You were not a Jim empathizer. You did what you did for your own interests, to get a new forum made, so you could be member again minus the obliterated ego.
It was closer to a screaming thought along the lines of "She can't just keep getting away with this!". While I am a big fan of Jim, you're right, I was not a Jim empathizer back then, but rather a Billy one.
It's definitely an ego thing, but it was less about being a member again and more about her no longer being "the problem".
You didn't get demodded as a result of defending Jim, but the SC values. You would've done that for anyone.
That's a good thing though, right?
and Edvard's attempts to trigger me, because he thinks if I feel rejected, I'd post it. This dip shit is so desperate to win against me, he randomly insults me with irrelevancy to the post/topic that he quotes, either it's retarded and/or genuinely thinks he could piss me off with that so I'd post CP again.
You've shown yourself being triggered into responding emotionally towards him with targeted floods, and otherwise mostly upped your spam game from feeling disrespected. You also say that every person who opposes you is "Ed-like", which gives very clear signs and symptoms that this dude rustles your jimmies on the regular.
I get less triggered than you seem to think, I enjoy myself. Having an enemy or two makes it all fun. Edvard is my main anger outlet, mastermind of the ban on sight policy that got others and me banned back then.
Is your thing about Ed just past context, or something more?
Edvard is an interesting person for how he seems to be able to garner respect and attention from people in spite of his lack of intelligence and his foolhardy counter-intuitive behaviors. Even with me no longer taking him as seriously as I once did I find myself still wrapped into his scenarios, like I have to explain everything for him so that "he'll understand", but he is too stubborn these days to listen to anyone but himself.
He can write any scenario to reflect himself as the winner, and I find myself foolish every time I try to appeal to his ideas, but at the same time ignoring him entirely means that others can get sucked into his idiocy... so at this point arguing with Ed mostly serves as the means of showing other people the problems with his arguments.
The number of times I've had to argue with people about his shitty ideas and awful approaches borders on madness, as he's always the flagship of constant bitching over every little thing until it's him at the wheel. You'd think people'd see through him by now, but I'm stuck with assuming that for covert reasons of their own they'd rather have him at the forefront so that they can keep looking publicly detached.
He made a lot of effort to keep me away from S-C. Even when we haven't chatted in a while nowadays, I usually target him when I feel like trolling. He's a good candidate to make fun of overall, possibly the only other person besides Primal (who doesn't have the option to reply to me, you know, you don't hit an enemy who's on the ground, except maybe Edvard).
It's when they're "on the ground" that they say the loudest most primal shit though. It's when their poise has been challenged in ways that mill at it that you really can see who someone is.
Another reason he's a good mock target is because he's the spearhead of some around here: "Strike the shepherd and the sheep will be scattered."
Who does he still herd around these days though? I get that back on S-C, but he's kinda past his prime now.
Edvard is a fit challenge. There's various reasons why him and not somebody else. I don't maliciously troll users I don't have a problem with generally.
As you said earlier, posting CP is an admission of loss, one people will sympathize with you even less over, so you have little to gain beyond some shock reactions (and I'd hope you're after more than that...). How though is flooding not you making yourself look lesser, when you could otherwise just be replying to people in a sensible, "logical" way?
Posting CP would result in a new bandwagon to ban us on sight again. As much as they hate to admit it, the majority of users here FEAR CP. As a result, they will agree to anything to make it stop.
They do, but they also now have more trust in the staff to handle it. These motherfuckers expected it to be handled immediately back when it was still new from it being a fresh and unknown wounding, but now they understand that it'll go down in time and have learned a semblance of patience.
...believe me though I still see quite a bit of CP triggering hitting people where it hurts when it's just discussed as a concept or in relation to one's reputation, and only time seems to be what calms them from those bouts of emotion. They also however like to use the "CP Scandal" as an excuse for other feelings that they're carrying, making said scandal into more of a scapegoat that lets them avoid their problems not with the CP itself, but with the people posting it.
The ones who were the loudest about CP-hate were also the most wounded by the people posting it.
Spamming nothing illegal is fine, nobody but mods give a shit.
I actually have a fairly positive following about flood control going right now, but that might be doing as well as it is because of it being you doing it instead of someone "they like".
