| This is Lakers and I am posting this one time to have my say just like Porker and others had their say. TJ Hombre also has the right to wipe out this post if he chooses. The Lakers bashing is still taking place by a select few and they really need to get a life. If I have pissed some off in the past I do apologize but I post and say things that some people take the wrong way. I acknowledge that I did playa part in all of this and I did post some personal triats of some in defense of attacks to me. I was wrong in making fun of overweight individuals or others with personal problems. I spend a lot of time in TJ and 95% of it is not doing tours. When I saw Tmoney I was not doing a tour. Of course some of the same individuals jumped right in there bashing away. I have made myself accessible to many in TJ and when seen I will be hanging with friends whether they be veteran mongers, newbies or locals. I only do tours when I want to do them. I do go to TJ quite a bit and have been fortunate to meet many people who I enjoy hanging out with. Some here like Jimbo, Phoenix and others continue their agenda. With or without me any board will continue to grow and change in different directions. Right now many are still walking here on egg shells. On every public forum there will be flaming. Even without me down the road it will start up again. It happens on almost every board. Also if someone wants to post about me at least be factual. I wasn't in any fight in TJ this weekend and in fact had such a great time Friday night that I also stayed over Saturday night. I don't get into fights in TJ and the one time I got into a fight was to come to the defense of a friend. Yes, the Lakers ID is banned from this board. TJ Hombre told me via e-mail it was not for flaming but for the anonymouty issue. This also is very off base in reality. I probably know more mongers in person in TJ than 90% of the posters. If I ever showed chica reports or pointed out mongers I would lose all my friends and probably get my ass kicked. I have more to lose than most. My post was merely a threat to Porker which posters with agendas ran with. Seems like guilty till proven innocent. No one in TJ has ever been pointed out by me on a tour. I wouldn't want that done to me either. This weekend made me realize that I have the most fun in TJ not posting on an Internet board. I will soon be living within 6 miles of the border and plan to spend even more time in TJ doing non-zona activities as well maybe even looking to date a local. I like the place and it clears my head being in TJ if I am having a bad day but I still prefer living in the US. I have decided that even if TJ Hombre clears my ID in the future I do not want to be a poster on this board. I have several ID's I've created and access to many different computers. If I choose to I can play the game that was done to me by several in making it seem like I was such a bad guy. I choose, however, not to play that game. Those closest to me in TJ know the truth about me and that's what's most important to me. Real life friendships. Many of the flamers live for TJ through these boards and can't go as much as some can. I also will be re-opening my site this week. The reason I changed the name to Juan's Tijuana Tours is that I know too many people in TJ and I don't want to use my real name on an Internet site. It's that simple. I want to keep my business and personal life separate. My site will be re-opening with a lot of TJ info, including events, observations, reports and a lot of good info. I will also be starting a small threaded discussion board. It will be passworded so that even lurkers will have to register to read my info section or read or post on mydiscussion board. Shortly, I will solicit people I know to register if they choose. It is their choice. I have already had some friends e-mail me with ID's and passwords and they will b eactivated shortly. I will accept other registrations for approval to post. I will not tolerate anyone trying to ruin my board in their posts like I'm sure will be attempted. They simply will be deleted. So in summary, I apologize to the ones I truly offended if they took me the wrong way. The bashers who bashed me and made up multiple ID's simply to cause havoc can go to hell. They know who they are. I'm sure some of these individuals will continue to post on TJ Hombre's board where eventually they will cause the same trouble with the same ID or another one. The best of luck to all of you who are sincere in your monger adventures. I would hope that TJ Hombre leaves this post for all to read. This will be my only post on this matter. I'll continue to see many of you in TJ, on my site or on IRC. Lakers |
