Skald the Rhymer is annoying

Crickets from the mods because we looked into it, and determined pretty quickly that 6impossiblethings isn’t a sock for Skald. Most obvious one was that Skald doesn’t sign his posts, but we’ve got other tools at our disposal to figure things like that out.

He doesn’t, but the post in question was written in the shape of a form letter, so I hope that wasn’t your smoking gun. Thanks for the response.

I did.

It was not.

Hell, I think you’ll find they’re the majority. I’m just the only one who still tries when the hatesquad comes in, while they’ve given up.

But note that I don’t defend Skald because I like him. I defend him because I can see what is happening. I know the tactics. The thread from a long time ago. The falsehoods about how someone “always” posts. The people who don’t normally post in his threads suddenly showing up because they see an opening. The fucking inability to believe that a person can’t get better. The hijacking a thread about one thing ("why people get mad about hypotheticals thread, this thread which is about and was rezzed because Skald annoyed people, not because of sexism) The extreme cherrypicking. The conspiracies being created (like a poster being a sock). I’ve seen it often, and even experienced it myself.

I don’t know Skald beyond what he posts. I know I like his hypotheticals. And I know because I post in them that many of the claims are false. I’ve seen how he interacts with people kindly, and how he responds when people find something he says offensive.

I may not know him, but I know this “sex-addicted misogynist who is only posting her for sadistic sexual thrills” bullshit is false. And I thus defend him from these accusations. Just like I would anyone else who was falsely accused.

I’ve not been here long enough to know Skald. I have been here long enough to know the squad that goes around the board calling people names and being assholes to everyone for kicks. They move in a group like a bunch of emo teens and pile on. Then they run to other places and brag about their conquests over here. They sit around counting up their brownie points, patting each other on the back. Proud of the job they’ve done poking fun and thrilling at the worry they think they’ve caused. Guess what? No one cares what you think. No one loses sleep over your proclamations. You are a very tiny speck of dirt on an otherwise clean mirror. You need to grow up. If you don’t like Skald, don’t read his threads. It’s so simple. If this board is so horrible why do you keep coming over here? Why do you devote whole threads on that other board to whats happening over here? You’ve proved your ignorance. The same ignorance this board is trying to fight.

P.S. I do like cheese, who doesn’t?

so, Expecto might complain about the guy who is turned on by rape but this is really all about you?

You truly are the Clarence Darrow of the SDMB.

You know what? I may only read about half of Skald’s hypotheticals and respond to about half of those.

I don’t think talking about two lesbian women is salacious or creepy. It’s just life. If you have a problem with homosexuality, then sure, you’re going to look at it cross eyed, but don’t expect those of us who don’t have this problem to do more than roll our eyes. I don’t try to get someone’s personality out of posts like that and I certainly don’t keep a spreadsheet or bookmarks of people’s quirks to throw back at them 12 years later on this board. That sort of thing definitely makes an impression on me, and it isn’t a good one.

My liking Skald has nothing to do with these posts and more to do with his other posts. If someone wants to try to read something evil into my character because of my defense of him, I’ll happily put them on ignore, just as I would walk away from someone in real life if they tried that to my face.

No you don’t. You assume it is false and then go into full BigTard mode defending him with your SJW shtick. You really are predictable and boring with this shtick. That’s why the appropriate response to you seems to be SUBT.

Splinter, eye, beam, dude. You, Fenris, Expecto, and the rest of the mean girl gang are growing increasingly agitated as nobody else wants to join in your hate-on. Talk about a predictable, boring schtick.

Exactly.

It wasn’t shtick a few months back when I pitted Shagnasty and you were one of the first responders, seemingly in support of my OP. So why is it considered shtick now? Misogyny from one member is regarded as distasteful, but from another it’s okay?

Ain’t nothing 'bout me, hon. Except the cheese part, I fully accept that as a truism.

Point expecto. 30-15.

I haven’t said one word about Skald in this thread nooblet. Your reading comprehension is that bad.
So SUBT to you too.

You do cut a lot of cheese in these threads.

You haven’t said one word about SKald in a thread about SKald. So you admit you’re again just insulting and trolling. What a sad little man you are.

You still mad Sir Derp? Can’t see any other reason you’re stalk me around like you do.

This may be my favorite thread ever.
