Now THIS is how you clean up the General Board...

[bronzeage]

Who besides Le Jerque routinely dismisses the GB as a pathetic little forum?

I imagine it would be people who don't come here everyday to tell us that one more time.

 

[Le Jacquelope]

You know, this board is looking a lot nicer now without you trolls, racists and threat mongers polluting shit up. Wow. Interesting.

 

[Hg Dragon]

Bonus points for a Portal reference.

*acknowledges bonus points by raising Aperture Labs coffee mug*

 

[Le Jacquelope]

Oh shut up, HG Dragon. Please spare me any more of your rants. It's not like you or anyone else jumps bad at me in any other forum. You just like to hide behind this unmoderated board where you can't fall victim to a large crowd of adults like me who won't tolerate your bullshit.

You're too much of a mental child to survive on a forum full of adults.

 

[phrodeau]

A large crowd of adults like Le Jacquelope? You must be kidding.

 

[Le Jacquelope]

Phrodumb! Ain't been extolled by that giant spider yet, I see.

*quirks eyebrow*

I know this is feeding the troll, but here I go:

Um, unless someone has managed to jack my account, I haven't aimed any oher post outside of my first at you. The only other post I made was in acknowledgment of someone catching my reference. "Any more of my rants" have simply been hallucinations on your part.

And you claiming other people are "hiding behind this unmoderated board where you can't fall victim to a large crowd of adults like me who won't tolerate your bullshit," is funny. That would be quite the contradiction in terms if it were true. It's the fact that this board is unmoderated that allows you to prattle on with your trolling, attention mongering and flaming and allows other people to call you on the carpet and rub your nose in the stinky coil you just left there. It's unmoderated forums that allow people like you to remain and post whatever inane, shit-stirring thoughts that your fingers can tap out without fear of repercussions other than what other members reply, if at all.

About half of the forums I visit are moderated and I almost never mark/report outside of advertising bots and spammers. Only exceptions I make to that are on the ones where they try to keep a "family" atmosphere or a PG-13 level of content (Holy shit! Sometimes adults don't always want to talk about favorite positions to tie girls up to make them squirt while you have your cock balls deep in their throat and a 2 1/2 anal plug up their ass, all the while spanking them with a leather paddle that leaves the word "SLUT" on their bottoms, imagine that! Ok, maybe I shouldn't have created that particular mental image. I'll be right back...). When people start throwing up nip shots on the open forums there or start slinging profanities like an Arena football throws touchdowns, I'll mark/report it as they don't belong.

Good luck working through your persecution complex though. You'll make some shrink millions with the book when your sessions are done.

Hiding behind an unmoderated board.

What a strange concept.

And stranger yet, because on a forum without moderation, a poster who "jumps bad" "can't fall victim to a large crowd of adults like me who won't tolerate your bullshit."

You enlist the mob. You have a posse. Somewhere, out in Internetland.

But there aren't many "adults like you" who aren't subject to compulsory institutional care. It's almost as though you're suggesting that if the poster were in a mental institution, which would be a heavily moderated environment, the inmates would not tolerate his or her sanity.

Outside of institutions, people who "fall victim to a large crowd" are generally those unlucky casualties of mob violence and the madness of crowds. Lynchings, witch burnings, riots fall into this category. The mob is like a single brain with no reasoning capability, only emotion guides it. History shows what a dangerous thing it is. You present an attitude like Hitler's, to be honest. If you were capable of gaining it, you would gleefully harness the power of a mob to "take care" of all the ants you don't like. I guess we're all lucky that you have so little persuasive ability, and that your mental problem is so obvious.

It's never been mentioned on Fox, MSNBC, or NPR.

There's nothing that can occur here that will ever be reported there.

That's why this place rules.

It's a pathetic little forum.

And that's how we like it.

 

[Byron In Exile]

I just constantly feel like I'm having a party here, enjoying the guests, mingling, circulating, and you're always out in the street saying "FUCK YOUR PARTY! I DIDN'T WANT TO GO ANYWAY! SHE POISONS HER CAKE! DON'T EAT IT!"

Whatever. The folks that put down the cake on your warning just miss out on some cake.

It's you I feel genuinely sorry for, for the lack of party, the lack of cake, and the fact that even if I leave a slice out for you, you won't eat it.

Well, but isn't that just refusing to decide in the whole Cake vs. Death paradigm?

Here he is poised on the razor's edge, can't decide, and begs everone else not to decide.

The fact is, it's either Cake or Death.

There is no trip to Disneyland in between.

I still am not sure what my answer will be, but I feel that when Eddie asks, I will know.

 

[alabama]

Fuck it. Changed my mind.

It's a good sign that you aren't too disturbed by the fact that your thread has been taken over by people who want to help you. Put us all on ignore, you'll read us anyway. Nobody here hates you. You need to understand that first.

Right. He could potentially be a nice guy, but he makes himself out to be a gargantuan moron. Kinda like the guy on the corner who screams that the invasion is coming. Underneath the crazy might be a productive member of society, yet he chooses to stand on the corner and shout obcenities at whoever happens to be within earshot.

Death! Death! Death!

For me, anyway. I'm okay with that. I just hope it's humane.

I'm not against feeding trolls.

I am in fact pro-petting zoo.

hobby farm ?

There are all sorts of exhibits.

Here's the straw man: "OOooh."

Here's the beaten horse: "Aaaah."

Next upon the stand, will you please extend a hand
To Alexander's Ragtime Band! Dixieland! Dixieland!

Here's the bird with the broken wing: ".....raakaa raakaa..."

"Oh, we got trouble my friends, right here in River City."

 

[Recidiva]

Here's the bird with the broken wing: ".....raakaa raakaa..."

The bird who is pretending to have a broken wing and accusing the bird next to them and demanding their nest as reparations... (...litigate...litigate...)

And look!

Over there, it's the entirely paranoid prairie dog community. They've accused the zoo of pumping toxic waste into their warren to poison and silence them.

Really though, it's only one prairie dog left that drove everyone else away with ranting. The survivors have been given counseling and a new home in the prairie dog protection program.

We call it Area 5.1.

I wouldn't suggest looking him straight in the eye or offering him food. These are considered aggressive acts.

 

[Byron In Exile]

Death! Death! Death!

For me, anyway. I'm okay with that. I just hope it's humane.

Some people seem to know well beforehand. I do wish them well.

However, they're so often the ones who hesitate at that critical moment, and say, "no, wait... I mean..."

I prefer to postpone my decision until I'm confronted with the choice. And I think that, then, I will be able to say either "cake" or "death" without hesitation, without second-guessing. Like Lancelot confronting the bridgekeeper at the Gorge of Eternal Peril.

I don't believe it's possible for anyone to say, presently, what their choice would be, since they cannot know what will happen in their lives between now and when they must choose cake or death. An event could occur, or several, at any time, which change everything.
