The following is from a telephone transcript. Names have been changed to protect the easily offended. CCF moderator Confronter places a call to former CCF member Wednesday Comic Man
Mod: Hello, this is the Confronter. Is this ***** ******** aka Wednesday Comic Man?
Weds:Yes, how did you get this number?
Mod: Never mind that. It has come to our attention you had deleted your account a few days ago and we'd like to know why
Weds:I feel a bit uncomfortable discussing this. There were a number of reasons
Mod: Please feel free to explain. It will remain confidential
Weds:Well, firstly there is that weekly comic cover contest. I think it's biased
Mod:I assure you that it is unbiased and you will win when it's your turn. What else?
Weds:Well, there is that politics thread that is so loud and argumentative
Mod:You can always put a thread "on ignore". Any other reasons for your leaving?
Weds:I'm offended by the negative comments about Rob Liefeld. I happen to like his artwork
Mod:..ugh..I can't help you with that. What else?
Weds: There's that thread about Girls On Comic Covers With Big Knockers And Buns. I don't think that's tasteful
Mod: They already posted every cover that has Girls With Big Knockers And Buns. Anymore reasons?
Weds:There is that Pudding Thread
Mod: I agree with you there. We are working on it
Weds:Someone made fun of comic characters who wear both suspenders and belts. I wear suspenders and belts. I'm offended
Mod: I suggest you wear a sweater over all of that. Is that all?
Weds: That's what comes immediate to mind
Mod: Mr. Weds, it's my duty to inform you that we frown upon members leaving. The rates ProBoards charges us is based on activity and membership. I suggest you re-join the forum, even if it's under a new name
Weds: I'm sorry, but my mind is made up .
Mod: Mr. Weds, you know that everything you previously posted is owned by the forum under the rules of intellectual property and it's within our rights to use it as we see fit. For instance, that post you once wrote about how you sneak out of work early every Wednesday to get the new comics at your local comics shop
Weds: ....You wouldn't!! I have a wife and child to support
Mod:Speaking about your wife-Does she have any idea how much you spend based on what you wrote in the Comics Purchased Recently threads. Between the classic comics and new releases, it might be disturbing to her
Weds: Please Mr. Confronter-don't do this to my family
Mod: And what about what you wrote about your local comic shop and your complaint about how he puts comics high up on the walls
Weds:No!! No!! He might ban me!! Enough, enough. I'll come back, I swear, I'll come back
Mod: Welcome back to the CCF Forum Mr. Wednesday Comic Man. Hope you survive the experience
