> No, because I’m pretty sure that one poster telling another poster in the Pit that what they posted was dickish is not junior modding. It’s actually the main purpose of the forum you’re posting in. If you get confused, try reading the forum descriptions on the main page, they can help you remember. (Although I’m guessing you won’t be good at that either, since you misread IMHO as “click the poll and move on, no discussion!!!”)

Could you please elaborate further on how I should follow the rules of this message board? This is fascinating!

No-It’s your imaginary conversation, and you are doing so well all on your own.

Maybe you’re right, if there accusations of favortism because I was a mod a while back.

I’m not blaming Czarcasm here. I blame the asshole who invented the QWERTY keyboard. If he’d only added a middle finger key, this discussion wouldn’t be necessary.

I’m at a loss here. What kind of an idiot knowingly says “fuck you” to someone in the pit, and then self reports it, and then ANNOUNCES it in the very same post that it’s being reported? What kind of self-important asshole does that kind of shit? It just boggles the mind. I mean, you’d have to be a complete moron, a mouth-breathing, drool-slurping algae feeder to pull something like that.

I love the fact that Czarcasm’s so deeply, deeply butthurt that he couldn’t think of a Pit acceptable substitute for the f-you phrase that so shocked Ed so much.

Fornicate you  
Screw you  
F\*\*K you  
FLICK You  
Boink you  
etc.

and the reporting his own drama-queen behavior.

What’s fun is that numbers of people (Seven, for one) have been Officially Warned…not just “please don’t do this again” noted, actually a permanent record type warning, for using FORBIDDEN WORDS in the Pit, when it was clear that they knowingly did so and didn’t just slip up. Czar clearly knew, so let’s see if he gets the same treatment as others who’ve willfully violated the rules.

Yeah, he kinda brain-farted on that one. At least he gave us the asshole key.

So I take it you’ve never met Czarcasm before?

**pchaos** ’s view of God is pretty fucked up, though, still in all.

I wonder what the rationale is for private, lonely suffering that nobody else ever finds out about.

If I do, will you make sure I get three or four threads in ATMB protesting the ruling, starring The Usual Gang Of Idiots? I do so want to fit in.

Former mod meltdown, former mod piling on, initial douchebag forgotten, longtime posters bringing up ancient transgressions, complete with former names - it’s like the climactic cliff-hanger in a soap opera. Please, let **MOL** be revealed as **Biggirl’s** love-child with **Giraffe**.

Stay tuned!

I’ve got my fingers crossed for a “Threadspotting” nomination.

No, that’s not quite accurate. A Czarazy response has to be in the form of the kind of “gotcha”-type question that someone who’s mentally challenged would try.

Something like

Don’t you think discussions regarding moderation belong in ATMB?

Why don’t you think those rules apply to you?

It makes you a better person seems to be what they are leaning towards. You will not achieve _greatness_ unless God smacks you about sufficiently for your own good.

And he’s set a record by derailing a pit thread in the opening post. That record should stand for some time.

I was so hoping **pchaos** would have replied, so **Czarcy** could have in turn replied:

I SAID GOOD DAY, SIR!
