    Clearly, you are the smartest guy in the room. And I'm just relieved I'm not in that same room with you...

    I like Tamar, while recognising that she's human and sometimes disagreeing with her moderation. But in general I don't think we have a major issue with that on WF.

    Wait... So you are complaining that she "protects and hides" posters no matter if she likes them or not? That seems an odd complaint.

    Seriously, I think Tamar stopped the worst of that after the Meka thing. But I agree that if you've got secrets, you shouldn't keep going around saying you know them. Just keep ya mouth shut!

    But why not just post with your original handle again? :unsure:

    I hate Tamar and everything she stands for.

    But I also love a good dual outing followed by meltdown. :chris:

    It's not a matter of protecting anyone.

    We out duals for fun and profit on staff, but we don't go searching for them. You have to tip the radar for some reason.

    There have been a couple of times we agreed to not out a dual or new handle, but those situations the person contacted us first and asked us to...and even they got outed eventually.

    Some dual. I don't even remember its posts.

    What was the end game? Going out in a blaze of glory by spamming Nazi flag pictures or something? :rolleyes:

    Do I also need to prove that a tiger has stripes?

    The amount of rep I am gathering for my post above speaks for itself - and notably some of those who have repped it aren't who I was expecting, meaning there are others yet to comment who also recognise it.

    Either you are oblivious to the way you act, which I find hard to believe, or you know full well what you do. Too many people are aware of it to play the "innocent little me game" any longer.

    Look at it this way, out of all the mods, who is the only one that gets routinely question in this fashion?

    That speaks volumes.

    You are the perfect example of why mods should be freshened every year.

    Yeah, she plays favorites but no one is perfect. :shrug:

    I have a hard thinking of someone who would do a better job that actually has the time/desire to do so.

    I dunno that we need mod rotation anymore for the reason you mentioned. It's not all the mods, not like it was eight years ago when Nick would quit every other week or Bear shot his mouth off or the staff organized a coup d'etat to get rid of the board owner.

    It's easy to forget just how far this place has come in ten years.

    Wow, a former poster keeps lurking for many years. Brooding, studying his enemies, waiting for the right moment to strike, after years and years of patience and silent agony. He never forgot about the humiliation, revenge will be his. This is the hour, this is the night he will paint the town red...!

    And then...

    :fail:

    I'd love to see this list of people who are my favorites...because for the most part I like everyone here, even people I disagree with.

    I wouldn't still be here if I didn't love the people here because there is no other reason to do this job.

    See, even I didn't do it like that. I vowed 10 years ago that I would find out who Tamar and Storm really were -- and hey, 10 years later, guess what? I have.

    But I spent that 10 years actively annoying the living shit out of the rest of you, as well.

    That's what we call efficiency, kids. That's what we call maximizing return on investment.

    Psh, don't even play. You two hid the shit out of who you were back in 2003. Just because you couldn't keep it up for a decade doesn't mean you weren't putting elbow grease into it back then.

    Believe me, it wasn't hard to find out.

    Well, me, anyway.

    Storm was very reclusive back then.

    Btw, my memories of Archangel are mainly positive. I'm a bit surprised he'd want to change his identity. :shrug:

    I don't recall Archangel. How did he humiliate himself last time? I'm pretty clear on the current humiliation, but need some history.

    I have never understood why Tamar has seemingly been granted lifetime tenure as a site moderator/admin, to the exclusion of others who would have been far more even handed in their approach to things.

    I can only surmise that it's a combination of pity related to her terminal medical condition and the fact that she's probably traded dirty pics with others and can blackmail them with photos of their boy uglies.

    I always figured Elwood kept her around because she could have confirmed that he was not in fact a law enforcement officer as he's always claimed. I can't remember off the top of my head the name of that chick he was cybersexing that threatened to expose him, which led to her instantaneous banning. That chick was able to be discredited as a crazy stalker bitch. I guess he figured Tamar wasn't so vulnerable.

    My perception is that Lanzman kept her around simply because she's been in the position so long and he didn't want to reinvent the wheel.

    The stuff people make up about me is damn funny...the fact they believe that shit is pretty sad.

    I mean...everyone is dying for some naked pics of an obese, ill, 40 year old woman!! Clearly, I use my body for favors and perks! :rofl:

    Geeze, that made my weekend...thanks Flashy! :lol:
