Yeah, meanwhile you had tons of guys praising him and the move to scout. I would love to see their faces now. Anyone who praised that move belongs there. |

They didn't sell our email addresses. Most of us signed up over there under our own will. That's kind of the issue. I believe Ballbather finally admitted that he did sell the addresses in one of the last threads over at JI. Then tried to back-peddle by saying all folks had to do was unsubscribe. Problem is that scout does not make it easy to unsubscribe. if that's the case, we can all report scout.com as spammers to SpamHaus.org. |

But most of those fools abandoned ship too. Wish the "read only" JI was available just to flag some of those posts with the absolute fawning over the move. Not many wanted to hear the other side of the sale, which has shown itself to be a disaster. It was almost like some of those posters had a stake in the profit from the sale. Now their standing with their shriveled dicks in hand. |

Just lurked over at scout. A barren Wasteland. So Sad! It just HERPYATT™ and his beard in the middle of the wreckage that's Scout. Saw that yesterday, pretty awful. Love the naievete about how it's the content and quality of posting that will bring the masses back.  Fact is, the people posting here, by and large, were the driving force of that site as of late. That this fact was missed or ignored is why they are where they are. Ohs wells.... |

If you've signed up and been on that site, don't forget to go over there and physically log off.
If you don't hit the log off button, it will still list you as an "active" user, even if you haven't been on the site in months.

I think there's just a little bit of overreacting going on here. Delete spam button is not that much of a life event guys It's principle. Have you no sense of injustice?! Zero |

Problem is that scout does not make it easy to unsubscribe. Actually this is incorrect. I never updated my email when it was announced on JI that addresses needed to be updated for the JI system to continue working. I did go and update my email after the scout announcement was made though. I updated it on JI and when signing up with scout. I am getting the spam to the old email account and not the newer one that is currently used for the scout board. So the addresses were taken and uploaded into scouts spam system some time before the merger was announced to the public. |

What I said is correct, and Ballbather admitted as much. You just agreed with what I stated: That the old email addresses were sold to scout. I was a JI member and never signed up at scout. I received the new scout spam. So, again, Ballbather sold my email address for profit to a third party without my approval. If this is legal, fine. But I fucking don't like it. |

No words can truly express what Ragu did. Seriously. Fucking guy just started this new site in what seemed like 20 minutes. That's a super hero move. |

Sorry, meant to quote the guy you were quoting in that post I quoted(lol). The quote button here is above the post, not below it like I am used to. |

I'm still not used to all the features here either. But they're a ton better than over at scout. Holy fuck is that a graphic/logistical nightmare. |

Problem is that scout does not make it easy to unsubscribe. So, in effect, our passports are being held into perpetuity by that Packer nut Hyatt. Ballbather basically sold us all to out to North Korea. I hope he's enjoying his Coronas on a beach in Brazil.  |
