Why aren’t you being modded for making stupid weenie posts like that?

Short answer: because the mods are two steps ahead of you (and thankfully 2 steps ahead of me).

Heck, if I was expected to babysit a bunch of schmucks who will routinely complain that I’m either being too heavy-handed or not heavy-handed enough, and not getting _paid_ for it…

By now, I’d probably be at the point where I’d be giving out BPC’s contact info and telling y’all that if it’s that important to you, feel free to take the law into your own hands.

Bite me. It’s a legitimate question.

I mean, I’d hate it if, say, my erstwhile, misguided, regrettable and stupid defence of **Cesario** got brought up in unrelated threads years later, repeatedly, just to hassle me.

To pick a non-random example. Just for **Fenris**. Who is one of the reasons I don’t bother posting at any other MBs anymore. And is doing the same shit here with **BPC**.

If you say so.

Connection made. I’m sorry to hear that.

**Fenris** is your Lex Luthor? Or am I misunderstanding? (if I am correct, who is your Jimmy Olsen?)

Nope, **Fenris** is an annoying asshole, is all. So more like my Bat-Mite.

Granted, he’s not the _only_ reason I only read those other MBs and don’t post there anymore. But here, that kind of stalkerish shit isn’t supposed to fly. Hence my question to the mods, earlier.

It’s because this is the Pit, not a drum circle where everybody has to hold hands and be nice to each other.

I don’t believe the BPC stuff gets brought up very aggressively anywhere else on this board.

You sure do like to defend pedophiles though, I’ll give you that much.

Must not have read the ATMB thread, then.

What can I say, I’m a pedophilophile.

Prick.

It’s also not a place where one is _obligated_ to be a dick.

You forgot to add in three “fucks” and a “cockgoblin.”

A drum circle where everybody is holding hands? What do you do, jump up and down and beat the drum with your pecker?
