*richard attenborough voice* a fascinating race occurring in the ilx wild. the competitors: those doubling down on questionably motivated moralism, those simply expressing honest opinions and those desperate to win the pissing contest of who's most zingtastic/above-it-all. *long pause* the slaughter will be beyond our imagining.

when it impacts IRL, it's not too surprising.

i'd like to take some credit for returning to ilx but alas i cannot. just the right place at the right time.
― Cory Sklar, Wednesday, 22 July 2015 20:29 (eight years ago) link
I let you back in by accident because - as you may have seen on other threads today - I am a useless moderator who causes problems. Welcome back though. You've been very nice since returning, afaik.

was Momus even banned? I thought he just stopped posting. (I realise that he burned his bridges pretty thoroughly after he stopped posting here)

find it hard to imagine how Momus and 2015 ilx could occupy the same space, I feel like something would have to give?

momus wasn't banned. he left before registration and i think before anyone was genuinely banned (or temp banned). becky lucas was the first time i can remember mod consensus that 'action is necessary' but they didn't ban her (they did do some cool thing where there was a message that said 'don't engage w/ becky lucas' that showed up for everybody but b3cky luc4s). they did some clever things w/ c4lum also, like he would be starting threads and they would only show up for him. he did change his username like crazy so maybe he was quasi-banned. pre-registration it was very difficult to ban someone. i'm trying to remember if strongo banned anyone or if he just deleted threads.

huh, so used search function and it looks like momus basically stops posting really in autumn 2006, november really but it looks like september 2006 is the last time he posted "like normal". there wasn't any heated discussion or critical moment. he mentions starting a new blog and starting threads there instead of here because less ppl disagree w/ him there. he pops up very sporadically after that. as far as i can tell this is his last post - list junk food dressed up for yuppies who are too smart for junk food
― balls, Thursday, 23 July 2015 00:23 (eight years ago) link
pretty sure that made the list of famous last posts
― sarahell, Thursday, 23 July 2015 00:25 (eight years ago) link
If his final words were "Does anyone know where to get cheese in Williamsburg?" then he again fails to disappoint.

momus went to livejournal for some time and pontificated dully over there. Dunno about nowdays.

if momus had continued he'd have been long banned by now anyway

momus surfaced in the marie calloway fucking a famous writer story and it was weird? because i think of him as a grizzled old british man that posted on ilx much the same way as i think of "martin skidmore" or "mark sinker."
