Damn you BH!!! That's the third time one of you bastards locked a thread while I was typing up a huge post to slam into some noob's face, only to find out the thread was locked as I attempted to post it. I haet you. (Not to be taken seriously complaint) Edit: On a side note, good job keeping me from scarring people for life with my extremely long posts.

Sorry about that. With that said, thread locked.
...Just messing. Feel free to discuss. In all seriousness though, perhaps it's for the best that you didn't get to complete those particular pokings with those particular sticks. While I do enjoy making an idiot look like one, it's probably not a bad idea to recognize when doing so isn't the best thing to do. And in the case of the latest such thread, it did look like stoking the flames was not the best course of action.
Still, even if a thread gets locked before you can say your piece, there's always PMs. Just don't start a fight. We don't like fights. Fights, bad.
Edit: Minor rephrasing occurred.

Eh, it less bothers me this latest one, since it wasn't a very long reply, but I do remember trying to post one once that was close to 10k characters long only to find out Soren locked it before I could post it.
Cons also did that to me, and it wasn't even a Bans and Complaints thread. Jerk. D:

There's a perfectly good reason I make a point of stoking the flames of a bans and complaints thread like I do. If you're not able to determine that reason without me telling you, then I'll spell it out. If there's one thing I've learned in my various gigs as an administrator, it's that a true test of a trouble maker's claims to repentance comes with how they react to provocation. It'll speak more truth than even the most eloquently doctored and worded unban request.

I don't speak for you, but in some aspects I do the things I do for the sole purpose of revealing a person's actual attitude. If they see that as helpful, they see that as helpful. If not, then I guess I'm just labeled as the neighborhood asshole disgruntled troll. I could care less either way.

If not, then I guess I'm just labeled as the neighborhood asshole disgruntled troll. I could care less either way. I, for one, think that's outright fucking retarded and unfair. I'm pretty sure that I, along with most people will, ESPECIALLY if I'm provided with the comfort of anonymity via the Internet, retaliate if someone barges into a matter that's not their business and decides to run their mouth. Scenario: Banned person in question: "In closing, I'm really, REALLY sorry for what I've done to you and the game as a whole. I promise that if you give me a second chance, I'll do what I can to make sure I become a fair, honest contributor to THG just like everybody else." Asshole disgruntled troll: "Pff, bullshit. Way to cook up an elaborate lie there. You're not sorry. You know you're not. You don't deserve to be unbanned from this game. As a matter of fact, I hope you stay banned forever. Eat a dick." Banned person in question: "Hey, fuck you. What makes you think you know me better than I know myself? This isn't your business anyway. Piss off." Are you telling me that an admin's supposed to make a decision based on something that you TRICKED him into saying? Seriously, how is your negative manipulation of a person supposed to help with ANYTHING? That's not revealing people's "actual attitudes." That's coming along and causing something bad that likely never would have happened in the first place. Just IMO, BTW.

If the approach you just presented were a fair representation of my posting style in the bans and complaints thread you might have made a valid point. Since it isn't, sucks to be you. You, sir, I would like you to find one post by yours truly that says anything close to "you're a dick and u shud b banned 4eva lul". Try it if you dare.

Realis wins. Also, I had meant to attack the idea of intentionally provoking people in general, not necessarily you. I kinda screwed my argument up by doing that. The scenario was just used to show what COULD come of it, not necessarily what you make of it. But anyways, no, I'm not going to go searching through your threads to try and find something along the lines of what I just typed. I'll just take your word for it when you say that you don't take it that far.

Also, I've already anticipated a variety of LP's retorts to my proving him to be the vicious dickwad he is, and here is my reply to one of them:
You didn't specify whether or not you had to be serious with the post.
On the other hand, there is also this one:
The post and your 'example' that you wanted Bob to find a post similar to are, in fact, very similar. It contains one (1) insult, and one (1) permabanned remark.
Furthermore:
I answered the question on behalf of Bob because I felt like being a jerk to someone, you happened to post, and because ilu and the next post I make will probably somehow be exactly what you are too lazy to post, which is why you can never hate me amirite?
Finally:
Even though the post itself is not similar to your style, you did not ask for a post that WAS of your style, but rather just a post similar to 'lol u suk ban forever'.
PS:
Knowing LP, he is going to retort something that I didn't cover up there, and I await the remark. <3

A former Brotherhood member is sitting here telling you that what LP does is helpful and, yes, DOES separate the lying d-bags and the truly repentant players who just wanna play again. If you believe it's retarded and unfair, then you obviously either haven't admin'd before or you haven't taken a gift horse without looking it in the mouth. After all, people who get banned usually deserve a little guff by people anyway. Because most of the time, it's abusers and spammers.

And I have nothing to be disgruntled about since you all aren't my problem anymore.
