    Take a look in the Red Room, at the thread on the possibility of Catalan secession. Not a trolling post from me in there at all. A couple of people have taken to following me around being dicks, Red Room, Green Room, Help Desk, they'll follow me around trolling in any subforum they please. They don't care where they're trolling -- nor will the admins give them any reason to, apparently. But I'm not the one pushing this on.

    Point being, continuing to not push this forward is already not working.

    So, because you have a change of heart, everyone else is supposed to change for you.

    You're just going to have to live with the consequences of your actions.

    Next time you feel the urge to troll someone, don't.

    Do you actually have any instances in mind of trolling on my part that warrants this? Or are you just taking it on faith that there must be some?

    I don't foresee anything more happening in this thread. Nothing worthwhile has happened in it yet, of course.

    Are you serious? :rotfl:

    Your repeated assurances that you are just playing us all in one big troll is not evidence of trolling?

    Laughable fucking twat. :lol:

    I've never denied trolling. I asked her if she knew of any instances of trolling that would merit your and gul's behavior, specifically following me around trolling and flaming in just about every forum I post in. Because although I've gone overboard, I sure don't have a monopoly on going overboard in this.

    Merit our behaviour? You mean that lighthearted banter has to be earned by your trolling?

    The two are quite seperate.

    However, if you really need to know why people feel like giving you such banter, I would refer to this thread from earlier this you, which made you pull one of your usual fits and lock your John Castle account (the very same one you just reopned now that you locked your skinofevil account).

    Humiliate yourself much? :rotfl:

    The facetious nature of that post -- and, more importantly, which room it's in -- seems to have escaped your attention.

    Oh please, to recognise you are a troll is not to flame you.

    And yes, your first meltdown was humiliating, let alone you Facebook endeavor days ago.

    But calling someone a "laughable fucking twat" is. You may be able to skate on the trolling bit, but flaming is a little more clear-cut.

    So report the post. It's a factual statement, not a troll.

    That is unless you have not foillowed up a laughable meltdown on Facebook with yet another day of whining butthurt?

    It's your opinion. It's also a flame.

    No, a flame must be baseless. You threw a laughable tantrum on Facebook, and continue to do so here. There is no insult in that, it's what you did.

    If you don't like peolple pointing out facts, don't throw tantrums.

    Yep.

    Gul and El Chup are trolling. No doubt about it.

    Tamar is playing weasel games by playing the whole "we don't know it's you so we can't do anything" card when she and everyone here is pretty damn sure the pictures are John Castle.

    And John Castle? You've burned the bridge so many times that the bulk of the board might agree in private that yes you're being trolled but they just don't give a fuck enough to step up and say it out loud. You reap what you sow. Congrats.

    If you are serious, and personally I don't think you are since I've never seen you act any other way then you currently do, you'll ignore them and just keep posting.

    Zombie, I would remind you that "John Castle" has insisted many times that the pictures are not him, but rather someone else's that he is abusing.

    You'll also recall that I've only ever made that claim in the Red Room, where trolling is permitted.

    Irrelevant.

    You're still using the pics to troll him outside of the Red Room.

    The only reason you are getting away with it is that John Castle has so angered Tamar (among others) that she is playing the whole "I can't prove it's you so I'm not doing anything about it" card.

    Nothing wrong with it. John brought it on himself through his actions.

    Just don't you and the others pretend you're not trolling. You are.

    I would contend -- well, actually, I have been -- that there's something very wrong with board rules being conditional.

    They aren't conditional.

    You have just boxed yourself into a corner by foolishly saying the pics aren't you. You've given them an out with which to beat on you mercilessly without fear of getting in trouble for it.

    If they aren't you then it doesn't matter according to Tamar.

    If they are you then you can't prove it without being ballsy enough to send a cease and desist letter to Lanzman. In which case they should be made to take the pics down and you should be permanently banned for threatening legal action against the board.

    Perhaps you should have thought of this before posting pics of yourself and then claiming they weren't of you. :marathon:

    Really at this point your best bet is to just stop. Admit you've lost. Suck it up. Go and post. You make claims of changing your behavior. Well do it. At some point if the others involved in this retarded drama don't stop it will just look bad on them.

    As I posted earlier, I was bored with the whole thing, untill he started butthurting again.

    He brings it on himself. Hell, this latest round has earned his pic on TKO's AV as well as ours.

    You realize that's nonsense, of course. Even if I had said, from the beginning, that the photos are of me, nothing is still what would be done about it. I tend to agree with your earlier assessment that the reason nothing is being done about it is that I'm unpopular. That very certainly makes enforcement of the rules contingent on a poster's popularity.

    I disagree. If you had always maintained they were pics of you then Tamar would be hard pressed to claim they weren't trolling you because she can't say the photos are actually you. She still might try it but she might find more people openly calling her on it.

    And popularity doesn't play a big role in rule enforcement. Tasvir a very unpopular poster was blatantly banned over a rule change that came out of no where and the mod who did it got bitch slapped for it by a whole lot of people. None of which were fans of Tasvir. It was the fact a mod made a rule up on the spot and used that to ban Tasvir that caused the problem.

    They are trolling you (I believe the pics are you) but since you've claimed the pics aren't you they are off the hook.

    No it doesn't. Because you haven't stopped.

    And I'm not talking about a week or two. I'm talking about you posting "normal" for months on end. If at that point they are still carrying on being assholes then yeah it looks bad on them.

    That's not particularly relevant, is it.

    She, and every other Wordforge poster in the Wordforge group on Facebook, knows perfectly well that the photos are of me. And since those same posters have no issue with bringing information here from Facebook, they have no excuse for pretending otherwise. So like I said, it's still just very, very thin rationalization on their parts.
