View Full Version : ********** can't be serious...

Well, I cannot post on ********** anymore, so I figured I'd post my complaint on here, and allow some of my old ********** friends to go over there and complain for me (if ya want :D ) This is ridiculous.


Let me just get to the point. They had a thread in which someone was critcizing Greg Leon (rightfully so in my opinion) and later on in the thread I made the statement that Boxingscene is better (for a couple of a reasons) and I was banned. Coincidence? I think not.

********** can't handle the criticism I guess. Really I didn't even criticize them, I just talked about how Boxingscene was better. ********** is starting to get gestapo like that Nazi Icheehuahua and his Maxboxing site.

********** also engages in childish little internet wars with ********* and other websites.

:boxing:

Just thought I'd vent....had to get it out. It's getting ridiculous.

I don't know; I post on a few sites and moderate on one of them. Its just not good practice to openly badmouth the site you're on and suggest that members join an alternative site. Its natural that this would be frowned upon. However, some site owners / moderators are more touchy than others, I've heard similar of BT. BTW, Ichee is long gone from maxboxing.

mate to be honest im not surprised, what ive come to realise is that the internet perpetuates some of the politics that are involved in the sport.
Old rivalries re-surface, niggles and past fueds can manifest as people are behined pc's and feel much safer in airing their views than they would face to face or over a phone.

Personally i wouldnt say anything to anyone via the intennet i wouldnt be willing to say to their faces, sometimes its better just to take a deep breath think **** it who cares, they are just sad little people hanging on to their own little peice of internet power. Which in the great scheme of things is **** all and it will only diminish if they keep that stance on things.


Stick with the decent sites and dont get too despondent bro! Channel your energy into somink worthwile.

e.g. moi, since ive stopped postng so much i do more writing, something that is having a positive impact, 1. for the site i write for, 2 for the fighter involved and 3 for the game. Im covering a fight on weds next week and have set up an interview with a well known birtish boxing promoter for next week too, all because im filling the time more productively. Not engagin in bull**** rows and taking time over whom i respond to and about what.


look at it that way mate :boxing:

Yes, but I didn't openly badmouth them. Someone else started the thread. I just said I thought Boxingscene was better and mentined how it's free and they have real vids of fights and stuff, and I mentioned the babes of course.

BT was definitely tourchy, no doubt about that. That's ok though, that board is always so negative...I like this one better an had been posting more on here anyway. (^_^)

They banned me and took away my year long membership, because I was posting links to their videos (which were free or accessible without me even logging in) and they threw some big harrade of a fit over it and banned me permantely.....They are a joke, I have emails if people wish to read them.

BT has bad mouthed the ********* site, but i've never seen FN say anything bad about them....

********** is GARBAGE. They *****ed to Larry over at ************* and said they would sue the web site if its members didn't stop posting there articles.

And you hit it right on the head the second you say somnething other than ********** is the greatest web site on the planet you get banned.

maxboxing is top for videos , that is for sure , and the articles range from average to very good , except for michael katz who IMO think he is a boxing godfather but hasnt wrote something good in years.


as for forums , boxingscene is the best ? rick does a great job , he kicks the right people out and the posters here for the most part really cool guys .

As far as poster volume and compatability. I would have to say this is the best boxing site I have ever posted on. Intelligent groupings of people, and I like everyone. Even people who lay bear traps in the lounge sections, and those who use "Pacmans" scrotum bag as a facetowel.

Boxing Talk harasses the fighters into doing interviews, their a bunch of douches. I feel ashamed I ever gave them my hard earned money.

Here is all the emails they had sent me regarding me giving out free memberships.

Proof???

Well...I would refer you to this thread:

http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=29032&page=2&pp=10

But I see you recently had it deleted since we contacted you with the original email...what a coincidence.

Look...we're not playing games here. If you feel compelled to report something to the BBB, feel free to do so. Personally, I'd like to just forget all about the matter, but if you'd like to pursue legal actions, we can certainly go that route. I have plenty of screen caps from the thread over at BoxingScene that prove that you, SpinksJinx, was not only giving away our content (i.e. a direct link to the Larry Merchant interview we just posted a week ago), but also giving away membership details to anyone that was looking for it. In fact, you were even looking to trade someone for a Maxboxing membership. Not only that, but you went on to try to call me, thehype, out...saying that I don't get paid and I'm Leon's ***** baby who's happy with just doing the chats....any of that ring a bell. How about this:

"I hate Greg Leon and Al Mermini from ********** (haha) for ripping me off. **** on them and their corny ass website (your security sucks and is easily hacked to download your videos) Take your fake Brooklyn ass accent home to your wife and kid nobody cares about."

http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7594

Obviously, it's difficult to know who someone is just based off of a username from a message board....however, fortunately for us, you had been posting on the board for quite some time so it wasn't too difficult to track you down. When we found the following thread:

http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=272&highlight=email

it was pretty easy to figure out who you were....especially when we read the following:

I went over to **********.net, I signed up for a year membership for $59.99 and I get an email declaring that I had won the contest....You know what the prizes were?

Cory Spinks autographed shirt
Cory Spinks autographed hand wraps
Cory Spinks dvd interview w/ him signing the same shirt

As far as I'm concerned, given the number of free accounts you've probably hooked people up with, you got a whole lot more than your $59.99 membership is worth. How many 1 month, 6 month, or 1 year memberships do you think you cost us because of your actions...how much bandwidth have we lost because of you giving out our videos for free? Quite honestly, maybe we should be pursuing some type of legal action against you...I'm confident that my screen captures will go a long way in court. Of course, that's just way too much work...I'd rather just call us even and leave it at that.

Think about what you want to do, how you want to handle it, and then get back to me. But regardless of your decision, we do indeed know that your email and your account belong to the same person that posts as SpinksJinx on BoxingScene.

You're membership is TERMINATED!

The Hype
********** Inc.


This email is to inform you that your **********.com membership has
been terminated due to pirating your membership information with others.

Your IP address has been banned indefinitely.

My father always used to say, it's easier to catch a thief than it is
to catch a cripple.

Adios

Greg Leon


On a side note, They scour these boards all the time and I hope they do read this because they banned my IP.

But they can terminate my membership and ban my IP, but they still cant prevent themselves from letting the cat out of the bag on their "membership" information.

i think g. leon is a dick riding fool that dont know **** about boxing. i used to visit that site all the time. but i got tired of reading his biased articles on the fighters that promote his site or that show up on his mailbags. lately alot of people have began to call him out on that. when they call him out he will answer there other ?'s and ignore what they just asked him. thats how i found boxingscene. i was looking for something that isnt full of ****.

I don't really think you should steal from B-Talk, but if you do you should be smarter about not getting caught or bragging about it. However, maybe they got a small taste of what they deserve.

In any case...Boxingscene in my opinion is the least biased, although Rick Reeno seems to have something against Gatti I think maybe he dislikes the fans more than the fighter.

I'll take Reeno over Leon anyday though.

Your a stupid ****. First you steal content after that site hooked you up with autographed stuff. Secondly you cant even ****ing spell cory spinks name. Third your a fake ass hacker.
Fourth your ignorant you had a TOS when you signed up with your account. So you violated it and your membership was terminated that was on YOU. Maxboxing and ********** dont charge to make tons of money of memberships.
Boxing is not that big of a sport right now. Bandwidth costs money and as even Rick can attest too. That dont come too cheap.
How many sites have you been to that have shyt loads of pop ups or a donations screen to pay for thier bandwidth. Think about why boxingscene or ********* dont charge for memberships. Its mainly photos and articles. No Videos. when you add up 10MB videos streaming to 500 people it adds up.
You make a lot of harsh accusations for someone who once again cant spell Cory Spinks about btalk harrasing fighters for interviews? Look at the chats they have. Tito, Wright, Hopkins, Rahman, DLH, Tyson and Mayweather/Gatti back to back.
Why would people do chats with the fans if the site harrases boxers? lmaooooo
You should be ashamed to call yourself a boxing fan or even entertain the fact that your a boxer.

Umm dude, the point I am making with those links is that I wasnt even signed in onto my computer. So basically it isnt stealing it is out in the open, no hacking nothing involved.


Second of all, they didnt hook me up with free ****, the only thing I received was the shirt that is it. Which is why I am so bitter, they ripped me off....




Cory Spinks is how is name is spelled, and grammar errors have nothing to do with being a fan of anything.

********** can't handle the criticism I guess. Really I didn't even criticize them, I just talked about how Boxingscene was better. ********** is starting to get gestapo like that Nazi Icheehuahua and his Maxboxing site.

:boxing:

Just thought I'd vent....had to get it out. It's getting ridiculous.

Homie...I'm the only one that has the ability to ban people at **********...and I don't recall banning anyone for saying anything about Boxingscene. That just sounds ridiculous. If that were the case, I'd use some type of word censor to prevent people from typing the name Boxingscene...kind of like ********boxing substitutes ********** with the word Butttalk.vomit (or something childish like that).

Honestly, we have no problem with people coming onto the boards and talking about other sites. Boxingscene is a great source for downloading copyrighted material...but as far as content goes, I don't think they or any of the other sites can touch our content. So really, feel free to talk about the other sites on our boards.

I don't even recall banning anyone that goes by the name of Super_Lightweight. The only person I've banned recently was an individual who made racist statements. If you were banned and you felt that it was for no reason whatsoever, you can certainly email me at thehype@**********.net and get the issue resolved. No need to vent on another board...just go straight to the source. But like I said, I don't even think that you were banned so you're going to have to elaborate on that matter. Feel free to contact me if you'd like to tell me what happened.
