Perspective - The Forummer

[drifter]

so far i didnt post on this thread because it is a very heavy and angry one.

But bro drifter is absolutely correct. Everything can be sorted out and settled if all parties are willing to take a step back and relook the sequence of posts and events that brought up this saga.

Forgive and forget and get on with enchanging info, learning from one another and having fun on this forum.

How about it guys?

thats right bro , lets make this forum a fun one .

While I agree he may be pretty obnoxious, he's no mini LKY.

LKYs don't just make accusations. They take away the right of reply via detention without trial, crippling law suits and a compliant press. With LKY, you're forced to listen to his ramblings and forbidden to listen to anyone who disagrees with them.

Besides the legal route, LKY also silences his critics via FEAR. There mere thought of reprisals is enough to make many meek Singaporeans silent.

Scroobal is similar in this regard. He has power given to him by his legion of followers due to his perceived status as an “insider”. His words here are taken as pure gold by them. He can therefore bully his opponents into submission, thus removing their rights to freedom of speech, purely by insults, psychological pressures, offering personal details (as in Perspective’s case), etc. Effectively, you are "forced to listen to his ramblings and forbidden to listen to anyone who disagrees with them".

Alamaking used the legal power given by you to ban Scroobal. But Scroobal does not need that legitimacy. He has power on his own to “ban” others. And that power is just as effective in taking away freedom of speech.

Never heard such rubbish in all my life. Just use the "ignore" feature.

By asking me to use the "ignore" feature, which btw I honestly do not know where, you are effectively agreeing that it is happening.

If you're frightened over some words in an internet forum, I feel sorry for you if you're ever sent to war.

Fortunately, relief from the fear you feel is available by clicking on the nick of the person you're scared of, then click on "view profile" and then "Add to Ignore List".

I feel sorry for people with poor understanding of issues. Such people are doomed even before the war starts.

Not really legion of followers but rather a small band of rather faithful dogs with 1 or 2 of them suspected to be clones.

Notice something yrself? Blublobster is talking to Sam but you keep butting in to curry favours with him. But see how blue ignores you. That's what you are, ever eager to please and ingratiate..like a puppy wanting of love.

You see? you need to be constantly stroked.

like some old timers here, from soc.culture.days, usenet, pre-delphi, delphi, post-delphi, i have stuck to & formed an inexplicable bond to this space in spite of similiar sites e.g. 3in1 & what not.

ooo... good to know i'm a less than half-baked goon whom joined only in the delphi era :p:p:p

 

[kingrant]

I have had a sumptious dinner this evening in Orchard Rd. You must be delusional in yr powers.

As a faithful attack dog of rastafart, wear yr collar dutifully and bark most often. guard his ass as tho it is yr bone.

Kingrant, you stupid dumb dog. you have to be more aggressive in attacking my little bro Scroobal's enemies.

if you don't improve soon, no dinner for you tonight.

oh screwball there's no need to butt in at all. Bluelobster certainly isn't a big fan of you in fact he's describing your shitty behavior right down to a T and i'm correcting him on a few minor details. It's funny you see that as currying favor with him but of course you're just trying your darn best to defuse the situation to something else. Back to the topic. Screwball doesn't have a legion of fans but rather a handful of running dogs with maybe 1 or 2 of them being his clones and the top candidate of his clone would be you.

So pay attention the topic here rather than trying to divert attention to something else.

Kingrant you are sadly rather outnumbered at the moment. Do you need more time to gather your pack?

He'll need some time to create new e-mail accounts sign up new nicks and when they get out of moderation TA DA instant back up!

That's rather sad. Should we go easy on him? His barkings are turning out to be mere whimpers as he struggles for survival of the wits. One can only hope that Troll King scroobal comes along to put his dog out of its misery.

I have been pretty easy on him calling him out for his cheap tatics. What he's going to do now is to retaliate by putting on his thick hide and act like an internet tough guy.

You are the one giving Scroobal more power than he has. He is a nick. He does not write your pay cheque in real life nor can he chase away your customers or clients. He cannot make your wife divorce you or cane your child at school assembly. If an internet moniker can exert psychologically pressure on you, one or more of the following must have occurred:

(a) you got careless and revealed personal bits and pieces of info about your real life identity/career

(b) you got emotionally involved in the forum, to the extent that you allowed personal dignity and self-worth to be associated with your SBF account name

(c) you lost an argument, had your bluff called, and took it personally because of pride/ego

Either way, if an internet anon can fuck you mind, its your fault for letting your mind be fucked.

Priceless gems! Especially the divorce bit, lol!!!!!

 

[scroobal]

Bro, are you for real? From the very first day that I joined this forum, I have been exact same individual - no intention to be popular, have no patience for the intellectually challenged who think they they are smarter than a toothpick, outright obnoxious to those who deserve it and a real arsehole to those who take advantage of the less capable. Nothing has changed.

This is Sammyboy, not the Smithsonian nor is it the local kindergarten.

You sound like I stole your candy and laughed at your unzipped pants as you were playing with the other toddlers at playground. I am certainly not going to apologise to your parents for making you cry. Get a grip man. 90% of the stuff here is pure trivia. Just look at the forum's highest rated member and his postings. And I understand that he's got 1st class honours.

You scare him. That's a major achievement.

I've been trying to scare people on the net for the last decade and a half but never succeeded.
