In August of 2002, Pach stired-up a bunch of trouble on the Area51 MB. It prompted some severe measures to eradicate him from the board. I later joined the Area51 MB staff to held bring order to the chaos he brought.
Pach later approached me nicely so he could be a member of the A51 MB,
regardless of his past problems with the boards. I actually stood-up for him
against the other A51 mods so he could be a member. I figured he had a bad rap
because he did time in jail, but deserved a second chance.
It soon proved to be a foolish decision. Pach consistently broke the rules and
pushed my tolerance to the edge. I got sick of watching over him and emailing
him to stop being a jerk that I pulled his account. But this only came after he
managed to cause trouble on the board, which just caused more stress on me, and
the other A51 MB mods. Add the fact that I stood-up for him initially, the
aggravation in knowing that I defended a person that choose to be a jerk just
adds to the pain.
Then there is Pach’s script-kiddy grade "attacks" on news scripts of
SSRG and the 'Zone. Pach solicited password from staff members to gain access to
the news scripts to create obscene messages on SSRG and the 'Zone. Dealing with
these instances are not hard to handle, but knowing that I can no longer trust
certain staff members whom I trusted just added to the pain.
Finally, Pach and various other jerks ran a propaganda campaign on Pach’s site
his and message board (and even the A51 MB) to make people turn their backs on
me after all I sacrifice I had made to the community for the past 4-5 years.
What was sad is not his propaganda campaign, but the fact that people actually
believe him, including a few SSRG staff members. Seeing people whom I slaved for
turn their backs on me was unbearable, and caused me to snap.
