There is so much wrong in this post, I don't even know where to begin... 1. I don't remember Scabab ever complaining to me about you or anyone else. 2. You were banned once before. And IIRC, you begged to come back. The "toning down" was a condition of your return since the previous requests were ineffective. And look at you now! I guess it's true about leopards and their spots. 3. I have never "banned people left and right," although at the end of July, I did indeed ban 13 Soapboxers in one fell swoop. Best move I ever made here. 4. The bit about running this forum to meet women is fodder for Frank's board as it seems to be a popular rumor over there. Perhaps it's time you submit a registration... 1. According to him, he did. So he's either a liar or you are. Or both? 2. I was banned for telling you to "fuck off" in response to a polite request to chill out, which was a total overreaction. I apologized and you allowed me to come back. The "final warning" you gave me pertained to "spamming and bumping" threads and supposedly being too much of a dick, and I responded to you that I don't think I'm anymore of an asshole than most people here and then reflected and added that I could prolly be less obnoxious, too. Since my "return," I've done nothing but participate in good faith and good fun on here apart from this thread, and even here I did so until the laughable and ludicrous moment when Scabab was appointed Lord of our little fiefdom here. 3. You banned people all summer long and bragged about it almost daily. 4. Keeping telling yourself that it's relegated to being a "rumor" elsewhere instead of an established fact here that radiates around you, trailing whispers in its wake the moment you leave the virtual room. 1. I specifically said I don't remember. 2. The point is that you were indeed banned, which seems to be at odds with this statement: "Scabab complained to admin, who neither banned nor even suspended my posting privileges but said I needed to tone things down or, yes, he'd ban me." If you were referring to a later time, after your ban, then I apologize for misunderstanding. 3. That is incorrect. 4. Harmless flirtation does not bolster the rumor. And while it's no secret that SW and I are close, I think many have either forgotten or simply do not know that she reeled me, not the other way around. Regardless, that really isn't anyone's business but mine and hers, and the rumor that I created and run this forum to meet women is absurd and actually requires no defense. I hope you are getting what you want, Colden, because this is only time I'm going to let you shift the spotlight onto me.

I hope you are getting what you want, Colden, because this is only time I'm going to let you shift the spotlight onto me. I mean, you clearly seem know that I wouldn't be voicing my concerns this explicitly -- and risking whatever consequences might result from it -- if you hadn't appointed literally the one person here who would make me feel personally persecuted and uncomfortable posting here going forward. So. Yeah, no, I'm getting the opposite of what I want.

So. Yeah, no, I'm getting the opposite of what I want. Let me get this straight: You're pissed about me making Scabab a mod, so you come at me with a variety of stupid and long-since debunked accusations? Surely you didn't think that was going to make me change my mind, did you? Because it seems to me you're trying to push the trigger so you can victimize yourself and underscore your preconceptions formed by the gossip mill. Perhaps you should start a thread on the Soapbox...

Perhaps you should start a thread on the Soapbox... Why, did you want to continue discussing this over there with a sock account of yours? I don't follow. Edit: and how are they long-since-debunked when you've admitted as much in this same thread? I accused you of being a pathetic loser who uses this message board to meet women; you "disproved" it by saying that that particular woman that you met on here came onto you, thus... confirming you're a pathetic loser who met (one of) your girlfriend(s) on an internet message board of which you are the "authority figure," which adds an extra layer of creepy/sleazy/ick. And nah, I never thought pointing that stuff out would have any effect on anything. It just seemed germane to the discussion.

Oh man, you're reaching way too hard. I suggested the Soapbox because that's where this crap belongs. It might be fun hearing who all you think I am. Start a thread and I'll see you there.

Call me John there and I'll take off the admin pants.

I assume this is some sort of posturing, but I have no idea what you're talking about. And furthermore my concerns pertained to the job you were doing while wearing the, erm, "admin pants," specifically appointing a moderator that more than just myself complained about within moments of it being floated.

Ohhh, you meant OUR forum here? I thought you meant "The Soap Box," as in the other board. Well, that's embarrassing. Hey, it's 2:30 in the morning and I'm in an Xbox hole I can't even begin to dig myself out of until I beat Alabama for the SEC title...
... and, no, I'm not going to do that.

The mob does not rule this forum. What's the matter, Colden? Don't you want to play? Who knows, maybe you'll be the one to crack the case and reveal the big "mystery" surrounding the admin of this forum and his "creepy/sleazy/icky" harem of submissive women. You are, after all, calling me out, aren't you? You want to be a child, let's be children...

So. Yeah, no, I'm getting the opposite of what I want. Why would I make you feel uncomfortable? Since you came back and prior to this now where you've gone all over the top, what issue have we had? You "liked" a few of my posts even. Just the other day we were talking about Batman TAS and us both liking that Under the Red Hood movie. I don't want to be a mod to get at anybody. I want to be a mod so that I can help stop people from getting at each other.

It doesn't matter if it's one woman or a hundred; it's equally shameful and, some might even argue, legitimately morally unethical in actual virtue-based philosophy in actual real life. So, it seems like I've "cracked" the case already? And apparently you, ha.

That's -- I just explained that I don't see anything further to discuss since it was (a) a sub-point in a larger discussion about something else, and (b) you validated/conceded the point anyway. I was "done."

scabab Arf arf stanton is not here because he: Arch is just an enthusiastic fan, if he's excited for the movie then it's not hurting anybody, it is the appropriate board after all. If someone critiques these movies and he was to respond to them by insulting them that would be a problem. As documented, ArchStanton is someone who loves to go to other boards to troll them with sexist, semi-racist or just dimwitted fanboy hate threads eg "Does Gal Godot get banged by her boyfriend in costume" and the such. Just go through his thread history (there is a feature).
If you now officially act as a Moderator I hope that you do not fail at impartially distinguishing a bully from a troll from a gadfly, and apply clearly defined Rules of the House to anybody equally - without impairing the free speech nature of this board.
And do not forget the spirit of these boards, this board lives by it's nature of having "bumper car" character, least people want a merry-go-around carousel approach - there are ample of other forums for that: Colden is a gadfly, most people (except you) enjoy that at some level or put him on ignore. EattheEloi is a clear cut troll and fanboy hater, most people despise him.
A hateful troll opening defamatory faux-on-topic threads such as "does Gal Godot get banged in costume" or is not better than a gadfly who opens off-topic threads on when you got laid last time.

I understand you need to present your case in a "boss/secretary" fashion, but I also get the feeling that you know how ridiculous the analogy is, which is why you're backing out of what you started. The last word is yours. Make it a good one.
