I don't especially like you all the time. I don't especially not like you, either.
However, I have perfect faith that you do not troll under assumed names. You've got the joss to troll under your regular name. You are who you say are. End of story.
I know that there's a lot of witch hunting going on right now. It seems that everyone is convinced that our resident mental nine year old is a regular. People see patterns in speech and patterns in behavior. We're running entirely on circumstantial evidence for this one and rather than make this board someplace where people can hang out and have some good discussion we're turning it into cyberSalem.
Frankly, I'm not at all convinced that the look-at-me-I'm-an-asshole!-aren't-I-great? is some other regular at all. It would take some heavy duty talking out of your ass to get me to believe that someone we've been associating with for a while could be so out and out childish. I don't particularly care what popular theory has it as or who anyone is trying to out.
It's not fun to come to a place and see thread after thread slammed up where shadowy allusions to who might be the persona-non-grata-du-jour. People wonder if others are thinking that it's them, and how do they defend themselves from it. Just because it looks incriminating doesn't mean that it is incriminating.
Start thinking before gossiping in PM, it'll help mellow this place out. Immensely, even.
