[Techsoda] "Anandtech forums on trial: The corruption runs deep."

[corwin]

I apologize to everyone for derailing the thread a bit. I allow certain people to get a rise out of me when they don't deserve my attention.

I'm also sorry for saying "fuck" so much.


-SHM

Fuck it, say it when ya gotta...we're (mostly) adults here after all

But yeah, sometimes you gotta just ignore some people, or just not let them get under your skin

And can this thread really be derailed?

can be locked. some might still have other things to say

 

[Murloc]

this thread is cathartic. It's like taking all kinds of juices out of the woodwork.

Doubt they'd do that for the f word, though I'm still slightly shocked it wasn't locked already. I'm still surprised with how seriously so many people take this place, it amuses me to be here but doesn't affect my actual life in the least, can't say anyone here could actually get under my skin.

From Ancient Greek κάθαρσις (katharsis, “cleansing, purification&#8221

cathartic (comparative more cathartic, superlative most cathartic)

1. purgative; inducing catharsis
2. That releases emotional tension, especially after an overwhelming experience

Damn fella, u tryna hit dat?

 

[Soundmanred]

this thread is cathartic. It's like taking all kinds of juices out of the woodwork.

Can you define "cathartic"? There may be some 9th graders who may not know what it means yet.

Edit: Never mind, one of them figured it out.

 

[Greenman]

I call you out as my mortal foe!

LET IT BE KNOWN TO ALL THE GODS IN HEAVEN AND ALL THE WHORES ON BOURBON STREET THAT highland145 IS BANE TO ME AND MY KIN THROUGHOUT THE AGES UNTIL THE END OF DAYS!

Practically speaking what this will entail is that I will waste even more time at work following you around and creating elaborate and overly long counter arguments to stuff you probably didn't care that much about in the first place.

Also I will create witty new racial epithets when referencing your specific racial group, whatever that may be.

For example:

"Hey highland145 why don't you and all the other three musketeers go back and like... um... eat some hamburgers."

Prepare yourself for the onslaught.

If it's not too much to ask, could I be your archenemy as well? I think your going places I'd like to visit.

Holy too much time on your hands batman!

I've never had any problems with forum moderation here, but the guy does provide all the detail and backs up his assertions. Granted, you're only seeing one side of the story, but getting infractions and bans for posting the same thing as others who get no infractions is dumb. Some of the posts he showed by moderators are definitely out of bounds.

I'll give the guy credit for being thorough and backing up his claims with screenshots.

It was the best forum takedown I have ever seen.

 

[dank69]

lol wtf?!

I suspect that was during the short lived ban on any insults in P&N.
