You seem to have realized the branding mistake and have since rebranded, which I wholeheartedly agree with. Had this been the brand from the beginning, I probably wouldn't have wasted my time.
If you're visiting tinder.com for months before you realize it isn't a site for firewood then it's not a problem with the site, it's a problem with you failing to observe your surroundings and not reading the actual description of the site - which was there when you got here. Not surprising since you made it clear many times over that you have no intention of assimilating to the forum culture, so why bother to read the admin's logs and site descriptions.
You enjoy having the last word and I've given it to you in every single one of our exchanges, but you having the last word and me reading it are not synonymous. Every time I held a mirror up to you, you felt disrespected by the naked contempt you've shown others and yet you refuse to modify your behavior. You posted some long survey with ignorant assumptions loaded into the questions and what amounted to a book review on liberal mythology that nobody really cared to engage with. Sometimes when they did, you bitched out it. You're obsessed with respect, give none, and apparently when reading the website address -that you are now complaining about being a misrepresentation- you selectively ignored the "mudpit" portion of it.
You'd have been kicked from most sites five times over by now for just being a tiresome troll, which is probably why in spite of the constant sniveling you've done you just keep coming back. You've been kicked form everywhere else you've gone I'd guess, or nobody else wanted to play these games and ignored you. You're on the ignore list of some members and others have considered your rhetoric to be trolling. Maybe you're just a little different, but your willful refusal to even try to assimilate to the culture that you invaded isn't on anyone except you. This ignoring of the mudpit part and bitching about not being satisfied with the politics part is entirely typical of your bullshit rhetorical tactics, which I am no longer going to bother pointing out to help you improve your chances of meaningful engagement. You don't want to have a discussion. You want to argue and you want to be immune from having the same shade thrown on you that you throw on others.
As I said in the last long post I made to you, you can either get over it or you can't. Clearly at this point, you can't. You keep coming back, angrier than when you left, more recalcitrant, more eager to engage in circular arguments, and forever unwilling to accept that your opinions and beliefs are not facts and are not axioms that the rest of us must accept as true. By all means, feel free to call me all the names you'd like and make all the insinuations you'd like. You're erasing years off your life with your addiction to drama and conflict, but I'm just going about my day. We're a lightly moderated and censorship resistant forum, which you knew... but if you want to make an ass of yourself that's entirely acceptable here.
Other people have the right to post here without you dragging them into your crap and they certainly have a right to not reply to you. I have exercised that right often and have never regretted the decision when I finally got around to seeing your replies. I'm a member of this site like everyone else, with the exception being that I remove spam... and I'm willing to handle people that engage in trollish or toxic behavior more than anyone else cares to.
I very much doubt I'll read your reply, but the dopamine rush you get from writing it will feed that little monster inside you for a little bit. Enjoy the high, it's on the house.
