that's the beauty of him

That's because he's a troll.
He's a troll that I find likeable a lot of the time, but that doesn't alter the fact that he's a troll.

I luff you too
and I appreciate how good you are at stirring people sometimes, except when you successfully manage to stir me!

His trolling is making the site look like a racist website.
If it goes a little further, we could all lose our jobs if it were found out we were associated with it.

It's also hateful and unfunny.

You are utterly utterly losing it my friend!

( Mykeyboy A massive, salty filing cabinet, Mon 4 Jul 2005, 13:43, archived)

I think he has a point.
There are times when this message board looks like a very unpleasant place, and there are a number of views expressed* that I'm not that comfortable about being associated with.

*maybe in jest, but it's not always easy to tell

Even if they are not the views of the poster,
those views are expressed!
That's what words are!
It wouldn't be okay to spraypaint racist remarks on a wall in jest.

Perhaps,
but what you are doing with that comparison is ignoring the context. There is quite clearly a non-serious atmosphere about the place, whereas a public wall is not in a non-serious context.
(s0WmVHAwZgpG, Mon 4 Jul 2005, 13:54, archived)

This is a public website.
All the time there are racist-looking posts on the board we are turning away nice people or, worse, attracting real racists.

Well, then,
don't fucking visit it at work!

b3ta has, for as long as I've been a member at least, and presumably for as long as you've been a member, featured a large quantity of material that would be awful if it were not in this context. Bad taste/sick jokes are all over the bloody place. There are a lot of far worse things posted on the picture board than on /talk.

If you think you would lose your job for visiting b3ta at work, then take some responsibility for your own actions and don't visit it at work.

Not like this it hasn't.

If you dont like it then click ignore
And those views you find offensive wont be displayed, if you dont want to ignore then you have no right to complain
( Mykeyboy A massive, salty filing cabinet, Mon 4 Jul 2005, 13:53, archived)

This is flawed
because I'm worried for the whole site, not just my blood pressure.
edit: and my name still appears on it for everyone else to see.

You, you smug little
18 year old ignorant prick can suck my balls and then fuck off back to wanking over the Kays Catalogue you detestable, supercillious cunt.

Dear Fenris,
is there something wrong with being of a particular age?
(s0WmVHAwZgpG, Mon 4 Jul 2005, 13:39, archived)

No I like you
and my views expressed don't matter as this isn't real life.

Shut up you fucking middle-class, white, male,
ageist cunt.

Damn you
Damn you to hell.

I've got no issue with teenagers, but teenagers that think they know everything* (and manage to look that smug in their photo) are fucking irritating.


*yes, I was one...
( Fenris temporary Lazarus, Mon 4 Jul 2005, 13:45, archived)

Everyone who think they know everything is irritating.
Even worse is if they really do.

It's only words and words don't mean anything because it's
only words and words don't mean anything because etc.

In other news, I purchased that Murakami book that you recommended (LOTS of words) yesterday. I was rather hung over yesterday (and I have a reading age of 10) so it'll probably take me a couple of years to finish!

Hehe, it's cocking great and I hope you like it!

I am admittedly in a bit of a mood and feel like flaming people today... ignore me
