Looks like the denouement is finally at hand....from the HFStival site.
An open letter to the users/admins of bigyawn.net and 930.com,
Admittedly, our actions this morning and afternoon were ridiculous, to say the very least. We were slightly bemused at the action Big Yawn took in reporting an entirely made up joke on our site as news, and further upset that they made no mention whatsoever of us as a source. It does a great disservice to the readers of Big Yawn to think that there's an shred of truth in that at all, and had it been cited as coming from us, it clearly would have been discredited out of hand, since after all, we're HFStival.com.
That said, our actions just went way overboard. It was totally unjustified for, and we take all the blame. In our defense, we are HFstival.com, and as such, what were you expecting? We're clearly not a classy forum for DC-area music discussion like bigyawn.net or 930.com and we don't pretend to be. We're mostly uncultured and idiotic, and the mere fact we're on a board unofficially dedicated to an Infinity Radio sponsored festival show should speak to that.
I would like to point out that the vast majority of HFStival.com posters had nothing to do with any of these actions whatsoever, and it is not a reflection of our administrator or his staff who, to the best of my knowledge, had no prior knowledge and gave no consent to these actions whatsoever. It was a bunch of idiots taking what they thought would be funny far, far overboard.
So, we apoligize openly to bigyawn for our attack on them and apoligize as well to 930.com for this apparently affecting the traffic of their board as well. We also apoligize if this brought any black eye whatsoever to WHFS, which, while sucking hardcore, doesn't deserve to be linked to our horrid actions. Hopefully we can all just agree to leave each other alone, and we can all go back to some sense of normalcy; you folks with your discussion and us with our subhuman ape people throwing feces at each other.
Sincerely -HFStival.com
