When ILE/Moderator board mods get shook

OK - so by accident or design, we've reached this point.

I've been posting on ILx for over six years primarily to have fun and to relieve the inevitable tedium which comes from having a day job which I do perhaps too well and leave myself too much time to think and ponder. In times of crisis it has proved a lifeline; even through my own well-documented ups-and-downs (including substantial hateful behaviour on my part in the past; I admit it and the reasons behind it are well known), other people here have proved invaluable, whether admonitory (cutting me down to size when I deserved it) or reassuring (boosting my self-esteem when I needed it), and the most important of them have become close, long-term friends. Some here will argue that ILx is not a substitute psychotherapist's couch, and I would agree with that; it isn't really the kind of place for long-form exhaustive arguments or treatises since blogs and FT serve that purpose better.

But "barred" is an unwarranted slap, and since I have not participated in mass revivals of any ILx poster's threads I can only assume that there are long-standing personal reasons behind this. And when certain moderators seem to make it their business to wage an continuing, obscure and tedious psychological war against me, to the extent that they are driven to "bar" me from an entire message board, then there doesn't seem any point in my staying around here, and I feel it would be much less pain and hassle to take my thoughts and views elsewhere, so that's what I'm going to concentrate on doing in future. If nothing else, it just isn't fun here anymore. My life is good at the moment and there's no room in it for these kinds of mind games.

So well done, chaps - you've got what you wanted. I hope it makes you feel better, and happier.

To everyone else - have a nice life, and goodbye.

Step by step, heart to heart
Left right left, we all fall down
Like toy soldiers
Bit by bit, torn apart
We never win, but the battle wages on
We're toy soldiers

The chemist said it would be alright, but I've never been the same.
You are a proper fool, I said.
Well, if Albert won't leave you alone, there it is, I said,
What you get married for if you don't want children?
HURRY UP PLEASE ITS TIME
Well, that Sunday Albert was home, they had a hot gammon,
And they asked me in to dinner, to get the beauty of it hot--
HURRY UP PLEASE ITS TIME
HURRY UP PLEASE ITS TIME
Goonight Bill. Goonight Lou. Goonight May. Goonight.
Ta ta. Goonight. Goonight.
Good night, ladies, good night, sweet ladies, good night, good night.

Matt DC RIP. Heaven needed a Keystone Cops-esque figure.

Is this really as pathetically childish as it looks from over here?

little bit worse

if you don't like it don't read it ban it

When I was a lad, if you wanted to have a bewildering shitstorm of this magnitude you had to cut and paste it from a previous bewildering shitstorm

You used to chew up a bewildering shitstorm and use it as a paste to spread between two other bewildering shitstorms?

Perhaps next Friday should be a designated Nice day, instead of arbitrarily reviving threads. It would be a challenge for...certain people.

Holy shit Quitney.

Man, I thought stevem brought the heat with the maracas post, but then ol' Henry K has to bring the Brazilian out. This is truly a great day for showboat ilx posts.

It's like the Night of the Wrong Knives around here.

HAVE A GOOD W/E GUYZ

Batts was a made man; Tommy wasn't. We had to sit still and take it. It was among the Italians. It was real greaseball shit. They even shot Tommy in the face so his mother couldn't give him an open-casket funeral.

Marcello - check yr email. Your hotmail account that is, if you're still using it.

And so Dr. Beckett finds himself leaping from life to life, striving to put right what once went wrong and hoping each time that his next leap will be the leap home.

Snooze you lose.

It seems ILM mods are also "shook". Passantino, it is believed, is now banned from ILM too.

Or, so it says on the mod board anyway.
