no way sna

deems 110% otm

i really like this beef bc it seems so personal and raw and yet i know nothing about it and [ok i know this is terrible to say but it's true] i don't recognize either of the posters involved. i mean obv i've seen their DNs but i don't really know who they are or what they're about so it's like opening up a new world of festering anger to me.

i'm so glad this was a rateyourmusic list btw, i thought someone was throwing shade on some other human being's list and i was just like, oh god, someone thought those seven records were truly remarkable and yet managed to listen to a hundred records this year, i'm just not going to listen to music from now on

xxp: deric w. haircare is Old Lunch now.

i'm luna

fuuu really. who is three word username??

deric/lunch has never been an aggro poster like TWU -- he posts about mental health issues, comedies, and likes fart jokes

i feel like i owe at least two people an apology

only aggro posts I've seen from Deric/lunch is when nakh was giving him shit in this thread ... and his was a pretty normal reaction

col p otm

this thread is top 3 most read btw

#1 for "no referrer can't tell"!!

I thought twu was called c0lin

im not mentioning the surname incase its his real name

xpost of course it's among the most read, you have to check it every time it's bumped to see if anyone's talking shit on you

ITS not IT'S, I KNOW

but i dont think we should be doing this, esp if its about Martin. Martin was a great guy and we all miss him

Oh wait dammit no no noooooo

I am that I am. I am legion. I don't like fart jokes.

I was able to figure out what has Wade's toast burnt -- I did my "fuck me? No, fuck you!" routine to him a couple-three years ago. I am not proud of the tone of my response to him at the time, but it's not too far over the top (for me, anyway). I will say that the intimation that I in any way did anything to harm the memory of a poster is a cowardly and false accusation -- the poster was someone I liked and respected very much, and as Wade very well knows, I said nothing and will never say anything that in any way was disrespectful to the deceased before or after his death. I will not go into specifics out of respect for the deceased. But I will say this: Wade, may your life be pleasant, and may we never meet.

well, im sorry for implying that it may have been to do with martin.
I think its best if we all just move on now

kewl revive

This thread still sucks and I would still be happy to see it locked and burnt.

ironic post for a thread about threads other people would be happy to see locked and burnt

honestly i agree, i regret what it turned into, much too late i'm afraid. if a mod wants to lock it i wouldn't mind at all. xp

imo bad threads must exist, it reminds us that not all threads must be read or posted in. when you think about clicking on one you can go for a walk in the park or something.

it's not only about hating on other threads, it's about hating on other people. that's why the user that posted most recently is included in the copy and paste. it's supposed to be about sick burns but really it's just pathetic and (more importantly, for ILX) boring. if you're gonna do a sick burn then go to the offending thread and make fun of the person there. i know nothing about zinging but i don't think this is how you do it

xpost

i think it's supposed to be "this poster on that subject" tbh but if matt wants it closed what the hey, let a million insightful and productive conversations bloom

I think of it as going into a bar I used to frequent that had an older dude who liked to pontificate loudly about some political issues. I was into it sometimes, but if something especially dumb was in the news that day and I walked in and saw him I'd kind of hide in the other corner.

I really miss going there and seeing that dude and sometimes talk to friends about how ridiculous he could be.

i have a few pub friends like that, obv i fear sometimes i might be one of them

The coddling of a message board

Wait, wtf is going on itt? I don't like fart jokes. I love fart jokes.

it was meant to be taken lightly and i guess at its best it functioned as a neg crew hangout but if people are getting hateful vibes from it, by all means toss it, i'm tired of being the local asshole.

we're all one of them sometimes, and "no way sna" is the shrine to when we're on our shtick

"if you're gonna do a sick burn then go to the offending thread and make fun of the person there."

Lol man where the fuck you *been*

thing is "ffs stop posting like a broken down spambot" isn't a sick burn per se but

I think you are quite awesome when you are "on one" matt, but I have never thought of you as an asshole or a troll. It is only a message board, nobody gets killed.

the ilm people who create the most bizarre poll and list threads, I'll never quite understand the impulse, but I usually think "shine on, you crazy diamond"

thanks xelab, that means a lot rn.

Seeing as TWU can't actually remember the incident in question (or get my 'name' right) without recourse to looking at a thread that is no longer complete, I would like to correct his typically self-aggrandising version of events.

On an thread about three years ago, someone posted something about a dead person that was not (wholly) accurate, and which made worse a delicate and VERY complicated situation, not that long after this person had died, when the sense of loss was still pretty raw, for me at least. I asked a Mod to delete the post (I believe this is the only time I've ever made such a request in all the time I've been on ILX, fwiw). The post was amended to remove a name, and (I think) a few other posts around it were actually deleted. At this point, TWU barged onto the thread and started to aggressively insist that these 'censored' posts be reinstated. When it was pointed out to him that this was a pretty sensitive matter involving someone who was a friend to many people here, and that possibly this didn't really concern him, he told me to go fuck myself (I did, I admit, tell him to STFU, because I was just so incensed at the way he was trying to turn an act of decency on the part of the mod in question - protecting the memory of someone who, I think, was well liked here and elsewhere - into some bullshit quest for the 'truth' on ILX).

At no point today was I suggesting (and apologies to anyone who thought otherwise) that TWU was speaking ill of the dead directly - but his bombast, insensitivity and blinding self-regard offended me more than anything I've seen on ILX. His intervention only served to throw more attention onto something that could have passed by with much less incident or attention. I want the dead person in question to be remembered for much more than this tiny, unhappy aspect of their life, and I'm annoyed at myself that kicking off in this way means I've actually revived the whole sorry business (I think it was seeing TWU yet again resorting to aggressive insults when in conversation with Fred, an ILXOR who I think brings a lot to this board, that I 'snapped'). But I really will make this my last word on the subject. I plan to ignore TWU from now on, he can call me whatever shit he likes.

A member of the lunatic fringe, as you will

I have nothing to call Ward but a liar. The thread is still on ILX and easy enough to find.

The "aggressive insult" directed toward Frederick B. was "dum-dum".

but i mean

it's nothing personal ... actually, it's less "no way" tbh and more "shrug *sigh*"

no that is me thinking "can't believe this dude keeps posting to this damn thread" only that dude is me
