Whom, or what, is this inor person/thing? He can’t spell for shit, and the shift key would seem to be missing from his keyboard. He’s such a nonentity, even Spellcheck won’t come out and play with him. You could juxtapose his wit and ‘humor’ on the head of a pin, and still have room for a resplendent white-trash trailor park. My cats have buried more interesting leavings in the litter box. At least my cats have the decency to BURY their shit. Not post them on message boards. If this guy has anything at all to do with automation, (as he claims), I say hear! hear! for manual labor. inor’s verbose dronings cause me to yawn uncontrollably, risking Repetitive Motion Disorder of my lower jaw at every read. Stop before I am forced to sue you for pain and suffering… ---

**inor** you seem to be missing the point here. People aren’t flaming you because of the original problem, they are flaming you because of your reactions and your subsequent interactions with them. Maybe you could just take a deep breath, apologize for being a jerk, and start over? And I don’t mean apologize to me, but to the rest of the people you have been unkind to in this thread. **Crunchy Frog** , for instance, who was just trying to help. We are really good at second chances around here. ---

**Freedom** - > [@](#): > > BTW… > > I thought your thread was funny, some peoploe around here just need to lighten up and get a sense of humor didn’t mention your name for some kind of alliance purposes-just to illustrate the fact that i wasn’t the only one who found it funny. those _are_ your words up there… sorry, didn’t mean to drag your name into/through any mud. tech chick- you could have said it right out, instead of being so vague- so you can stop slappin me upside the head now colfire- i am not wasting your time- you don’t moderate this forum, so you _don’t have_ to come back here and dip into this thread- you are the one taking those actions, so i submit: you are the one wasting your time. stop being a tit. crunchy- touche about the shift key. the comments though, to mercutio, were what they were because i am realizing that jsut because i have the sequence of events here, logic, reason, and my explanations to point to, i am not going to change his mind with those. so i spoke to him/her in terms that i felt were exactly how he posted at me. in every reply i have posted, i have responded in kind. if the post was not an attack on me, i have not attacked back. if the post was light-heartedly humorous, i responded likewise, and thanked the person. if the post contained vitriol directed at me, whether or not is was lamely labelled as ‘advice’, ‘friendly’, ‘godmod’ or otherwise, i responded with same. and where i have seen valid points, i have acknowledged them. and last, where someone has really raised an issue with something i have said, without the gratuitous bitchiness, i have apologised. ---

scotti- i submit that i was yelled at first. i have responded in a manner that is so revered at sdmb, there is even an external page devoted to it- opalcats page o flames. and crunchys comment notwithstanding, i spoke of your nerves, not your feelings. (i know crunchy- you’re ‘speculating’…) i see no apologies coming my way. the way i see it, i was trying to throw a little party, have some goofy fun. some people came and crashed it. i let them have it- again, in a manner i have seen repeatedly employed here. so they didn’t agree with my fun- give them the right to trash me? and just about every successive poster since, including you? in essence, you post was saying, ‘hey, i have this fantastic sense of humor, but _you_ are being such a non-funny dick that even _i_ am getting pissed at you.’ notice, i am responding in a totally different tone to this last post of yours. you are trying to make peace. i see that. trying to get me to reconsider the error of my ways. Thank you. I still did not start any hostilities- euty moved my _double entendre_ thread what a _dick_ i’m kinda _hot_ about it mods _suck_ it was a joke- no harm meant. no hostility directed at **any** body. then, they start flaming me, pure and simple. i respond in a like vein, pure and simple. because they don’t find funny what _i_ found funny. and it’s continued. no one seems cognizant of that simple fact- _i have not gone out hunting these people to flame them- in all cases, they have flamed me initially_ nope, not whining. and not apologizing either. given what has happened here, i find your statement about being good at giving second chances here to be not true, and i ain’t so sure i _want_ some second chance- it implies that i think everybody who has posted here is in the right and somehow i am the shithead. inor ---

::repeat audio of invisible airplane wooooshing over your head here:: Did you catch the fact that the rest of my post was a ridiculous explanation of how to put links into other threads?

Are you aware that I spent considerable time trying to raise the humor in inor’s thread? WTF??? Is there any better way to educate a newbie who tries to bring MPSIMS and ATMB into the PIT??? I spent at least 10 fucking minutes of my life trying to lampoon inor in the hope that nobody else would ever dare ask how to link another thread while posting in the pit. I INVESTED this time Lynn. Invested I say. I typed with the full knowledge and conviction that my post would be read by many, and the hope that some would laugh. Now you have consigned 10 minutes of my life to the friggin garbage can. My investment has been STOLEN from me. I know what you are doing. You are carrying on in your biased unfair arbitrary enforcement of Pit rules as if you own this place. Don’t you understand that this place depends on customers??? **I AM YOUR BOSS!!! BOW DOWN TO ME AND UNLOCK THAT FUCKING THREAD!!!** You are obviously trying to cheaply up your mod pit thread count by picking on newbies!!! In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that inor is actually just a fucking sock puppet of yours. Sneak in a couple of posts…get yourself in trouble…switch back to the Lynn account…then come back as the sock puppet to run up your thread count!!! Well you are stepping on my toes!!! I tried to make the thread funny!!! You wasted my life!!! How will I recover my ten minutes!!???!?!?!??!?!?!!?? This fucking board is so unfair and cliqueish. I’m going to go get my friends and start my own clique. Then we will see who is laughing. ---

Of course… I have nowhere near the balls required to start a thread flaming Lynn. Should I ever get the urge, I will probably just take a long cold shower, chop some wood or run a couple of miles… 'Cause I really like posting on the Straight Dope:) ---

i see- so _you_ didn’t like the thread either, despite the fact that you said you found it funny. sorry bud, trying to be friendly. guess i oughtta take it elsewhere? (huge outpouring of yesses). i don’t know free- since you _said_ you liked it, that’s what i thought… now i don’t know where you’re coming from, but you seem to be saying you _didn’t_ find it funny, and that you were trying to _funny it up_ for me. thanks? ---

Welcome to the board inor. The replay of the airplane audio was for thinking I thought the original thread was funny. However… I thought the Double Entendre thread was funny. I don’t hang out in that part of the board, but I took a stroll over there to see what all the fuss was about. Smart move on apoligizing. The board is big on second chances. Take your time, things get rough quick around here. The Pit is the wrong place to start. I’ll be waiting for my opm, I accept checks and money orders:) When you send that plane, gas it up, because I live in Alaska, so it is a loooong trip. ---

Inor, inor, inor. Many other posters have learned, to their sorrow, never to post while drunk. Perhaps you should learn from their mistakes. Turn off your computer, put down the 40 oz, and go to bed. Trust me, you’ll thank me in the morning. ---

lynn- you stomped on me, i stomped back. that’s that. didn’t _start_ an atmb thread, just apologised for not knowing how to do something- didn’t solicit atmb-type of advice, unknowingly (unintentionally, ignorantly)crossposted an msims thread in the pit. flamed where i got flamed. did not think i had to treat mods with kid gloves. didn’t. apologised where i saw it was the right thing to do. didn’t where i didn’t. gave humor and a modicum of respect back when i got humor and a modicum of respect. yep, i’m the devil. yep, ya’ll are the kings of second chances. ---

The Pit thread _was not_ about banning APBTs. The GD thread _was_ about banning APBTs. There is a subtle difference there. Also **oldscratch** did not write the OP of both threads. So **oldscratch** did not cross-post because not only do the OPs cover different topics (related, but different), he was not the person who started both threads. In your threads, from what I gather, you were trying to get humorous double entendres. You had originally posted the first thread in the Pit, where it was moved for being in the wrong forum. You subsequently started a 2nd thread in Pit for the exact same purpose as the first thread. So let’s break down the differences between your and the **oldscratch** threads: _His thread_: different topic. His OP is about attitudes and other posters in a thread angering him. It is not debating about the banning of APBTs. _your theads_: humorous double entendres. Same subject, same joke, both threads. _His thread_: different thread starters. **oldscratch** did not start the GD thread, so he was not cross-posting. _Your thread_: you started both threads even after being told once this wasn’t the forum for it. Does that clear things up? [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/lynn/53948.md?page=3) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/lynn/53948.md?page=5)
