For my 400th post, thus begins the Milestone Thread.


Did you hit a certain number of posts?

Get a new belt color?

Bang your 10th Asian?

Get a new ribbon you've been aiming for?

Down 5 Hungryman XL TV dinners in one sitting?

Get 20 "ups" on a post?

Win an event?


Here's the Milestone Thread to post about it.

@mmamessiah By that logic, you should have been suspended after Nik Lust tried to squash the beef between you and him and you antagonized him for a few more posts after that.

You'd have to show me the posts, but Nik isn't Greg so him asking to squash a beef and the creator of the site telling people to stop, two totally different things.

Greg had been telling you two to stop bickering. I don't feel like searching around for the specific posts. It is late, and I'm about to go to sleep.

Messiah, can't you just shut up for a day and be a decent forum goer.  It seems that everyday you're creating unnecessary controversy.  It really leaves a sour taste for many of our fellow Tapologists.  I don't know if you do it to be cool or if you're actually that pretentious, but it gets on A LOT of people's nerves.  I'm not insulting Messiah in any way as I normally would, I'm simply pointing out facts with all intentions of making these forums less angry.

oooooh man, so I have a harmless conversation with another poster and someone else comes in and attacks me out of nowhere, for no reason, then continues and continues and even ends up getting suspended for it, something that never happens unless it's warranted. And I'm still the one who gets berated for it. Allllllllllrighty then.

Look if You left the forums, there wouldn't be any fights. You're always starting them or involved in them.

@nik usually the first thing we'll say is to take it easy or stop or be careful.  it's often when someone persists that a suspension will get thrown on.  as for a 1 hour suspension? not a big deal.  it's just to make a point.

as for the example you gave i didn't see it so i can't comment.

i agree that messiah has created a lot of controversy and pissed a lot of people off, myself included.  he has directly caused some problems in the forums.  it's just the truth.

but in my view there has been less of it over time and some of you guys are making the situation worse by bringing it up at every turn.  @crum had 1 forum post in the past 3 days and yet he has honed in on this thread to tell him to shut up.  seems a little odd to me.

What seems odd to me is a big argument get's started in a thread that is supposed to be celebrating all of our great achievements here at Tapology lol

Damn.. I didnt know bout' this thread and i like it really.!! Thanks Kpro for that..

But i read some things who are not really in the thread.. It makes me tought at Davis vs Evans pre fight conf, when they debate who is the better wrestler.. Are u trash talking urself for promoting something here.?? I dont give a **** of who is the best at this or that, if we want to compare ourself why not make a real MMA tournament.?! lol..

I sware u Im more carefully to dont get it in the face than who is the better posting man or anything else.. Stats are pretty cool, but if its not friendly I dont give a **** bout' discussion..

Congrats T0rch/Almo!

Maybe two months isn't long enough to see most of Messiah's previous posts but it seems to me, from what I've seen, that he just has a very direct approach to discussions and when someone says something that appears as a jab towards him, he types something back in the same manner, just as I would.  I haven't seen anything out of the ordinary without reasoning or a reference.  Maybe some posters have subconscious residual effects of the way he posted before(?) or maybe I've missed some posts that fall outside my perspective, or maybe I've just been on too many MMA boards over the years and have seen every type of MMA poster and am desensitized by anyone's personality, but from where I see things he's generally level-headed.  I'm not defending anyone, obviously, as I'm trying to help my team overtake his team for 2nd in the MVP race this weekend, just giving a perspective from someone who's been here 7 weeks.

Anyways, this thread should blow up after almost 200 fights are entered this weekend, so good luck to all!

Thanks Kpro, I'd respond but I think we should get off that topic since this is the milestone thread.

I will note though, that I think those are the first two down thumbs I've seen you get lol, it's not good for your post score to come to my defense, no matter how neutral and well thought out it was. 

anyways, after tomorrow I'll have my 3rd stripe!

I need 10k this weekend to go from 1st to 3rd degree brown.  I think I can pull it off since I'll hit most of the ribbons for 100 of each weight class picked, 500 posts ribbon along with all the thumbs up I give , updated rankings, and I'm sure other ribbons I don't know of.

I'm rooting for you to get to black this weekend Yorma!  I think you're about 9k away to go from 3rd to black.
