Looked like a trock popped up to defend our dear departed @kearsen1. Didn’t get much of a chance to read it before it got whisked to the cornfield.
“Hi! I’m a completely new person to these boards and I want to complain about how this ONE GUY WHO IS SO TOTALLY NOT ME was handled by the admins!”
Oh, and that’s not my bloody glove either. So there Neener!!!
Great (if harrowing) thread. I’ll pass on the footage, thanks.
Not even close. You have 50+ OPs before that one.

You did burst on the scene with more OPs than many. Back in Jan of 2007, the 12th to be precise, you unleashed this Nietzsche-related post on the unsuspecting TMs as your first OP.
Just 10 days after your opening salvo of 8 response posts on Jan 2 2007:

In case you wondered, the Discourse advanced search feature really rocks for this kind of research.
Great. I wish I could deep-six half the stuff I’ve posted here.
I’ve never made the mistake of starting a thread.
I was so excited about this place when I found it, I probably went a little overboard. I remember describing it like that Lisa Simpson episode where a smart girl moves into town, and she’s really excited to have a new friend until she learns the smart girl is better than her at everything.
Spice/Olives, I hope that didn’t come across as stalkerish or me poking fun at your early self here.
It has been very gratifying to watch, and participate, and maybe even help a smidgen, as you’ve put your worst problems behind you.
Unfortunately for each of us, the Internet is forever. Both for good and for cringeworthy.
That does make me feel a bit better, thanks. When I feel bad about it, I try to remind myself that I had a lot to sort through. And yes, you guys have very much helped me get perspective over the years.
Assholes.
Well, this is a thread about trolls. Big hug and enjoy your evening!
I, on the other hand, am not a computer, so I’m not particularly touchy about capitalization of my initial letter.
Ingrate.
What about other letters, ravenThief?
What doesn’t kill you makes you wronger…
Should we capitalize uncapitalized user names at the beginning of sentences, @discobot?
Hi! To find out what I can do, say @discobot display help

I just realized discobot is a fan of Futurama.
Oh, hey, discobuddy! Long time no see. Do you still have it out for @kaylasdad99?
