But even more telling. crowmanyclouds’ most replied to

[octopus](https://boards.straightdope.com/u/octopus)

101

then Starving Artist with 89 posts, then DrDeth with 53 posts then Demon Tree with 61 posts.

I also remember this quote from last month.

I looked up the Pit threads on other posters going back two months at the time. wolfpup was in 4 ouf of 7 of them. crowmanyclouds was in all 7. Both with multiple posts, most threads in the dozens. It doesn’t say what it implies–that these two people don’t participate in pile-ons. It just says that they’re mightily pissed off by pretty much everyone who is Pit. That doesn’t really say anything about the people being Pit.

This is why when some liberals on this board tell conservatives to take a good look at themselves, I roll my eyes.
