This is good Klaatu, let go of your anger here, don’t pollute other threads with it. This is what LHOD wants, and there is a lot of merit in the idea.
No, I love his handle and I was going to write that! I can’t believe you had the nerve to steal an idea *right out of my head * and use it like that…
I do really love that handle and wish I were half as clever…
The Pit thrives on anger, as you should well know, being you have a bit of history here yourself, heh.
Does anyone else think that, just as a general rule, Klaatu and Death Ray should be kept as far apart as possible? You just never know when Gort’s gonna take an interest, is what I’m saying, here. http://classics.www5.50megs.com/gort/gortinfinite.htm
Gort is well aware.

Bruce Campbell hates you.
I read your hate and I resent you for forcing me to post it.
It your reforce post-sent hate I … Damn it, this is harder than it looks!
I won’t lie–it’s pretty gratifying that folks are coming in and saying nice things about me, and I appreciate it. But that’s not the reason I posted this thread: the OP was completely honest about my reasons.
Check out Unclebeer’s link from before. I’ve used this method before, to good effect: after I posted that thread, Shodan stopped that particular hijink, when nothing else I’d tried had worked.
If this thread can accomplish the same thing without pages of vitriol, then excellent. If, however, I keep getting sniped at by the club, then I’ll keep posting links to this thread and responding to them here.

Consider the possibility that those who would criticize him might not feel like giving him the satisfaction he seems to be asking for.
Still, I haven’t read the threads in question; if in fact people are following him around to insult him. . .that’s just the type of message board insanity I don’t understand at all.
I have noticed the LHoD does indeed have a small fan club members that seem to intensely dislike him.
Perhaps you could try not deliberately misinterpreting what your political opponents say, and then piously denouncing it when people deliberately misinterpret what their political opponents say.
You can be a good poster, sometimes, and sometimes you can be a big fat hypocrite. Calling you on it is hardly a hijack.
Didn’t you misinterpret what someone said in the linked thread? You apologized for it, which is to your credit, so maybe your self-Pitting did do some good after all.

Shodan
That was either a good woosh on my behalf or you’re confusing me with someone else, I have no history in the Pit that I’m aware of.
I dunno, I’m kinda with King of Soup here–I admittedly don’t recall too much animosity between LHoD and his “fan club” in threads that I’ve read, and it really seems in that last one (which I did read, and posted only to drop a drive-by insult on Dex :P) that his defensiveness was what started the whole thing, not any pile-on of pre-existing hatreds. In other words:
I think that the initiation of the nastiness in the thread-that-spawned-this was your own doing, LHoD.
Shodan, if you’d like to continue that debate, there’s a thread specifically dedicated to it. If you’re just trying to prove that it didn’t work, too bad.
Zeriel, if you look at that one thread in isolation, I can see how it’d appear that way. However, there were two or three threads in the last week or two where scumpup had done exactly what I’d predicted he’d do. My comment wasn’t coming out of nowhere.
Daniel
Sorry, you don’t get to bring up a thread and demand that I not respond.
If you wanted to Pit yourself and expect only positive feedback, well, to quote someone who should know better, too bad.
Regards,
Shodan
Hmm…a thinly-disguised ‘Who Wants to Touch Me?’ thread masquerading as a ‘Please Stop Persecuting Me, If Not For My Sake, Then For The Sake of The Board’ thread. Unh-hunh. Whatever.
Welcome, Thespos! I’m so glad you found the thread!
Daniel
Well, I don’t think it’s working this time. While you have nine posts in this thread already, the persons mentioned in your OP haven’t responded at all.
It’d have fewer pages if you’d quit responding. The persons whom you’re pitting obviously (to me) have no interest in participating. Given that, the longer you keep this thing alive, the more it begins to look like your using this for self-validation. I almost never agree with what you have to say, Daniel, but you positions are generally pretty well thought out and supportable. This thread, however, not so much, especially since, as I just said, you’re the one keeping it alive.
At first, I thought that the “fan club” thing was supposed to be sarcastic. But now it’s looking like it’s in fact genuine and maybe this should be moved to Mundane Pointless stuff, where the actual fan club can continue snuggling you.
