hey roger i am just telling you what i heard from njstraw and others. I know he was acting like a complete cock to chicks at the place and i personally got complaints from 4 girls at bar 9 alone and 7 so far in total.

I saw him like talking to you by the wall near the stage at Bar 9. I didnt think much of it i am like he is not stupid enough to hit on you i mean you are gorgeous dont get me wrong but you're anthony's g/f he's not that dumb.

But i was told he was sitting near you by the bar and then he was getting too touchy and ant sat down next to you and he was visibly upset but i was not there to see it. So i figured hey if more than one person said it and i put the fact i saw him talking to you at the wall together and so I apologized to 2 other guys for balloon not hitting on their chicks and stopped 1 from decking him. I just saw you guys left early and so i didnt want ant to be upset so i apologized to him as well. because he hit on a couple of chicks who were new members i didnt want them thinking all the guys were walking hard ons viewing women as cum depositories. I only said IF he hit on you not that he DID hit on you. i didnt tell anyone else i am not here to start rumors at all.

I just hold you ant and joe in high regards. And about 10 regular goers to bar 9 have stated to me they are getting turned off and dont wanna come out no more cause of people like balloon and i didnt want ant to feel like he would have to deal with this nonsense. I didnt wanna cause any trouble seriously i just care thats all man. I want everyone to have a good time and most importantly support joe thats all babe.

I didnt mean to step on any toes so if i caused a problem accept my sincerest apologies. I just hate when people like baloon come out and make a mockery of the board and make us look bad.

I just hope to see you at the next bar 9 and your shots one me babe.

I can at least confirm Gonzo's report that other people said they saw Baloon hitting on you excessively. He may or may not have actually been doing so.. i didn't see so i can't really comment (as usual).. but at least one person got the impression he was and said as much..
And I have to admit.. Anthony did not look to be a happy camper when you guys left.. but then again [blatant ass kissing]who am I to guess at the inner workings of radio comedic genius minds[/blatant ass kissing] maybe it was just cause you guys got trapped ala piano store at that table..

I had complaints about him even before Bar9 last Tuesday night. And I received complaints since...from women at bar9 and from pissed-off boyfriends who want to kick his ass. Most of them are probably the same people that Gonzo probably spoke to as well. And the situation seems to be well-in-hand, not to mention, since we want people to be comfortable and safe at these parties and events...we have unified front not to tolerate such behavior.

I also heard about the same thing Gonzo did about Ant being uncomfortable, and you guys leaving early...which upset many of us because we want you guys to feel comfortable at these events. We felt it showed poorly on us, as fans and board members, for such a situation to even develop. Perhaps some were so paranoid to this, that when Ballonnot interacted in what was perceived in a questionable way, some came to the wrong conclusion.

However, as for Ballonnot's other antics, there is just no excuse. I had a problem with him stemming all the way back to the Anniversary Party back in May. This is the thrid instance of such behavior in my book.

Roger, honestly I left somewhat early from Bar9 around 12:00 so all I heard about this topic was from other people.

As far as Ballon not goes, I have listen to the same complaints that TheGooch was talking about and seen what they are talking about. I am personally not happy with his actions which gets constantly worse during official or non-official board event. This is a bad representation of the board.

As far as Ant and yourself being uncomfortable if that is true, I would like to extend my apologies for the individuals and the situation in general.

Ballonnot is friendly with me. If anybody wants me to speak to him, let me know. AIM: jhibo

I confirm Gonzo's assessment. In fact he, Magus, and I were all standing there when Straw came rushing down to warn us that BN was getting out of hand and had been hitting on you. It was right after you & Ant left. The story was then confirmed by several other people later in the night and the next morning. It was said that he was hitting on you, but that you were completely oblivious and unresponsive (which is probably why you dont remember or why this is news to you).

It's no joke, nobody is trying to play any pranks or try to cause any trouble. And for him, this conduct is not a far stretch, he has crossed the line with every other female member of the board.

I spoke with him immediately Wednesday morning and warned him that if he even looked at another female member of the board, especially you, that he was dead.

If there is a misunderstanding somewhere along the line it is an honest mistake, we're only trying to look out for you and the other members who he has harrassed. If either you or Ant would like something done, you have my number.

I know that I apologized to both of you already, but I am truly sorry for both his actions, and that I had to intercede myself. I consider you and Anthony to both be friends, you have treated me very well, more than just some kid running a website in your name, and hate to feel responsible for being represented by a sleeze like BN, and for getting involved myself personally. I wish I had seen it so that I could have stopped any of this from happening, be it a misunderstanding or not. You and Anthony have my deepest regrets and most profound apologies that such a situation has both arisen and degraded into this. I am truly sorry. I hope that you will not let his actions or this fiasco reflect upon the majority of the members here, or myself as the figurehead of those members, and that it will not force you two to shy away or think twice about coming out again.

like i said no question balloon is a cancer for this board.

almost 10 members have stated to me they do not wanna come to the next bar 9 cause they are tired of having to deal with it.

I noticed him at the anny party but i chalked it up to a drunk who we will never see again. But then i saw him at straws b'day party at the strip club and he tried to be tough with me but didnt know who i was. Then at the next few bar 9's and i stated to people to watch out for him. I was told by some girls he was harmless then they came a crying about him. Then he tried to pull a skank and act like a douch and apologize and he felt that would make it all better. Then he tried the wallsttycoon aproach and blame it on alcohol and he thinks he is the first one to try this like we aint seen it.

To roger i hope i didnt cause a rift between ant and you cause of this bullshit little fucker. I dont want any beef between us at the next Bar 9. But i dont feel i did anything wrong except try to help and care. I dont pretend to know you or ant at all cause i dont and i dont know a lot of the newer people but i respect people as human beings who deserve respect most of the time.

I didn't really read everything you guys had to say on this subject, but I would like to say that, Froy, I do not get so fucking blasted that I don't know when someone is hitting on me. Anthony wasn't upset when he sat at the table, he was tired and wanted to go home from the long day. It had nothing to do with anyone but him. Sorry guys, can't help you hate this BalloonKnot, I only saw him hitting on the black chick, ShelleBink, and maybe Psycho Mark. Have fun with that.

well, at the anny party, I was real drunk and ballon not grabbed my ass. I asked him to stop but he wouldn't!

I felt so used! Doesn't he know that no means no. Please Froy, give him one of those stiff talking to's so this shit stops. That is why i don't come out any more!

And Thats The Bottom Line.....

Roger, nobody said you had to hate BN. None of us expect that anyone else here should form any opinion of a person based on their view of them. I think the point we were trying to make was that such behavior and unfriendly conduct seems to be the standard with him, leading us to believe that it would have been a far stretch for him to hit on you like he does everybody else. And I'm sorry if it sounded like I was accusing you of not realizing it through drunkness, I never brought the subject up like that, nor was it intended to come across as such. The words Straw used when she described the seen was unresponsive, to me that does not equate with intoxication.

I think it would be wise to just let this matter rest, no further good is going to come out of constantly re-living this or making any more out of it than already has been. Whether you were included or not in his rampage on Tuesday and at past gatherings is a moot point now. I know for a fact that the intent here was to not cause anyone any trouble or cause further headaches. I think I can speak for most of us when we say that we are merely trying to protect the integrity of the board, the safety of ALL the members, and the reputations and names of those who could be found guilty through association with the board and through going out into public.

Again, you and Anthony have my apologies for any of the problems that have arisen because of this.

I've herd all the same complaints -- and the one that bothers me the most is that the guy was doing something that he was told not to by a girl and he kept try'n to do it.
