Why the fuck do they always have to advertise on /b/ and why does /b/ always feel the need to invade them with DDoS attacks? I need my fucking AnonTalk because they comfort me with certain things. Now Sysop wants $250/$500 a month for a DDoS Protection software that cost around $499 a month.
I hope it dies; and soon. I'm new to much of this(4mos or so) and after seeing all the spam here, I spent a couple of weeks over there playing. It was pretty low volume and overwhelmingly pedo, but there were a few interesting posts so I started to work it. As always, and especially after seeing all the pedos, I researched what I could. This amounted, principally, to its entry in the ED, so along I go creating posts and replies that get higher than average hits/replies and trying to be a positive influence; lending little credence to the ED article.
The site attempts to present an air of intellectualism, so when someone posted a request to differentiate the words motive and motif, I replied that they should go to dictionary dot com. Sysop replied to me, informing me that I was being a "little troll" Whatever. It's his ball, and I wanted to play so I accepted the criticism and was ready to move on, but since he contacted me I thought I'd ask for a little more background, citing the ED article as the only information I could find. I wish I kept the ensuing correspondence. He absolutely flipped out. As much as I tried to convince him of my honorable intentions he persisted in accusing me of being a troll and suspiciously avoided and never refuted any of the ED accusations. Further, now having had the opportunity to examine his writing style I had a pretty good model for spotting his stuff submitted anonymously in other threads and became convinced that he is, in fact, not only emotionally disturbed, but a pedophile as well.
I was attracted to what I perceived as a dedication to freedom of speech, but in this instance it led me into a den of freaks, led by a freak. I wished him luck and farewell, and fucked off, because it's also clear that he's a malevolent little freak with some computing skills. Dangerous combo, but in the end he'll get what he deserves.
