It wasn’t even a particularly interesting or worthwhile insult.
He took a shot at me in a cricket thread for being a self loathing person because I didn’t agree that there was a conspiracy by the umpires in a match between India and Pakistan.
Just to be clear, I’m a (born) Pakistani who has supported the Pakistan cricket team for nigh on 50 years. But I don’t hate India enough for his liking.
He’s a generally antagonistic poster. His comments throughout the World Cup thread never quite crossed a line, but they were almost always more aggressive than necessary.
There’s a certain type of person who thinks that this kind of aggression is what you do when you’re smarter than everyone else.
…or more masculine.
Just wanted to mention, that after a mod review, said poster was banned today.

Figured it should be mentioned so if anyone stumbles back over it years later, they know the who/what/when/where/why.
I’ll also flag it, because @Miller probably will want to close it, as they have with other threads for banned posters.
Yep, thanks. This is closed now.
