Okay, I’ve been a Doper for just about a year now. Have over 1,000 posts to my credit. And yet, somthing’s missing. . .I’ve never been pitted. I’ve never even been cautioned about my behavior by a moderator!
I have a particular friend who always calls me “Mary Poppins”. She says I’m a goody-two-shoes. Given my current state of affairs, I guess I must be.
So, who else here has a significant history, and yet is so pathetic they’ve never gotten into any trouble? 
Never been pitted, to my knowledge, but just about every other “daniel” here has.
Don’t insult us. You just watch yourself. We’re wanted men. I have the death sentence on twelve systems.
Daniel - I don’t believe I have been pitted, and I’m a Daniel. Perhaps we should pit eachother!..nah I could never do that to someone with my namesake.
I’ve never been pitted, mostly because I’m so dull I fade into the background.
See? That’s what I’m talking about. Dull as dishwater. I mean, who are all you people? I’ve never even heard of you!
Um, squeeky clean and wholesome here, for almost 3 years now, unpitted. I am your queen!!
I haven’t either, though I have been a member since 2000 and just passed 400 so I may have a ways to go.
I boringly bow down to your obvious superiority!
Four years and three months, never been pitted, never been flirted with, never mentioned in any of the “Dopers Who” threads (well, OK, except sometimes the “Favorite Screen Name” threads). Aside from the handful of posters I’ve met in person, I’m not sure anybody even knows who I am.
I’ve never been pitted either, but I have been cautioned. Twice! Once for calling an idiot an idiot, which, to be fair, was inappropriate in Great Debates. He was an idiot, though. The other time I let my opinions be known rather strongly in General Questions, so that was fair too.
And I do feel like I fade into the background occasionally.
Why would you want to be pitted in the first place? Do you want people to call you a sociopath, or what?
Likewise, here. Never pitted, largley ignored.
I was warned by a mod once.

Once!

Don’t get me wrong. Not that I want to be pitted. But, some years ago, I used to live on the edge a little. Apparently, these days my life is so boring I can’t even see the edge from where I am!
Awww norinew that is soooo cute they way you stamp your little foot about not being pitted.
But I was thinking of you the other day and…I…(yawn) ZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I understand how many of you feel. Sometimes I think maybe I should be more controversial. As it is now, my posts generally vanish into thin air, nobody gets my jokes, and everyone thinks my screenname is gibberish. I’ve been here two and a half years and I’m of utterly no consequence to anything that happens around here, but do you see me complaining? Well, yeah, I guess you do.
Yeah, I guess a lot of people have that “problem”. Well, maybe not december, he he.
Count me in as another Dan(iel) who has NPB status (Never Been Pitted).
Never had a moderator correct my behavior or close any of my threads, either (except for a GQ thread I opened about Photoshop, which came through as blank thanks to the hamsters being sick that day, but by the time I was ready to post it again I figured out my problem).
I stay out of Great Debates and I generally avoid political and religious threads as a whole. I avoid posting information I am not well-informed on or without cites to back up said information, and I tend to keep opinions on controversial subjects to myself.
Just like I am in real life, I’m not the life of the party or a guy who likes to draw much attention to himself. I feel like I’m the quiet guy who mostly stands on the sidelines, but jumps in with an occasional comment or two whenever it’s appropriate. IRL I do my best to avoid pissing people off and I do the same here.
I suppose you could pit yourself, if you’re in a self-loathing mood. That wouldn’t be self-pit-y, would it?
