Default My Little Experiment

First off, let me apologize to the decent members of this group for putting
you through a certain someone's temper tantrum. I've been laying low for a
long time, especially when ignoranus announced that my IP was traceable to
my place of employment. After that little nugget, I started getting a few
anonymous emails that were not kind and indicated that I might be
experiencing system trouble at my place of employment (which of course I
choose not to post publicly since it will be only a matter of time before
ignoranus or one of his cypherfaggot buddies does so). At that point I
decided to lay low though my system admins told me I wasn't doing anything
to endanger our system. The thing is, I wasn't at work or using work
facilities so there was no excuse for him to use my name besides really bad
netiquette.

So anyway, I was having an email conversation with a group regular about
speaking one's mind around here can lead to problems off of the group and
how sad it was. Last week I had some surgery and have been basically
bedridden and bored so I got back into the group a little more. I saw that
ignoranus still was belittling people who actually feel emotions and decided
to see how long it would take to get him all emotional again in his nasty
little way. I gave myself a week since I'm no longer bedridden and able to
leave the house with DH for short periods of time.

I admit, I went back to calling him on the carpet for *everything*. I also
made sure not to be dishonest. His kind of hypocrisy is like that of Rush
Limbaugh. He's completely unable to live up to the standards he expects of
everyone else. He calls me a liar but can't say what I've lied about. In a
way I knew the "alleged" remark would get to him. He made a similar remark
about me in the past in reference to my "alleged" weight loss. Just an FYI,
I've met a few members of this group recently in REAL LIFE so I have nothing
to hide. He resorts to calling me names like liar and he even once called
me a stalker (which is hilarious really) with zero evidence. Meanwhile I've
got a few specific examples of my claims that he's a manipulative liar and
hyporite and would happily share if needed.

The only part of the experiment that didn't happen (yet) is the inundation
of this group by his mindless drones that never post here except in order
to attack others and defend his every word and action to the end.

So sadly, ignoranus is just as predictable as always. When he can't come
back with facts he will attempt to shift the topic away from his behavior to
just making **** up about me and others. I did say in another post that I'm
not leaving, and I'm not. I won't be going after his posts for sport
anymore. If he addresses me specifically or is being completely offensive
I still reserve the right to respond, but I'll keep it topic based and not
personal. He can go back to his own little fantasy world where he's not
really an emotionally and socially retarded pathetic creep.

I'm going to keep using Nunya B. and nunyadayumbidnez (it's a real email
that works!!) cause I like them. And my volleyball team is called "the
volleyball chicks" so it's become kind of a real life nickname. If
ignoranus wants to post my real name every single day, fine. I don't care.
I really don't have anything to hide since I've been public locally about my
eating disorder history - come out of the anonymous closet so-to-speak and
anyone I work with who stumbles across these flame wars will just laugh and
wonder why I was so easy on the moron.

Um, ok. Personally, I don't have an issue with either of you. I do
think that it was pretty low class of him to post your real name. I
assume that he feels that you might have done some low class things
towards him as well, at some point (just a guess, I don't really know
either way). It's very clear that you don't like each other, and I'm a
little bit mystified why you don't just put each other in your killfiles
and be done with it, but that's not really any of my business, of
course.

Because back when I had him killfiled, he took every opportunity to make
nasty little comments about me and toward me. I got tired of my friends
emailing me his ignorant lies and decided to stand up for myself again. He
claims to be ignoring me but that's just another lie, I've got plenty of
examples, more than he'll ever be able to provide to back up his lies. Low
class is a very good way to describe it.

I certainly can't claim to know both sides of the story, since I
wasn't hear for when this feud started. I don't know who is in the
right, or if both or neither or you are. The was it looks to me now,
coming in late, is that both of you seem to be equally snippy. Yes, it
was low class of him to post your real name. There is no earthly
legitimate reason that I can think of for him to have done so. On the
other hand, you seem to never pass up a chance to make some sort of
insulting remark towards him whenever someone seems to disagree with him
for whatever reason. This doesn't exactly seem like taking the high
road to me.

By all means, continue this feud to you heart's content. As I've
said, it really is none of my business. I'm just saying that from where
I sit, you're not coming across as being vastly superior to him in this
matter.

Nor am I attempting to be. What I did was no better than his normal crap
except that I had evidence and substantiation for my statements. As I said,
I plan to back off again - and trust me, there are numerous occasions where
I've kept my snippiness to myself Picking out the lies and bull**** in
his posts could be a full time job for someone who was actually interested
or bored enough.

I do plan to engage in discussion on topics, express dissenting opinions
where I dissent, and go back to being a productive member of this group.
I'm no longer homebound and getting back to my real world and I've done what
I set out to do.

Annie,

There once was a day when ASD was a great group for support and
encouragement. What little there is here today pales in comparison to how
it was just a few years ago. I believe there are only a handful of regulars
still around, and those that left did not necessarily meet their goal weight
and move on. Contrary - there was a time when there were alot of long term
maintainers here to offer advice to others struggling to achieve their
goals.

But Ignoranus has done a good job of being a one man show with sockpuppets
and all, to ruin this group. He's turned this into his own personal
playground.

I, for one, who once was a regular, has been around these parts for 7yrs,
was a successful maintainer and had a reputation in the group for being
knowledgable and down to earth (a bit blunt at times, I admit) - I can say -
that Nunya didn't start this fight. Ignoranus did, with his insistence on
using peoples full names, and general lack of usenet (oh, and from someone
who claims to have been around it since the beginning too, he should know
better).

There once was a day when our biggest complaint was the occasional spammer
trying to sell their herbalife pills. But now, this place is hardly worth
even looking at. There is no good support backbone or encouragement any
more.

Its sad to see - but the reason many do not killfile Ignoranus is they don't
want new dieters to fall for his crap, and then fail. We'd rather try to
set new people straight and help them on their way to achieving their goals
and not have to put up with the false information that ignoranus spews out.

Let's also not forget that he's such a "man" (hah hah), he can't stand
up to any online name long enough for a killfile to be of any use. He
changes his online name all the time.

It started when he joined. It used to be a great ng, now, with the
exception of those few subjects that he doesn't join in, it pretty well
sucks.

I don't even read it very often. Sigh, it's too bad, it was a great ng
once...
