He made a mistake and immediately corrected it. We all make mistakes in our posts which we correct in a posterior post. What don’t you understand? You are being an asshole. Enough said.

And those are the last words you’ll utter on this matter, **milroyj**. I’m sick and tired of your veiled and not-so-veiled accusations of sock puppetery.

The administration judges whether two posters sharing a computer are actually two different people, or one person using two logins. Sure, it’s a judgment call, and we _could_ be wrong. Still, it’s simply not your turf, and you need to fucking drop it, now.

Should you wish to become a moderator, you can e-mail one of our administrators for an application form. In the unlikely event that you would be deemed capable of doing the job, you could investigate sock puppets all fucking day long. It’s _such_ fun.

As stated: drop it, and that’s not a request. Your posting privileges depend on it.

You mean you actually _applied_ for such abuse?? Such _unpaid for_ abuse??

I was under the impression that they came pleading for you to take it.

Seriously.

Well, they do grovel most piteously, but until they meet my price, I spurn.

Now, can we finally get back to the matter at hand, the Pitting of that vile and reprehensible vessel of corruption, **Mr. S.**?

Some are asked, some ask. That’s pretty much it. **milroyj** would be in the “has to ask” category. As well as in the “doesn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell” category, that is.

Ok, then.  
I was starting to doubt y’all’s sanity.

I’m sorry guys. Especially **elucidator** and **Weird With Words**.

I have found inspiration in the words of the Blessed Mother Teresa of Kolkata:

> [@](#):
>
> It is not enough for us to say: ‘I love God’, but I also have to love my neighbor. St. John says that you are a liar if you say you love God and you don’t love your neighbor. How can you love God whom you do not see, if you do not love your neighbor whom you see, whom you touch, with whom you live?

My accusations were not in the right spirit, and I humbly submit my fullest apology in this matter.

And I probably should have just ignored the accusations from the beginning. So, consider it an apology accepted, and returned in kind.
