People.

None of them have been over here in awhile. Quit posting (or lurking) over there, and the problem will be solved.

What bothers me is that I was willing to give them the benefit of the doubt and try to make peace with them when it seems that all along they just wanted to stir people up.

I guess they can put what's happened here down to a successful troll then.

What the hell? When I left two days ago, everyone was getting along fine.

Now we're all assholes again?

Especially after countless complaints by foam and cain (and, I think, others) that it's unfair how Cellar users treat them as collective PD.

That wasn't a bombing.

We can get along fine Roger. I'm just really not that interested in being a member at PD anymore. I made an error of judgement in joining. That's all. I'll stick to teh cellar for my interwebs forums for now.

If you're referring to gothpoetry.com, it was attacked repeatedly because a poster at PD ("Poib") posted a poem there, ages back. It was edited by a mod for no apparent reason, in a manner that made Poib look like a racist. Poib complained, so another mod spread his personal information around the board, inviting board members to track him down and harrass him. No explaination was ever given.

That was years ago. We've been fucking with them ever since.

Your opinion has been noted, and given all the consideration that it is due.

[classicman]

As if your acceptance, approval or consideration means anything at all to me - NOT.

If all you looked at was Apple Talk and Operation Mindfuck, then you haven't really seen the board. It would be like judging The Cellar based solely on the political forum. Take a look at "Or Kill Me" and/or "Think For Yourself, Schmuck" before giving up on it.

Granted, we are jackasses, there's no denying that...but there's also some pretty good stuff in there alongside the jackassery.
