Not likely.

If you need to search it for any reason, it is not a period. It is the symbol next to the 1 and above tab on a standard keyboard. > ` < That thing.
I am pretty sure there will not be much more of them.

It doesn't matter what symbol you used to replace your post if someone wants to locate them. No, we don't have anything in common. I don't care what you think. And you have no style.

It’s easy to c/p this as often as needed. : D

RI, let’s test Cultellus’s solution:

“Cultellus, stop shitposting and trolling.”

According to Cultellus, we can control the behavior of other posters, so my request here will instantly stop Cultellus from posting.

Unless, of course, this sort of thing really doesn’t work as claimed, and Cultellus is revealed to just be using this as an excuse to shitpost and troll, more so than anyone ever has.

; )

I do not recall asking for less shitposting. I may have asked for more. That seems like something that drumdude or someone elso requested.

I don’t care if you asked for more or less shitposting. Your theory is that my demand to you should work, and that you’ll need to follow my instructions, for the good and peace of the board. You claim that a request from another board participant will do that. So, here’s the request:

“Cultellus, stop shitposting and trolling.”

Now, what you do from here on out will either prove that your ‘demands’ are honest, or not.

I've just asked for equal application. Repeatedly. Right here in this thread. Reporting rules violations is confidential. Only Shades and the mods will know when I post a report, so there's nothing hard or unpopular about it. You have no idea of what I would report, even though I've told you several times what my approach is on reporting violations.

You have exactly zero evidence that I favor giving Doc Cam preferential treatment under the rules, yet you have maliciously and falsely claimed that I do. That's called being full of crap. Yeah, it's uncomfortable when someone rubs your nose in the crap you've been making up. Tough.

I think I'm done here. Stay or go. Clean up your act or not. I don't care cuz I'm not gonna see your posts.

Oh my damned god and holy damned crap. What kind of a meltdown was that, Res?

Reporting rules violations is confidential? Exactly. You are that guy, and I am not that guy. What is not clear about this? You would drive past a dude being a bully to a woman and just keep on rolling. Maybe you would call and make an anonymous notification to police, but probably not. You might even ask yourself what the woman may have done to deserve it. Perhaps a good Harvard Lawyer would be able to see both sides and not look for black and white fault. Maybe you could file a report.

I would stop and smash the “F” out of the dude and put a stop to the harassment.

You think I am a coward for asking Shades to make a decision for me. I have NEVER asked Shades to make a decision for me, and frankly, your suggestion that I have is so far beyond the pale it may have buried your arguments you may have been championing here. I have been brief, succinct, and respectful to Shades. I have asked for nothing. I have promoted nothing. I have offered to respect anything he wanted, as if it was his house. And yet, you and the pissboys are on some rant about me deferring to Shades when in fact I was the one being polite, respectful and asking for nothing. I made it clear that I would cooperate. That is it.

I am willing to hit Doc Cam head on for this abusive, bullying, bigoted stampeding on Shades' board. You and the pissboys dismiss abuse as art and just Cam being Cam, silly boy. You want Shades to make a committee to fix it, while you do not one damned goddamn thing other than act like pussies and hope and hope and hope and hope and ask for someone to take control of this situation so you can all have clean hands.

B.S., pussies and pissboys. B.S.. You act like asking you to stand for something is offensive or unclear. Put your lawyer douchebag act aside and just be a man, Res. Just be a man. Stop trying to create a judiciary here in a goddamn forum, or worse, have someone else do it, so you can have clean hands and not have any damned taint from the bigotry and homosexism that you appreciate.

I do not believe the world is black and white or that arguments are starkly dark or light, left or right, good or bad. I believe that men and women can act. They should. If something is wrong, do something about it. In this case, asking Shades to make it better while all y'all do nothing or make it worse is ridiculous.

Res, I am not rubbing your nose in crap. I am doing much more than that.

This board has made a lot of progress in a few weeks. This is good.

If you read through some of the other threads on the forum we have made a lot of progress. Civility is right around the corner, I can feel it! Good job to everyone.

I certainly have no problem with that. I have never liked uncivility or name calling. But I have no problem honestly pointing out stupidity, irrationality, dishonesty or bovine excrement when I perceive it.

I agree! All I've ever asked for is a place to post without personal insults. I like what I've seen in the past few days.

You were literally called a moron on the Terrestrial forum yesterday.

That was a typo! He meant to type Mormon.

You can delete your posts, but not your reputation for trolling.

That is not trolling. He is a pissboy and he should shut up and “F” off. If you are unfamiliar with either the pissboy scene or the metaphor, that is unfortunate. Please make no mistake here, pancake is the pissboy for your King Cam.

I will delete all my posts. All of them. Get over it.

I am not trolling.

Calling trolling ‘not trolling’ doesn’t make it so. And personal attacks break the rules, which you are so adamant should be followed. That’s how people can tell you’re trolling. There’s no integrity in your posting, just disruption and an attempt to incite.

Sure, delete your posts. Your reputation remains.

That’s nowhere near the truth of how AM has posted since he got here.

[canpakes]

Your reputation remains.

Cultellus definitely is infatuated with ‘pissboys’. I suspect most folks at work avoid casual chatting with Culty.

Their lack of sleep from having to jump up and answer posts so early likely isn’t helping, either.

ETA: Wait, just really noticed this:

Unfortunate for who?

I think that Cultellus let slip a bit too much information about their personal life with that line. : D
