I am not pleased by your stance but I am not unpleased by it as that connotes someone has behaved badly and you surely have not done that. Is apleased a word?Intrepid37 wrote: ↑June 24th, 2023, 3:41 pm
Even masha seems unpleased with my saying that opposing evil online practices with evil online practices is immoral.

I hope it's not a foolish consistency. And I am a bit insulted by your saying I never vote in national
elections. I don't vote in local elections either. Just to correct the record.

I tend to rely on emoticons. I've found that if I don't follow up some harmless little comment with w "wink" emoticon, some take that harmless comment too serious and accuse me of being "passive-aggressive" and start belly aching to get me banned.laffite wrote: ↑June 24th, 2023, 3:08 pm
HaHa, that is so me. I love my own stabs at humour (for you, Dargo). I don't take for granted that others do. I try not to use emotions because the jokes seem funnier if they can be apprehended without them. My heroes in this vein are Russell Baker and the like. Though I may be lame at humour to most, I still have my heroes.

My favorite of his alter-egos was “Sad Panda.” I looked up Intrepid 37 on Google to see if it was also a SP reference but I just got a bunch of listings of boats for sale. :/

I liked SadPanda as well.LostHorizons wrote: ↑June 25th, 2023, 5:22 pmMy favorite of his alter-egos was “Sad Panda.” I looked up Intrepid 37 on Google to see if it was also a SP reference but I just got a bunch of listings of boats for sale. :/
After darkblue was permanently banned (after 11 or 12 years of membership), he managed to temporarily return 4 times. SadPanda was the first return. Another was 37kitties.
Can't remember what the other 2 were.
I sure miss Nipkowdisc. I became very fond of that little pisser. He took insults with beautiful acceptance - never seemed to get angry. Wish he was here.

Re: Shadow Banning
Nipkowdisc is at the other forum. One reason he is there is because one can post political topics and the threads don't get deleted.Intrepid37 wrote: ↑June 25th, 2023, 6:21 pmI liked SadPanda as well.LostHorizons wrote: ↑June 25th, 2023, 5:22 pmMy favorite of his alter-egos was “Sad Panda.” I looked up Intrepid 37 on Google to see if it was also a SP reference but I just got a bunch of listings of boats for sale. :/

His name is there - but I haven't come across a post from him yet.
Mind you, I do very little exploration of that community. It's layout is very different from here.

Re: Shadow Banning
According to Lawrence iirc, it was theorized HIGHWAY was a Darkblue alt account he made to taunt and harass Princess of Tap though I am not sure I personally believe that one. There were a million “lesser accounts” in the off topic section DB (“R- - -“) theoretically could’ve been I suppose.Intrepid37 wrote: ↑June 25th, 2023, 6:21 pmI liked SadPanda as well.LostHorizons wrote: ↑June 25th, 2023, 5:22 pmMy favorite of his alter-egos was “Sad Panda.” I looked up Intrepid 37 on Google to see if it was also a SP reference but I just got a bunch of listings of boats for sale. :/

No. HIGHWAY was not darkblue. I recall that HIGHWAY was a member for a long time before db was kicked out.LostHorizons wrote: ↑June 26th, 2023, 12:33 am According to Lawrence iirc, it was theorized HIGHWAY was a Darkblue alt account he made to taunt and harass Princess of Tap though I am not sure I personally believe that one.

Each the 4 post-darkblue accounts were snitched out. If anyone knows what the 2 I can't remember were, I'd be curious to hear. Starting to get more forgetful these days.

I believe Nipkow posts in "the other place."

I've forgotten the names of the few posters whom I really disliked.
One poster I did like who left a while back was Prince Saliano. He had a great appreciation for horror films. And there were a few posters who frequented the LGBT+ section that I liked, but I've forgotten their names. One used Troy Donahue as his avatar.

The Donahue guy used the screen name “Rayban.” Rayban is a famous sunglasses brand. The relation to Mr. Donahue I am not sure.Swithin wrote: ↑June 26th, 2023, 10:09 pmI believe Nipkow posts in "the other place."
