In a strange and almost twisted way, kinda know what you mean.
I miss those times when Kale was calling him a paedophile all the time.

I sure as hell don't miss WBL calling me a pedophile. Jerk.
I'm sorry to hear about that, but I had no idea that he'd called you one. At the time the "argument" in which the accusations were made by Kale and defended by VF came across as something pathetic to me, and got to the point where I couldn't take it seriously anymore. I thought I might make some reference to that here in response to a quote as the thread seemed to have gotten off topic anyway.
When I first joined AF I took the forum too seriously; apparently it seems now that I'm not taking it seriously enough. Unfortunately personal insults hurled at me sail over my head these days; as a result, I sometimes fail to see how certain insults (or mentions of them) can upset others. Ultimately, I wish this wasn't the case, but that's what happens when you've spent most of your life been put down, bullied and insulted for expressing any modicum of independent thought; you either break down completely, or become indifferent and adopt insensitivity as a defence mechanism.
Also, not to play the sympathy card, but while I am truly sorry to have upset you, I'd like to also point out that I myself have been on the receiving end of paedophilia, as have 2 of my closest relatives. That is why when I recall stupid arguments exchanged between the likes of Kale and VF (as in the good old days) I automatically see the funny side of them (twisted as that may sound). The alternative is to feel compelled to post something more hateful that I might later come to regret.
Before I ban a range of IPs I check a few things. Were there any other forum members on these ranges? Did we have other viewers coming in from them? Our logs indicated no. So range ban it is.Quote:
A system that can potentially ban an entire family within a household from a forum when only one member was responsible for abusing it? Forgive me, but that doesn't give me any sense that the Internet has evolved at all.
Edit: oh, and it has been a week at 11AM EST today.
Ehhh I saw it coming a mile away. I wasn't around when he went completely crazy, but I knew he was going to get banned again after the first time. You can't throw hissy fits on the internet and act like a child, and not expect to get resistance. Duh. Haha xD When he first showed up, he seemed to be alright, but whatever happened to make him completely go insane I don't know.
Keep Posting! I wish to have a second thread with over 100 posts! AAARRRRGGGHHHH!!
:)
Oh do you now? Today on AF, will Kaleohano be happy?
Today on AF, I moderated some stuff.
And made the 85th post in this thread.
Get to the chopper! (87)
A wild crazy sighting counter is at 0.
I'd lol if this thread gets locked at 99 replies. Would be such a troll.
I could tell him, but I assume if he hasn't come back already he wont care and wont come back at all. Probably a good thing.
I should close this thread right now...
And seriously. Forget about WBL. If he comes back he comes back. But baiting him to come back just to bait him to get in trouble is immature.
