Here's the Story on Jack Da Rippa

[JDR]

Moved from the battle.

ROFL thats where scott got the white boy comment. damn son haha. You might want to rethink your personals considering you copped that from the email I log in too when I was askin' TOYH about a week ago how I can change that since I bout got locked out of my account by peepin' it wit my phone. I would of used it as a personal too if I had the chance but it's irrelevant.

[complexity]

Jack is leaving.

What this means is that Jesus will probably have to do the full 12 bars for the first round and find a new partner for the second.

What Jack has been accused of from Alpha Bill's research:

Not being black.

Claiming a different hometown.

A few other things in his life.

What should have never been brought up:

His father. I don't know if Alpha Bill brought it up directly or indirectly. Jackdarippa sent me a long message today venting his frustration about that part of his life being brought up.

Alpha Bill has admitted that he went to far in his research. People should think about that in the future. Remember, don't do something that you wouldn't want done to you.

Anything related to his dad has been removed completely. I motion that we keep it that way.

What we can't deny:

Jack Da Rippa was one of the best battlers in the history of this site. I think that should be taken into consideration when determining your position on him.

What he denies:

Pretty much everything.

w/e I hit plex up. I don't care if that nigga wanna play off the name shit cos thats my bad for never changing it but damn, i never had to fuck wit emails before

Jack Da Rippa - Tue Sep 07, 2010 11:58 am
now - not

Jack Da Rippa - Tue Sep 07, 2010 11:58 am
w/e I guess some niggas never lost anything. I come to illest to have fun and relieve shit writing but If I gotta dodge personals which is probably the hardest day of my life then I'd rather now

The question is in the poll.

Do you want to see Jack Da Rippa Come Back?

[Quix]

i voted yes!!!

get yoh ass back here Jack!

[complexity]

I vote for him to come back too.

For my part I tried to make this whole situation stop before it happened, but there is only so much you can do.

[FlipSide]

If Jack doesn't come back it's all of Illest's loss really. Dude is a phenomenal writer no matter how old he is, what happens in his family, what he claims, or what color his skin is. Not only did he bring activity but he brought some of the best verses ever seen on Illest. Don't know what it is with people feeling big because they chase other people off the site. This only hurts the site. And this time I am pointing the finger primarily at Bill because he takes pride in it and brags about it. If you're going to come back just to destroy the forum then leave again please do us all a favor, and go fuck yourself.

I Cant Agree More TOYH... And I Feel A Lil Angry At This...First of All Because There Is No PROOF of Shit... What A Couple Screen Shots? pfft... Fuck Outta Here... Shows How u Can Have 20 Heads Working On One Verse Really... REALLY!!!! Im At A State of Shock At The Bullshit...And The Dickriders... Yeah i Said It... One Of The Few Humble Dudes.. Yall Just Scurred Of Real Competition...Thats The Only Concievable Way of Viewing This.

[AntiMaTTer]

cool story bro

whats the problem?

[complexity]

By the way. Bill didn't use his mod powers. Anyone could do what Bill did. I'd also like to see the dickriders. To me it seems like everyone is taken Jack's side.

[FlipSide]

I Heard A Comment Stating Other Wise :/

[AntiMaTTer]

so Jack got banned, cause he lied about being... white? or am i missing something here? Im new and dont know what to do

[complexity]

I'm completely done with this situation.

This my last post on it.

@ Jack Da Rippa - You really should prove that you're black. That's all I got to say.

[Kuhlerblynd]

Here's what I say. Jack should prove he's black and stop all the speculating. If he isnt white, then no one can claim him of trying to be someone he isnt. However, it doesnt mean he should leave the site. Dude is sick and only gets better. Its beneficical for everyone, vets and newbies.

[JDR]

This is stupid and needs to be squashed now.

I'll tell my fuckin' story but like I told Plex, it's just words and ppl will believe what they want. This is the same shit me and Bill discussed earlier.

I live in Atlanta, GA. Actually a lil bit outside but w/e. When I was younger, my fam lived in Dalton, GA (north of Atlanta). My mom was a nurse at a hospital in Chattanooga. She adopted two kids, a white girl n boy (discussed in the shout box weeks ago). She is Rican and my father is African American. I never or my sisters ever called the other kids brother and they never really called my moms and pops by they names due to my family thinking it would take away from their heiritage and family. It's def not easy living in Georgia with two black parents. Either way, I never signed up for this site. I use to battle a long time ago on another board and was the best on there, my brother tried to text battle and liked reading it (Jack Da Rippa is a pretty played name but I never changed it cos before I knew it, I had won quite a few battles). But, I didn't even realize the email issue until I tried signing in on my phone and couldn't (cookies saved at the crib). My brother came on here but never posted but wanted to text battle. Said he could not find any other site that battled actively. He was fixing Georgia Tech and was putting down my addy due to out of state tuition being so high. I said, lemme get the first nigga so ppl think ya dope. After I think 360, I battled again n then another one so I just kept the name for myself. Brotha aint never even thot about the site since that one night. All that shits been changed since (email, all that). IMO, this is stupid. Given the fact of how diverse this board is with race (white, black, indian, rican, asian) why the fuck would I or anyone else care what race I was? Also, why in the hell would I pick Atlanta Georgia juss to do it? If I was really hardcore stuck on Atlanta, GA, wouldnt I have rocked that shit in my fuckin location? Naw, I didn't put anything cos I didn't care. This is played the fuck out. So here's that shit for anyone that wanted to read it. Like I said, you'll believe what you want too and honestly, I don't really care what niggas on a msg board think anyways. I sign off and life is over on illest. This aint personal or every day have toos...its a fuckin message board where you kick it and battle for fun. I aint gon get no money or recognition from anything I do here so why care about something so much for it not to mean anything at all? For fucks sakes, juss have fun and write shit. Don't be so concerned with who leaves stays, whos white, black cos it doesn't fuckin' matter anyways.

Aiight, thats my story and I don't feel the need to discuss it any further. If anyone wants to holla at me, my email address is [email protected] and my aim is DariusFreeman86.
The Fuckin' End!

[LogiK]

I agree with part of what yezzir said.

[Omega Bill]

Let me start with, I've already apologized and have talked to Jack personally about the situation, and he even said that he appreciated me coming to him personally.

With that said, I plan on talking to Jack further and hopefully bring him back to Illest, and hope that no one else leaves the site in lew of this situation.

Now, I'm going to directly respond to your post, Yezzir:

"If Jack doesn't come back it's all of Illest's loss really. Dude is a phenomenal writer no matter how old he is, what happens in his family, what he claims, or what color his skin is. Not only did he bring activity but he brought some of the best verses ever seen on Illest. Don't know what it is with people feeling big because they chase other people off the site. This only hurts the site. And this time I am pointing the finger primarily at Bill because he takes pride in it and brags about it. If you're going to come back just to destroy the forum then leave again please do us all a favor, and go fuck yourself."

I agree with the first sentence, and I have sung his praises many times over, and even talked with Plex and said that regardless of who he is, he is a great battler and writer, weither Plex verifies that is up to him.

I take pride in running people off the site and brag about it. Please, show me where I bragged about this? Talk to people I talk to on this site outside of the site. I do not take pride in this situation nor have I bragged about it.

The part that really burns my ass is, YOU were one of the main cogs in that "Illest Detectives" bullshit that you, domino, and I were a part of. So for you to say I'm an "internet cop" is really just a matter of the pot calling the kettle black.

"Destroying the forum". Another good one. I've accidently ran off one of the best battlers on the site, one of the first mistakes I've made, and have already apologized, sorry that I didn't feel the need to directly apologize to YOU for something I did to someone else. But, when it happened to -Miilz, War-Fest, Jesodist, and countless others, there were an awful lot of cheerleaders stirring that pot.

I've done a lot of things for this fucking forum, A LOT of them behind the scenes, and not just with closing fucking battles and updating records. You wanna talk about activity? How about you ask who personally took time out of their day to e-mail, each, and every single user that has ever signed up that is no longer active, send them a personal e-mail requesting they stop by, check out the new site, and maybe even stick around and stay active. I can narrow it down, it wasn't you.

Again, Plex can verify that if he wants.

"And as far as bringing peoples families into shit that isn't cool".
"THere's more than enough info that everyone puts out about themselves on the forum itself. Why not just use that? Why does everyone gotta be so pathetic and go out of their own way just to get a 1 up on someone else?"

Never happened, even Jack recognized that I never talked about his family in my verse. Where were you when Rell was ripping on Cee4's fathers terminal illness? Don't think you backed up that one. If you did, sorry, I don't feel like going back through 2 year old posts to find it out.

How about when Rell went to a website I was on, got a picture I never put here, and then proceeded to smash me with it?

"And no I'm not looking for any beef. That's just my opinion. If you can't handle it oh well I don't know what to tell you honestly. You can try to diss me or call me out in a battle I don't really care either way. But, I'm just expressing my voice. If you take offense to it it's most likely true."

No offense taking. I have no reason to take offense to someones opinions, it's how you feel and should be treated with respect.

I've already taken my stance as a man and admitted I was wrong and apologized personally, and will be pursuing Jack further to try and keep him on the site.

Pimp C said it best: "grown men can discuss anything, and be cool about it, even if you agree to disagree"

I Might Be New But Iv Been Taking A Look Round The Forums Reading Jacks Stuff And Dude Has Got Skills Think It Would Be A Shame If He Left Over This But Its His Choice
