If you plan on seeing any more good shit out of me, you’ll be squeezing it out of my ass with you tongue.

Where is the previous good shit?

All I saw was you not bothering to keep your own thread going and re-resurrecting a zombie. Where’s the part where you add anything of value?

No thank you.

(I moved this thread to the appropriate forum.)

Are you really complaining about your thread closure, **Vahid Tarzan**? You started a thread in the wrong forum with no backup information, and then refused to discuss the subject. I closed it.

Someone else started a thread in the appropriate forum with a valid question. You posted some gibberish in it, but it was **robotic\_panda** ’s thread, so I left it open.

As I noted in that second thread, you really need to do a little bit of reading threads and getting a feeling for the board culture before you post anything else. And look at the FAQ’s and forum rules, too.

If he _really_ wanted to get a feeling for the board culture, he could seek out posters who have **banned** under their names. Just saying…

Speaking of which, shall we start a pool on when our OP joins that illustrious group? Inviting Cecil to perform analingus is worth at least a warning in any forum, and I would not be surprised to learn that our OP has been a previous visitor, if ya know what I mean…

If we do start having that kind of pool can we include side bets as to which mod will finally pull the trigger?

Was Homer the guy with the mushrooms? If you’re offering to serve magical refreshments this could get…fun.

**Vahid Tarzan** -

Please, please start a Pit thread. And don’t wait too long - I rather suspect your window of opportunity is going to be brief indeed.

The mod is right, I have much to learn about this forum…

Mod, you are illogical. You closed a perfectly good thread with much too say. Electromagnetic Artificial Intelligence. I posted a picture: I AM FOREVER ~ in that thread, just before your comment that you would close it. You see the picture, you read the writing, viola! My timing or my responses didn’t deserve your Mod arrogance.

There’s a connect between the one you refused to close or to delete comments and the one you closed, but irrelevant at this point. Your website is crawling with product thieves which attach themselves to posts, images, those ideas or things you’ve created or designed yourself. It’s a public forum but I doubt it would enjoy its site material plagiarized.

On all other point… What is a Pit post?

No one knew what you were trying to say with that image, and nobody what you’re saying now either. I suspect this is not a new situation for you, but you might want to try a little harder to make yourself clear.

If you look at the main page, there is a listing of the forums. One is called the BBQ Pit. If you have a problem with another poster (not counting moderation issues) then one starts a thread there talking about how dreadful the other person is. It’s kind of like the alley behind the school. We all act nice in the other forums, but the blood-letting takes place in the Pit.

By the way, I’m assuming that English is not your first language.
