The "accuser" was a newspaper article. You developed quite a creative bit of apologetic spin out of nothing. He wanted to live a "Christ centered life" so of course he wanted to repent and wash out the tattoo. That is the same thing you are doing here. Creating a bit of apologetic spin out of nothing. You used "YOU LOT" even though SGW produced erotica when he was active LDS, as well. Yeah, that makes sense.

But of course you're victorious.

Wade, could you remind me of the specific argument(s) that Will was forwarding that critics were so frightened of? I can't seem to recall it/them.


As I recall, Will refused to answer any direct questions about his work in progress at all.

Let's see...we have Beastie claiming that other peoole are leaving out the most important part, distorting, and declaring victory no matter what, and we also have Kevin Graham accusing people of spinning things. Am I alone in finding this remarkably hypocritical?

Thanks, -Wade Englund-

Terrifying.

I guess Wade wins.

Quite so. Anyone and everyone on this board who has expressed things that may be interpreted as vulgarities or sexual innuendos or harassment, have all invariably had countless threads devoted to condemning their actions and in which the members of the board pile on in their condemnations. Who would dare pretend things have occurred any differently than this?

And, there is certainly no irony in a person operating online under the guise of a buffalo, lecturing others about pretending.

What a joke.

Thanks, -Wade Englund-


Remember Derrick the anti-Mormon? How did people react to his misogyny? Do you remember?

Don't hand Wade any more ammunition. He's already tearing us apart here.

Could you remind me where I said that the critics were frightened off by specific arguments forwarded by Will? I don't recall ever saying that.

Thanks, -Wade Englund-

So I take it you find Pahoran's argument convincing.

Even though SGW produced erotic while an active member of the church, emphasizing that (supposedly) he wrote the piece in question while one of YOU LOT was somehow an interesting or pertinent comment to make.

Of course you find that persuasive.

I tell you what is freaky: SGW started a thread to condemn Will's comments, and here are Wade and whyme lamenting Will's victimization. What is the world coming to?
