort of interaction with), but you cannot maintain a viable poetry forum on your own (or with the help of your fellow Splooges).

Michael Monkey seems to have gotten it backwards again. As we've seen, it's the "Splooges" who've been bringing new people (or "plants," in Monkeyspeak) to group, and the Jism Gang that's been trying to drive them away. We can always ask a newbie like Mack about that, if there's any disagreement.

IMHO, it's an extremely childish and ineffectually make-believe form of censorship with which sub-moronic dunces convince themselves that they have some control over what is posted here.

Pathetic.

Is this a fill in the blank? If so, I'd like to complete the sentence as follows: OMG! You're being censored because you pissed widdle Georgy Porgy off.

That is *not* the point of AAPC, George. RAP is for posting poetry. AAPC is for *commenting* on poetry. AAPC is a discussion group, and its purpose is for members to "post *and discuss* poetry.*

Many moderated groups require that members comment on two poems by other members in order to post one poem of their own. While we'd all like to keep AAPC much less rigid than that, the basic idea should remain. Those who don't discuss the poetry of others have no business flooding the group with poetry of their own.

> Michael Monkey seems to have gotten it backwards again. As we've seen, it's the "Splooges" who've been bringing new people (or "plants," in Monkeyspeak) to group, and the Jism Gang that's been trying to drive them away. We can always ask a newbie like Mack about that, if there's any disagreement.

When you and/or your Donkey bring some actual poets into the group, you can talk. Bringing in erratic troublemakers to help you drive poets away is not doing anyone in AAPC any good -- not even Team Donkey (and if you took your head out of your ass long enough to look around, you'd see such practices for what they are).

You've spent the past 6 years burying AAPC under an avalanche of spam posts, slurp posts, "Hello Jordy" posts, and petty flame posts. No one wants to become a part of it -- and those of us who stay only point out how godawful bad your "poetry" really is.

And like with Mr Burrows, who took a break from here, they'll continue to bump #George_J_Dance attack poem threads to taunt Jim even after he leaves. That's because they're just spiteful trolls, quite the proud boys in their glee of people leaving the group they try to dominate with spamming old so called poems and fighting anyone who dares disagree with them about it.

Jim is a highly talented poet. Our group is infinitely poorer without him. The same holds true for Robert.

The Donkey must be proud of you.

[Michael Pendragon]

No, dissembling Donkey.

I was describing George J. Dance's editorial philosophy.

Why do you lie so much, you reprehensible, untalented 6'1" pile of diarrheic Donkey dung?

He has fantasies about it, though.


HTH and HAND.

[Michael Pendragon]

And how would you know that, Donkey?

[W-Dockery]

Because Dink posts about them here all the time, ape boy.

HTH and HAND.

[Michael Pendragon]

No one posts any such fantasies here, Donkey.

Words matter. Learn how to use them correctly.

Again, you nailed it, George.

Again, the description was written about George J. Dance, and applies solely to George J. Dance.
