I don't really find his posts funny but I guess it's good to have dissenting opinions around here for balance. I just find most of his posts a waste of time, and mainly he just seems to try to derail threads IMHO.

It's a bit boring and predictable.

I think we should be glad that we have people like MEGA_* here. Nice avatars, friendly signatures and exhaust notes all over the place.

@sTix



By exhaust notes are you talking about the amount of sh1t that comes out of his mouth (keyboard)?

Mega RJ Mical is a clever, witty and often funny member. I understand that he annoys some, but I think it's unfair that we ban the real account rather than the false account. Moderators should be wise and should not add fuel to the fire. Those who claim not to see the difference between the true and the false account are liars who take advantage of this situation.
I don't agree with Mega RJ Mical about Amos because I think we should let people try and encourage them. But there is no reason to ban him. Even if his avatar is hideous and we don't agree. Otherwise, we should ban half of the members and we would feel alone on this forum. Let us be tolerant and accept divergent opinions.


I have not seen any moderators (active ones) post any messages to these forums since I returned to visiting this site many months ago. In other words, I don't think there is any moderation of this site being done by anyone, but this begs the question, who banned the original Mega_RJ_Mical? I have written a PM to the site administrator asking this question, but no reply yet.

I don’t think I agree with him using RJ in his profile name. What if someone confuses him with the real RJ? It’s not up to me though.

Can we have a poll on this site for MEGA to change his Avatar name to MEGA_MEDI_ALI? Now I think that’s a poll that would get 100% support.

I do enjoy the posts of the original, accept-no-cheap-imitations MEGA_RJ_MICAL, but I also have a very twisted sense of humour, possibly due to being Canadian. I'm definitely not hot on this imitation with the unbroken pipe character in his account name, especially now that his avatar gives the incorrect appearance that he's a mod now.

My friends,

banished once again I return once more, because a thing of beauty is a joy forever or so said John Keats.

First and foremost, allow me to provide with you evidence of the fact that yours truly was not the overdoing clone, who ultimately apologized and even went as far as surrendering his account to me.

Also, a clue that the spineless mod who slithers in the dark and won't take responsibility for his actions, MIGHT be this "zerohero" person. Very appropriate!



With this being said and this evidence offered as sacrifice to the altar of truth and to your insatiable hunger from drama, two more things before coming to the inevitable conclusion of this post which might again be the last one before yet another ban:

First! Thanks to the friends who have shown support and understanding! Free MEGA!

Second! I am not Franko and I have said this in the past already. The fact alone that you suspected I might be him, makes me doubt of your cognitive health.

Now and forever,
VOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR


MEGA_RJ_MICAL,
Last_Editor of his own posts

@MEGA.RJ.MICAL

No one with half a brain cell cares anything about what you say, do or think and most of us could live quite happily without your pompous yet eloquent pointlessness. You should be on the stage with these sort of theatrics. Get banned / don't get banned from AW.net / fight Evil Ryu or become completely absorbed by blood lust like Akuma or stay VVVOORR-ing like Violent Ken, who cares?

Join a club, start a book group, climb a mountain, read the Bible but please pull your head out of the sand and realise what a pretentious bore you've become online!

Assume you take this sensible advice I will honour your memory with apathy and forgetfulness as is customary in line with your contributions here. Maybe without the internet attention you will simply wither and fade or dissipate like a bad smell given time.

God bless you though and I pray there is a socially well functioning and reasonable human being hiding beneath the bravado and cockiness we see from you here. May your vapid tendencies solidify to something cohesive given time away pondering why your here and how best to spend your remaining time on planet Earth. No hard feelings just very few feelings at all really.....

I beseech thee... twaddle ... twaddle... VVVOOORRR (please think I'm funny) ...YAWN... GAFFAW...CRY...Drowning in my own self importance...RANT

At this rate you're going to run out of regenerations by the end of next week.

@bison

@MEGA came to me in a PM vision. He’s not a troll, he is an Amiga Profit. He comes to save us all from the PC and spread Amiga salvation and wisdom. Don’t ban MEGA bow down and worship him for all eternity.

This is why I say, accept no imitations! While the doppelganger might have provided some cheap thrills, it lacked the insight and subtlety of the real MRJM.

Scary Ghosts of Amiga forum users past, I’m 100% convinced MEGA is Franko now. He gets restless and bored between film projects.

As to why the original ban was made I can only guess.

However, the site does have a policy against circumventing a ban through the creation of multiple other profiles - which is in itself, a bannable offence.

James Franko should stop impersonating other celebrities and man up and be himself. Not everyone can love all his movies.

@thread,

via PM's with Mega_RJ_Mical, I believe this issue has been resolved, so I am asking _Steve_ , or Sibbi to lock this thread (seems I can't lock it myself anymore), and returning to my Non-Moderator state of being. Please return to your regular state of Amiga enjoyment (or for some few of you, the continuous whining and complaining about things that you are barely interested in).
