> :checks thread: Yup, still in ATMB. Maybe you were thinking of the Pit, **Una**? There’s even an open thread there related to this one. Of course, given the way that turned out, I can understand why you’d be reluctant to post negatively about me there.

“How it turned out”…hmm…basically, “how it turned out” was you randomly snarking on me for asking what you thought was a stupid question, and then your continuing to make personal attacks because, well…you know. However, you probably shouldn’t bring business from the Pit into ATMB; speaking as your sister in Christ, I don’t think that’s going to go very well for you, and I’m not going to address things in the Pit any further lest you get into trouble. After all, you’re a genuine _asset to this message board_ and the Straight Dope, because given the “nature” of your posts you likely generate _oodles_ of page hits for advertisers. And I mean, _gosh_, who doesn’t like to read an ongoing Jeremiad in multiple parts of the crimes the Moderators and Administrators have committed against the Goode Folke o’ the SDMB? I for one am glad - damn glad! - to see you take your brave stand against…what are the code words the snarkers use again? Oh yes, _capricious Moderation_ which casts a _chilling effect._ I do hope I got that right!

But your pet topic aside, I simply thought that since you try to cast yourself as a straight-shootin’ Annie Oakley who’s interested in the facts and who has a strong moral sense of honour, you’d be the first to good-naturedly admit that you too ask stupid questions. Don’t let me down!
