In fact, you are more likely going to get yourself into troublesome waters by pursuing this line of defence. So, find another.

Add in malicious quote editing.

I was just trying to make a point. I had no clue you were a real life abuser. This makes our conversation all the more ironic.


The original quote had a [sarcasm] notation near the end of the first sentence.

Ravenclaw accused me of being Nuke, a known sexual harasser. I take this very seriously, as this essentially constitutes slander. Of course, this allegation is baseless, so I asked him the famously loaded "Have you stopped beating your wife?" to make the point that anyone can perpetuate false accusations of abuse over the internet. It's a rhetorical you, not an actual you. Hence the quote in the first post. Say what you will about my rhetorical strategy, but Ravenclaw baited me by insinuating I'm a sexual harasser hiding behind a puppet, an insinuation which would no doubt get anybody on this forum angry.


As for the second post, he added in the sarcasm tag after I posted. I didn't edit out the tag.

Well Soames, on NS, two wrongs don't make a right. They make two separate rulings.

And I wasn't aware of that.

We'll figure out who's wrong and who's right, I suppose.

This is the internet. Nothing is important or serious. It's a shame the NS community is so unreasonably unforgiving. NS is a tool in which SJWs and people with disorders come to fight with each other through it seems, by the looks of the last few pages of this chat.

Grand Central is a welcoming region that believes in our law and second chances. I'll leave it at that.


underlined is Flaming literally all of NS, even if in the context of a harassment discussion the italicized isn't.

FYI: I've locked the thread, as I think it needs a trawl ... I just don't think I'm the right one to do said trawl, given my recent coordination of the Women & NS Symposium that focused on preventing/stopping sexual harassment, so I'm deferring to a colleague.

Problem is, it's a holiday in the US, so I'm not sure who's all around, so your patience is appreciated.

What, the mods don't argue on NS all Memorial Day like we just did? :P

Thanks, Mouse.
