Nope.  My bad.  You outed his troll moniker, while NOT doing so to others.

It was someone else ( I think, hell, I wouldn't put it past your hypocritical ass ) that altered his posts.

When he called you on it, you laughed and said that "you hated trolls".  When asked why you didn't apply this standard universally, you said you "did it when you felt like it", and that you only did it to people that annoyed you.

Yep.  You were a fair mod, all right.  About as fair as John Ashcroft, anyway.

ah yeah that. i dropped modship because i reallized i had been hippocritical about the whole thing and wasn't able to keep my feelings about people separate from my responsibility to be an objective mod. that's why i dropped it. I'm pretty sure i apologized to gitmo at one point.

Not really.  Henny Youngman had better insults.

It's weird.  Sometimes I think you all are reading a different forum.

Granted, a thread here and there degenerates into trite fluff, and there are the inevitable flame threads (like this one), But check it out:  

Currently, there are 3-4 stories being created in serial form, There have been intense discussions about the nature of creation/destruction, some pretty good recipies have been passed back and forth, more than a few relevant political/current event conversations, several fairly good O:M missions, and some Discordian Kaballah, to boot.

I skim the trolling session, I glance at the fluff, I laugh at the jokes (and there are some damn good jokes in here), and I think about the "deeper" stuff.

If you ask me, this is one of the more productive and interesting forums out there.  A little something for everyone.

Why can't y'all stop focusing on the shit you don't like, and concentrate & contribute to the stuff you do?

Because none of them are telling the truth.

Oh, now he wants TRUTH...

Quote from: Eldora, Oracle of Alchemy
Quote from: SlartibartfastIn the last two years since i've joined here, the forum has gone from

1<a small place with just a bit of activity>

to an

2<awesome place for people to talk about ideas and rant and provide sermons>

to

3<a bunch of people posting fluff and fluff and fluff and threadjacking, and maybe a ratio of 1:1000 good:worthless posts>.

What happened? Why are we suddenly full of so many trolls and people trolling under other accounts for stupid and bullshit reasons, and too many people pulling the high-and-mighty act all the time?

What's up?
I am Switzerland on this, but I don't think he said he didn't like rants Rog.  He is bitching about fluff without defining it.

Just a thought.  Look through his most recent posts, and see how many are NOT attacks on "certain posters".
Sorry, my dial up can't keep up with your l33t connection and uberl33t typing skills, I saw what you meant after I looked at the post you linked to.  But by then chaos was visiting my house and I had to log off :evil:

Malaul

why does it always have to coem down to folks yellin at each other?
this place used to be fun and serious with out being an all out bitch session

what happened?
why did everyone start snapping at each other?

Must be the water. Or a terrible virus unleashed by the CIA on an
unsuspecting populace! Yeah! That's it! It's all a conspiracy!

Scream! Yell!

Sorry. Just wanted to be like everyone else.

I don't know, Mal. People seem to have hair triggers. Either they
are all pulling our legs, following (you know who) over the cliff, or they
all've got serious problems with their real lives. Maybe some of
everything.

Ah, they'll get over it.

In the meantime, have a drink, keep your head down, and slip into something more comfortable...
