Ok I was nice to you last time you closed one of my threads.

But this time you’ve pissed me off too far. I think that thread could have been entertaining for a great many dopers who feel the same way as I on the subject of youtube blogging.

I think you are a power-mad fuckface. Fuck you. And I don’t give a shit if you get me banned because of this post.

Giraffe is one of the best mods we have.  
You’re an idiot.

This post is probably the first one of yours I’ve seen in the Pit that actually belongs here. If you ever get banned, it won’t be for this post.

Oh and by the way. I hope you’ve noticed that you are one of the most hated mods here. I’ve certainly noticed it as I spend every single day here. You are a small-minded dickhead.

No, I disagree. I’d have moved it to MPSIMS.  
But since it’s evidently become a pattern, I think it can fall within mod discretion to close the thing. He can always open a new one in MPSIMS as it is.

Another thing - No disrespect to **Inigo Montoya** becuase I like him. But how the fuck do you allow his pointless threads and close mine? This, to me, smacks of dis-favouritism. It suggests that you monitor my posts and close those which you think you can get away with closing.

You hang out with KGS don’t you? Your grasp on reality is about the same. Frankly I hadn’t noticed that about you…

Well, when you open your fucking retarded threads in MPSIMS, they don’t get closed. Why not take the hint?

What the fuck is the point of a livejournal if nobody reads it? Haven’t I made the point that I am an attention whore? An attention whore puts his words somewhere where lots of people will read them.

Giraffe, just one question. Is your ass big enough to take all the kissing it’s about to get? Some of your salad-tossers have already shown up, but I suspect there’ll be a whole lot more.

People do read my threads. If they didn’t a Mod could happily leave it open and let it die.

I absolutely _don’t_ monitor your posts because, by and large, your posts are boring shit. I only close the threads of yours that are both egregiously stupid and in the wrong forum. The fact that this number, which for most people is either zero or one, is for you a significant number is kind of the problem. But for now I’m not focusing on the issue of you crapping up the board (e.g. [hay guyz whats the deal with love anyway??](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=493412)), I’m just focusing on you crapping up the Pit.

I do. I have a boring, well paid job, And when I’m not doing job-related things I’m browsing an internet managed by surf-control. If we could browse wherever we wanted I’d spend very little time on the SDMB.
