Not sure which is more pathetic: the spite and bitterness or the my-internet-discussion-forum-is-better-than-your-internet-discussion-forum bullshit.

Well Obsidian, for some reason there are more than a handful of lunatics over there who have a nearly pathological fixation with you. When I posted there as Bandini, the usual ring leaders were convinced I was you, made the bizarre accusation and then it was accepted as gospel by the other sycophantic arse lickers. You certainly occupy a great deal of their head space.
I thought it was quite amusing and after initially informing them they were wrong, I stopped making the effort. Such a lack of real discussion that they can't comprehend there is more than one person out there who enjoys debate, give and take and prefers something different than the semi-literate online cock sucking they engage in. They can't even see the multiple layers of absurdity in accusing some anonymous poster named Bandini of being some other anonymous poster named Watdog in cyberspace. They take themselves far too seriously.
It's indicative of the herd mentality and lack of independent thinkers who post there. Whether a Kool-Aid stand or a huge multinational, the general atmosphere of a place is dictated by the tools in charge.
Anyway, back to the issue at hand. The disingenuous LDMA and his refusal to consider Grasshopper's request. He smugly insists that the only reason he won't delete any posts is because of some high-minded concern for the board's integrity. I was about to post the real reason when he banned me for daring to highlight him as intellectually dishonest (I was also banned as Bandini for no good reason.)
First, an examination of LDMA's character is in order.
The image he projects to others is very important to him. This is not unlike many people but he displays this trait more so than most. He wants everyone to know he was a real player in the rave scene a few years back, dabbled in drug use, was hip to the whole subculture etc. And like many with a strong sense of how others view him, the partner he chooses reflects strongly on him. Who doesn't want an attractive young Thai woman on his arm as he enters the room? For LDMA, having an attractive and slim girlfriend/wife was always part of the equation.
He initially did have a slender tart at his side. But then she discovered the pleasures of ramming fistfuls of pastries down her gullet. And she started to pack on the pounds. The gobs of fat started to appear. The arse grew misshapen. The face was swaddled in (not unpleasant) layers of fat. I've personally always liked women with a bit of extra weight on them. The emaciated wretches with bodies like 14 year-old boys have always turned my guts. But the added pounds grated on LDMA.
What does this have to do with the LDMA/Grasshopper squabble? Those with long memories may recall.
It is important to state that they have never had a great relationship. It's like the two acquaintances who have mutual friends and tolerate each other because it serves no purpose to seek out confrontation. LDMA never liked GH's freewheeling, hedonistic lifestyle. Or more likely, felt a twinge of envy as he became more drawn into domesticity.
A couple of years ago, Grasshopper dropped an insult on ajarn.com that took the long simmering mistrust to a new level. It's important to note that Grasshopper himself was disingenuous when he made the jab and tried to pass it off under the guise of "just havin' a laugh innit."
Grasshopper dropped an ostensible aside that LDMA's wife had started porking up. The reaction from LDMA was swift. There was a minor flame war in which LDMA made his feelings of revulsion and anger clear. Then it was quickly buried. But LDMA never forgave him and that is what is at the root of the current situation on ajarn.
LDMA is getting a great deal of satisfaction in knowing that his refusal to honour GH's request is causing GH a huge amount of stress. All the talk of being one big family of decent individuals who look out for each other, canonize those who pass away if only for the belief that they too will be memorialized when they expire in their seedy hovels is all a load of shit, of course.
But it goes far deeper for LDMA. When Grasshopper made public that most embarrassing of facts (for others it would be laughed off) he crawled inside LDMA's head and settled in for the long haul. Shame, anger and an ongoing reminder that he no longer gains the approval of others when he goes out in public.
It's like the husband with a highly developed sense of guilt who cheats on his wife. He starts to resent the sight of his wife because it produces those feelings of regret and guilt.
In LDMA's case, he actually sees the spectre of Grasshopper's face rising up as he's shagging his wife from behind and that big lard arse starts jiggling and shaking.
The same thing when she disrobes and falls out in sections. There's the outline of Grasshopper again. He can't escape the feelings of shame and anger and the sight of the person who made it public. He watches from across the room as she sits down and the arse spreads out like an industrial strength tub of cottage cheese. The image of Grasshopper's mocking face flashing in his mind once more.
So you see, it's far more than LDMA is letting on. It's personal, vindictive, nasty and psychological.
^I think you might find that is too many words for the average TDer.
We like 'em short and sweet round here and I'm not talking about CMN covered in honey (although I might be thinking about it)

good stuff Sfolia
obi
what do you post as over there?
I think his nik is 'fuckwit'...
Very interesting take. LDMA is also clearly misleading, as he knows full well posters cannot delete or edit posts in locked threads, or posts in threads that have been 'archived" - which, funnily enough is where most of grasshoppers relevent posts are located - and yet LDMA has said that grasshopper can edit what he wants. Liar.
Its an amazement how that board "turns" on its own with great regularity. Som nom nah grasshopper - who took part in his fair share of pack ratting when he was "in" and now suffers for it when he is "out".
Looks like the thread's been nuked over there by the usual suspects.
Not the board..certain postersOriginally Posted by nidhogg
I haven't been to the other channel that much recently. No reason. Probably because I was on there regularly for over 5 years, and a break seems natural.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with the work LDMA has done. I'm not that involved with the usual posters or the natural poster politics of the board.
