The thing is that he is making a classic mistake that many of my clients have made over the years, namely that twats like him assume that "I have a lawyer" equates to "I have a case". Notice that in all his threats he is totaly unable to summarise the advice that he has received, changing hs tune to what he says will happen every hour or so as he frantically spams up Facebook. That's why the reality is that he doesn't have a lawyer. He's an angry little man with no friends and no life who needs the internet to try and make himself into something. Nothing more, nothing less.
I dunno, I'm pretty scared. I think we might need to get Leonard J Crabs on the case: http://www.somethingawful.com/d/legal-threats/
We haven't even brought up if he actually did do this the notions of abuse of process or malicious prosecution counter-suits. It would be so fun for him to have his posting history opened up in a court room for all to see and hear, as would happen to show his history of malicious actions against BBS and eternal grudge holding. Hollywood loves anti-semetic sounding screenwriters, I bet. Holocaust deniers are much beloved. If I was him, I wouldn't want the scrutiny of my online activities when my career is so precarious to begin with.
Crap...3:21 AM! It's been almost 24 hours...as much as I hate to leave this free entertainment, I must sleep. Kinda funny how someone locks their account and then spends 12 hrs glued to the site and pitching a fit on FB.
So many good quotes from these. If he could write characters like this on a consistent bases, maybe his scripts wouldn't be so shitty and he wouldn't live in a flea infested flat. I also have to give credit to WAB for starting this thread. It's now clearly his magnum opus.
We've banned folks for attempting to destroy the board. Deleted them, even, albeit accidentally... Sadly, I suppose *threatening* to attempt destruction of the board would require a reasonable belief that he had the means and intent to do so, so we can't.
BACK ON TOPIC... Apparently my avatar is driving the poster in question batshit crazy, because he's been running to the admins like the little bitch we all know he is. The awesome thing is that I actually put him on ignore days ago (something I've never done before) just because I know it will drive him even more crazy when I don't respond to his posts. According to board staff, he's accused me of being "racist" because of the modifications I've made to the photo. Horseshit. Poking fun at religion and implying that someone is a terrorist is not racist. It may be in poor taste and small-minded, but it's not racist.
Megatron can't be surprised at getting a lot of shit thrown his way because of his past behavior, but at the same time I think your avatar is really bad taste.
He didn't say you were racist. I said that with $corp and I and hopefully many members hopefully soon will be trying to recruit new members and encouraging more traffic to the site that having that picture prominently displayed might make people believe that this place is racist and bigoted against Muslims as a whole. It makes us look as bad and worse than Tasvir's verbal diatribes do. Plus as awful as Tas can be, he's never...oh, for example. taken a picture Mewa posted here willingly, and there's been a few, and scrawled racist shit on it and used it as an avatar. Plus protesting hate with worse hate seems counter-productive and not likely to help matters at all. Frankly, I have little sympathy for Tasvir's feelings on the matter...he's made this bed and if is uncomfortable lying in it, well, that's really, really sad for him considering how little he cares about the feeling of the people he hurls shit at. But I do care about Wordforge and want to see things get better, which is why I asked you to remove the terrorist/arabic crap. Asked...not threatened or forced. It's far less about him and far more about us.
Someone should get a copy of the pending lawsuit and give it to Skrain so he can burn it then stomp on it with his amazing lesbian shoes.
Whatever I've done in the past, I've never played fast and loose with anyone's privacy, never even crossed my mind. All I did was verbal shitfests, nothing more. When it comes to my privacy I am very serious about such. There's nothing whiny and bitchy, as the pathetic arsehole WAB might think, to want to remove identifiable information from being used to willy nilly. I am pretty sure he would throw a shitfit if one of his pictures were being used by another in such a gross manner.
Yeah, I'm of two minds, messing with someone's image for an av is pretty shitty, and I wouldn't want it done...but Skin's psychotic meltdown is popcorn inducing at a deep reflexive level, and I really have to fight it....
How about this? You can use an avatar to troll people, provided it was originally posted in the Red Room, but you have to agree to have your account restricted to posting only in the Red Room.
