#news_garden debacle

Posted on July 10, 2002 in IRC/Chat

Last night, I was accused by some people of “punishing” my friends for the actions of the predators who have taken over #news_garden. They want me back.

In my defense I said to a concerned #news_garden chatter:

I am not punishing people. I have to act for my own sanity. I was being punished every day I was there for being me…. [X] attacked me several times a day, whined about my judging, etc. And I kept my cool on the channel, until the Saturday night he he went on a homo bashing trip.

Tonight the word is that the channel is derelict, the channel owner fled. All this fear of not alienating the most obnoxious members of the channel lest we kill the channel led to the killing of the channel, at least in the short term.
