Whatever happened to Platano?

Anyone have any idea what happened to Platano?

He used to be a regular poster, but hasn't posted anything for ages. I enjoyed his posts because they were always interesting and well-researched. But, he just seems to have disappeared off the face of PBH...

He is writing in the Colombianblog, "the other site", most known as Cblog, the site of who used to write here as the name of Pepster. Is the same case of other members, like Quindioman or Kernow, for example.

Glad to hear he hasn't been kidnapped and is in fact alive and well. I didn't know about this other forum, I tried to visit it today but seems to be "members-only" as I couldn't view any of the threads. I'm still waiting for my membership to be approved. From what I've seen, I prefer the PBH user interface, I think Peter's done a good job there (and obviously spent quite a bit of time designing it).

I normally wouldn't "diss" another blog. But what the hell - I am flying with the Old Crow bourbon. I will give the reasons I do not post much anymore on Cblog.

#1: Katt - not to be confused with Kat1 here. They are different people. Kat1 here actually has a sense of humor and is civil. Katt on Cblog is racist and freely uses the words "honky", "cracker", "white trash", and many other lovely terms. She openly hates. And is supported. Some people call her on it - like me - but she is given free reign.

#2 is Rubito. No explanation needed for those that know him from here. He is always right, "F-you" if you disagree, expert on a dozen sciences, etc. He can help you with sound, expert advice pertaining to Criminology, Sociology, clubbing, language, music, diet, finances, world politics, bicycle riding, and any other thing he desires.

RJ- I wrote a similiar note to yours, not so long ago, about Rubito...I never understood everyone's fascination with that guy. Especially after a couple wrote about what a "softspoken gentleman" he is IRL. For me, this isn't an endorsement- why be an asshole here, if you know how to behave yourself in a civil manner?

Good riddance, far as I'm concerned.

I guess, John is talking about Queen (and not because of Freddy Mercury...).

In Cblog You can't think different from the self called "Established members" (Kernow, Rubito, the Lady Katt, Isa, Don JD...am I forget someone ?) For JD all is "nonsense" or "crap". Ask Monpirri what happened with him...Also you can ask Lauthra, Colombianox or Webmanco too about their situation whit this"groupie alert". A lot of people banned because of nothing...Lokitalinda, Vivi, Monpirri, Egon, Claudia, to name a few.

And not to tell that a lot of time "someone" blocked my account, and Persephone and Colombiche, my two angels...;) ever helped me with this.

But I met very nice people over there like Persephone, Colombiche, Quindioman, Billyb, ManTequila, Egon, Vivi, Lokitalinda, Monpirri, Latitud32, Desi, ColombianoX, Lauthra. Sorry if I forget someone, it's been a lot of time about my last post in the Colblog.

Lucas, cuando bloquearon tu cuenta yo trate de ayudarte, igual cuando bloquearon la cuenta de monpirri. Yo no creo en bloquear a los posters simplemente porque tienen opiniones diferentes, al contrario, me parece que siempre y cuando los usuarios se comporten dentro de lo que son los parametros de la decencia y el respeto por otros posters todo va. Yo siempre apreciaba tus posts, incluso dije que eras refrescante, porque aportabas un punto de vista netamente suramericano (conodelsureño jaja). Yo sola no podia hacer que reactivaran tu cuenta, no soy la dueña del blog y no tengo ese poder Lucas, soy un angelito mas de la corte celestial...... pero no soy Dios ;) ;) ;) ;)

Lo de monpirri fue una cosa bien tenaz, porque yo lo había invitado al blog y siempre lo consideré y lo sigo considerando como amigo, a pesar de todo el conflicto que se inventó allí. Lo defendí hasta el final cuando ya todo el mundo votó por su expulsión. Lo de Lucas, eso nunca fue sometido a una votación, fue una decisión que el dueño del Cblog tomó por cuenta propia. Yo tambien siempre defendí el derecho de tanto Lucas como del Egon a expresar in punto de vista diferente, mas latinoamericano y menos agringado como obviamente es el parametro normal del Cblog.

Kernow is great so is Isa she is an angel. :))))))

Meli, ya lo se. Por eso lo dije publicamente. Tanto vos como Paulette, siempre se portaron muy bien conmigo cada vez que yo les comentaba sobre los problemas que tenia para entrar al blog...aun a riesgo de tener problemas con el Admin por mi. Lo que pasa es q muchos le tienen miedo al Admin. Y por eso prefieren callarse cuando te descalifica con un..."this is a nonsense" o "crap". Me acuerdo cuando me dijiste lo de "refrescante" y lo del punto de vista del cono sur, fue en uno de esos posts de discusiones...jaja. Igualmente ya no tenia sentido seguir alli, ya que toda la gente con la que me llevaba bien ya no estaba.
Lo bueno fue que siempre pude decir lo que pensaba.
Desi, vos tambien siempre estuviste correcta conmigo y con Egon. Incluso te llevabas muy bien con él. Pero bueno el tema era personal del Admin conmigo. Y de un par de "hienas" (Lady & Pirate). Con Rubito, a pesar de que concuerdo con la opinion generalizada, nunca tuve problemas a nivel personal.
Kat1, con vos no tengo problemas. Al contrario nunca me agrediste ni estuviste mal conmigo. Me acuerdo cuando te hice el Thread de tu parecido con Shakira, y cuando nos contamos anecdotas de Soda Stereo. Y bueno nada. Se fiel a tus principios. Me parece perfecto. Es lo que hago yo.
Y vuelvo a decir: Mis dos Cblog Angels fueron Meli & Pauli ;)

Find myself agreeing with you Lucas Freley regarding "Established members" on CB. This small clique will conspire to silence you or have your comments deleted by one of the multitude of moderators. The site could be helped if there were more moderates (philosophy and politics) posting. Pay attention to the current discourse there because it won't be long before they run cam0940 off the site!

I hasten to add that there are some very nice and intelligent people on the site. JD has always been encouraging and luckily for me at least rubito has never attacked me. If you can read his comments with out getting hung up on his posturing you will find cogent and helpful information. Frankly, I found Reina very provincial and oneself (I think that was his moniker) over the top racist.

Of course I remember Cam. One of the most intelligent people that I ' ever meet on the Internet. He was too clever and smart to a site like colblog. Also his spanish was perfect. And though sometimes we disagree, he never attacked me, he was very respectful. But this "groupie alert" was so bother to a guy like Cam. I just add that under the "established members" there are other group of "lamebotas" like quijanoswife, cachaco, maybe rabeka, and other guys/pals that ever acclaim, applaud and celebrate JD, Kernow or Rubito jokes and contemptuous commentaries.

John...hahaha. Either do I. But when you begun to know her...you will find that she is a cute girl...

Nobody is making anybody to go and post there, if you don't like the rules over there or the members or if you think the site is unfair then just stop going over there y punto.

Lucas you have no idea what you are talking about. There is a vote that is taken that is true but your speculation on how I voted in your case could not be further from the mark. I think I only voted 2 members off in a couple of years. One of those people actually hacked into CBlog and altered private messages between members to make them look like something they weren't. I think that should be a ban don't you? The other person was asked politely on many occasions, given many chances and chose to behave in a manner not considered acceptable under the forum's rules and I voted to ban that person as well.

By the way, congratulations on Argentina's showing in the Rugby World Cup, I was very impressed with the team, their strength and their strategy.

Verdad, yo entiendo pato.

I would also like to make one more comment about the "other site". In the past, I defended it. I promoted it, enjoyed posting, and became friends with a member or two. In my opinion, and that is all it is, I have very little interest in it now. It is openly racist - like JS stated. I singled out the offender that stuck out in my mind the most, but others were / are guilty over there as well. If you want to see people stereotyped and generalized from the southern US, go to Cblog. We are white trash, honkys, trailer park living dim-wits, crackers, etc add nauseum. There are a few select posters that appear to actually get off on making fun of anybody that is white, living south of the Ohio River, north of Orlando, and east of the Mississippi. But don't worry, Arkansas, Texas, ... well, anybody not on the coasts are also included as crackers over there. We are just "fly over" country. And I am not even making this filth up ... I paraphrased some of the shit that I read with my own two eyes.

Now that I said that, let me also say there are some very good people over at the other site as well. I would say the majority are. There are a few personalities over there that are just out of control, and dominate the site. I have gone from thinking the other address is a little more mature, to thinking it is a women's club or a beauty salon discussion group. If you aint' part of the click, you are tolerated at best - but most likely ridiculed unless you are extremely careful as to not offend those that are allowed to call you honky.

Web, aqui esta el plantano pa el sancocho.
I met on line a girl that was kicked outta c-block (what a piece of costeña ass, oh my goooddddddd)
She contacted me via PM soon after getting attacked by everyone there.
Anyways, she expressed views similar to a girl that used to post here, living out West, cant remember her handle, they both share a not, very popular position.
colombiano come colombiana y colombiana come colombiano
They were very vocal about their opinions, except the girl who used to post here just stopped posting while the other girl posting on the other web site was attacked by all and completely wiped outta there.
Her name was Claudia and I don’t believe she ever posted on PBH.
Anyway she sent me a PM, I think she dug me but was about to marry or was already married to some corroncho from Santa Marta her parents home town.
In her words “un gorda india cachaca (dique kkkat) de Bogotá married to some southern hillbilly attacked her with a vengeance and they all joined in pouncing on her and later kicked her out.
She was thinking of posting on PBH but was afraid of getting pummeled here too. I told her there was a girl here with same views and was free to express her opinions with no problem. .

I think it isn't proper to have threads trashing other forums or bringing up old spats. Personally, I reserve my opinions.

I have met wonderful people on both forums.

RJ I do apologize, I have used the word cracker before, but it wasn't meant to isolate or pick on white people... I have been know to use words like spic, spiccola, wop, gino, nipper, hick etc etc. It is all part of my dark, politically incorrect humor but it is not meant to be taken seriously, I just use terms like that to make my posts more colorful, como decia Betty la Fea "Yoo soy asiii".

I really wish that we could all just leave behind whatever happened in the past in distant lands and be happy.

Colombiche, no reason to apologize. But I appreciate it. My beef was with others who used those terms, and more, on a consistant basis with the holier than thou, elitist attitude. Totally different context. I never got the impression that you hate or are racist. There were / are others though that truly loath and hate people based on what kind of car they drive, what part of the US they live in, and so on.

When is used in malice then it should be deleted. Thank god I was raised in NYC where we have to get alone or else. In my crazy hippy days all my friends were white modefoques then I began hanging out with uptown spics.
The only thing I do have a problem with is republican spics. My idiotic Puerto Rican postal working buddy is a Fox News loving republican.
I tell him all the time. “look you fokin low life spic what the hell do you have in common with the party of the rich, they see your Puerto Rican ass in their neighborhood and they’ll call the cops on your dumb ass‿ Yeah but I was in the Army‿ he says. “Army or not you’re just a fokin mofongo loving spic, wake up an smell the coffee you stupid jerk, them republican foks would like nothing more than to go back to days of Ozzie and fokin Harriet or Leave it to fokin Beaver when there were no blacks or spics..

cblog is a cult, where people hold hands in agreement with themselves, the site is not really about Colombia, it's more like a personal site, where the ruling gang love to chat about what they dislike most about colombia and they love to disfigure other countries in Latin America.
The site is for a group of subjects with ideas in pro of baised media, pro egocentric in nature, pro other country, pro corny jokes, it is more for the the political correct within the cblog cult! They want to feel that they are part of something, they love to be feel that they care for each other.
It's really a waste of time!

Elmo, you're forgetting that the world doesn't revolve around New York City. Way back in those Ozzie and Harriet days until the late 60s/early 70s, little old Lorain, Ohio (supposedly) had a higher concentration of Puerto Ricans than any place outside of San Juan. They all came to work in the car factories, the steel plants and the ship building plants - including American Shipbuilding, the family business of a quiet, unassuming man known as George Steinbrenner. I grew up in the lily white countryside not too far from Lorain but knew Puerto Ricans (and a LOT of other immigrant groups from the Cleveland area) far before I ever met a Mexican.

Monpirri si estas hablando de mí o de colombiche te ruego que bajes el tono. Yo entiendo que estas resentido por tu expulsión del Cblog. pero las unicas dos personas que participaron en la votación a tu favor (colombiche aun no era moderadora allí) fuimos rubito y yo. Yo te invité al Cblog porque quería que participaras en las discusiones sobre la música colombiana, que creia era tu gran interes y porque queria ensanchar el enfoque del blog hacia los temas latinoamericanos y colombianos. Te metiste en discusiones tontas con Kernow primero (el tiene muchos amigos en el Cblog, es una gran persona) y despues con raimundo y todo el mundo con lo cual te ganaste tu expulsión.

Estoy hasta la coronilla de la chismografía de este thread; para mi ambos blogs sirven su proposito de difundir información turistica, sociocultural y sobre la cotidianidad colombiana; tienen gente muy chevere y bien informada, sus due¨nos Peter y JD les dedican mucho trabajo y esfuerzo y la gente como nosotros les trabajamos gratis solo por el placer de ser parte de la cadena informatica sobre Colombia y contribuir al buen funcionamiento de estas comunidades pro-Colombianas en el internet. Mis agradecimientos y mis respetos para los dos!

Ahora, como bien se sabe, nadie es una moneda de oro para caerle bien a todo el mundo. En ambos sitios tenemos un grupo de personas supremamente heterogeneo, representando a todos los continentes, etnicidades, nacionalidades, edades, condiciones socioculturales, filosofías y corrientes politicas. Hay sitio para todos; mientras exista respeto mutuo.

That was a tongue in cheek comment Monpirri, one of my corny jokes.

I simply meant you can do as you like when it is your forum. You can be the dictator then. You disagree with something, off with his head. We seem to be losing sight of a few things, the sites both have to have rules, some people will naturally prefer one site to another. You will never please everyone all the time.

I agree with you Monpirri that this site is more about Colombia and I am glad it is that way, it is perfect for you, but you seem to have deep issues of a more personal nature with CBLOG. No matter how much I don't like a site I think it extremely peevish to want to destroy it. Just ignore it.

Wow...todo lo que me perdí...

Maninred, muchisimas gracias por tus conceptos hacia mi persona. Nobleza obliga, pienso lo mismo de vos. Y eso que a veces alentamos a un contario (yo fui por los Springboks en la final, y vos por Colombia el martes pasado). Pero eso es lo bueno, que igualmente nos respetamos.

Kernow, gracias por tus felicitaciones de Los Pumas. Yo creo que desde que varios jugadores estan en equipos ingleses y franceses, mejoraron muchisimo su nivel. Y jugaron con una garra y corazon, como nunca antes habian tenido. Sobre el otro tema, lamento si estoy equivocado sobre vos, pero es la percepción que yo tuve y tengo. Tal vez si hicieran publico los motivos de porque expulsan o prohiben la entrada a alguien, tendrian mas credibilidad. De la forma en como manejan los temas la gente se forma percepciones...que tal vez son erroneas...o no...pero que se van metiendo en el subconsciente hasta hacerse reales. Como sea, el problema personal lo tenia Pepster conmigo. Y bueno que va a ser...

Reina...claro que fui a ver a Soda. Llenaron 5 veces en River Plate (batieron todo tipo de record con mas de 350.000 personas). Y yo ya fui a dos. Y ya tengo entradas para el ultimo concierto el 21 de diciembre. 3 horas de concierto...30 canciones...terrible. Me alegro que te haya gustado. El sabado tocaron en Bogota y lo llenaron tambien. Fueron 60.000 personas. Mi amiga Andrea estaba enloquecida. "De aquel amor de musica ligera...nada nos libra...nada mas queda..." Gracias Totales...

Desi, solo voy a agregar que los Admin...ganan plata con estos sites. No lo hacen en forma gratuita ni por caridad. Esta perfecto, es su negocio. Con lo cual los agradecimientos estan bien...pero en realidad ellos debieran agradecernos a nosotros que somos los que con nuestras visitas le damos vida al site, y colaboramos en forma totamente desinteresada (bueno la mayoria) aportando nuestros conocimientos en todo lo que nos sea posible. Todo en su justo limite.
