Glorious!

Welcome back.

Thanks.

Besides being fair and lovely, obviously open, generally accountable, rarely consistent, and painfully honest, I can also now say that I've been the unstoppable force that has budged the immovable object of M7. If I'm not mistaken he banned /u/useless_aether (like me with 40k+ karma, not that it's a contest but maybe that's why), then changed his mind, then banned him again. I don't know the actual details because of M7's secrecy. To my knowledge, either I'm the first to get an intentionally temporary ban (rather than a changed mind), or /u/useless_aether was. Maybe I'm deluded but I'd rather think this is progress, even if minor.

A Pyrrhic victory; but you're man enough to own it.

Either way, let's put the site-destabilizing behind us, and continue to build from the scorched remains.

Useless Aether is still around with a different name.

Oh man, I hope so. But some of you guys still think /u/snow is around too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SECVGN4Bsgg

I had one encounter with him one or two months ago.

Good 80s song. I never knew exactly where he was from: maybe Taiwan. He was secretive about that.

I still have that album on vinyl. Snow haunts us worse in Canada.

Chipit is snow. 100%.

Maybe but I don't think so. Snow could barely talk US politics, zhe was all caught up in incels. Meanwhile Chipit can and speaks proficient english.

Snow was pretending.

Even basic English speakers know to use grammar checking software for English forums.

Google Translate at a minimum.

That's internet English 050 (no college credit). Grade school level. ;-)

Snow loved zhe's mechanical keyboards. That's what I keep and eye out for.

Ya, I'm not convinced at all. Better to battle over the obvious words and actions - there's more than enough.

[–]JasonCarswell[S] 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Chipit is /u/silly.

You don't suppose UA could be Amy Chandler ?

I don't either.

Just saying.... ;-)

I have to go back a month or two in my posting records to see what his username is but that might defeat his purpose.

[–]JasonCarswell[S] 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

Mind sharing that with me and/or Larry in a PM?

[–]hennaojichan 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Will do, when I find it. There is some inertia to overcome. Will send it back channel.
