JohnnyGalaga, a friend from Batlabs, posted a SINGLE LETTER on the thread on QRZ in support of Hamsexy, and has been banned. A single letter… Not offensive at all… I’ve seen it.
Just for fun (and because he threatened us not to), here are some letters between KC2KIT (James Vooght) and our favourite secret squirrel, QRZ_EDITOR (the guy who claims to both work for the Pentagon and also claims to be a retired Naval officer, who says he is in hiding because of the 9/11 attacks). For your enjoyment, the Kinder, Gentler side of QRZ management. (These letters posted with the express permission of KC2KIT. As for QRZ_EDITOR… well…. he can go back to the world of pretend and continue to act tough behind his anonymous keyboard). Your threats mean about as nothing to us as your so-called authority.
From: QRZ_EDITOR
To: KC2KIT
Mr Vooght,
1st and foremost, QRZ is a private site and you are a guest here. Act like
you would expect someone visiting in your home to act.
What is and isn’t QRZ’s problem with Hamsexy is none of your business.
Simple.
“Or how about I call my lawyer for character defamation from you?”
If you can find a lawyer who will take your money and case, go for it, but
as someone that has been on the Internet as long as you are old, you do not
have a snow balls on a hot asphalt parking lot’s chance. Save your money.
I have reread the thread 4 times and can find no where that WX7B is
attacking anyone, in fact, I found his post to be civil. His posts to you
do nothing more than telling you that his business is his, not yours.
If you have a problem with QRZ, we will be more than happy to solve it for
you.
ADMIN
And KC2KIT’s repsonse:
Dear Nameless Admin,
1st and foremost, I understand that I am a guest in your home. But I don’t expect to be treated like a junkyard dog by another one of the houseguests while I am visiting your house. I feel as though your moderation staff and methods leaves a little to be desired in my opinion. The fact that someone can jump in my case for me voicing my opinion (this is America correct?) when I feel there have been injustices done on part of your staff. Secondly, why are we hiding behind a name? You know who I am, you have my address and if you were creative enough you could even get my telephone number and place of employment? It does not instill confidence in the fact that you are performing your duties efficiently and equally amongst all the members of your forums.
And it is my business what QRZ’s problem is with Hamsexy. As a member of both forums, I don’t want to feel as though I will be persecuted (Historically as other Hamsexy members have on QRZ) for my other memberships in other sites. If you think being a member of a site that is non-wholesome, I also subscribe to a porn site, and I’m sure 90% of the men on the internet do as well.
Another thing… “Or how about I call my lawyer for character defamation from you?” If you read properly, I said that it was a ridiculous statement. I don’t have the time nor the patience to sue a website because one of your people pissed me off. I said it to illustrate a point.
Lastly I am glad that your perception’s of people’s comments overrides my feelings on their comments. Sorry if that bother’s you but I feel that WX7B has an axe to grind and wants to sharpen his blade on anyone that disagrees with him. I found his statements to be aggressive and retaliatory towards anyone who is a member of Hamsexy. Makes me wonder if he hates himself for being a member of Hamsexy as well. My problem with QRZ is the fact that there is a supposed list of rules that no one that has requested to see them has ever seen. Then the rules as they are quoted are not applied and enforced equally amongst the general membership. Then once someone raises that question, and presses the issue, they are banned. Swept under the carpet so no one has to deal with them. That is my problem, if you feel you need to ban me over, so be it. I will move on with my life.

And Secret Squirrel’s response:
Sir,
You have been removed from the membership of QRZ. If you can’t figure out
why, please don’t lose too much sleep over it. I have neither the time nor
the patience to deal with 14 year old mentalities who have no idea what it
takes to babysit people of your caliber.
As this is a private email and you being a 911 dispatcher, you should know
that a private email is the property of the person who sent it. It is also
our opinion.
As a 30 year retired military officer I am amazed at your tirades given
your professional background.
This is our last email to you.
QRZ
Once again, another insult to James based on the fact he’s in the emergency services. QRZ_EDITOR has a small penis that’s bothering him too, methinks. It wouldn’t surprise us – most of the chest-beaters with a Hamsexy chip on their shoulder usually have reasons to feel insecure – we’re easy targets. QRZ_EDITOR also banned James based on this e-mail exchange. How’s that for leadership? KC2KIT responds:
Nameless Admin,
I saw that I was “Banned” from your site. Sir, I will tell you that this will only perpetuate the cycle to which you and your “team” are trying to sweep under the carpet. I have it figured why I was banned. I have an opinion and I felt the need to share it, regardless of the fact that it is against what you and your “team” holds as ideals. Therefore, I must be silenced.
As a private e-mail, in my inbox, it is not only your property, but my own as well. And I will do with it as I please. Don’t think for a second that telling me that these communications are your property is going to make me think that I cannot share them with my friends. Nice try at a cover-up, it was a valiant attempt, but an attempt in vain on your part. Being a 911 dispatcher has nothing to do with that fact at all. And the fact that you call my thoughts, and writings “tirades” is just another small-minded jab at me. You wonder why you have the problem you do.
I express my opinion as I do many places on the internet and in my personal life, and you have banned me for it. All because of another website, Hamsexy. You are cleansing your site of anyone related to Hamsexy, just like another man in the history of our world. He tried ridding the world of a people that did not take with his ideals. If I recall correctly, Adolf Hitler killed himself in a moment of cowardess at the end of World War 2. As a retired military officer you should appreciate that reference.
Whether it was your last message to me, I will continue to voice my opinions against the methods that you and your “team” utilize in “controlling” your internet populace. With that, take this as official notification that I want all of my personal information REMOVED from your servers without delay. I will check, and if it isn’t I will contact legal advice, because I do not beleive your site has permission to publish my personal information any longer.
Sleep well, I know I will.

Ah… as VE3HBD says, we so get a kick out of shaking the hornet’s nest. Carry on, Commander QRZ_EDITOR – you are such a source of mirth and amusement. I think you’re break’s over and you’re needed back down in the galley peeling potatoes. And your check’s in the mail.
