Seriously, though, Montezuma, calm down and just write the incident off. Honestly, I don’t think you’ve been all that polite in these threads, and you’re just digging a hole for yourself.
Why? Because he’s an asshole.
True fact. Let’s see him ‘call bullshit’ on that one!
Fenris
Well, I’ve been sick and my asshole tolerance levels have been really low lately. However. . .
If you want to see an example of how “the little posters” can get a chance you can look at the Pit thread I started about King Nifty.
He was acting like an ass (in my estimation anyways) and I started the thread. He apologized and he hasn’t entered random threads to call people liars since. I asked that the thread be closed and it was. End of story. Or so you would think.
Nope. Here he is complaining about how mean other posters are to jerks. You know, I was only kidding about the Why Can’t We Be Asshats Commeration Society and now look-- they’ve got their very own thread.
Gosh, King Nifty, for someone who’s so interested in other people’s honesty, you sure do lie alot. Let’s catalogue your latest gems.
In GQ or GD? Unfortunetly, I doubt that you ever did. Else you’d have been banned by now, as insults outside of the Pit are a no-no. However, you have insulted her in the Pit. She’s already quoted the relevant bits from Montezuma’s Pitting, where you insulted everyone who’d already posted in that thread. Which, as it happens, included Jodi. So, you’re a liar for saying she started all of this.
Again, Jodi has already covered this. On top of this, in every post you make, you say “I’m never posting in the Pit again.” And yet, you keep posting in the Pit. This makes you a liar.
Except you hadn’t left the forum, had you? You had to come back to take another swipe at all the people who have the audacity to be offended by your inexcusable behavior. Once again, you’re a liar.
Mmm… Nope. You don’t get the last word in this, much as you’d like to. As long as you continue to try to defend the indefensible, people are going to continue to call you on it. This will not stop until A) you offer a sincere and unconditional apology, B) you stop acting like an asshole, or C) you are eventually banned. Since neither A nor B seems likely to come to pass in the foreseeable future, the pittings will continue. However, I still hold out some hope for C. Incidentally, the following are not lies. I ma willing to allow that they are honest mistakes caused by your marginal brain functions: Nothing that’s been said about you here constitutes libel, nothing myself nor lno has done comes close to banworthy, or even jerkishness, and there is no such word as “Unsolicitedly.”
From the fact that you didn’t take issue with any of the other instances I called you liar, is it safe to assume that you concede to all the other counts? I guess that’s progress. Oh, wait. I never accused you of insulting Jodi in GQ or GD. Guess that means you’re still lying. For every step forward you take two steps back.
Okay, one last time, and I’ll type slow so you can follow. People aren’t angry at you for not reading the forum descriptions. People are angry at you for accusing random strangers of being liars with zero evidence. Get it yet, moron? When you’re offering an apology, it’s usually a good idea to apologize for the actual offense, not for something tangenital that no one gives a shit about.
Most of us do not, in fact, unquestioningly believe every anecdote we read on these boards. I suspect that more than a few of them are embellished if not wholly imaginary. However, I don’t go around calling people liars without proof. It’s called manners. Who raised you, anyway, that you think this sort of behavior is acceptable in any forum, wether on the internet or in real life?
See, the problem here is that there is no defense for the way you’ve been acting. Stop defending and start apologizing, or you’ll just keep getting more insults.
Try Cafe Society. Fenris has an almost encyclopedic knowledge of superhero comics, and is extremely well read in classic science fiction. His responses in that forum generally are chock-full of facts and merity goodness. He is also pretty goddamned funny, but that’s a subjective judgement, and you are clearly a humorless fuck who wouldn’t know a good joke if it bit him on the ass, so I guess you can’t be blamed for not realizing that.
I’m going to take a chance and pre-emptivly call you a liar on this one.
Wow. King Nifty shows up out of nowhere, attacks a bunch of posters for absolutely no reason, and now all of a sudden he’s the SDMB Defender of the Weak? And of all the people he decides to back up, he picks an utter shitheel like Montezuma? I’d almost think you two were each other’s sock puppets, except you actually seem lucid and intelligible, which is a standard Montezuma has yet to obtain.
Then what do you call this, from Page 1 of this thread?
Hmmm. Looks to me like you’re accusing me of insulting Jodi in GQ or GD. Gosh Miller, you sure do lie alot, Potsy.
Now I suppose you’ll totally ignore that part and accuse me of lying by coming back to defend myself. Sorry, but there’s no way I could let you claim you never accused me of insulting Jodi in GQ and GD, when it’s blatantly obvious that you did. Stop lying and baiting, and I’ll go away. Easy, right? Leave me alone, and you can have your forum of hatred and bile. Why can’t you? If I’m an asshole and a liar, what does it say about you to continue to goad me? How hard is it to leave me alone? I’m going to take a chance and pre-emptively presume that it’s not possible. Everyone has to get their notice me digs in, especially Fenris, class clown. And Fenris, I already claimed I was an asshole, so I’m not sure what you’re getting at there. Unless it’s to be hilarious, which wouldn’t surprise me, you’re like the Uncle with the tired party trick that he dusts off every family reunion.
Who the hell is that? It can’t be King Nifty, he already promised to stick to General Questions and Great Debates.
Liar.
Yes, they all notice you Terminus Est. Thank you for proving my point.
You mean proving the point that you can’t keep your word, and have the gall to call other people liars?
You didn’t say “I’m not coming back unless you keep goading me.” In fact, you specifically said you were not coming back because people were goading you. Conclusion: you’re a fucking liar and a hypocrite. And unlike you, we have evidence when we call people that.
I reiterate: you can end this easily. Offer a sincere apology and demonstrate an understanding of how one behaves in civilized company, and people will accept it graciously. Alternately, just leave. If you can’t summon up the maturity to do either of those, then reconcile yourself to being goaded until we get bored.
All we are sayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyying… is give lil posters a channnnnce…
Again with the Potsy!
Now I can’t stop thinking of Dieter from Spockets doing the thumbs-up and saying “Sit on it, Potsy.”
Nifty, we are making you respond to us? Why not just not respond to what we are saying? It’s your choice whether or not to respond, so stop blaming everyone else for it.
Fucking moron.
I am honoured that His Majesty would condescend to notice this grovelling worm.
Liar, liar, pants on fire.
Nifty, you must be looking directly into a mirror when you post…
Wha- Say… Huh - Wha…?
Every goddam ‘call bullshit’ post you’ve made is a big fucking NOTICE ME sign!! You pretend to be the loner standing against the wall in a faded leather jacket, chain smoking to look cool, only bothering to speak just long enough to utter mono-syllabic sentences that presume to be the truth about the world.
Wake up, Dylan. Brenda doesn’t live here anymore.
Your ‘cool’ act doesn’t work here. Being yourself does. (Of course, we’re all screwed if that really is all there is to you.) And predicting shit like gravity and what number comes after 3 and other fairly fucking OBVIOUS occurances proves no point at all. Yeah, the next post will probably call you an asshole. You knowing that doesn’t make you less of an asshole. It’s an annoying tactic that earns you even more ire than usual.
Maybe you should just go back to GD/GQ. For real this time.
Well, he got me on the GD/GQ thing. Sorry about that, Nifty.
I take it you concede I was correct the other fifteen or so times I called you a liar?
One down.
It’s like they’re riding bucking broncos and trying to hold on the longest. Personally, I would have sent KN home first, as he’s admitted being an asshole and having no intention of changing.
So did Coll, and he’s still here.
A lot of people have admitted they’re assholes. And you know, admitting it is only the first step to a full recovery.
Darn, I was hoping he would take his football and go home. Montezuma may be gone, but his posting style lives on (for now).
Hey Bosco, ever heard of “cause and effect”? Take a look back upthread and see who attacked who first in this thread? Then let’s talk about goading.
On the other hand, it seems to be your MO to try to get me to participate in a thread 'cause you’re hot for me. Just admit it. You’ll feel better. I still won’t be interested in you sexually, but you’ll feel better for getting it off your chest.

And here we were having a bonding moment. We both agree you’re an asshole.

Heh. I think I’ve made threadspotting more than any other single Doper except maybe Scylla and or Rue.
Heh…20,000 Dopers can’t be wrong.
