Is WordForge Really A Family of Friends?

Also Pot/Kettle - while he cloaks it to an extent, anyone watching closely will notice exactly how much he enjoys tweaking (not owning, he's not that good) the libs.

Witness the smugface smileys in the SCOTUS thread.

No, @Diacanu has always been like this sadly

I remember Enterpriser in TNZ, when he was already on shaky ground, posted a thread with this strange pseudo-science that he "found" somewhere that was paragraphs of nonsense that basically said on a genetic and cellular level that black people were inferior to white people and came to the conclusion that white women shouldn't fuck black men lest they have a baby with a watered down genetic code, as this would be bad for society when you extrapolate over time

He was a real ugly piece of work

@gturner reminds me a lot of him

Says the guy who acts like an 80's teen comedy villain.

Villain? Don't give him airs.

He's the guy who hangs with Fonz pretending to be cool but really he's deeply into Renaissance art and Coleridge.

See who liked his post for a couple of other hangers-on.

I never felt like gturner was any kind of threat. A pathetic, passive/aggressive online bully with no life, sure. But I don't remember him stalking anyone. and he never crossed into territory that I would regard as dangerous.

I didn't read the whole thread, but why do you all think of "family" as something positive? Maybe wordforge *is* a family, but more in the "yeah, I didn't choose you either" sense of the word.

I'm far from considering any of you a friend. I'm too much of a lurker for that, but even if I weren't...
I'd still be happy to take anyone here for a couple of beers, should you happen to be in Berlin.

As much of a pain in the ass that he was, gturdo had that going for him, at least.

That said, he definitely had Enty's spammy "disrupt the conversation and cause chaos while adding nothing of substance" vibe and the board is still better off.

That's a very insightful way to put it. Family certainty doesn't carry a universally positive meaning for me.
There's people that came through the stress test with me and we still love each other
There's those with enough grace to be kind even when they don't always understand.
Those who silently judge you while feigning kindness but are not as good at hiding it as they presume
Those who's relationship with you is kinda fucked up in some way, Those who openly look down on you
Those who take don't even hide the glee they take in being hateful.

Yeah, I can see that analogy holding up

cult, like trump supporters.

Yeah, but he wasn't here in the age of President Trump or QAnon. We'd have all had to take turns sweeping up the tinfoil in the Red Room on a daily basis.

He was here for about two weeks after Trump was elected and he'd turned into an insufferable cunt. God forbid if he'd stuck around any longer.

He was into pizzagate.
He was our one and (thankfully only) genuine true-believer pizzagater.
I have no doubt he's taking horse paste for covid right now.
