Just do whatever you want. I've already proven that you don't actually read the things I say, so why should I waste my time trying to placeate you?

James.  Come one, man.  Pundit just got done flying off the handle at the sight of someone necro-ing an old thread with Nox's name in the title.  Given everything we all know of Pundit's tendency to flip the fuck out, starting a new thread about Nox at this time looks like trying to incite Pundit to freak out and close another thread.  Can you see how I might reach that conclusion, especially given the history of you two sparring in the past?  From where I'm sitting this thread in the current context looks like pissing in the soup.  Maybe you didn't mean the yellow stuff to land in the pot, but what was your dick doing out in the kitchen anyway?

You see what I'm saying, man?

Not to defend James here - because I honestly have no idea what his motives are (and he's posted shit specifically to piss off Pundit in the past) - but Pundit never does anything but fly off the handle about something or other.  Are we seriously expected to worry about how Pundit is going to react to what we post?

What's worse is that we can't put him on ignore either.  But he also tends to make any problem worse.  This thread for instance, if he hadn't added anything it would probably never have even got a reply.

And yet people wonder why I'm so down on his presence here, and why I get concerned when he starts interrogating people like he's the fucking Inquisition.

As has been said, sending him a PM is a good bet, or else posting to a thread he started - some people set themselves to get email notifications on those.

On SJGames, Dominus Nox also called himself Lexx, Nomad and JCD.

There is a "Dominus Nox" on rpg.net, but his sig says something like "there's a permabanned guy by the same name, I ain't him."

Stupid fucking rpg.net outtage. I wanted to do this clever thing where I take "Tell me why I shouldn't ban you" and Darren's "I'm in a bad mood I'll do what I want" reply in his controversial D&D thread, then make jokes about own goals and losing the cup to a hated rival team.

But noooooo, I'm reduced to making this fucking meta-post about how much this site is becoming exactly what the tBP mods said it would; a tiny little rpg.net with fouler language and a less clear-cut set of bannable offenses.

Man, having a less clear-cut set of bannable offenses than rpg.net is quite a feat.  That takes some dedication.

This is not RPGnet. We don't need to fear the mods here. That fact alone changes everything.

And honestly, are we forgetting the "Dark Times"? Remember when Nox had access to "Off Topic Discussion", and it was the "Dominus Nox Show"? So soon we forget.  Furthermore, James is deliberately and publicly invoking Nox's name on the subforum Nox was banished from. That's asking for trouble.

First, let me make the joke regarding "You're right. Just the one admin".

Now that that's out of the way? You're clearly not paying enough attention. The only thing Pundit threatens banning for appears to be a pattern of disruption to the site. Unfortunately, disagreeing with him is disruption. Oh, he'll first take some time to tell you how magnanimous and forgiving he is, like all tyrants before the ax falls, for not banning you right off for calling into question his absurd shit. But do it a few times, or at least enough times to get the hamster in his head running on that little Paranoia Wheel, and your entire history on the site has been an attempt to disrupt and harass it because you work for the Swine like some kind of fucking MKULTRA killer, programmed to compulsively interfere and vex whenever "real roleplayers", I mean "regular roleplayers", get together.

You mean back when the poster who was least conducive to real conversation fit into an ignore list, and primarily kept his shit to Off-Topic, rather than breaking into rational conversations to scream "FUCK! SWINE! FUCK!! I SO SMART AND GOOD! FORGE BAD!!! RRRRAAAR! FUCK!!"?

Yes, but clearly with a different level of fondness. You're still living there, man, so it looks pretty awful...I've moved past it and seen how shitty the future is.

Well, CA just said almost everything I could possible say on the subject of this site, it's moderation, and Pundit's influence here.

The main reason I'm still here, is that by and large everyone else I don't really mind so much, even the ones I've gotten cross with, and hey, at least there I can ignore the ones I don't like.

I will say though, that whatever one can say about Pundit's paranoid tyrant act, Jrients is nothing but level-headed in everything, and I respect the hell out of the guy.

Quote from: jrientsI'd really, really like to give you the benefit of the doubt here.  I'd really like to assume you weren't causing trouble on purpose.  But this just looks bad, this thing where you start a new thread invoking the name of the single most disruptive poster in the history of the board.  

Yeah. I didn't assume lily white motives myself, either.

Given that in our 9+ months of existence we've had a grand total of....


wait for it....


drum roll please....

0.. that's right ZERO bans; I would say you're grotesquely exaggerating the level of oppression here.  
I've always said I would almost certainly end up having to ban someone, and some of the mods feel that James would be a good choice since he seems mentally incapable of ever stopping his little crusade to show everyone how big his penis is by "defying" me.  We're discussing it backstage, and believe it or not, I'm the one who's STILL, after all this, after the shit I've had to take from him, after the way other shitheads like J Arcane have tried to use his actions to their advantage, etc etc. I'm STILL the one who's arguing against banning him.

So if you really think this place is just "RPG.net with less clear ban rules" GO FUCK YOURSELF, then get a fucking clue you ignorant twat, and FUCK YOURSELF WITH THAT TOO.

You're like a guy who can't stop talking about how much he hates the Rolling Stones, how much of a shithead Mick Jagger is, how evil he is, how much you despise him... and yet you go to all of the concerts, all of them, and claim that you're really just here for the "atmosphere".  :rolleyes:

Its hilarious, but a bit worrying to me. I'm scared that late at night, you're spending all your time bare-chested in front of the mirror with your face covered in kitten blood, a pipe in your mouth, hitting yourself with a copy of the D&D PHB repeating over and over again "I am the pundit! I'm the pundit! he's not the pundit I'm the Pundit!!"

I mean really, either your only goal here is to destroy what this place stands for, or you are seriously mentally fucked up in a really scary way.

Oh, please.  You're seriously suggesting some of us need to get a clue?  Take the plank out of your own eye first, shithead.  You realize you just called yourself the rockstar of this board, and the rest of us your legions of screaming fans?  If you want an audience, go back to Xanga.  If you're posting here, try to realize it's not the Pundit show anymore.
