A Cold Winters Night

[JBKlyde]

I freeze for lack of love,
I look to the heavens above,
I fight to be understood,
Apparently there's no-one,
Worth understanding Me,
Apparently I'm on Top,
And your all under my feat,
My cold blue bare feet,
I'd wear shoes but,
Can't afford that either,
So smell the fungus,
Between my toes,
As I stomp your nose,
Into the ground,
The cold hard concrete pavement,
It's where your face belongs,
Was meant to be,
Tossed like shaft into the sea,
Better Learn how to swim,
Cause the hypo thermeia,
Is going to make you squarmia,
I'd apologize for the few lies I did tell,
But you don't deserve it,
Your just not worth it,
So I leave this place cold and hard,
Just like I found it,
I have a boat but why,
Would I want to put you on it,
You'd just be a mutiny at sea,
And I'm just peaceful me,
So die another death,
See if I care,
I've tried everything,
Done everything,
And said everything,
To make you care,
But where are you,
No where to be found,
Getting Beatin into the ground,
By some Fight Club sound,
Don't feel bad I can't win either,
But I have to make a choice between,
Them and you and I say Neither,
Hopefully in spring it'll warm up a bit,
Then maybe you wouldn't have such a fit,
At a Hellen Keller Child with a Hellen Keller Nit,
My eyes see all, and all I see,
Is a bunch of people looking at me,
Like They want to be my God and My God say NO,
So on this last note I must go,
I had hope to find some really good friends,
But all you've proved is the way it ends,
Rockefeller smock a feller he never paid his bills anyway.

On 1/8 JBK was given a week of "time out" for what some perceived as a threat.
But then... only 6 days later... Sexobon called for JBK's release:

These are Sexobon's separate and individual postings directed at JBK since then :

"Satan loves you when you don't take your meds JBKlyde.
Satan's eyes will be watching you in your dreams again. Satan watches over his children."

"I don't know YOUR truth, SATAN."

"When you see Satan's eyes in your dreams, your just looking into the mirror of your mind."

"You've already changed. You were cast out for it once. You're an abomination before God and man…."

"only someone with a twisted demented truly EVIL concept of love would do that..."

"Satan is alive and thriving in you. Satan is the imposter of God for schizophrenic Jesus freaks."

"Without meds you're the Cellar clown."

"And Jesus Dosen't Have Schizophrenic People."

"And Jesus Dosen't Have Schizophrenic People."

"And Jesus Dosen't Have Schizophrenic People."

"And Jesus Dosen't Have Schizophrenic People."

"And Jesus Dosen't Have Schizophrenic People."

Sexobon's usual tactic is to response if someone protests is that he (Sexobon) was misunderstood,
or he was only offering a "challenge" to the person, and sometimes so he (Sexobon) could show or diagnose the person's problem.

The Internet provides the perfect forum for cyberbullies,
individuals whose aim is to gain gratification from the distress
caused by provoking and tormenting others.
There are several different types of adult bullies, and it helps to know how they operate:

1. Narcissistic Adult Bully:
This type of adult bully is self-centered and does not share empathy with others.<snip>

2. Impulsive Adult Bully:
Adult bullies in this category are more spontaneous and plan their bullying out less.<snip>

3. Physical Bully:
While adult bullying rarely turns to physical confrontation, there are, nonetheless, bullies that use physicality<snip>

4. Verbal Adult Bully:
Words can be quite damaging. Adult bullies who use this type of tactic may start rumors about the victim,
or use sarcastic or demeaning language to dominate or humiliate another person.<snip>

5. Secondary Adult Bully:
This is someone who does not initiate the bullying,
but joins in so that he or she does not actually become a victim down the road.<snip>

JBK's open, lucid, and emotional, poem above, is dramatic a call for relief from an verbal adult bully.
I'm hopeful the Dwellar community responds in some way to prevent any more such episodes.

Good thing you're not gay. You can be magnanimous. Sexo instigated, to be sure, but dude is unstable and possibly dangerous. I took Sexo's digging at him as an attempt to expose and illuminate his extremism. Search the phrase "shot in the head"

[Clodfobble]

While I find sexobon's treatment of JB both now and in the past to be repulsive, the fact is sexobon did not convince him that he works for Scotland Yard. That is JB's own personal delusion, and it proves (to me, at least) that he's gone beyond the point where we can help him. Often these diseases go in cycles, and we can hope that JB will cycle back down again at some point in the future, for his own well-being.

You took it for what it was. Others, whose interventions were well intentioned but ineffective (as elsewhere noted by glatt), are just reading into it what they want for their own purposes. I'm results oriented and simply catalyzed the inevitable (also noted by glatt). It would have been inappropriate for the moderators to do that, thus creating a niche for a plain vanilla dwellar experienced in cutting losses to step up and facilitate their ability to prevent further degradation of the community.

If you want to learn the procedure and underlying principles, post your interest in this thread. I'll respond by PM to those whom I believe will appropriately employ and maintain a chain of custody on the information. While I don't generally do other than administrative PMs, there is an occasional exception. I believe the community would benefit from a few others knowing this particular elicitation technique. If you don't hear from me, you're not a candidate and I won't tell you why.

They did: he's gone.

Lamp, this is neither pro not anti Sexobon, but I think in the above JBK was using the collective form of the word "you" on many occasions.
He's been asked to address his posting behaviour and content many times, and more than one Dwellar has expressed that they find his posts offensive, and that they reflect badly on the Cellar.

At present he is unable to understand or accept that his views are considered extreme.
And as LJ says, we have no responsibility to change the Cellar just to keep him here.

Thank goodness we have you looking out for us.

If only we had a self-fellating emoticon...

Your "elicitation technique" is called "goading," and everyone here learned how to do it on the elementary playground. If you'd like, you can post your interest in this thread about our special "discretion technique."

[lumberjim]

LOL. yeah. wow, sexo... you been drinking from tw's cup?

that's a pretty corny post. not your usual M.O. I was waiting for you to tell us to refer to you as "Cold Steel" from now on.

[sexobon]

No takers huh? I am disappoint. Looks like I'll have to find someone else to sell my oceanfront property in Arizona to.

JBKlyde of Scotland Yard would have taken me up on my offer. Perhaps we were a bit hasty ...

[sexobon]

Soon, I'm going to start my first thread ever in the Cellar. I'm considering dedicating it to some other dwellar (e.g. Clodfobble). If you want input into my decision as to whom it should be dedicated, post your interest in this thread. While I don't generally do opening posts, other than as anonymous, there is an occasional exception. I believe the community would benefit from a few others being recommended for this honor. If you aren't notified by me, you weren't a viable candidate and I won't tell you why.
