This is probably true.

Could you also say that any 20-something who trolls a father with lascivious jokes about his daughter ought also have the presense of mind to realize he too needs a break from the Internet?

At the very least, perhaps my presence here post-MS-ban (and Tomgirl's!) puts to rest the rather annoying MetroStyles sockpuppet rumors. I am a real person, as I welcome the mods to verify by way of IP check. Manton himself can also verify as much, having done business with me fairly recently.

At any rate, I love Manton and also enjoy MS, and today has saddened me.


I never thought you were a Metro sock, FWIW.

yes edit: I'm from the '4chan' generation, so I guess trolls and low-blows don't really surprise me all that much, but I guess if you're not used to anonymity breeding dickbags I suppose you would receive it differently.

+1, and also relieved to be proven not to be one of his socks.

Doesn't really prove anything, unless he was IP banned, which I doubt he was.

In any case, I never thought you were his sock either. I think I even believe you are a girl.

Timing counts for a lot when delivering that line.

I appreciate it. For what it's worth, whatever you decide to do on this board or the next, I'm glad to have made your acquaintance. Thank you for the spoils of Napoli, btw!

Someone with some pull should start a thread called "Feuds, Spats, Grudges, etc." in DT. I am fascinated and surprised by who dislikes who(m) or what(m).

I would like transparent moderation to focus on the moderators decisions, the banning, and the embedded vBulletin codes that allow Julian Assange and the CIA to monitor and leak discussions in the IC.

There was a thread like that. Do a search.

This is surprisingly one of the nicest things I've had said to me on here since I started posting. Though I realize you have no proof, I appreciate it.

Please don't scare off the female. This is why we can't have nice things!
