Neither. At least try to be amusing. Like Faceman, who is at least mildly entertaining from time to time. Or Chup, who shows some self-irony, despite being a proud self-declared asshole. You are just boring. A boring parody of a troll. An amateur.
Petty pickering aside... I've just read through the whole thread, and I feel some pity for John Castle. I hope he gets help asap. I really think that he has mental problems. It's no laughing matter anymore, IMO.
He'll come back and claim that's exactly what he wanted you to think. But can a person who goes to such lengths for no good reason to convince people of his insanity really be considered sane?
He may come back and laugh it all away, yes. "It was all a big joke, and you fell for it, hahaha, trololol..." He has done it before. Problem is: Mental ilnesses are often ridiculed. "You suffer from depression? You are an addict? Aaaaaw, poor guy, now stop being a weakling and get your act together! Pussy!" This is why people who have mental problems often pull a Castle instead of facing their problems. You won't get ridiculed for having cancer. But you will get a lot of shit if you admit that you suffer from severe depression, for example. Or being bi-polar. Despite the fact that depression as an illness can be as deadly as cancer and even far more difficult to "heal". Mental ilnesses are a social stigma. Meanwhile, half of society is eating Prozac, Cymbalta or Xanax like candy... Or needs booze to survive. But talking about it? Hell no... Oh, this is the RR... Not the right place for real life issues. Let's bash Castle instead!
^ I definitely think you're right. I think he genuinely has mental problems, even if it's only depression. He certain shows the signs with his desperation for needing to make an impact and get attention.
Thing is, somebody having cancer doesn't cause them to give all kinds of grief to the rest of the world. And mental illness, properly treated, shouldn't either. His is not treated. We aren't responsible for that, nor can we do much. But one thing pretty clear to me, was that his time posting at Wordforge was getting in the way of what he needs to do to straighten out his life. Hopefully a vacation will help.
Still butthurt you didn't get to sneak back as a dual? Should have read the sign on the door that says in big letters that revealing duals is a funtime activity of Admins. Time to get over it...it's been over a year for god's sake!
The first time I set foot into this room, the thread bashing PBM was on track to being one of the longest threads at the time. Except for Travonne Martin's shooting, every threadIin this roomthat went past 500 post is meta wank and drama.
LOL...cute how you try to paint this as some vendetta. (EDIT: I had actually completely forgotten about that, but thanks for bringing it up as an example of how you abused your admin status to harass those you dislike) No, you're just a lying, attention whoring bitch who gets off on manipulating people...and much like certain other posters, you think you're the smartest person in the room. Maybe you can read up on this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Münchausen_syndrome
Wrong on all counts. I don't dislike you. I don't know you. I nothing you. It's not abusing my position or harassment when the fact that Admins outed duals for fun is right in the board rules you dolt. Duals are done at the poster's own risk and that has never been a secret or a mystery.
What's wong with a couple of puns? (sure beats the shit out of Flashy's contributi0n to this thread board)
Keep telling yourself that. Even many of the people who used to support you know you are full of shit at this point....your sudden health issues when the board changed hands....your new secret "backup" (teehee) board. Yup, you're not nearly as important to this place as your ego made you think. No one would really miss you if disappeared tomorrow, and the board would get along just fine without you. Now why don't you have Zel make a post about your bad health so you can sponge up some sympathy from the few people who still believe anything you say. Or would you prefer to go back into the help desk to try to stir up problems for the new owners....again?
this exactly. there is NOTHING about this thread which does not say to the casual lurker "RUN AWAY!!!!!"
You are full of shit. Get out of here with this nonsense...of course I wasn't more important than anyone else here. No one here is required for WF to go on and only a fool would delude themselves otherwise. The other board is Scorp's, not mine. The "sudden" health issues was surgery. It took longer than I thought it would when I left, but I would have left then even if Lanzman still owned the board. I didn't agree with discouragement and fought against it like any member here can. If that is "stirring up trouble" ...tough shit. Zel hasn't posted a thread about me in years...get over it, crybaby.
It can take years to figure out how to properly treat someone's mental illness. I've had my own minor issues, but I doubt I'd be a ray of sunshine if I had cancer. Although I did make it through a few months in a wheelchair without destroying all my personal relationships.
Say what you want about her admining, but every time Zel showed up and posted about Tamar getting sick and having to go into the hospital, I can personally verify that it happened as I would call up the Portland hospitals, shoot the shit with the Candy Stripers until they would would confirm or deny she was a patient there (Mainer little old ladies are as susceptible to sweet talk and a southern accent as anyone, more so I'd say, HIPPA be damned) and then send her flowers on WFs behalf. Seriously. She's posted the pictures of the flowers multiple times thanking the board.
Absolutely agree. Many mental ilnesses can only be controlled by heavy medication which have heavy side effects, schizophrenia for example. Same for severe clinical depression, which is quite different from feeling a little melancholic or "having a sad". And it is not only the patients who suffer horribly. Relatives and friends suffer, too.
