Did I ask for or do I give a flaming shit about your "sympathy? ? So let’s get this straight. You object to the tone of Great Debates and won’t sully yourself by entering the place, and yet this is the level of discourse that you resort to at the drop of a hat? What a hypocrite. Admit it. You’re just a whiny drama queen who’s in a snit because the moderators dared, \* dared \* to close a thread you started. You’ve dragged the thread out to two pages, shaking your impotent fist at the heavens, accusing the moderators of fuck-ups, citing chapter and verse, and generally wasting everyone’s time because you perceive it as a personal insult that your thread was closed. Do you realize how sad this is? Most people would have sucked it up and gone on with their lives. ---

> [@Otto](#): > > Thanks for locking down [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=279961). There’s a reason I started it in IMHO rather than GD. I don’t go into GD. I don’t _like_ GD. And I’m not the only one. There are I would be willing to bet a number of people who would like to discuss the debate in the more casual atmosphere of IMHO than the more hardcore GD atmosphere. So now the choices are either go into a forum they don’t like or not discuss the debate at all. > > Thanks for nothin’. Casual atmosphere and politics? You are deluding yourself. If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. ---

**Otto** , get a grip man! In the grand scheme of things, having a thread closed on the SDMB is a very very minor annoyance. If you disagree with the reasons stated by the Mods for the closure… OK, you disagree; but I don’t think it’s worth an ulcer! A sigh maybe, but not all this drama… ---

> [@Czarcasm](#): > > (BTW, thanx for posting in that thread this afternoon-you didn’t happen to do that just so that you could use it as an example, did you? Nah, that would be just as paranoid as whatever it is you’re complaining about here.) Gee sparky, I hate to deflate yet another of your asinine points, but **DMark** revived that thread some 13 hours before I posted to it. > [@Finagle](#): > > So let’s get this straight. You object to the tone of Great Debates and won’t sully yourself by entering the place, and yet this is the level of discourse that you resort to at the drop of a hat? What a hypocrite. Wow, you really are dumber than advertised. Try re-reading the various posts in which I talked about what I don’t like about GD threads and see if you can figure it out on another time through them. > [@Finagle](#): > > Do you realize how sad this is? I don’t know, is it anywhere near as sad as your repeated responses? I mean really, feel free to stay the fuck out if it’s such a time-waster to you. I don’t remember sending the armed goons to your house to force you to click on the thread… > [@Blalron](#): > > If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. Christ on a fucking crumbheap…I _do_ stay out of the “kitchen” of GD. That’s the _point_. ---

Give it up, **Otto**. Logic won’t work here, and people aren’t listening. Mods are in collusion to back up one another no matter what, and the average doper is a piece of shit (don’t be surprised if I get banned for this). I asked for answers in “about this message board” and got shut down, and ridiculed for even asking. [Check it out yourself](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=280039). I guess if you want to stay here, you got to pay your taxes and _still_ step lightly to avoid disturbing the King and Queen. ---

You’re really, like, totally oppressed, man. The man, has, like, got you under it’s, like, thumb, man. Stick it to them, man. Like, fight the power! Those jackbooted Nazis, acting all, like, civil and stuff. Shit. How can you stand it? ---

**Otto** , when **SnakeSpirit** takes your side in an argument, that’s a pretty clear signal that you need to sit back, relax, take another look at it, _and switch sides_. ---

BTW, when you say “King” and “Queen”, who exactly are you refering to? I mean, I’ve always thought of myself as the Court Jester. ---
