Title: Message from the other side
Post by: nrshida on January 02, 2023, 02:36:25 AM
I have had contact with Zack1234 on the other side over Christmas via a certain medium (email). He had a nasty accident on his highly-tuned Vespa scooter at 87-m.p.h. when attempting to activate his flux-capacitor and travel back to post-war Britain and has injured his John Thomas. Now he's going about the place half-cocked until it heals.  :old:

I doubt he left because of thin skin, other way around was quite obvious with numerous here. I’d put $ on him getting 2 weeks vacation, looked at how this forum has become ruled by snowflakes reporting and decided cya.

I doubt he let anyone get under his skin here.

what I meant was that I think he got reported for a lot of things he said and may have got a vacation, then got butthurt because he couldn't play his "read a book" and "dumb Americans" insults - which honestly was 90 percent of his routine.

Just a guess though.

I was replying to the wondering in general, nothing directed at you.

I believe he pushed the community Stephen Colbert’s buttons enough to get them so irritated that they reported everything he wrote.

His constant criticisms of average Americans unfortunately has too much truth to it. I’ll offer an example of a 25y/o I know. In the last ~3 years she’s kept a job only long enough to get unemployment in CA and then found a way to get fired. She’s moved around in between Hesperia, Palmdale and Lancaster always trading some form of ‘helping’ for rent. She’s used Pell Grants and stimulus $ to party, buy an IPhone, clothes, makeup, tattoos and tons of alcohol. She’s managed to lose lots of close friends, estrange family, ruin her car, slept with married men and contract an std.

She’s just as Zach describes, she hasn’t read a book in years of any kind and is 100lbs or more overweight and literally drinks as much as her liver can tolerate. All of this and wonders why she has anxiety problems and needs antidepressants…More importantly her siblings and large group of friends around her age are all doing very similar things. Imo she is a mirror reflection of the average US 20 something age group. That’s scary. Zach was pointing this out, his method of delivery most probably didn’t like, but maybe also because it’s too true?

British people (one of which I used to be) have a thing called taking the p!55 or banter which is quite different from the squeakiness of some of the snowflakes who post here who really mean their spitefulness but aren't very effective with it because they lack wit. Zack's my AH friend and squamate for well over a decade as evidenced by both our signatures, the fact I have his email address and - for instance - his response to my Photoshopped Ladybird book of How to Win Friends and Influence People indicating appreciation for the time and effort it took to construct such personal banter. He does the same for me I just wasn't around before he popped off.

No RotBaron is right Zack does not have a thin skin and he didn't depart for anything some forum members would like to credit themselves that they're empowered to do. He simply got a bit bored and pursued other hobbies. One empathises.


"dumb Americans"

I must comment on this dubious feature of American culture wherein the most sensitive and immature people remain while those who aren't either depart (because of boredom or the need for an Ace Ventura shower) or are effectively silenced (perhaps through attempted, coordinated mass reporting for example), essentially because you're unable to take any criticism at all and rather tend to metaphorically sit in the corner of your bedroom, rocking back and forth hugging your teddy bear like gigantic (and probably overweight) babies asking for help from some nominally parental entity to remove the source of discomfort. Afterward, when the baby tears have dried up, you pretend to be like an adult and squak the occasional: "He was thin-skinned" soundbite, since it seems like the considered thing to say with a fresh diaper.

And this system has displaced the previous system in a perverse anti-Darwinesque-stylee wherein one would parse comments with the top-level binary split of: if it's untrue you can ignore it, and if it's true maybe it's a point of action instead of a cue to suck your thumbs until the bad man stops saying hurtful things. Poor little loves  :)

Simple fact is that zack violated the rules in just about every post, because nearly all of his posts had no substance other than "read a book, fatty"

So my guess is that when people started reporting these, zack may have been muted for a bit. Then I assume he got butthurt and went away.

Zack is Zack....  we don't have another one. He was always ready to throw a line into any conversation, be it pertinent or not. I'd rather he comes back and continues his bantering. The dang place ain't the same without him.

Well the only thing stopping Zack from coming back is probably Zack..  so my guess is butt hurt.

Title: Re: Message from the other side
Post by: nrshida on January 03, 2023, 12:10:20 PM
I have explicitly outright stated from the original source that there is no butt-hurt. He had no idea what I was talking about when I suggested that. It's just boredom. If you read your own posts and what you call thoughts you might have a more meaningful clue than your shot-in-the-dark guesswork.

These are quotes from this very thread only and over a two day period:-

pouting?

then got butthurt

so my guess is butt hurt.

I assume he got butthurt

You're repetition and constant reframing of events / dim perceptions about what has happened and is happening is boring. Since it's boredom that drove Zack away, you may feel proud.
Title: Re: Message from the other side
Post by: -gg- on January 03, 2023, 12:27:47 PM
 Sure. Whatever you say. Suddenly got bored after he got a vacation hasn't been back since..


And I remember that wailing from you and others when he got his vacation. It wasn't just that he was bored and suddenly left. Lol.

Correlation is not causation. Would you like a book recommendation on reasoning with particularly thick pages for fine motor skill-challenged fingers?


And I remember that wailing from you and others when he got his vacation. It wasn't just that he was bored and suddenly left. Lol.

No let me refresh your particularly dull memory. Zack had already left and I showed up asking about it, which lead to me exposing your organised mass reporting coordinated from your other forums which was evidenced with screen shots and I'm pretty sure you all got a warning from HiTech because it is of course against the rules (which we all know you hate).

It's boring to go over this again. If you're too stupid to remember it's not my problem. That would be boring. Please do not bore us further with it.

You are boring. Zack wasn't boring but you contributed to his boredom and now the other forum members have to put up with your boring contributions instead of his amusing ones.
Title: Re: Message from the other side
Post by: -gg- on January 03, 2023, 01:43:33 PM
Hitech is the one who organize the rule reporting. Because they included it in their rules. To report rule violations. So that's an organized effort to report rule violations.

And whatever you think, that didn't happen. I reported rule violations because people were reporting me and I saw all these other people posting stuff and getting away with anything they wanted. Zack included. So I did what high-tech asked us all to do and report rule violations.

If somebody got tagged for breaking the rules, I guess that's their fault. They can blame the rules and they can blame high-tech..

You say Zack was interesting? I remember trying to engage him and the only thing he would ever say to anybody would be read a book fatty. Or some other one line thing and then move on. He would never actually contribute to anything.

I'm pretty sure he got tagged several times for his rule violations. And that's when he suddenly got bored and left. Lol.

Yeah nah, it's not purely what I think, I formed a hypothesis, gathered evidence and presented it. That's what we who do not live in Mos Eisley spaceport call a convincing argument. Maybe if you repeat it to yourself 500 times it'll change your internal reality. External reality is something different. The beauty of rigorous thought and evidence is, it doesn't matter how much you personally believe it, it still binds and applies to you. Have a go in court sometime and see how your low-level self-lying and what you think is plausible deniability works out.


If somebody got tagged for breaking the rules

Zack did not get tagged, suspended or banned. I asked him and he didn't know what I was talking about. I told you from the source.


You say Zack was interesting? I remember trying to engage him and the only thing he would ever say...

This thing Zack increasingly kept repeating before the onset of total boredom threshold is a binary metaphor rightfully shaming immature, lazy people with no discipline ("fatty") in combination with a special kind of prideful ignorance with the associated cultural mechanisms to support that like equating opinion to evidenced knowledge, unregulated emotional impressions to thinking and those snappy little soundbites which you equate to an appropriate response ("read a book"). As I proposed earlier if it doesn't apply to you then you have nothing to busybody yourself with. However in your case...

And now as a parting exchange - since I notice you are still getting the attention you seem so needy for and I have better things to do - I shall leave you with a parting comment, actually more withering than anything Zack ever said to you, if you think about it: I feel sorry for you.  :rofl

More free welfare and extra unemployment money so they can sit on their fat lazy butt all day and not have a job or be a productive member of society. I went to a business a few days ago and there was a sign in the door that said lobby closed due to lack of help.

Not sure if it’s still the leader, however a few years ago Mexico was the obesity capital of the world, they are street smart as they come though. However, ignorance of most things education wise beyond US 8th grade equivalent. The Rules here…but it’s pretty obvious why their educational system lacks.

That however is not why Mexico does not have an Olympic team. The reason they have no Olympic team is that all of them that can run, jump, or swim..... are over here.

My insurance agent is sitting on his fat lazy butt in a new 911 turbo. Got almost 500k in PPP cash to fund the payroll. The cool thing is the commissions kept rolling in so it was a windfall. I got curious so I did some checking and all the agents in town did the same thing.
