Dang, I meant to say " you have HALF the wit of a dim witted mule!"

[quote=Baller]Thank god for this.  Maybe now that there is moderation, I will stick around.  Who knows, maybe if I really apply myself I can amass over 3700 posts.  One can only dream.[/quote]

Capital G.   FYI: "god" isn't slang.

GOD

A coincidence, I’m sure, that “echo/goforbroke” just happens to post just a few minutes after whomit makes his dramatic stand…right?

So you “smoked me out” whomit?  Talk about delusions of grandeur.  You sound like you think you’re the grand puppet master!

So you think you were banned because you tried to defuse a brawl that I started?  That’s an interesting perspective.  From what I recall you were a very active participant in the dispute, not a soothing influence.

Jun 8, 2007 9:06 pm

Dang somemore! I should have said... "You have half the wit of a dim witted nit!"

D'arrrgh.

And since I'm home now (after a gruelling commute!) I'll also remind you that  my "Banned" record over the several years posting was  once because of Yamamoto and his hive attack (I was reinstated and appologized to by that moderator. I was cut off once because I posted as __God__ on an Abortion Rights board (Apparently someone had just been banned who used the handle _God_ and the crowd thought I was him, the banning had nothing to do with me in particular, I only got one post and it basically said "Hi! I agree with the pro rightsers." And the one here.

Other than that I have been lauded numerous times for my insightful posts. By lauded I mean included in the "highlights reel" that the site admin would put up to attract new posters (back when the whole game was number of "eyeballs" that translated into X times = market valuation) Making it several times to the New York Times Home page in fact (This was when there were literally thousands of active posters on the NYT site and many thousands of posting over three or four dozen active topic threads.)

So I'd say, my bona fides are all in order there, Joedabrkr.

You, on the other hand...

Jun 8, 2007 9:41 pm

Your “bona fides”?  Whomit this is an industry-centric bulletin board, not a literary club.  If they liked you so much at the NY times, why didn’t you stay there?

As far as I’ve observed-and I am happy to hear the opinions of others-the only folks on this board who have been impressed with your penchant for quirky prose are

1.  YOU, and
2.  Sexylady/goforbroke/4luvofmoney/madison/parachute.

Interesting, eh?

Yamamoto and his hive attack?  Sounds like something out of those cheesy Japanese sci-fi serials from the 60’s and 70’s.  Think “Ultraman”.

I think you don’t like me because I dared point out that your posts are difficult to read.  Whatever.  I may think you’re an arrogant quirky pain in the behind but I harbor no ill will towards you.  I don’t particularly appreciate you’re nominating me to be number one with a bullet on the ‘to be banned’ list, but if that makes you happy, great.  I have more important things to handle than your petty bull poop.

Jun 8, 2007 9:49 pm

Folks-I submit to you that here is what whomit was probably doing in the 30 minutes between his two most recent posts…consider the possibility he was using his “echo” persona to start another new thread…look at the timestamps and the similarities in writing styles.

"I think you don't like me because I dared point out that your posts are difficult to read."

I don't spend nearly enough time on you to classify you as someone I "like" or "don't like".

You're an idiot that's all.

You are at the heart of the vast vast majority of the sorts of fights that bring the level of discourse down and this forum would be far better off if you were no longer part of it.

You are not in the least unique, I have seen people like you since I entered Kindergarten. You are a weenie and your wienie stench attracts predators, weak, lazy predators that are too stupid to go find a good meal, so they settle for you. It's like we're a heard of gazelles and we always have a weakling to attract every lameassed lion on the Serengeti. We just want to munch on the grass and mull the events of the day, but every ten minutes we all have to run because some hyena is loose among the heard. If you had a half a brain you'd keep your head down and the hyenas would pass, but NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOO... Joe's got to show off his bowling ball wit!

Time and time again I've seen MO rons like you, using your blunt force troglodyte mental skills, turn itinerant Neanderthals into full fledged trolls.

"Your "bona fides"? Whomit this is an industry-centric bulletin board, not a literary club. If they liked you so much at the NY times, why didn't you stay there?"

There you go again, trying to dumb down the boards. What is wrong with being smarter than Joedabrkr? It's almost impossible not to be, afterall, you can't even beat Sexcetera.

Why am I not at the NYT? Because they closed down the forums at the NYT. Why? Because pissants like you kept turning the site into a vomitorium and the NYT decided it wasn't befitting their image to be associated with people who do the things you do. Further, the paradigm changed and the object was to make your website a profit center, and when they were not able to do that and when they decided that they would rather go with a "Reader Comment" format they found the forums challenged that participation and thus had to be shut down. Just like the administrator should shut you and people like you down.

I agree, I don't have "friends" here. People are not broadly enamored of my writing style, but that's in no small part due to the fact that most people see it closest up while that writing style is beating the snot out of them in a fair fight of ideas.

I just love the way weaklings like you fall back on "I have friends here and you don't!" "Let's take a poll and see who people agree with!" "Waaa waaa waaa I can't stand on my own two feet so I'm going call on all my friends to tell me I'm right! snivel snivel snort snort!"

Wipe your nose little boy.

Jun 8, 2007 11:42 pm

Joe - Please don't kill yourself, we need people like you in the world.

Just delete your account here and go away.

That's right-it's because of those "other people" that the NYT forums were shut down...the 'lower life forms'.  Not the uber-intelligenstia blowhards such as yourself.  Just like it was someone else's fault when you were banned here, and one of your other episodes of being banned was the fault of Captain Yamamoto and the hive squad from plant Neutron-4.  That one was so bad that the moderator apologized! Amazing!

Actually I don't think I played that card.  I merely pointed out that the only person other than yourself who seems to like your writing style and posts is a troll-a troll that could very well be you.  YOU are the one who opened that door.

yep, I'd say so!

 People are not broadly enamored of my writing style, Yes, they are, too, Dude!

I agree with parachute/goforbroke/FreedomAdvocate, too: kool writing style, dude!  In fact, everyone here knows you have a kool writing style: even BH is afraid to spit his venom at whomit.  Unless you are joedabrkr!!! ahaaaaaa! ... then it brings talking to yourself to an entirely new level!

nope, joedabrkr just needs to raise his standards but shouldn't be banned.

This discourse between these two (or the one?) was pretty entertaining, though.  joedabrkr is a better sparring partner than mikebutthole222, I'll give him that.  Who rang Ferris Bueller's chime: a likely BH reincarnation.  There is an aliance of regulars who make it a habit to attack posters who don't meet their little club criteria.

whomit: funny, clever stuff whoever you are.

Jun 9, 2007 4:21 pm

Joe,

It doesn't raise or lower the levle of discussion when some one calls YOU (in particular) an idiot. It's just a statement of fact. That you could pull those two posts and think that there is similarity in writing style shows an intellect that is a fully developed dull normal.

Regardless, the issue is still whether you are a net positive or  a net negative influence on the overall level of discourse on these boards.

You yourself have repeatedly said that you should "stop feeding the trolls" what you don't seem to want to comprehend is that you ARE a troll.

Jun 9, 2007 6:06 pm

Wow, I have hope. I have not been to this forum in probably six months because of how embarrassed I was by the comments made by supposed colleagues of mine in the industry, as well as the the fanatical obsession with trashing Edward Jones. Which led me to believe that these forums were populated by disgruntled ex-Ed Jones reps. I hope that Reg Rep will moderated these more and ban unprofessional posts, but they really shouldn’t have to. Here’s to the return of civility and professionalism!

[/quote]

It's so funny you should say that Whomit, because when I get caught up in these petty debates with you I start to feel like I AM feeding the troll.

Certainly your stylized writings(which remind me of a junior high student trying to "find themselves" in a creative writing workshop) have improved the quality of the interactions on this board.  Especially when you're "beating the snot" out of someone in an argument.  Thanks for that!  I honestly don't know how we got along before you arrived here.  Thank goodness you survived Yamamoto's hive attack and all those other silly bannings so you could grace us with your wit and massive intellect.

I find it ironic that you accuse me of lowering the level of discourse considering some of the epic battles you have had with indyone and mikebutler, among others.  I distinctly recall you hurling a few ad hominem remarks during those.

But you saved "idiot" for me, which is nice.  It makes me feel like we share some sort of special bond.  I really appreciate your pointing out to me that my heretofore unrealized dullness is actually a FACT and not just your opinion.  First order of business Monday morning will be to contact the folks at MENSA and let them know I'm canceling my membership because it was obviously obtained under false pretense.

Say whatever you like, I think it's very interesting that you are obviously completely immersed in internet bulletin board culture and LOVE to have attention from many board members, and these trolls arrived around the same time you did.  I'm sure it's all just an odd coincidence.

It was very nice of you to write your post in such plain English so a simpleton like me could read it and easily comprehend how stoopid I am.  I am humbled in the presence of your massive intellect.

I will concede to you that in the past I have become caught up in debates and disagreements and discussions that were not positive contributions to the board nor even entertaining  This has happened a little more often than I like, and I am determined to change it in the future.  This thread has, in fact, turned into one of those debates, IMHO.  You sent your cute little note to the moderator and I picked up the gauntlet...and am kicking myself for it.  There is no benefit to continuing the discussion, because you consider it a FACT that I am an idiot, and I am convinced that you are an arrogant, insecure, jerk who feels the need to constantly prove himself to others. I don't expect to change my opinion any time soon.  Any further comment by me on this thread is just not productive. So, I'm done with this and you can go back to your contrived prose because you don't have to dumb it down for me any longer.
Jun 10, 2007 2:00 pm

"I find it ironic that you accuse me of lowering the level of discourse considering some of the epic battles you have had with indyone and mikebutler, among others."

I don't doubt that you find it ironic, because you don't understand the meaning of the word ironic to start off with. Further you have no discernable conceptualization of "level of discourse" against which to compare such that there might be true irony. When you equate two people arguing over ideas and concepts within the confines of a a forum file distinctly designed for that conflict; versus your juvenile vomiturations and unfounded accusationsacross practically every thread in every file in every forum on these boards, you demonstrate the factual nature of my statement above.!

You're not the plague, you're not the flea that carries the plague, you're the rat that carries the flea that carries the plague. The administrator ought to recognise this and do for what all  code enforcement does for all civilized societies and exterminate with prejudice!

As to the intellect thing, Joe, you are the one who constatnly refers to me and "my so called towering intellect" and then you are the one who says that I'm trying to prove it. I do not refer to my intellect. Secondly, to paraphrase, "Idiocy is as idiocy does" it is idiotic to make a connection between Sexetera and myself. It is massively unlikely that we would be the same person. What evidence do you have? We don't show up in the same room at the same time? That's because I avoid rooms where both you and she deposit your filth. I don't want to add to the problem.

Your self proving "logic" is without merit too. "Look you desire attention this person desires attention and so proves that you are the same person."  See how ridiculous that sounds? It's idiotic.

What else is idiotic is the way you denigrate things that you don't understand. Go look up what a "hive attack" is on the internet (it's not tremendously unlike the what happens here when someone posts and unpopular topic except there are much more highly developed strains of it.) I didn't make up the term, I just used it in its correct context.* What makes it particularly pathetic in your case is the way you latch onto a new tidbit of information. An example of this was when Babs explained what a "sock Puppet" is It was like you just discovered what else your wee wee could do! everybody and everything was "sock puppet" for about two weeks with you. 

" I honestly don't know how we got along before you arrived here." 

From what I've read here Joe, and, given the fact that the day I arrived here (twice no less, late last yoear and back in 2004) I was immediately acused of being some other guy who had just been banned or run off by the Registered Rep possie, I'd have to say that things here were just about the same before and after my appearance.

*  The geeks of the net were too D&D and so they related back to fantasy when they came up with terms like "Troll"  and "Hive" I had no control over it. But let me just say this about "Troll" a troll, mythologically speaking, is a creature that lives under a bridge and menaces all who attempt to pass over it. A troll is satationary and protects "his" area. Trolls on't go from bridge to bridge. By this conceptualization, it's ridiculous to identify Sexetera as a troll but very apropos to identify you as one. Sexetera could/should be classified as a pest, as a Nanna Nanna Foo Foo (in that there really is nothing that you can do to get her to go away other than ignore her) but she's relatively harmless; and don't go on about the newbies, "What about the children!?!?" If the noobs can't tell, it's only a matter of time before they blow up clients anyway, so the faster they fall the better.
