Goodbye.

[ataraxia]

Ok, I said I would quit if it was the right thing to do, and I meant it. The Mgt has decided, and Roger wins again. Here's what I see:

Roger is a psycho who is more powerful than I had thought. My pwnage. Look at how quickly he ramped up when I stepped. He's clearly got a battle plan for defending his egomaniac self pre-defined and ready to go. And unfortunately for me, it's a

good one.[/list:u]

Most people here don't care enough about the board to actually fight for it. My pwnage again.[/list:u]

Lauren does not care enough to fix her board, either. Or more likely, cannot figure out how to do it, which is nothing against her, since it's definitely a hard problem.[/list:u]

Buddhist_Monk_Wannabe has an excellent point, as well: the asshats will just keep coming back anyway.[/list:u]

I am subject to my own words to MoC:

Do whatever it was you were going to do, before you let these other folks get you into a reactionary stance. This isn't a pissing contest, it's a funhouse. Just play. And if you do your own thing and it still doesn't go over well, I'd say you're just in the wrong place. If it's not for you and you fake it anyway, you have no fun. If it's not for you and you don't fake it, nobody else has any fun. Either way, what's the point?

So I will conclude the obvious, and quit.[/list:u]

As long as the good folks here just complain about the problem, and do nothing about it, it will just get worse. It's that damn "When they came for X, I did not speak out, because I was not an X" thing again. This board is all but USELESS for anyone other than the trolls, and it will become more so. Look at all the deserters! Where is the rest of Bella's family? Hoshi's last post was during the Roger-banzor incident, for instance. Where are riff, Lister, Z3, Medeo, Hotsuma, Slartibartfast, Penumbral, Thwack, Shecky, etc? unlike_someone and synaptyx have been absent lately as well. You think they ALL left out of boredom?

So I will stop posting. I won't stop reading, though ,Äì even if the only things that keep me coming back are Hugh's rants, horab's story, and LMNO-PI. At least, those were the best things I saw posted while I was here. (I assume Verthaine would have said some great stuff, too, but obviously he has much bigger concerns at the moment.)

I'll leave POEE UK and kaegogi/Sandbox as well, since those seem to basically be vassal states of this board. It makes a good case for these truly being "Roger's internets". (Just wait for Netsukuku.)

I will leave PM notifications on, so if you are one of the people I get along with and you missed this, PM me if you want and I'll answer you. And for those of you with my email, don't be shy about using it. I'm not looking to lose any friends, just everyone else

And Roger ,Äì do watch out. You pwnd me, and I'm sure you'll do the same to 99% of the people you meet. But sooner or later, somebody's gonna get you, and you'll realize at the last moment that you don't really want to die after all. My only regret is that I most likely won't know about it.

Goodbye.

Maybe there's nothing wrong with it dickbag. So sad to see you suicide another moniker though. (not really)


P.S. You owned yourself.

[Zurtok Khan]

Ata,

You can choose to leave and do nothing, or stay, and be a bastard to the trolls.

As for me and my house, we shall stay and abuse the trolls.

Fnordie:  Those who see nothing wrong aren't really looking.

[Shibboleet The Annihilator]

Oh good, I was afraid there wouldn't be anyone to pwn.

Stupid fucking dickbag.

[Donkeyotay]

[Shibboleet The Annihilator]

heh

[Zurtok Khan]

You called?

Ohh, and Fnordie, don't be steppin' now.

       

[Shibboleet The Annihilator]

Then leave.

[Zurtok Khan]

Then leave.

Well, if you'd like to leave, I'm sure you'd make alot of people happy.

[Shibboleet The Annihilator]

[Donkeyotay]

You called?

Ohh, and Fnordie, don't be steppin' now.

       

Sorry Z....I wasn't calling for you, I know you are a queen and all but, your man-boobs aren't even THAT big.../\ Those are BIG

So, true Donk, I have not acheived that level of Boobs yet.  So, who were you calling a Drama Queen?  Ata?  Because, I think he has a few very good points.  Or is it Fnor.die?  Because he probably deserves it.  He reminds me of Roger when he created Chef.

[Donkeyotay]

Artraxia of course..Nobody gives a shit if he's leaving, or flouncing, or jumping offa building...And nobody really cares why either

[the other anonymous]

Shit, and here I thought Ata-boy was smarter than me. He sat there and watched me get pwned and then thought he could win. Probably because I put up such a lame fight.

As I see it, intellectuals shouldn't be Discordians. Post-intellectuals should.

Oh good, I'm so glad that somone is staying to keep the evil trolls in line.
