So I think we’ve established that no one in this thread is Mel Brooks, and also that no one is Richard Pryor either.

Shall we keep going? Is there a Graham Chapman in the thread?

Here it is in a nutshell:

When Ed said “we’re getting tired of our inboxes filling up with complaints about you” Morgenstern assumed that the people being warned were those making the complaints.

Morgenstern is wrong.

I think this one is arguments. Abuse is the other thread.

(Yeah, I give up.)

See, this is the kind of response a troll would make. Pretending that that single post was the problem, rather than your continual and on-going behavior on the board.

As I said, if you choose to ignore the feedback you’ve received (as you are clearly determined to), good luck with that.

Remember when those H-trolls who were rooting for Ole Miss flew into a hysteria even though the player for the other team didn’t even really break any rules and then the home plate umpire initiated a lulzfest himself over, again, nothing more than his own hurt feelings?

It’s fine as long as you say “Excuse me” before you whip it out.
