Compiling an anticanon of Atlas Forum posters

[scutosaurus]

NYCMM definitely belongs here. Pretty sure he's still kicking around on Discord as well. Other ones that come to mind from my time are King Lear and that R-CA guy who said Rs would sweep the House in 2018. Pretty sure I remember a particularly bad R-PA getting banned too. And of course there was Texarkana, the reason I still have signatures disabled to this day.

He's also occasionally popped up at Atlas After Dark, from what I've seen. NYCMM was an absolutely bizarre user, with his electoral predictions being "overly optimistic"-if one wants to phrase them as such-for Trump and Republicans, with his strange insinuations about other users, and his constant boasts about his own achievements. And King Lear did nothing but spam the electoral boards with his trollish and nonsensical takes.

Even though, by virtue of you being a landlord, he would literally want you dead?

[AtorBoltox]

How has no one mentioned Greedo

[Senator Incitatus]

This was such a sad way to find out many of my favorite posters are no longer here.

     TNF was alright when I talked to him off of Atlas, which surprised me since he was consistently pure toxicity on the forum. We all act differently in different contexts, but his situation was one of the most extreme I've ever seen.

If I’m going to be put before a firing squad, then I at least want my executioners to be cool

Well isn’t this relatable

At this point, coolface should be part of this list. It has been like three years since they were banned and they have made like 100 socks and the socks blend in.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Great addition. "coolface sock" has entered the forum vernacular probably for the long haul.

I suppose Snowguy makes the list now, yeah?

[Antonio the Sixth]

wait what did he do?

It's a long story.

On the other hand, coolface has done nothing more than make a whole bunch of boring socks. I can speak from firsthand experience that Eharding is a genuine psycho and I assume Einzige and Libertas are as well.

Opedo has to be up there too.

I very strongly object to this inclusion. We should not reward the quantity over quality approach to trolling.

To cut a long story short - he was exposed for pedophilia.

Thank you for showing me people I don't want to interact with

I think PSOL would be up here if he got banned

This thread has too few mentions of Mike Naso (Reaganfan), and ideally also of opedo but as far as I know he still has his share of "defenders".

Someone who wasn't mentioned (he had not been banned yet when this thread started) and whom we might have already forgotten about but could belong here is RP McM, a hideous individual who had convinced himself socialism is when you fantasize about reducing Republican-majority demographics to second-class citizens and committing violence against them and was unfailingly unpleasant in interactions with other posters to a unique extent.

Oh, and I'd add Cora to the list: a proud antisemite who wished for the bombing of a bus of Israeli school children just to send a message. Came back as a sock, called lfromnj a "curry c#nt", and was promptly banned.

And in the intervening two years he came back as a sock again playing the part of a very polemical CCP apologist until he was found out and banned.

I’m surprised that the September 2020 posts didn’t have anything about opedo. We’re his issues known then?

He was banned in 2014 (precisely due to those "issues" as far as I know) so definitely. I assume nobody considered him eligible for "uncontroversially permabanned" status because his ban was, in fact, rather controversial!

Like Capone, they’ll get me on something other than what they want to take me out for.

To a lot of sick people on atlas, he was living what they wanted to be their lives—a cultured, rich white expat having sexual intercourse with vulnerable Asian girls.
