> [@brewha](#): > > Not trying to be a smart ass, but is saying “fuck you” allowed anywhere? I assume not, but specifying “in the pit” makes it sound like perhaps it is. When directed towards another poster, no, it’s never allowed. Directed towards off-board personalities, it’s acceptable across the board, although in some other forums, it may be moderated if you’re excessively profane. ---

> [@Sierra\_Indigo](#): > > He’s started posting more frequently of late, and every post he’s made in threads I’ve been reading has included the pointless emphasis qutoes. I’m not tracking him, it’s just something that’s come to my notice with his increased posting rate of late. It’s not just you, I’ve been noticing it as well. Amusingly enough, the random underlining, quotation marks, and bolding are also habits of one **Susanann** , something that often gets mentioned in her pittings. ---

> [@Sierra\_Indigo](#): > > Will you stop that? You don’t need to put emphasis quotes around every idiom or turn of phrase you lift from somewhere. Every single “post” of yours that I’ve noticed has had something quote-marked “for emphasis” randomly. Please, just stop it. Hmmm… Duly noted. Didn’t realize that it offended. ☹ Consider it, “stopped”. :rolleyes: I couldn’t resist, throwing in just… one… more. 😛 ---

Ugh. Apparently, [she’s a Catholic](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=14055211&postcount=8). Why, God, why??? I’ll have my camera ready when some batshit crazy lady starts arguing during the sermon - that way we will know what **Susanann** looks like. ---

Ooooook… Seeing as how I’m under the microscope, so to speak, is there anybody _ **else** _, that has any constructive criticism, to offer?

Oddly enough, the last **Susanann** pit thread was derailed by attacks on a relatively infrequent poster and their posting habits… **expectopatronum** and his refusal to capitalize. :dubious: [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-very-overdue-pitting-of-susanann/590032.md?page=9) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-very-overdue-pitting-of-susanann/590032.md?page=11)
