Last night when I came home, I was alerted to the fact that someone on a certain wargaming forum had posted my church's phone number online, and was encouraging people to complain about me to my pastor.

It made me chuckle.

I had just come home from the church. If anyone had called, I would have been the one who answered the phone! grin

I almost wish someone had called. What on earth did they think they were going to 'report' me for?

Actually, I'm not even sure the church phone is hooked up any more. Everyone uses cell phones these days.

How confused would the church-phone-answerer be when they started talking about war gaming websites?

These guys are super-losers. Can't wait to see the letter-writing campaign. So 20th Century… grin

I don't have enough time to finish all my wargaming projects. Perhaps, since these guys obviously have lots of excess time, they could trim off flash lines or something for me. Oh, and I need some dowels notched for log cabins.

I think your servers/business is in Cali:

and subject site is in the UK:

Don't know (nor care to know) where your church is. Details vary, but many jurisdictions have similar codes.

TMP as a business is in New York; servers were in Ohio, last I heard.

The post was made on a UK forum, by an anonymous account.

That's a demented act typical of the cancel culture mentality sweeping the world at the moment.

I bet "he" was so proud of himself too… Idiots!

If they do try to call, it'll most likely be collect… LOL

Ah, wherever you go…there they are!

These folk should have paid attention to their mothers!..

Sorry, I thought there were PST time stamps from the servers. So …

Sorry, I thought there were PST time stamps from the servers.

The servers were originally on Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) for no apparent reason, later switched to PST because I lived in California at the time, and I didn't change the website time when I moved East.

Yes, this guy or guys are total morons. And yet they just don't get what a bunch of losers they are.

Note that Frothers has been offline for a few days. No idea why. Let's hope it's permanent.

"encouraging people to complain about me to my pastor."
Don't you have a Bishop anyway? I mean seriously people need to know what they are talking about in the first place.

At least they got the right state this time.

And then they were gone…

Funny it was a hate bill topic on another site that i was lurking on that made me become a member of TMP!

Bill, there is no such thing as bad publicity.

Speaking of Frothers, I've heard the owners are shutting it down next month.
