Old Bill

[Anonymous 1]

Would definitely like to see this man return.

Forced out by individuals who have now gone.

You know, I never had a problem with the guy. He gave solid hard core advice. He knew drama and bulls~~~ from a mile away. However, OldBill and Gargamel did feud often. He was kind of a straight no bulls~~~ kind of guy. Kind of like he knew what was coming and could tell from personality traits how to read people.

I think it was his avatar that I will always remember. It was like when you were a kid, and you liked pulling pranks on the old guy up the street.

I always admire men that hold strong to their convictions. But I think it was his unwavering resolve that really brought a sense of stability to the place.

Basicly, one of the level headed guys in the band of misfits.

You are all alone. If you have been falsely accused of RAPE, DV, PLEASE let all men know about the people who did this. http://register-her.net/web/guest/home

I totally agree with Old Bill’s supreme tactic in handling Net Trolls.
I’d already learnt this harsh truth the hard way many. many years ago.
There’s only one way to deal with trolls. Ignore them, give them NO ATTENTION There’s no other way!!!!!!!!
The tactic of ignore is devastating to the troll. It annihilates their online personas in an instant.

It’s totally different offline where you can humiliate and destroy someone so bad they’ll go out of their way to avoid you the rest of their life. THIS TACTIC DOESN’T WORK ONLINE, IT DOES THE EXACT OPPOSITE.
Any attention, especially negative attention which is seen as an emotional reaction initiated by the troll, is a confirmation of the trolls power, food for the troll. Don’t feed trolls.

However, just like Old Bill I found it’s an excruciating waste of time to try and tell people that OFFLINE tactics work in the exact reverse when used ONLINE. Old Bill should have known that, and it’s the one thing I can find fault with him for even trying. In his defense, he was just trying to help.
It’d be great to see Old Bill again but I can’t blame him for a moment if he doesn’t come back after the treatment he got.
I noticed he takes his own advice seriously. I didn’t see him “bite” once in all the time he was vilified.

TROLL procedure in the forums should be official and spelled out.
Anyone interacting with trolls, in any way, should lose at least 100 +1’s for each post to the troll no matter how clever, witty or logical their comeback to the troll is.
If they keep interacting with the troll after a couple of warnings, they should be ejected from the forums permanently with no exceptions. People who react to trolls continuously do far more damage than the troll itself.

I miss old b~~~~. Stop lurking ya c~~~ and come on back. Lost too many veterans lately !!!

Peace is > piece.

[G.O.A.TParticipant 1459]

Even when I was a lurker, old bill was one of my favorite member.

Money is God.

I enjoyed OldBill and hope he returns. There are several avatars I hope to see again on our forums. I think Old Bill liked the approach of the stoics.

Everyday above ground is a good one. Everyday above ground while single...better still.

I liked Old Bill.
I came here years ago and had no choice but to
travel out of state and work for a couple years.
when I came back there was many new guys and several
who I missed..
SoulMan was one guy who could make me laugh.
others have changed their avitars and names
Like gravelpit who I enjoyed debating way back.

Still this site will grow enormous and many will
find truth here.

when the menbership explodes and it will, be tolerant
of effeminate thinking males. Try not to judge too fast
about if they are TUNA or not..The brainwashing goes very deep!

always remember Shaming language among men is common and we insult
each other without evil intent.
Example: If I don’t see any of you assholes before the next mating season screw you all…

Still I give
Love and respect to all without prejudice.

I was bound to be misunderstood, and I laugh at those who misunderstand me. Kind mockery at the well intentioned, but unfettered cruelty towards those would be prison guards of my creative possibilities. This so as to learn as much from misunderstanding as from understanding. Taking pleasure in worthy opponents and making language fluid and flowing like a river yet pointed and precise as a dagger. Contradicts the socialistic purpose of language and makes for a wonderful linguistic dance, A verbal martial art with constant parries that hone the weapon that is the two edged sword of my mouth.

I miss Old Bill. For the last month or so I was thinking of sending an email to Keymaster to see if he could contact Old Bill to let him know I would like him to return. Looks like I wasn’t the only menber who misses his input.

My favourite from Old Bill was a thread he started about a dinner he had alone. It is in Top Gun. The line from that thread that will stay in my head forever: “sometimes no company is better than any company”.

OldBill was badass. His knowledge was supreme bar none.

Since no-one else will say it, here it is:

If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.

I believe OB revived this quote from Marcus Aurelius. Correct me if I am wrong.

Old but not too old – even if you are in hospital getting tube-fed, I am sure you won’t let the cute nurse give you a parting blowjob.

Where you are – be yourself. It was awesome.

[StealthParticipant 5328]

I read everything he posted when I saw it. I still keep an eye out for his posts.
I always thought of him as a kindred spirit in that he drops Epictetus into almost every situation and maneuvers flawlessly in the corporate world.

I like “Old Bill”: Lot’s of wisdom…

[DarkRyuParticipant 2354]

@oldbill is an asshole, but I like him. Some of my favorite people are assholes. Sometimes you don’t want someone who’s “nice” but rather someone that will say things the way they are and offer sound advice. That’s @oldbill

“I was picking up nuclear wastes when I was 21.” This line from him inspired me in a major way to go out into the world and become independent.

Would really like to have him back.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

Old Bill is a top bloke.
Hope he starts posting again soon.

Old Bill was an unimaginative man. If someone’s story didn’t fit his dower narrative, he made up things you never said to make it fit. To me he was no better than a feminist insisting you behave a certain way. His favorite tactic was to guilt you into listening to him by claiming you weren’t listening. All the while he was not listening. I understand the tactic. Soyboys are children who need to be spanked. But of-age males, no matter how lost, are still men who must be treated with respect if any bond is to be made and lessons truly learned. Old Bill calculated that the spanking was more valuable than the bonding. And now he’s gone. I’ve been gone for a year after a brief but intense intro and fights with Old Bill. In that time I’ve tried to cancel my membership and stop the auto charges to my credit card. I even got an email from Keymaster I guess saying it would stop and I’d be refunded. I just got another bill on my credit card for August. It’s f~~~ing laughable how mismanaged this site is. So since I’m still being charged, I decided to see what’s up. The first post I came across was this. Ironic. About my card still being charged…. I’m going to start a new thread. But how different is this site still sucking my funds against my will any different from a divorced wife? Ironic.

Old Bill was a tough cookie in his wordings.
i would say this: he has learned his lessons, and often tried to pass them to the Noobs in this particular forum.

Tough love? His love was as lovely as 80grit Sandpaper.
On purpose.

Understanding his intentions was only fro advanced brain users, so yea…
If him and a few others like “May/57” could get their arses back here, i would crack open a beer and celebrate.

At the end of the line…
These dudes, like so many others, they see no benefit coming here, they have gone to the next level, they have moved on.

Let them go. Let them walk their own way.

People come people go. Always figured he was using multiple accounts. Post style and content were way to common across a few names.
