How desperate would you have to be...
 

to threaten someone with legal action over internet arguments, and imply that their posts could be viewed as terrorism? Fvck, I just can't believe it :lol: Without doubt the most pathetic thing I've seen on a forum in years.

Please stop overreacting.

Yes, I'm the one who's overreacting. The guy who threatens legal action on forums and compares aggressive posts to terrorism... he's very grounded.

Stick to hating on feminists.

By the way, you should know that I've never liked Belgium and you're certainly not helping matters.

... do I dare ask?

The celebrity bitching thread.

It might just be a cartoon, but there's good advice in TMNT sometimes, such as that "like water over stone" line from Splinter.

Just not worth continuing a battle sometimes. I've seen friends, ok one online friend, proceed to do more damage to herself than her retaliation ever inflicted on anyone else she was upset with. Mostly it just resulted in her getting banned. Sure, she was mad and didn't care at the time, but once the dust was settled, then what. All that really happened is we could no longer enjoy something together that we both liked. Wish she had looked ahead a bit more and considered what was more worthwhile, a fun mutual interest/hobby we'd been involved in for a couple years or momentary online warfare that took it away.

Can't we all just get along?

Accusing someone of terrorism by posting on a message board, and threatening legal action over a few ad homs. Particularly when the other guy instigated it.

This ninja wannabe has seriously forfeited the right to call himself a man. I wonder how many cvcks he had to suck to get into the law business.

And people know it will be a travesty if I'm banned, since these other scumbags browse the forums spewing nothing but agenda-riddled negativity. I've created some thoughtful threads and in my time here I've offered more than Peanut has in his 14 years. Plenty of people are on my side, and we all know what's going on here. I'm the one who's most outspoken about it, that's all. Others simply can't be bothered or are too scared to speak out against the hierarchy.

How desperate would you have to be...

To excessively name call people, wish people harm and being hospitalized, making snide remarks on people's gentialia.

Bring up the recent passing of one's grandmother, and go out of one's way to insult another person's significant other.

All while utilizing the very height of sexist and ableist language.

It's so much it's hard to keep track on it.

Whoa when did the first one happen? That's f*cked up.

That's current. Over in the celebrity thread.
Apparently I didn't mourn her death enough and now I'm a sociopath.
Probably because of my gaping vagina and beta-male boyfriend.

From the horse's mouth

Yeesh. What the hell is even going on anymore?

Dave, I get that you're a proud man and have a sharp and sure intolerance for injustice, but If you have any issue, just PM me and you can vent about it to someone who will understand you and WILL listen. There is no shame in keeping some of these thoughts private rather than public, it is'nt running away from the issue either because you would have an audience for it, it's just if you keep this up, your stay won't be a long one, and you'll have vindicated the people you have an issue with.

Dave, just stop with all this please. There is no need at all.

There's a full moon, isn't there.

(Edit: Thought I was just joking, but apparently it is.)

I didn't insult her grandmother, I mocked her for not caring about her gran's death. Now THAT is fvked up.

Bringing it up at all is f*cked up. You have no right to talk about anyone's family.

Seriously, do you want to eat plastron out or something? Why are you so desperate to assassinate me, tattling on me and quoting my posts like a snitch. I never see you do it with anyone else so why me? You clearly intensely dislike me. That's fine, I don't care, but I'm sick of you piling on again me.

If you took a second glance over your last posts you'd see why. You've been very vile, not the fist time. And honestly, it's making the place less enjoyable.

And I am so tired of your damn outburst over the select few you seem to be very volatile about.

I'm well aware of what could happen. If that does happen though and they remain it will simply confirm what I've said all along. They are systematically wumming me, and loving. They want this reaction, don't let them fool you.

Without boasting, I also add far more to the site than any of them (when in a good and thoughtful frame of mind), so maintaning them and losing me is the site's loss (at least if I could be serene all the time and not lose my temper when provoked).

The thing that got to me was Ninja calling me a bully, whilst refusing to castigate Peanut. Also threatening me with legal actions and comparing my actions to terrorism. That is fvcking disgusting and it's no wonder I'm in the mood I'm in.

Thanks for the offer though.

Clearly I should have climbed in the casket, taken a selfie, and put it up on Instagram. I wonder if they even make caskets wide enough for legs as splayed as mine are apparently always are. No wait! I'm frigid! Or am I a skank! GAH! It's so hard to keep these sexist slurs straight in my head.

Aye, I've been vile. The rest have been lovely though. Why do you never tell peanut, or Cure, that they've been vile? I know why you don't say anything to plastorn - because you idolise her as a fellow feminist. What you don't realise is that she isn't a feminist, she's a misandrist.

As for making the place less enjoyable - 95% of Cure's posts are laced with sarcasm. He has never ever put any thought into any of his posts, which is the opposite to what I often do. Peanut does nothing but moan about how we're all losers who are destroying the section. Why don't you tell them that they're making the place less enjoyable?

you can say what you like, but your perspective is far from the universal or even majority opinion. There are many people who are on my side - they admit (as do I) that I take things too far when angry and blow my top with attacks (after provoked). But they see the arguments I make beyond all of that nonsense and they're with me 100%

You might like to think that I'm a universally despised outcast, but it's far, far from the reality.


That doesn't surprise me Stryker :lol:

This is what I don't get...just because you aren't speaking about your grief publicly? I mean, up until yesterday the doctors said my dad only had two months to live, And I certianly didn't run to the Internet to cry about it. Why would anyone do that?

The old straw man fallacy. Your lack of intellectual integrity disgusts me. Oh, and I hate attention seeking on social media. Proving once more that you know the square root of fck all about me, despite thinking you have me sussed.

As for your last couple of sentences - you're really, really **** at being condescending. And it's the same tone in every post. Please stop your witless inanity.

You're incapable of debate. I'm questioning your education. Send me some of your essays to verify.

Ah, c'mon guys... I think there's way too much tension on this forum as it is without you all having a silly row about not really liking each other. :ohwell:

No, it's because she said she wasn't really that bothered as they weren't close.

Some of you seem to do that thing where you talk about what someone is arguing, without being aware of what the content of the posts in question were. Do you think I would say she doesn't care about her gran dying just because she didn't talk about it? Wise up. It's because she said it wasn't a big deal and was more of an inconvenience practically.

Now, unless her aunt was Jane Toppan, I find that fvcking awful. Close to someone or not you should be upset when a relative passes.

Here's the thing: The only reason he even knows about my grandmother's death at all is because he tried to level my non-response to a comment he made in a thread as my being a jerk and ignoring him.

And when I told him about the epic ton of stuff in my life that had befallen me in a very short duration of time, making it difficult for me to keep track of every thread on this board I've commented on, he lost it.

Oh sure he said he was sorry about my grandmother then, but now...apparently I didn't cry enough. And now, from beyond the grave, he's insinuating that she'd be happy that some random nobody on the internet is attempting to take the piss out of me.

What he doesn't know is that she was not only English, but a spectacular racist as well and would have given him the dressing down of his life.

Well...I guess he knows now.

How...is this even happening to this degree...and it two separate threads?

Ahh, so you finally attempt to make a substantial post, and it's full of sh!t. I see now why you don't bother.

It wasn't a non-response, it was because you accused me of asking a sexist question. Even many of the other women implied you had an agenda. They KNOW what you're like. Jenna, MarvelDuckie, another couple whose names escape me - they were embarrassed by you, as women.

I didn't lose anything either, I said fair enough. The other stuff was understandable, but I was taken aback when you said you didn't really care. Didn't seem fair to say so but my true feelings are coming to the fore now. You disgust me for that.

So, because she was racist and English, she doesn't deserve to be thought of in death? I'm not sure what her being English has to do with anything - unless you're implying that she would hate me for being Scottish as a result.

My gran died too, she had plenty of flaws. For someone who fancies herself as an intellectual you seem oblivious to the fact that our grandparents were from a far more conservative generation where racism was tolerated and celebrated. Now, that doesn't make them or it right, but you should show some sympathy for how they were raised. You were born in 70s or 80s Boston, and things will have been reasonably better than when your gran was a young woman. I thought you studied social science?

And your gran couldn't have given me any sort of dressing down.

You lit the blue touch paper. You do this a lot - make judgemental comments not directed at a specific person. You don't understand that it's not necessary. I'm copping a lot of flack but have you ever seen me go into a topic, tell people they're useless and ******** up the place, and then exit? I never do that. But you do. As I said, your comments would have some merit if you were actively trying to improve this perceived poor quality. But you don't. You don't create any threads in everything else, you don't create any meaningful posts. So why are exactly are you moaning? You're gonna get a sharp one in the neck when all that glass shatters.

Someone's cursed us to live in "Interesting Times."

I want you to acknowledge that your gran was from a generation where racism was tolerated and therefore her mindset was hard to change. It's the same reason I bang my mug against brick walls when old people drone on about the monarchy. It irritates me, but I know why they're like that. It's difficult for people to alter the beliefs they've held for a lifetime.

I will also apologise for some of the horrible things I said. I regret them but I was backed into a corner. I turn into someone else when it happens, it's baffling. I just can't control it. It's no excuse, but my brain is simply wired differently. I have severe chemical imbalances which aren't being controlled because I haven't taken my meds for weeks. I am bipolar & prone to depression, so in these moments I just can't control myself. I am weary of the world at the best of times so this feels like persecution (I bet plastron will reply with, "you're right, it isn't, so why mention it").

I did have one guy on another site say that I'm a great and learned guy but I need to stay off the internet and forums. Possibly an accurate comment.

I guess it's clear why I say I identify with Raphael in these moments.

It's threads/arguments like these that make coming to this forum such a joy anymore...

Everybody just get off of each others backs. This kind of stuff is why I seemingly overreact and attempt to lock whole sections.

I'm not sure how all of this went down.....

but sometimes it helps to take 5 minutes away from your computer before you answer someone who may have insulted you.

it helps to think about their side of view and give you a chance to think of a better response that isn't insulting back.

2 wrongs don't make a right after all :) I know no ones perfect but we can all try to be nicer to each other around here.

Mate, there would be no problem if Peanut didn't judge people for their threads, or plastron didn't shove her misandrist nonsense in everyone's mugs.

Why can't people see the real issue here? Has anyone ever seen me take a shot at anyone out of the blue? Unless they did it to me first, or were being pr!cks to someone else? When have I ever done it?

I try to be nice and welcoming to new posters, try to get on with everyone. It's these other guys who are spreading negativity around.

I mean I was one of the people who was accused of '******** the joint up', because I created topics on homophobia, serial killers and euthanasia. These are common intellectual topics on every forum on the net, yet when I and other create these heavy topics we're accused of turning the place into a cesspool?

Why do Peanut an certain others frown on heavy debate? I don't even want to continue this tit for tat nonsense, I'd just really like to know why.

See, he refuses to answer. I try to appeal to his better nature - I want to hear a civil explanation where he explains WHY he finds those threads unsavoury. I ask him, I want to know. But he just ignores the plea. How can anything ever be resolved that way? It's impossible to understand him because he states that he has problems with things but he won't explain why in intricate detail. He just pisses on a thread and then doesn't explain what the problem is.

I give up, Peanut.
