Wait, lemme get this straight...so *I'M* jealous? Well, let's check this out:
Krusty
Henry is at it again ranting and raving like a fucking imbicile lunatic, and
someone pastes this from an IRC conversation last night, or night before:
"I dunno. I guess I just don't get it, and probably never will. I go
through trying to be decent to people and tolerant, and all I get is crap.
A guy like Krusty comes in here, gloats about how wonderfully rich he is,
like that's a measure of his character, and people kiss his ass like it's
made of communion wafer. When did we as a society get so fucking shallow
that integrity means nothing?"
then...
"like this whole Krusty FAQ thing...WTF? It's nothing but an ego trip to
him"
You're frightening, Mr. Genius. I swear to God, you need therapy, NOW.
Stop obsessing over me, please? Do something...ANYTHING...plonk me, ignore
me, whatever you need to do, just quit already, you're embarassing yourself.

times more this i know and that is John Henry is a complete wackjob. This isn't
trolling either from RSPW's Trolling Master, It's the honest truth brother.
I've read enough to know that this guy is out of his nutshell and he absolutely
knows itcause he'll ignore/killfile someone the second they get the better of
him. I think someone is a little jealous here but it's not Krusty.

Dude, you're just as in the middle of it as anyone else...in fact, you even
stuck your fatass here in the middle of the thread.
Nice attempt to "rise above it" by wallowing in it though...
And FYI, dickbrain, I haven't been posting here for over a month and as soon
as I come back, I'm pounced on by the perpetually unemployed. Not to mention
the fact that On-the-Dole DeJong feels the need to cry and whine like a
fucking baby whenever someone's not around, but doesn't have the balls to
say shit to them while they're there. So sue me if I take it to a forum
where he can "see" it.
You've got a killfile retard, use it if it pisses you off so much, you
fucking idiot.

Meh...He goes back and forth. He's spent time trying to be "Mr. RSPW" for a
while, hanging in the chat and putting up his own little web pages like
we've all done. Apparently he's swung back in the other direction now. He
runs hot and cold. He's alright sometimes, a minor annoyance others.
I'm just waiting for Tehawk to jump in and crosspost it to 14 kook
newsgroups, going on and on about PKB, and whatnot. I'm sure it'll just take
him waking up this morning. He lives for this shit. I guess our Mr. Perkins
is the second coming of Tehawk now. Jumping into every thread he's incapable
of starting himself, so he can add his "me too! me too!" to it.

I'm not questioning him being relevant in terms of being a topic *of*
conversation (nobody's arguing that he isn't the most fascinating example of
a meltdown in recent memory, and that it's tremendously fun to watch him get
so pissed over Chad selling him out by sending that email to Pete). I'm
talking about him being irrelevant insofar as having *anything* worthwhile
to contribute. He's got nothing.
Go on and argue about what *I* contribute. I could care less, you're not
going to stop me from having opinions about people and expressing them here
where we all live and post. But he's got nothing but an abortive website
that's been revealed as nothing more than a way for him to try and cash in
off of the collective works of an entire group of people. It's
pathetic...but again, it's just par for the course for our resident failure
and k00k.

Furthermore, there are times when John Henry tries to participate in a thread
about wrestling, only to have the inevitable Cain/Panaro obsession fireball
come rolling through, as well as Mr On-Topic Flame Proof Krustola show up (When
he isn't off on another indifference imposed sabbatical) and start picking
apart JH's words to find some sort of Hardy Boys/OMEGA reference and accuse
John of using the thread as a chance to put himself and his past in the
business over.

Mind you, this a guy who last year came on here and wrote out some long rant
about the whole flame war between him, Chad, JH, etc....saying he was going to
be above it all from now on, and only talk about "cool" issues, and not respond
to them, and that if he did, he wanted RSPW to call him on it. And a soon as I
did when he went back to the old ways, he flipped out and ripped in to me, much
the way he ripped into you.
In the end, it's stupid, childish bullshit, but I really can't help but laugh
at someone who spends an amazing amount of time protesting about how he's not a
kook..........ACTING LIKE A KOOK.

*Yawn* another "Update".
Here's a clue: There are 5 people who give a fuck about your web site.
Instead of posting these irrelevant updates to RSPW try and discover
this "Thing" called email. Then again, you believe everyone is
anticipating what the latest update will be, NOT !

That should drive the hitcount up to like...um...five or so. Although, I
imagine the hits will be far less now that Chad isn't around to click on
that abortion you call a website.
I didn't buy that "Top Ten Things NOT to Do When Designing a Website" on
redpaper, because I figured it was just ten lines of :
1. Don't ever do what I do
2. Don't ever do what I do
3. Don't ever do what I do...
Shit, asswipe, what you know about "design" could fill a thimble with room
left over to fit a thumb.

Exactly fuckbrain, they helped because they wanted to do something for the
newsgroup. They all got the willies when you started talking about selling
something that isn't yours.

Not the shit you stole from previous FAQs, idiot. And chad didn't *write*
anything, he simnply stole content from Skeith, and pasted it right into
your FAQ.
The point of an FAQ genius, isn't to make money on the collective knowledge
of a usenet group.
Not to mention that your FAQ is about as collective a work as a Stephen King
Novel.
A REAL faq would be a work done BY the group FOR the group, which is why a
shitload of people lobbied for it to be posted to the newsgroup like it
should be. Not "created" by the collective idiots you happen to assemble who
write stupid shit about how the rspw convention was a watershed even in
wrestling history, and equally ridiculous statements.
Earth to John, the reason people left your stupid little FAQ was because it
was sounding less like an FAQ and more like John Henry's Soapbox on Why RSPW
is the most important place on earth. Filled with puffy chested tripe that
puts yourself over and furthers every urban legend ever put forth in here.
It was less an FAQ than it was your personal delusional history of why rspw
is so important to the wrestling business. Your agenda couldn't be less
transparent if you posted it in windex you fucking imbicile.
> There's no "pay" section of the
> site.
Yet. How long was it until you were planning to add it? Or were the proceeds
from you "book" going to support the website? Oh, because we all know
"Altruistic Henry" would never dream of lining his own pockets with his
creation...oh wait...I forgot, that's EXACTLY what you were planning to do.

The rspw faq is a collective work of the newsgroup. It doesn't belong to you
or anyone else. It's a *collective*, open work for the newsgroup. Not your
own personal gain.
I'm sorry your pea-sized brain can't grasp the concept of something not

it.

Sure. Other people footing the bill for your site which, while presumably

anything you want with.

The amount which you've never disclosed. Not that enough people have
contributed for it to make a difference, but for all anyone knows, you could be

Which is true--except that most of us can participate, and use RSPW as
our free therapist (including the occassional flame), without feeling the
need to net.stalk, beat dead horses, go r/t, and tear the same people down
year after year.

So important that you (and those that respond to you) are basically the only

Even funnier was a couple posts I found from the last year asking about "If

An FAQ *should* be a collective work, yours isn't. Happy to Help.
Allan J. Benson
I don't think it necessarily has to be a collective work,
but I think that a FAQ's "owner" should be the newsgroup.
I've always felt the maintainer was just that, a volunteer
who was there for maintenance.
But really, if you both want to make a FAQ, who gives a
damn? Make your FAQs and let the people decide which
one they like better. Personally, I don't really see
why RSPW _needs_ a FAQ at this point. All we really
need is something like FunkyM's FUQ (update that,
you clown) explaining all the in-jokes and kooks
that make up this little online community.

Just make sure you document this childish soap opera in the new FAQ,
because it's taking on legendary proportions.

I think a lot of RSPW's influence is still rather
speculative. Sure, we had the RSPW Con at an ECW
show and sure some wrestlers posted here once.
I'll even concede that some low level WWE front
office lackey probably reads the group from time
to time. But really, there's no evidence which
I've seen that tells me RSPW has had anything
beyond a (what I would consider) miniscule influence
for as long as I've been reading it. Perhaps it is
wishful thinking to believe the place that we post
every day can alter the outcome to major angles
and affect Vince McMahon's train of thought. It
would be easy to think Finkle saw someone call the
Rock's finisher a "People's Elbow" and passed the
idea on to McMahon or the Rock, but nothing like
that has happened to any of our knowledge.
You're entitled to your opinion, of course,
but IMHO, your belief that RSPW has had
an impact on wrestling beyond the surface
appearence is debate material for RSPW,
not FAQ material.

I think guys like Krusty and Panaro keep doing things
like they do because they know what kind of reaction
they can get out of you and they get a kick out of it.
I might not a PhD in psychology, but I've been online
long enough to understand the minds of the people who
post here (I dare say, better than almost anyone).

Wigger please.
Here's a clue fatass, until they actually say this themselves, I'll
call you a liar.
The biggest lie I've seen told in usenet is when someone makes the
claim, "they told me via e-mail or in IM", in regards to people who
have never had any problems expressing their point of view about
anyone else right here in the open.

Seriously, dude, this stuff makes for tons more fun reading than a FAQ that

The breakdown was when you posted the entire FAQ here and then spent 200 lines
defending yourself with "Its not about the money" and generally martyring
yourself. I feel no shame in saying I am entertsined by your breakdowns. It's
really funny stuff.
