> [@Treppenwitz](#): > > In their first two days, **MarkSh** has started eight threads… and made no posts. Just sayin’. They seem to have an interest in pop culture. It might be innocent. I’ll see if he replies to his thread asking about being able to move his supervised probation to another state. That seemed like a pretty big one, if he doesn’t go back in that thread it would be weird. That thread was a lot more personal than the other “here’s an idea to discuss among yourselves” threads. ---

Now Mark seems to be going more subtle, bringing up rape and consent issues under guise of a Cafe Society thread about Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It still definitely has the “faux outrage” vibe. The guy doing the “prove me wrong” table meme suddenly switches to the uberfeminist view? That seems sus. ---

Eh, he’s all over the place and that’s his second attempt at a Buffy thread. I think some newbies see the broad nature of topics here and think of it as another kind of Reddit. They don’t realize that we’re a much smaller community than the breadth of material would suggest and they go a little wild with posting topics. ---

IANA Mod but at the very least there’s a big ol’ Warning coming his way, if not a suspension or worse, because that was either trolling or batshit insanity. **Roger\_That** lives up to his avatar in the ATMB thread asking why his child rape thread was closed. Weep for the trials and tribulations of the eloquent, who dare to add a “little extra colour” to their posts. We appreciate the cross you so selflessly bear for us, and feel terrible about the persecution you face from the “Mod Hive” and “report after report” by posters. https: //boards. straightdope. com/t/just-curious-why-is-this-thread-closed-for-review/962112/15 ---

It’s like a guy running around with an open robe, his wrinkly old man parts flapping around, and when people shout how disgusted they are he apologizes, heads back inside, and comes out 15 minutes later in an open robe again but this time with his body hair shaved off. Folks like that just need to be kept away from other people. ---

No remorse or even a lip service apology. Also he thinks 1 day is 3 days, so he’s bad at math and discourse apparently. His post reminds me of the **EC** days. ---

He’s right that it’s not the hypothetical, but the language that he used that got him in trouble. But he doesn’t seem to understand that that’s exactly what the problem is. Yes, the language that you use _does_ matter. ---
