Moderators: Can you lock this?

WOW, what a disappointing waste of time. ROGUE has taken it on himself to destroy the intent of this thread... And he has succeeded. Congratulations ROGUE. You win... A VERY hollow victory though.

This post was written by me to answer the questions of TankGirls Friends in the community. I could care less what the rest of you think since you were not affected by TG's deception. The information was REQUESTED and was not trivial to me. If you think this was easy to write, or was just a self-absorbed ego trip, get a clue.

I have removed the post from this thread and am also removing all of my replies to ROGUE... This was never supposed to be a battleground, just a place of understanding. I made a mistake by posting this to the community at large. There are too many people who just want to make trouble and I don't have the energy for this.

I will keep my email open for a while, if you were a friend of TG's and you would like me to send you the story, please contact me and I will be happy to communicate with you in private. ROGUE, Please stop emailing me, and stop implying that Paisano and I are the same. It is really stupid of you and can easily be proved wrong by Nappy or any other server host.

TheGhost, what's the big deal? You should post in PTT and play in TT under your real self - i.e. Just another mid-30s guy that likes the game and the chat - and put TG behind you, and behind us too.
Most of us we know you're a nice person, articulate, clever, good sport and a well behaved player. And a prankster too - you pulled the master of all TT pranks! XD (Apart from the one where it was found Rx actually WAS a sheep!)
SK was impersonating a girl for a while, and several other (decent) players also confessed similar impersonatings (Max, etc.)
I think the only way redemption can come is by putting this behind us, and look to the future i.e. Late nite psychotic scrums! (which is what the game is about anyway) :)

I can say I miss you TG. The whole TG thing was fun. I believed you were a girl, for the simple reason that I believe anything people want me to believe. I.e. For me it doesn't matter if the player I play with is a dog (don't take it persoanlly KKB :P ), a sheep, a man, a boy, a girl, a woman, 20, 30, 60 or 15 years old. Ultimately this person is a cartoon tank, or a name in a forum.
Everyone is virtually epicine* on the net :) so there's no need to beat this whole 'TG is a man' thing over and over.
BTW TheGhost is a good player name =)

* It's the best word I could find:
epicine: one having both male and female sexual characteristics and organs; at birth an unambiguous assignment of male or female cannot be made

Heya Hugo....
you never cease to be amazing.

So, since the moderators won't close this thread, I am open to suggestions as to how we can stop beating this TG thing to death. In the opening (Revised) post of this thread, I suggest that anyone who wants to know the story can email me.
Maybe we can lock the thread and leave it at that? Close the thread and let people contact me via email?
You decide.

In the mean time, I will continue to check this thread, answer questions as they arise, and defend myself from any non-reasonable, narrowly focussed, or closed-minded attacks until this thread has run it's course.

Thanks Hugo for continuing to bring a voice of reason to this community.

I'm basically saying the same thing as Hugo. Why hide any more? You cleary want to still be a part of this community. I don't have hard feelings towards you, just wondering what it is you really want. Do you want to still play the game and post here? I think the harsh attacks on you are over the top, and I think accusing you of also being Pai are just people's imaginations running wild. I am not surprised and I am sure you aren't either that there have been strong reactions from people.

I think all in all you have been a positive force here with your creative posts and fun banter. I also have enjoyed playing with you in-game and reading your posts. I know that you were not up to some nefarious deeds. I personally feel that you should pick a name, and stick to it and be one of the many 'dudes' that unwind here and play the game. Yes indeed, this has been one of the all-time classic legendary pranks in TT history! For that my hat is off to you. But I would suggest that if now you want to gain people's respect back, just be yourself. Yeah there will be those that attack you, but they will get over it.

T.G Put your name back to Tank Girl and leave it at that, who cares what anyone thinks or says. It's your name use it proudly and play on. I do not agree with changing your name to Cloud, because you became a part of something as T.G. Why is there all this going on about this and that. Tank Girl was not a real person she was a contestant to play against. I use guy names all the time to hide my true sex. Does that make me as bad or decieving as what you think you were. NOOOO ofcourse not, even though I will talk and ack like a guy in a game just so others do not realize I am GQ. Big whooppppeeeee, Guys get over it and grow up, you included TG. Lock this stupid thread and get on with some important issues like where and when to play the next scrum game. I recently decided to stop playing the SW servers because of the names and sexuall inuindoes to me, but you know what, Who cares??? Not as important as being with my friends here playing good games when the losers are not around. This may only make sense to a responsible adult as most of us are. Right? Lets play........

I've got all day, TG.

Just hangin' around playin' with my kitten.

Janglestt.

^Stupid comment even in fun. Shows your disrespect for women.

Hey! See now that's EXACTLY why we need an adult section.

Be the bigger person and delete your post.
