Actually, hiab, I think your attack on Macros was
more
irrational than I made it out to be. You began (I'm referring to post 96 here, btw) by stating that your original suspicions had been confirmed.
help im a bug wrote:With all the talk about post restrictions, I think my initial suspicions about Macros are being validated
I took this to mean your suspicion that he has a post restriction. You then quoted a bunch of his posts and said the following:

I'm with you so far. Macros seems to have some sort of post restriction that causes him to insult people and/or be belligerent all the time. That seems reasonable - we had one person speaking in all caps.
The next sentence is where the logic train comes off the rails, though:
help im a bug wrote:Additionally, the "ssssssscummy" in that last post makes me really suspicious that he's scum who has to do a snakelike thing once a day or something. Just something to keep an eye on.
So, you're not only suggesting that he "has to do a snake-like thing once a day" ("or something", conveniently leaving open a backpedal), which I think is
highly
unlikely, but you're suggesting that that's his
second post restriction
? This is laughable to the point of absurdity, imo.
Now, moving on to post 279:
help im a bug wrote:My original vote for you was not OMGUS. I was disturbed by your quoting of me out of context, and I wanted to see how you'd respond. (Hint: you didn't)
Of course I didn't. Why respond to a random vote?
help im a bug wrote:1) I gave evidence, which you ignored
2) I mentioned that my thoughts (about the ssssssnake post restriction) were only suspicions, and that it was "something to keep an eye on." The way you quoted, however, was an obvious attempt to make me look irrational.
1) You gave no evidence that Macros "has to do a snakelike thing once a day" other than the word "ssssscummy" that he used (that's not evidence; that's the data you used to form your hypothesis). You did give evidence that he has
an entirely different post restriction
, which I agree about. However, you failed to argue that such a restriction was scummy in any way.
2) I quoted only the part of your accusation that I thought was most absurd; that is, the part that made me think you were scum. I think that putting it in context actually makes the accusation
less
believable.
Finally, you have yet to answer my charge that while accusing Macros you went ahead and put a different player at lynch - 1.
