Am I the only one who's a Moderate Hero about the current mod spat?

International posters union

...and that is?

...and that is?

A Tweed fantasy that the anti-mod crew is organized into some kind of Union, that protects the interests of ordinary posters.  E.g.,

Without the "labor" (posting) of the posters of the Atlas Forum, this forum would not exist. So it only makes sense to organize the "workers" into a union.

How many are in this "union" if I may ask?  Odd union in the sense that there was never an election as to it representing "the posters" with respect to negotiating with management. Maybe it would be better to call it a social club perhaps? Or the red TN avatar club?

How about "silly meme that exactly one poster thinks is a serious thing"?

Jmfcst was an ignorant and obnoxious religious heretic

Actually, he was a "rogue Christian without a church, armed only with a bible"

He was also a poet, a philosopher, and a prophet (no one could match his prediction record).

Bit of an arrogant, tacky white trash social climber though, under it all.

He was obnoxious and an inverterate troll. He wasn't extrordinarily high on my list of worst posters at the tine he was banned; though he deserved it, I didn't care too much then whether he ever came back eventually.

Since then, however, he has made litterally about 30 socks to fu%k with the Forum, and has thus demonstrated he'd never rise above mega-troll status if he did.ppp

Oh, and to the OP, no you're not. Torie and Inks need to dial it back a notch (or two in Inks case), and I think worrying about the Update or encouraging Bushie to discontinue it is silly--or at best needlessly fanning the flames of an otherwise non-existant issue--but otherwise your assessment is correct.

But under what standard does he deserve banning and krazen doesn't?

That's wonderful!  I didn't know that.  It really cheers me a great deal, thanks for sharing!

Do we have a thread where we collect the unintentionally hilarious posts?

First they came for the Hamilton socks, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Hamilton sock.

Then they came for The Jmfcst, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a religious.

Then they came for The Update, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a fan of Bushie.

Then they came for me.
and everybody complained and changed their avatar for a few days in solidarity.

Oh wow.

[dead0man]

nice

Well that's really eerie...
