I’m not buying it, and your cite doesn’t say that.

Best typo of the day.

Funny thing is, \*\*Dio \*\*came back and used “lust” in a later post.

And again,and again, and again, and again.

Desperately twisting, parsing, goalpost moving, trying any and every technique to postpone the inevitable point when you must admit you are wrong.

I think this is now well out of ATMB territory, or at least many of the posts are.

However, the thread is still entangled with several different issues. Rather than move it to some other forum, I am going to close it, and suggest that people interested in pursuing these issues start new threads in appropriate forums with a link to this one.

1. If you want to debate the legal issues, please open a thread in Great Debates.
2. If you want to specifically discuss moderating issues, open a new thread in ATMB.
3. If you want to discuss **Dio’s** posting habits, please open a new thread in the Pit.

If you’re stating that as a “fact,” you’ll need to provide links to the specific posts saying either of those things. Otherwise I strongly encourage you to let this particular line of defense drop.

Just to make it clear, I was the one who closed the thread here, not **twickster.**

Yup, sorry, I was writing that post while **Colibri** was (correctly) closing the thread.

[moderating]  
Even though the thread is closed, I changed the title from “Twickster, you’re full of shit” to “Twickster, you’re full of it” in an attempt to follow our “keep thread titles SFW outside of the Pit” guideline.
