I call bullshit.
Stupid threads and stupid thread titles are the bread and butter of the Pit. Why single him out for trolling?
Lynn says that he admitted that the information in the title is inaccurate, which is not true. He doesn’t admit to false info anywhere. I can only guess that Lynn refers to him saying that the girl was not really 13, but so what? She was made to look 13 and said she was. But let us not get bogged down discussing the topic of that thread. When pressed for details, he recognizes that he understands the issue and amends his argument. Done deal, let’s move on.
Then, when he reacts to such egregious accusation of trolling, he gets done for reacting. Fuck that. That’s the lamest schoolyard technique around. “What did you say about my momma?”. Please.
Also, why was the thread locked? So the title wasn’t kosher, change it, damn it. People is already in there talking the issue. Why kill that discussion?
Anyways, if someone was trolled, it was Euthanasiast. And I laugh at Ed’s suggestion that when someone gets abused by an administrator, the solution is emailing him. Really? After he threw the (Otto?) tantrum and said that anyone looking sideways at any staff would be burned and banned? I am sure people is all feeling protected with him to mediate a difference with a staff member.
Plus, this was all in the pit. This is the place to tell staff to fuck off. If you are going to change the rules, at least have the decency of not applying it retroactively.
Ed, you are an asshole. An incompetent asshole. Except that you are not incompetent at being an asshole. That you do ok.
(And you know that if he has started a new thread, the psychophants (not a typo) du jour would have lined up to say “Did you have to start a thread for that Couldn’t you just have said it there”)
And yes, I know I put a parenthesis inside a parenthesis. Bite me.
