Ever see a review, and think "Oh yeah. They be shilling."
Just read through a top list of the best Star Wars Zen Pinball tables. The critic seemed to make good points, but I couldn't help notice she managed to put at least one table from all four season packs, plus a few individually released tables, into the top "must haves".
Which means spending buying an entire pack of tables just for that one masterpiece.
In other words, ALL OF THEM.

Did somebody say shilling? Bah humbug.

I mean, Bash isn't AC-tier irredeemable or anything, just a really nasty guy who's never apologised for his behaviour. He's by far been one of the members I've had the nastiest shit from, alongside xyz and Oneness.
you really are a malignant pos. you never stop pecking at people and cry then they hand it back. stop your fixation

Exactly. It's as I said: some on the left have decided that calling anyone of an ethnic minority an 'animal' — regardless of context — is racist, so now if people don't play along, those on the left can smear them as racists by their new definitions.But, by and large, people don't buy that kind of authoritarian shit. Sensible people can discern context, and can decide for themselves whether the context is actually racist or not. It's not like people don't use 'animal' as a racist dog whistle, as dehumanising the 'Other' is a classic bigot move. But not every use of the word is instantly racist.
Sensible people avoid using terms that can be construed as racist, regardless of context. There are non-racist uses of n****r, but no one with any sense uses them. You cannot use racially-charged rhetoric, and expect people who overhear it to "consider the context."

Originally posted by Old Man Whirly!Bash continually harassed me whilst I was having a lockdown-breakdown, despite me repeatedly asking him to leave me alone. He knew what he was doing and pecked at me again and again until I snapped.
Voltron and Voltron lite spamming the thread with bile.
Later on, he kept throwing transphobic slurs and me and Eon (for which he received an official mod warning). I called him out for it and he flipped, and doubled down on being nasty.
You have no ground to stand on defending Bash. It is true that everything in his post against me is absurdly hypocritical, and in fact accurately describes himself. He is one of the most malignant members in KMC history, and cannot stand me mentioning his even more sordid past.
But sure, stand valiantly by the transphobic bully. You have no right to call yourself virtuous, Whirly.

Well said. I can personally attest to these statements as truth.
Originally posted by Old Man Whirly!You're right, bullying and harassment has no place on a forum. I'm glad you stand against Bash and his continual toxic abuse of other members.
None of this has any place on a forum. This is a message board not a soap opera. I wonder why you all get this involved with each other.
I have no idea why Bash is this involved in targeting me, but I hope he stops soon. I have no desire to communicate with him, but if he continues to come at me, I will continue to defend myself.
Originally posted by Old Man Whirly!This is about Bash being toxic, nothing more. If he keeps being toxic, and people like you keep defending him, then I will find it correct to challenge this behaviour.
Why would you share all this? If it happened or not. This seems the wrong place. I'm sorry you are having/had these mental health problems. Do you think a message board like this is the best place for all this?
If you think this kind of thing has no place on a message board, you should tell that to Bash more than anyone — he's the one who came back specifically to lash out at me for a post so far back in the thread he would have had to specifically search for it just to reply to it.
