OP:
-
While some of my actions have been moronic, I’ll concede, psychopathic… “I do not think it means what you think it means”. A psychopathic disorder is characterized by a lack of empathy and remorse and a history of emotional and or physical cruelty. I’ve never been cruel and God knows I’ve never had a lack of remorse or empathy.
I do have a sense of irony, however. I’m currently basking in the ironic glow of being called psychopathic by one who hosts a site where cowards anonymously wish violence and death upon others. -
Yes, I did email my personal info to Excalibre. This was moronic (well chosen term), but I did so in a moment of extreme agitation (my mother was dying, had been ridiculed harshly and wished painful death on that site, I had reason to believe he was involved [I no longer give a damn one way or the other]), and in response to his taunting and using my real name in a post I said words to the effect of “Unlike you I’m not a coward- here’s my name, address and contact info, I don’t give a damn who has it or who you share it with”. Not one of the brighter things I’ve done, probably, but then as now- I don’t care who knows my real name and I’m not a cowards and my mother hardly ever has a funeral anymore to disrupt, though I will request that you not post it there just for the harassment factor.
I most certainly **did not ** ask for it to be posted in combination with the information about my mother’s funeral, which I did not email to anybody. If you deny it happened, I have screencaps from it that have the time stamped.
And I note that you don’t deny for a moment that there have been many posts wishing death and rape to “trannies” and “fags” and other ilk. Good to know you have your standards.
A note to mods and others: Please don’t worry, I’m not going to flame out or spaz out. Today the absurdity and pathetical nature of that site amuses me when I think of it at all, and believe it or not I’m not even angry about it anymore. A moment I’m neither proud nor ashamed of from an eventful past year and nothing more or less.
Of course, no plan works perfectly…
So let me get this straight: you’re prohibited from doing it there, but excalibre actually did it there? Seems to me if he was allowed to post it there, it’s not prohibited there. What am I missing?
re: psychopath. Sorry, I guess the death threats threw me off. mea culpa.
Anyway, I’m glad the snarkers can keep you amused. I know you’ve never disappointed us.
eta: woodstock, you are missing that it was quickly erased, but not before someone got a copy and decided to c&p it a few more times. It actually took a fair of effort to stop that spam, due to the wish to keep the place anonymous. “Someone” must have been waiting awful patiently for the screen capture.
He wasn’t “allowed” to post it; it was deleted as soon as the mods there became aware of it.
Did I threaten death? I thought it was just an ass kicking?
Well, either or. A psychopath would be less likely to threaten someone with death than to just kill them. This particular week I’d rather sleep and finish watching Dead Like Me on DVD than do either.
Though of course excalibre wasn’t banned and no recourse was taken. Imagine if someone had done that here.
And, btw, I never did sabotage the board as I’ve been repeatedly accused of doing I understand, though I do think it’s funny that I have that high-tech a rep.
Threats of ass kicking don’t generally include how well armed you are, at least North of the Mason-Dixie.
Cultural difference, then. Probably somehow tied into sweet tea.
What would you have them do? Not to defend them, mind you, but the place is basically set up specifically to allow anonymity. Anyone can post without registering; that’s just the nature of the beast. Sure, they could have banned his Excalibre username, but what would be the point?

I think this is officially enough “off-board” business, so if you need me I’ll be wildly masturbating to some John Stamos Cabaret bootleg videos, hence make like a wiener and knock-first.
To combine both these ideas (have I ever compared two such completely different Dopers?!), I’ve always seen that other board as a place to just snark and tease us here with an over-the-top idiocy. Not as a place used to produce actual hurtful acts.
I think of it as the bitchfest that goes on at EVERY single watercooler at work. People bitch. It’s natural and human. When I’m alone with Bill at work I’m usually yelling about how Linda is late every figgin day. That doesn’t mean I don’t like Linda, or when I ask how her kid’s prom was I’m not being facetious, it just means I’m bitching.
Let me use a real life board example of what VCO3 was talking about.
I like Mouse Maven. I think she’s funny, and as a fellow lab rat I feel we share some sort of test tube comradere. But enough with the pregnancy related posts! I look forward to the day when you give birth to a healthy young baby and post the pictures, but enough! I want to pull my hair out when I see a new one, which feels like every freakin’ day!
Is that rant enough for it’s own pit thread? Heavens no. And more likely than not I’d get my ass flamed for it. Thankfully there is a place I can go to bitch about work/board things that are too mindless to bring up elsewhere.
Oh, and thanks for showing where I did try email. I really didn’t know what else to do. It’s Tuba’s forum and she didn’t respond, I figured **Dex ** could help. How many mods do I have to hunt down especially when it’s not even their forum? I’m not trying to be critical, just saying I gave it a good honest try and didn’t know what else to do.

IPs weren’t being logged at the time. They started getting logged specifically to stop the person from posting your personal information.

You’re welcome.
And public proxies are a dime a dozen.
Meant to respond to this- that is really sweet of you, but I feel lately I probably have, in fact. I… just haven’t been snarkworthy of late, I don’t know what’s come over me. Aging I guess. But— I appreciate your kindness, but I really can’t shake the notion that I’ve probably not done all I could of late to be amusing to you. I’d promise to do better in the future, but I think we’d only be fooling ourselves.
Let’s just keep the memories of the good times we shared, and we’ll always have the raped and murdered trannies. But I prefer it here, while your intellect and abilities are more suited to there, and as the good book says, “Scarlett O’Hara was not beautiful”. C’est la vie and all happiness in your future snarking.
Maybe you’re right. In the old days that lame attempt at humour would have been a 2 pager. 
Which all Dopers are forced to read.
One of us proudly partakes in the management of a board where people legally harass others and wish death/rape/violence on “trannies” and do it with cowardly anonymity and complete impunity. The other one is me.
I don’t think you realize the degree to which this trumps anything you can say by way of riposte, so I’ll translate it into something perhaps you can understand:
No you.
Anus.
TLDR
Toodles 
What an odd thread.
I wish I knew what “long time banned poster” is still lurking around trying to wreak havoc upon our boards. On the one hand, it would be playing into his hand and giving him attention that he apparently lacked as a child. On the other hand, the southerner in me really wants to know.
Oh, and just when i thought Sampiro’s life couldn’t get any more bizarre…
To those on the Dope and beyond who brought their shovels and their Febreze, I raise this schnapps. L’Chaim!
To the others- well, when shit is all you have and all you can make, I’ve no desire to take it away from you.
