I believe it's the sheer power of moderating a forum with as many as 20 active users. It's enough to tip anyone over the edge.
You are trying to ridicule me but in the process you said something very right.
Making a post in jest doesn't have to be at the expense of someone.
Six years, is that what it actually adds up to?
There are five of us here with the power to permanently ban people, and between us we've probably had some issue with every member here. Why are there any members left if the power's gone to our heads and we're all bullying tyrants?
Harold wasn't just an irritant. Any time things didn't go his way he'd actively try to make the board worse for everyone. He'd flood every active thread with meaningless pictures just to make reading the thread a hassle. Forget the internet, and take that behaviour into your real life where you try to be fair and try to act with justice. How many times would you invite someone back to your house if every time they came round you had to throw them out because they spoiled every conversation and started shouting over everyone else with their fingers in their ears when someone told them to give it a rest?
My guess is that it would be fewer times than he was allowed back here to do the same thing.
Saint, why do you even care so much?
If you want to chat with Harold, can't you do that at The Refuge (does that still exist..?) or somewhere else? Is it important that he's around here, specifically? You know he annoys most people on here extremely much.
Ban Saint.
If only Harold had well over a decade worth of chances to sort himself out. If only.
Look at Ital dying on that hill. Amrite Saint? o/
"That extraordinary racist guy who couldn't go 2 posts without saying something completely fucking bonkers and ruining almost every thread...? Yah let's bring him back, you power hungry cunts!"
That was how I used to try getting Saint unbanned.
Did it work?
Well, don't know about ruined but I do see a lot of dead threads.
And he wasn't racist just s bit cautious about the Muslims.
You weren't unbanned Saint, it was decided to not carry across any bans over from TheDugout when the new board started.
Good to know but why mention you this??
Let's not recast history here. Harold was a massive racist. Since being banned, his alias contributions have consisted of taking potshots at black people, presumably because he doesn't need to pretend not to be anymore.
You're welcome, Saint.
I'm a twit
You just absolved him of any accusations that he was banned because of him being racist.
Why is everyone talking about this? Did I mentioned or insinuated in any way about this subject?
What a thoroughly boring thread, why does Saint have such a hardon for Harold?
Man of the people, slayer of the system etc.. I wrote that somewhere in this thread.
Why would you write in a thread you find boring?
I will say this and this alone: Saint > Harold.
To say I found it boring?
Really? I found Harold fascinating albeit in a very morbid way but he was still a pain in the arse. I'd prefer that to reading this garbled mess.
Why the effort?
Seconded.
Thirded.
The only way to defeat Harold is to give Saint the self-confidence he needs to finally let go.
Come on Saint, you can do it!
Magic... The only one that managed to put my disbelief in permanent bans to a test.
And no , I ain't better then Harold. I am too nice to tell it how it is to many in this forum.
Such humility.
