    Stop. Engaging.

    This need to talk back to every person who takes a shot at you is not doing you any favors. You have more important things to do with your time than give legitimacy to these fools who seem to live for stalking you.

    Break the habit and finish that damn book already.

    Yes, but practice for what exactly? A quest to see how many people on this planet you can convince that you're a bit of a tit?

    I take it to mean he is using this as a place to practice his writing, an effort to dispute the notion that time at Wordforge is time wasted from working.

    ^^BINGO. And also, gathering up realistic reactions to this particular character. Because, were it just me, I'd laugh this character off. Some of you do that, which tells me that's sort of a realistic reaction, but some of you seem to get really pissed off, which I haven't really quite figured out the reason for yet. So yeah, I'm investigating that.

    But this isn't the Muppets. (Or wherever you got that image from.)

    This is "Sifl & Olly." And I'm playing the role of Chester, just to see what y'all will do about it.

    You're not running a blog as John Castle? You're not selling books on Amazon as John Castle? You're not on IMDB as John Castle?

    I think he wants to rationalize that mistake. But if he really is conducting research, then he owes us all some portion of the donations.

    The scientist does not disburse grant money to the rats. :bailey:

    Besides, you weren't even drafted. You volunteered to be antagonists. Volunteers don't get paid.

    I think he, after 300 posts or so, reflects on what he's been doing, realizes that he looks like an ass while using his real name and says, "Oh, never mind, I was just playing." This all in vein hope that someone who researches him and stumbles on his threads here will, eventually, find that post disavowing the other few hundred and fall for it.

    The first time you snarked at me. That was your consent form, and you signed it by clicking "Post Reply." What, didn't you know? Throw that on the mountain of shit you don't know, chump.

    Hey, ya know what I noticed? Fuck you, that's what I noticed.

    I started this thread without any name calling. Without any insults. Without any bullshit.

    And as usual, a coterie of fucking dimwitted man-whores came in here and shat it the fuck up.

    So no. I will not be villified in this fucking thread. I did not start this bullshit. I never start this bullshit. I'm the one who is regularly targeted for this fucking bullshit. I'm just better AT this bullshit than this pack of pee-wee league cocksuckers.

    You've got a gaggle of little fucking mental-midget bullies on this board who keep pickin' on the wrong fuckin' kid. They get their fucking asses handed to them and go crying to Teacher about it when they're the ones who started shit!

    Fucking bullshit!

    No Apologies.

    You want to see the end of this persona? Do ya? Here's how it works:

    El Chup -- you shut your fuckin' mouth.

    Gul -- you shut your fuckin' mouth.

    Faceman -- you shut your fuckin' mouth.

    Lubak -- you shut your fuckin' mouth.

    Chardman -- you shut your fuckin' mouth.

    That
    is how it works. You don't want me to sling shit at you, you fuckin' cunts? Then it's easy: you don't sling shit at me first.

    I'm not going to take your fuckin' bullshit lying down. I never did, and I never will. But you don't get to heave that shit at me and then bitch like little girls when I heave it right the fuck back at you, get it? Good.

    That's the simple, be-all, end-all truth of this dynamic. You want to shut this persona down? It's easy. You shut them down, because I'm not the one who starts this shit. Ever. I never start this shit, they do. I just answer it. So you wanna shut it down? I understand. I do. I want it shut down, too. Rip them. Rip their asses, because they are the ones who light this shit, every time. I don't like this act any better than you, but it's what I have to do to counter their shit. So get on them about it. I'm not gonna lie down and take this shit. If you don't like the fireworks, shut them down.

    No, it's 1630 in your afternoon. Get up at 0530 like I do seven days a week, then tell me what time it is.

    See, look at this.

    I point out that it's these imbeciles starting shit with me, not me starting shit with them.

    How do they react? By running right the fuck back in here and starting more shit with me! Lame, predictable little cunts!

    That's late evening for him! After all, he's settled back into his nice long blur of interneting and meltdowns. No reason to skip on the sauce now!

    Naturally we can also see how diligently he is investing his time into all the suggestions he has received for developing his career. :lol:.
