Late one hot summer night, at a local police station, the phone rings:

Yo VIP let's kick it
Ice ice baby (x2)
All right stop collaborate and listen
Ice is back with my brand new invention
Something grabs a hold of me tightly
Flow like a harpoon daily and nightly
Will it ever stop yo I don't know
Turn off the lights and I'll glow
To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal
Light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle
Dance go rush to the speaker that booms
I'm killing your brain like a poisonous mushroom
Deadly when I play a dope melody
Anything less than the best is a felony
Love it or leave it you better gain weight
You better hit bull's eye the kid don't play
If there was a problem yo I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it
CHORUS
Ice ice baby vanillla (x4)
Now that the party is jumping
With the bass kicked in and the vegas are pumpin'
Quick to the point to the point no faking
I'm cooking MC's like a pound of bacon
Burning them if you ain't quick and nimble
I go crazy when I hear a cymbal
And a hi-hat with a souped up tempo
I'm on a roll and it's time to go solo
Rollin' in my 5.0
With my rag-top down so my hair can blow
The girlies on standby waving just to say hi
Did you stop no I just drove by
Kept on pursuing to the next stop
I busted a left and I'm heading to the next block
The block was dead
Yo so I continued to A1A Beachfront Avenue
Girls were hot wearing less than bikinis
Rockman lovers driving Lamborghinis
Jealous 'cause I'm out getting mine
Shay with a guage and Vanilla with a nine
Reading for the chumps on the wall
The chumps acting ill because they're so full of eight balls
Gunshots rang out like a bell
I grabbed my nine all I heard were shells
Falling on the concrete real fast
Jumped in my car slammed on the gas
Bumpet to bumper the avenue's packed
I'm trying to get away before the jackers jack
Police on the scene you know what I mean
They passed me up confronted all the dope fiends
If there was a problem yo I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it
REPEAT CHORUS
Take heed 'cause I'm a lyrical poet
Miami's on the scene just in case you didn't know it
My town that created all the bass sound
Enough to shake and kick holes in the ground
'Cause my style's like a chemical spill
Feasible rhymes that you can vision and feel
Conducted and formed
This is a hell of a concept
We make it hype and you want to step with this
Shay plays on the fade slice like a ninja
Cut like a razor blade so fast other DJs say damn
If my rhyme was a drug I'd sell it by the gram
Keep my composure when it's time to get loose
Magnetized by the mic while I kick my juice
If there was a problem yo I'll solve it
Check out the hook while Shay revolves it
Ice ice baby vanilla
Ice ice baby (oh-oh) vanilla
Ice ice baby vanilla
Ice ice baby vanilla ice
Yo man let's get out of here
Word to your mother
Ice ice baby too cold
Ice ice baby too cold too cold (x2)
Ice ice baby
Officer Joshiano: ok that is bad... ive never read such horrible lyrics
Jive Belladonna: no, but he mentioned my friend AND his mother as a cherry on the top of my big, hot throbbing banana split
Officer Joshiano: where?
Jive Belladonna: he specifically bolded the letter V all by itself
Officer Joshiano: so?
Jive Belladonna: my bros real life fake name is Fernando Venezuala, he is obviously talking about him!
Officer Joshiano: what? real fake what?
Jive Belladonna: its his second life name, but i love him so go help
Officer Joshiano: look, as much as id like to help, God knows it should be a crime to listen to rap, my daughter likes that shit...
Jive Belladonna: breeder!
Officer Joshiano: excuse me?
Jive Belladonna: anyway, will you go arrest him, please please , and then strip search him, and send me pictures of the cavity search?
Officer Joshiano: like i said, no crime has been committed... unless he went right up to your friends face and did it
Jive Belladonna: well he did, right there on his own forum
Officer Joshiano: forum?
Jive Belladonna: yeah, its a forum for this video game we all play, except mulch, he hates it, i dont know why hes even here... did i ever tell you about my postcount?
Officer Joshiano: postwhat?
Jive Belladonna: look, my ex boyfriends brothers sister in laws nieghbors cat was a police officer, so i know how you should be doing your job
Officer Joshiano: my what?
Jive Belladonna: wanna make out?
Officer Joshiano: look, ill refer this to a detective if i can stop laughing, soon enough, dont call us, we'll call you
Jive Belladonna: you are just a mulch sock puppet
Officer Joshiano: look kid, tell your dad not to let you play on the innerwebs, ok?
Jive Belladonna: you excruciatingly nauseating dripping cuntbag
Officer Joshiano: bye bye you... click... you rabid infectious little mangy mutt
Officer Joshiano: hello, 911 what is the nature of your emergency
Caller: Yes, someone broke into our house and locked us in the closet and while robbing us, i called you guys, but ive been on hold like 13 minutes or so and we just heard him drive away... i think he shot an innocent bystander on the street on his way out...
the preceding was a work of fiction, satire, parody, and utter fantasy... any resemblance between actual people or events is entirely coincidental

No Need to Prove: Damages
Hey ya'll.
I need some advice.
Recently, the moderator of a innerweb chat forum made this statement:
Long as it doesn't involve something that jeopardizes the uptime of the board (idk - threats, RL information, libel, etc etc type of stuff that involves me as a host having to deal with nonsense)
One of these things is being allowed to happen at these boards repeatedly in concern to me myself, and in fact, repeatedly in the thread that quote was taken from. I would PM the guy and ask him to remove the content in the less formal alternative that I have to take, but I am banned from his forum and cannot PM him.
The publisher of another site, along with his own moderator, no longer wished to commit libel on the site this started up on (as if that will stop the damage he has already done, look up "libel per se"), so he is doing it on this other site presumably to let someone else publish the information and bear the responsibility.
Now here is the deal. I can't contact the admin and I can't even use the forums search function to locate the damaging statements... so short of taking appropriate steps with a friendly notification and take down request, I am left with little choice but to take the steps allowed to me under the current law in states and Territories within the United States or its jurisdiction.
Does anyone have a suggestion on how to inform the moderator of this site as to the libelous statements he is publishing (or allowing to be published by moderators of another site that is currently being scrutinized) and request that he not only removes the libelous statements in that thread, but any and all libelous statements that the 2 rogue mods have made and the moderator in question has allowed to stay published before I have to put everyone through the expense of a formal demand?

Mr Tanner
About 4 years before the Montreal screw job and about 4 years after I stopped watching rasslin', there was an encounter that has stood the test of time in the pro wrestling world. Role model and fan favorite Bret "The Hitman" Hart was to settle his fued at Wrestlemania (the Super Bowl of Wrestling) against hated villain "Stone Cold" Steve Austin. This was no ordinary match, there was not only a special referee, legendary Ken Shamrock (who i was lucky enough to spend some time with a few years back when I was still in radio, very nice guy, he even did a promo for my radio show), but there was a stipulation; it was an "I Quit" match where you had to "give up" to lose the bout.
As the heel "Stone Cold" made his way to the ring, sneering at and jerking away from the the crowd, even tearing up a poster that a fan brought that was not complimentary, there was no hint at the significance of the match on the history of pro wrestling, and I dare even say entertainment as a whole. "The Hitman" entered the ring to the high fives of the adoring audience, and even gave his sunglasses away to a child who was in awe of seeing his hero, live, right in front of him. Even though Jerry "The King" Lawler, Jim Ross, and Vince McMahon, the announcers, praised "The Hitman," there seemed to be a bit of discomfort as to the hero's state of mind.
The first part of the match included a lengthy fight through the huge crowd, with a stop for concessions, of course... but as the match entered the ring, "good guy" Bret Hart started to work on Steve Austins already injured knee...
As "The Hitman" continues to work on "Stone Cold's" already injured leg, even applying a figure four leglock around the ringpost and attempting to use a "steel" chair to destroy Austin's knee, the crowd started to appreciate Steve Austin's determination in the face of adversity, and started to dislike Bret Hart's disregarding of rules about fair play and honor in favor of absolute victory.
When "Stone Cold" took the chair away from "The Hitman" and beat the living daylights out of him, the fans did something unexpected; they cheered.
It was almost like he deserved the beating for what he had done. The crowd, who had traditionally hated the use of objects such as a "steel" chair in a fair fight, were going crazy as "Stone Cold" exacted revenge on "babyface" Bret Hart with the illegal object. The fans were starting to understand who can talk the talk and who can walk the walk.
And all of a sudden the "heel" wasn't very heelish... he did what he said he would do all along, after all... the "babyface" decided to abandon the higher ground in pursuit of the glory of victory. He even raked his opponents eyes to get the upper hand. The heel did what he said and made no bones about it... the fans may not have agreed with him 100% but they respected him because he had honor...
And there it was... the "rulebreaker" holding on to his honor and manhood... the "fan favorite" doing whatever it took to "win," regardless of what he lost to do so. And when the "heel" raked the eyes of the "babyface," the crowd cheered the cheating this time because karma is always karma... no matter who it happens to.
And then there was the pyrrhic victory... and the audience looked on in stunned silence as the victor went far beyond the spoils of war in the aftermath.
And the observers could do but one thing when it was over... they chanted and gave a standing ovation to the guy who lost... the guy who did nothing short of what he said and kept his honor intact, while the "popular" guy sacrificed everything he had so he could "win."
It is not often a parable is told in pro wrestling... but seriously, when was the last time you cheered when someone you didnt like made you respect them, or someone you liked made you disrespect them?

The Rest
You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last.
But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast.
Yonder stands your orphan with his gun,
Crying like a fire in the sun.
Look out the saints are comin' through
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.
The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense.
Take what you have gathered from coincidence.
The empty-handed painter from your streets
Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets.
This sky, too, is folding under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.
All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home.
All your reindeer armies, are all going home.
The lover who just walked out your door
Has taken all his blankets from the floor.
The carpet, too, is moving under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.
Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you.
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
The vagabond who's rapping at your door
Is standing in the clothes that you once wore.
Strike another match, go start anew
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.

The Jester Wears the Broken Crown
In societies where the Freedom of Speech was not recognized as a right, the court jester - precisely because anything he said was by definition "a jest" and "the uttering of a fool" - could speak frankly on controversial issues in a way in which anyone else would have been severely punished for, and monarchs understood the usefulness of having such a person at their side.
Give me back my broken night
my mirrored room, my secret life
it's lonely here,
there's no one left to torture
Give me absolute control
over every living soul
And lie beside me, baby,
that's an order!
Give me crack and anal sex
Take the only tree that's left
and stuff it up the hole
in your culture
Give me back the Berlin wall
give me Stalin and St Paul
I've seen the future, brother:
it is murder.
Things are going to slide, slide in all directions
Won't be nothing
Nothing you can measure anymore
The blizzard, the blizzard of the world
has crossed the threshold
and it has overturned
the order of the soul
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant
You don't know me from the wind
you never will, you never did
I'm the little jew
who wrote the Bible
I've seen the nations rise and fall
I've heard their stories, heard them all
but love's the only engine of survival
Your servant here, he has been told
to say it clear, to say it cold:
It's over, it ain't going
any further
And now the wheels of heaven stop
you feel the devil's riding crop
Get ready for the future:
it is murder
Things are going to slide, slide in all directions
Won't be nothing
Nothing you can measure anymore
The blizzard, the blizzard of the world
has crossed the threshold
and it has overturned
the order of the soul
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant
There'll be the breaking of the ancient
western code
Your private life will suddenly explode
There'll be phantoms
There'll be fires on the road
and the white man dancing
You'll see a woman
hanging upside down
her features covered by her fallen gown
and all the lousy little poets
coming round
tryin' to sound like Charlie Manson
and the white man dancin'
Give me back the Berlin wall
Give me Stalin and St Paul
Give me Christ
or give me Hiroshima
Destroy another fetus now
We don't like children anyhow
I've seen the future, baby:
it is murder
Things are going to slide, slide in all directions
Won't be nothing
Nothing you can measure anymore
The blizzard, the blizzard of the world
has crossed the threshold
and it has overturned
the order of the soul
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant

All Your Privacy Are Belong to Us
Excerpt From SL Universe website regarding IP addresses and security on the official "Privacy Policy" Page Updated last on 5/29/2005 (all emphasis and bolding quoted from 3rd party sites added by Mulch).
For each visitor to our Web page, our Web server automatically recognizes only the consumer's domain name, but not the e-mail address (where possible).
We collect only the domain name, but not the e-mail address of visitors to our Web page, aggregate information on what pages consumers access or visit, information volunteered by the consumer, such as survey information and/or site registrations.
...
With respect to security: ... We have appropriate security measures in place in our physical facilities to protect against the loss, misuse or alteration of information that we have collected from you at our site.
If you feel that this site is not following its stated information policy, you may contact us at the above email address addresses, the Federal Trade Commission by phone at 202.FTC-HELP (202.382.4357) or electronically at http://web.archive.org/web/200502250.../complaint.htm.
Now let me make this perfectly clear... this was not a hack... this information was available to anyone who visited the site and nothing special was done to bypass any securtiy feature.
As a matter of fact, I remember Sansarya mentioned this to the Owner of the site on the forums, and was yelled at by the owner and he denied the entire thing. Sadly, I also told Sansarya that she was wrong and was prolly just remembering that Prokofy got paranoid and went on and on about the misuse of personal information at the SL Universe site.
Well it looks like I owe 2 people an apology... Sans, I apologize that I didn't believe you when you told me, and furthermore, told you that you were wrong in teh forums. I sincerely apologize for my error.
Prokofy, I also owe you an apology. I figured you as a loon, but damn if you didn't nail this one on the head. I am truly sorry I didn't pay more attention when you were waving the warning flag.
Now, I think another person owes some people some apologies... Hopefully he will make it up to Sansarya directly and very publicly for alerting him to this considering how he publicly reamed her for alerting him to this... but I think there are more apologies, especially since this was known (or should have been) based on repeated reports from at least Sansarya.
The people whose IP addresses he exposed... I suppose you will have to ask for an explanation yourself. In case of some breach or some act of God, I think he would be obligated to acknowledge and explain it (as well as to apologize to those who tried to tell him only to get scolded for it), but apparently he thinks different.
Considering admissions of exchanging/comparing IP info prior to this made by the site admin at SLU, perhaps this should draw a bit more attention as to what "a further strengthening of the relationship between the two sites" means in broader terms... especially considering who passed information regarding me that supposedly shut down the site directly to be posted at SLU... it's your info and privacy people...
and while we are reading privacy policy of various sites, i came across a discussion about privacy that was written at another SL related forum... let's take a stroll down memory lane, shall we?:
The deal is this:
The information I get from you guys. IP #'s, Email, and whatever other information you provide me, is covered by the Privacy policy here. I made a big issue about the IP specifically because that's the one piece of information you have to hand over to the forums. It's built into the software. Everything else is optional as far as accuracy goes.
You can use fake emails, fake names, fake information in your profile, etc. But the IP is the one thing that is given to vBulletin that is more or less true. Therefore, I do not publish that information. There is an option for publishing IP #'s on a per post basis that the vBulletin provides, but I turned it off. It would mean everyone could see your #.
This is the only reason IP is a big deal here. Because you can't "choose" to not give it to the forums. It isn't optional, unlike your other info.
Now as for me not publishing IP but not being concerned with other info people post about you, it's as simple as this:
I have tried to make the rules here easygoing. I pass over the responsibility of your posts to you as an individual poster. I don't want to be a babysitter or a censor for anyone. Therefore it's up to you to decide how you want to conduct yourself here.
You have the ability to edit your own posts. I don't need to do that for anyone here. And I'm not going to censor people.
You are all responsible for your own words and activities. And I'm not about to tell anyone how they should function here.
On a personal level, speaking for myself only, I do not disclose information given to me that you do not want published. The IP is an exception. You don't have to tell me, "don't disclose that", I just don't do it by default.
If you were to email me with your real name, or address, or phone number, or picture, and you wanted that kept private, it would be.
Again, I am as responsible for my own posts here as you guys are individually.
You have been given the freedom to moderate yourselves. My morality begins and ends with myself. I'm not here to push my morals on anybody.
If I started removing information people other than myself published here, I might as well just set up the word censor and other features as well. What would be the point of coming here? I'd be offering no alternative to the forums you are already using.
...
I am not comfortable with complete disclosure of information, and like said before, I would do no such thing to somebody here myself. But the point of this place is not for me to step in and make sure everyone adheres to my personal standards. It's to give back some freedom to people to decide for themselves what is right or wrong in their eyes.
I do have concern about such information being published here. But it's up to the person posting to decide if that's appropriate or not, or whether they care.
I know that makes me look uncaring, but I'm far from that.
It's just important to me that I keep this place running like it was intended to be. And not start amending the rules.
I believe in this system, and am willing to stick with it.
I just wish people wouldn't assume I'm supporting activities here just because they are allowed to happen. If anyone wants to know how I feel about stuff on a personal level, then just ask specifically, and I'll tell you my opinion on it.
Excerpt from the Privacy Policy Originally posted and updated last as of 2/13/2006... unless I missed a new update at some time.
How does Second Citizen share that information?
I'm not the sharing type. At least not with private information like that. I don't sell your email addresses to spammers. I don't publish your IP addresses. If anyone asks for this information, they're not going to get it.
The ONLY exception here is if I'm issued a subpoena for a users information. By law I have to turn over information, but usually within a timeframe. And in that case, I would contact you ASAP. And while I'm not a lawyer, I know a good amount about this, and I would recommend you contact a lawyer and file a motion to quash their discovery of your information. In that case, if the motion to quash was accepted, I wouldn't have to turn over any information.
Sorry. I don't mean to freak anyone out. This is a very unlikely situation of course. I don't expect this to happen, and you shouldn't either.
Doesn't seem to jive with passing info that other members can't see to other forum hosts to openly post during the "further strengthening of the relationship between the two sites" that was discussed in last weeks Metaverse Messenger article.
I don't even think there is a line to read between at this point...
For each visitor to our Web page, our Web server automatically recognizes only the consumer's domain name, but not the e-mail address (where possible).
We collect only the domain name, but not the e-mail address of visitors to our Web page, aggregate information on what pages consumers access or visit, information volunteered by the consumer, such as survey information and/or site registrations.

Considering admissions of exchanging/comparing IP info prior to this made by the site admin at SLU, perhaps this should draw a bit more attention as to what "a further strengthening of the relationship between the two sites" means in broader terms... especially considering who passed information regarding me that supposedly shut down the site directly to be posted at SLU... it's your info and privacy people...
and while we are reading privacy policy of various sites, i came across a discussion about privacy that was written at another SL related forum... let's take a stroll down memory lane, shall we?:
The deal is this:
The information I get from you guys. IP #'s, Email, and whatever other information you provide me, is covered by the Privacy policy here. I made a big issue about the IP specifically because that's the one piece of information you have to hand over to the forums. It's built into the software. Everything else is optional as far as accuracy goes.
You can use fake emails, fake names, fake information in your profile, etc. But the IP is the one thing that is given to vBulletin that is more or less true. Therefore, I do not publish that information. There is an option for publishing IP #'s on a per post basis that the vBulletin provides, but I turned it off. It would mean everyone could see your #.
This is the only reason IP is a big deal here. Because you can't "choose" to not give it to the forums. It isn't optional, unlike your other info.
Now as for me not publishing IP but not being concerned with other info people post about you, it's as simple as this:
I have tried to make the rules here easygoing. I pass over the responsibility of your posts to you as an individual poster. I don't want to be a babysitter or a censor for anyone. Therefore it's up to you to decide how you want to conduct yourself here.
You have the ability to edit your own posts. I don't need to do that for anyone here. And I'm not going to censor people.
You are all responsible for your own words and activities. And I'm not about to tell anyone how they should function here.
On a personal level, speaking for myself only, I do not disclose information given to me that you do not want published. The IP is an exception. You don't have to tell me, "don't disclose that", I just don't do it by default.
If you were to email me with your real name, or address, or phone number, or picture, and you wanted that kept private, it would be.
Again, I am as responsible for my own posts here as you guys are individually.
You have been given the freedom to moderate yourselves. My morality begins and ends with myself. I'm not here to push my morals on anybody.
If I started removing information people other than myself published here, I might as well just set up the word censor and other features as well. What would be the point of coming here? I'd be offering no alternative to the forums you are already using.
...
I am not comfortable with complete disclosure of information, and like said before, I would do no such thing to somebody here myself. But the point of this place is not for me to step in and make sure everyone adheres to my personal standards. It's to give back some freedom to people to decide for themselves what is right or wrong in their eyes.
I do have concern about such information being published here. But it's up to the person posting to decide if that's appropriate or not, or whether they care.
I know that makes me look uncaring, but I'm far from that.
It's just important to me that I keep this place running like it was intended to be. And not start amending the rules.
I believe in this system, and am willing to stick with it.
I just wish people wouldn't assume I'm supporting activities here just because they are allowed to happen. If anyone wants to know how I feel about stuff on a personal level, then just ask specifically, and I'll tell you my opinion on it.
Excerpt from the Privacy Policy Originally posted and updated last as of 2/13/2006... unless I missed a new update at some time.
How does Second Citizen share that information?
I'm not the sharing type. At least not with private information like that. I don't sell your email addresses to spammers. I don't publish your IP addresses. If anyone asks for this information, they're not going to get it.
The ONLY exception here is if I'm issued a subpoena for a users information. By law I have to turn over information, but usually within a timeframe. And in that case, I would contact you ASAP. And while I'm not a lawyer, I know a good amount about this, and I would recommend you contact a lawyer and file a motion to quash their discovery of your information. In that case, if the motion to quash was accepted, I wouldn't have to turn over any information.
Sorry. I don't mean to freak anyone out. This is a very unlikely situation of course. I don't expect this to happen, and you shouldn't either.
Doesn't seem to jive with passing info that other members can't see to other forum hosts to openly post during the "further strengthening of the relationship between the two sites" that was discussed in last weeks Metaverse Messenger article.
I don't even think there is a line to read between at this point...

Internet Death Threats
They are as old as the internet, and for the most part, I don't feel they are worth the paper they are printed on.
In fact, they are not even new to the Second Life world.
Several months ago, someone posted on a forum that they would "cheerfully strangle" a certain person. Even though one person mentioned a specific person by name and suggested a specific manner with which they would do so, very few people considered it an actual death threat... with some notable exceptions... the same notable exceptions who seem to enjoy elevating hyperbole to the point of absurdity, interpreting and filtering information to suit their specific agenda, and then disseminating this information in a manner that supports the outcome they wish to achieve... often with the intent to cause irreparable harm to another persons reputation.
I even lampooned the concept of internet threats myself with my "Dead Pool" satire post.
Not that I think that internet people are inherently harmless... in fact, quite the opposite. I personally believe that heavy internet users have one of the highest "sick puppy" per "normal person" ratios that can be found in a sample that size. For this reason alone, I have myself chosen to remain anonymous and have been fairly careful on what aspects of my real life I allow to intersect with internet people.
I do think there is potential for real life danger... but in all honesty I feel that potential is very, very low. However, if someone was seriously concerned about their physical safety, then I would advise them to consult with law enforcement about it and take suitable reasonable precautions. To suggest any other course of action in the face of possible danger would be irresponsible regardless of how silly I personally think the whole idea of internet threats are.
Now, due to some information that I have received, it seems fairly obvious to me that some 3rd parties are doing an awful lot to convince a specific person that I have made some sort of threat against them or have in some way targeted them for violence. These 3rd parties seem to once again be interpreting and filtering information to suit their specific agenda, and then disseminating this information in a manner that supports the outcome they wish to achieve... and it seems to be the intention to cause irreparable harm to another persons reputation and use another person as the vehicle for this attack.
I feel fairly silly saying this as an adult with two feet squarely on terra firma, but, in case they have managed to succeed in making this person or anyone else believe they are in some sort of danger from me personally, for the record, I am going to make a statement on this matter.
I have not made a death threat or any other kind of threat against anyone.
I have no intention to cause harm to anyone.
If someone has made you believe that I have made a threat against you or anyone else, or if you or anyone believe they are in some kind of danger from me, I apologize for that result and can assure them that there is no danger from me whatsoever.
Now I have said what I have to say about this matter, and have done so with the intention to make one thing perfectly clear: I have made no internet threat and no one is any danger from me. Any further discussion about this from me will not be occurring on the internet.

I am making a quick post as i did not have a copy of the OP on SC.
Well, thanks to the mod of SLU, here they are.
If they are gone tonight when i get home, I will repost them myself.
If they are altered, I will repost them myself.
No matter what, I WILL maintain a record...
But in the Meantime, here is what the Mod of SLU is OK with passing behind the scenes... but will not publish under his own name.
I'm a little busy... I will talk soon, but in the meantime, enjoy the contents of the 1st official lifetime ban from SC...
Thank You Eminem and Dr. Dre for creating a stupid controversy out of nothing... and thanks to you know who for posting them on your pathetic little site and passing them around like a secret that only the Kool Kids Klub have access to... I have them too in case you try to cover your tracks, it's obvious that you have them as well and are sharing them all... as you usually do... behind the scenes, coward. Your secrets out, in more ways than you realize at this point.
Enjoy!
never knew I..
I never knew I..
Mic check one-two
I never knew I..
Who woulda knew?

I never knew I..
And these motherfuckers hit the ceiling
I never knew I..
I don't do black music, I don't do white music
I make fight music, for high school kids
I put lives at risk when I drive like this {*tires screech*}
I put wives at risk with a knife like this (AHHH!!)
Shit, you probably think I'm in your tape deck now
I'm in the back seat of your truck, with duct tape stretched out
Ducked the fuck way down, waitin to straight jump out
put it over your mouth, and grab you by the face, what now?
Oh - you want me to watch my mouth, how?
Take my fuckin eyeballs out, and turn em around?
Look - I'll burn your fuckin house down, circle around
and hit the hydrant, so you can't put your burning furniture out
(Oh my God! Oh my God!) I'm sorry, there must be a mix-up
You want me to fix up lyrics while the President gets his dick sucked?
{*ewwww*} Fuck that, take drugs, rape sluts
Make fun of gay clubs, men who wear make-up
Get aware, wake up, get a sense of humor
Quit tryin to censor music, this is for your kid's amusement
(The kids!) But don't blame me when lil' Eric jumps off of the terrace
You shoulda been watchin him - apparently you ain't parents
Cause I never knew I, knew I would get this big
I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid
I never knew I'd, get him to slit his wrist
I never knew I'd, get him to hit this bitch
I never knew I, knew I would get this big
I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid
I never knew I'd, get him to slit his wrist
I never knew I'd, get him to hit this bitch
So who's bringin the guns in this country? (Hmm?)
I couldn't sneak a plastic pellet gun through customs over in London
And last week, I seen a Schwarzaneggar movie
where he's shootin all sorts of these motherfuckers with a uzi
I sees three little kids, up in the front row,
screamin "Go," with their 17-year-old Uncle
I'm like, "Guidance - ain't they got the same moms and dads
who got mad when I asked if they liked violence?"
And told me that my tape taught 'em to swear
What about the make-up you allow your 12-year-old daughter to wear?
(Hmm?) So tell me that your son doesn't know any cuss words
when his bus driver's screamin at him, fuckin him up worse
("Go sit the fuck down, you little fuckin prick!")
And fuck was the first word I ever learned
up in the third grade, flippin the gym teacher the bird (Look!)
So read up, about how I used to get beat up
peed on, be on free lunch, and change school every 3 months
My life's like kinda what my wife's like (what?)
Fucked up after I beat her fuckin ass every night, Ike
So how much easier would life be
if 19 million motherfuckers grew to be just like me?
Cause I never knew I, knew I would get this big
I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid
I never knew I'd, get him to slit his wrist
I never knew I'd, get him to hit this bitch
I never knew I, knew I would get this big
I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid
I never knew I'd, get him to slit his wrist
I never knew I'd, get him to hit this bitch

Sonny Bono, skis horses and hittin some trees (HEY!)
How many retards'll listen to me
and run up in the school shootin when they're pissed at a
teach-er, her, him, is it you is it them?
"Wasn't me, Slim Shady said to do it again!"
Damn! How much damage can you do with a pen?
Man I'm just as fucked up as you woulda been
if you woulda been, in my shoes, who woulda thought
Slim Shady would be somethin that you woulda bought
that woulda made you get a gun and shoot at a cop
I just said it - I ain't know if you'd do it or not
Cause I never knew I, knew I would get this big
I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid
I never knew I'd, get him to slit his wrist
I never knew I'd, get him to hit this bitch
I never knew I, knew I would get this big

Link for Metaverse Messenger Readers to Original Article on Forum Controversy
Click Please
I would very much like to thank the Metaverse Messenger for the chance to have my say in this matter despite the new Forum Cartel (referred to in the article and as quoted by the mod of one of the two forums as "a further strengthening of the relationship between the two sites") doing their best to have the final say in the matter while cutting my ability to respond off.
The M2 is already being criticized from a mod from one of the two sites that there was a lack of balance in face time... but both mods have plenty of readers and their own well known venues to address me and I had no other way to respond directly in a public manner... so in the name of free speech, I think it is important to acknowledge the contribution to balance from M2. Thank You.

What's the difference between me and you?
What's the difference between me and you?
Back when Cube - was rollin wit Lorenzo in a Benzo
I was bangin wit a gang of instrumentals
Got the pens and pencils, got down to business; but sometimes
the business end of this shit can turn your friends against you
But you was a real nigga, I could sense it in you
I still remember the window of the car that you went through
That's fucked up, but I'll never forget the shit we been through
And I'ma do whatever it takes to convince you
Cuz you my nigga Doc, and Eazy I'm still wit you
Fuck the beef, nigga I miss you, and that's just bein real wit you
You see the truth is
Everybody wanna know how close me and Snoop is
And who I'm still cool wit
Then I got these fake-ass niggaz I first drew with
Claimin that they non-violent, talkin like they *voice sample*
Spit venom in interviews, speakin on reunions
Move units, then talk shit and we can do this
Until then - I ain't even speakin your name
Just keep my name outta yo' mouth and we can keep it the same
Nigga, it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors
It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em
That's the difference
What's the difference between me and you?
You talk a good one - but you don't do what you supposed to do
I act on what I feel and never deal wit emotions
I'm used to livin big dog style and straight coastin
What's the difference between me and you?

I'm used to livin big dog style and straight coastin
Yo I stay wit it
While you try to perpetrate, play wit it
Never knew about the next level until Dre did it (YEAH)
I stay committed while you motherfuckers baby-sitted
I smash you critics like a overhand right from Riddick
(Yeah!) Come and get it, shitted on villians by the millions
I be catchin bitches while bitches be catchin feelings
So what the fuck am I supposed to do?
I pop bottles and hot hollow-points at each and all of you (Come on!)
A heartless bastard, high and plastered
My style is like the reaction from too much acid - never come down
Pass it around if you can't handle it
Hang Hollywood niggaz by they Soul Train laminates
What's the difference between me and you? (What?)
About five back accounts, three ounces and two vehicles
Until my death, I'm Bangladesh
I suggest you hold yo' breath til ain't none left
Yo that's the difference
What's the difference between me and you?
You talk a good one - but you don't do what you supposed to do
I act on what I feel and never deal wit emotions
I'm used to livin big dog style and straight coastin
What's the difference between me and you?
You talk a good one - but you don't do what you supposed to do
I act on what I feel and never deal wit emotions

Aight, hold up hold up!
STOP THE BEAT A MINUTE!! I got somethin to say
Dre; I wanna tell you this shit right now while this fuckin weed is in me
(The fuck?!) I don't know if I ever told you this, but I love you dawg
I got your motherfuckin back, just know this shit
Riiight? .. Slim, I don't know if you noticed it
But I've had your back from day one, nigga let's blow this bitch
I mean it dawg, you ever need somebody offed - who's throat is it?
Well if you ever kill that
Well that's cool, and I appreciate the offer
But if I do decide to really murder my daughter's momma
I'ma sit her up in the front seat and put sunglasses on her
And cruise around wit her for seven hours through California
And have her wavin at people (Hi!) Then drop her off on the corner
at the police station and drive off honkin the horn for her
Raw dawg, get your arm gnawed off
Drop the sawed off and beat you wit the piece it was sawed off of
Fuck blood, I wanna see some lungs coughed up
Get shot up in the hot tub til the bubbles pop up
and they nose and cough snot up, mucus in hot water
That's for tryin to talk like The Chronic was lost product
That's for even THINKIN of havin them thoughts thought up!
You better show some respect whenever the Doc's brought up!!
So what's the difference between us? We can start at the penis
Or we can scream, "I Just Don't Give a Fuck," and see who means it!
What's the difference between me and you?
You talk a good one - but you don't do what you supposed to do
I act on what I feel and never deal wit emotions
I'm used to livin big dog style and straight coastin
What's the difference between me and you?
You talk a good one - but you don't do what you supposed to do
I act on what I feel and never deal wit emotions

It is Libel
In law, defamation is the communication of a statement that makes a false claim, expressly stated or implied to be factual, that may harm the reputation of an individual, business, product, group, government or nation. Most jurisdictions allow legal actions, civil and/or criminal, to deter various kinds of defamation and retaliate against criticism.
All states except Arizona, Arkansas, Mississippi, Missouri, and Tennessee recognize that some categories of statements are considered to be defamatory per se, such that people making a defamation claim for these statements do not need to prove that the statement was defamatory. In the common law tradition, damages for such statements are presumed and do not have to be proven. Traditionally, these per se defamatory statements include:

In the common law tradition, damages for such statements are presumed and do not have to be proven. Traditionally, these per se defamatory statements include:
