Not to minimize the importance of the Cellar, but in the grand scheme of things, it's just a Goddamned message board. I know we can get to know people fairly well here...but it's only a sliver of a person, really. Even if we are acting as real as possible here, we don't really know each other. And I know that I've gotten into my share of flamefests...and they were pretty fucking stupid. There was really no point to them.

Anyway, let me get to my point...I think it's stupid to be a dummy on a message board. There are so many better things to do...like smoking weed.

Ah, then I'm with ya, UT. F her.

Have a good day all, I'm off to the Tribeca Film Festival.

Might I also add, I've been the subject of a few rather obvious "phishing expeditions" recently. And so has my mom, because one or two 25-year-old personal details about me are still published with her address attached to them. So if I'm on a hair trigger for threats...

Nothing makes me want to give this up more than that. Syc's right; the "this is just a message board" aspect swings many ways. One of them is "it's just a message board so why ban people?" Another is "it's just a message board so why do it at all, if you'll be threatened for it?"

I have no idea what any of this is about, so therefore please leave me the fuck out of it.

lumberjim · 04-29-2006, 12:17 PM

don't read this!

lumberjim · 04-29-2006, 12:57 PM

no, there was a homeless period in between.

i've said it before. there are no wheelchairs online. i dont have a problem with her getting assistance. i had a problem with her lies and grandeose (sp?) airs that she put on. the superiority based in her inferiority.

I have to congratulate the members of The Cellar on the generally small amount of pig fighting here. I'm a mod on another forum where pig fighting of the LJ/Mari variety was a daily activity for years. Now, the forum has almosted disappeared thru lack of posts. It's hard for a mod to decide what is best for the group. If you let pig fighting go on too long, the nicer people will disappear from the forum.

At least UT had the stomach to do it himself. At this other place the owner made one of the fighters a mod and went out of town for a few days, let someone else do his dirty work. The new mod was so unstable that a month later he banned himself.

I just read marichiko's suicide post.

BAN

Her post as "Buddha" above does not dissuade me at all.

There, you see? It pointless. You can't fight the herd mentality.

Bye now.

Ah, now I see. This is what I get for not checking in regularly.

Mari, that was over the top.

I assume you're referring to the other board we have in common? Yeah...that was nuts.

Yes.

In that case, the Mari character was a successful high-income CFO. She and the owner were co-dependent fighters. The ambush and ban played out similarly.

Now that there are about 5 posts/day, there's no more fighting.
