This is getting absurd.

I know this isn't my fight. Further, I know I have little influence here. But I also know that this fight is ridiculous.

WHO CARES who started it? Dwarfman and Doggz have an issue that is personal, and whether or not one of them is at fault is irrelevant. This should not spill over into IRC or the FTR boards, because it has no place here.

If you two both need to feel like you're right, then meet each other by the swingset at 3:30. Otherwise, drop it and get over it.

With regards to IRC, I'm of the opinion that such fights/confrontations/personal attacks ought to be grounds for being banned. I have no interest in seeing this childish crap going on in a poker chat room, or on a poker forum.

Personally, I don't think either one of you should be mods until this gets sorted out, and I don't think anyone who uses the boards or the IRC channel to argue, bitch, complain, accuse, or generally to swing their virtual dick around should be allowed back in, let alone be put in charge.

I have no personal problem with either Dwarfy or Doggz. In fact, the few times I've chatted with Dwarfy, he struck me as a pretty cool guy. I have had no dealings with Doggz, and therefore have no reason to think otherwise of him. But the bickering has gone on long enough, and if you two want to carry it on, that's what PMs are for. Don't subject the rest of FTR to your personal melodrama. Please.
