Keep in mind who you're replying to. Check his posting history. You should see an AC who, while still a stalker, makes a very valid point by posting links to all of twitter's extreme anti-MS posts. The eagerness to bash "M$ Windoze" when Windows isn't the problem is why he is on my Foes list.
Meteorites hit Earth all the time, but they burn up in the atmosphere and are reduced to grains of sand by the time they hit the ground. The moon could theoretically hold an atmosphere for a few thousand years, so it shouldn't be a problem.
True, but they also murdered millions of their own people. Part of the point I'm trying to make is that if the theocratic hypocrites gain any more power, we may have a culture with more faith in God, but how many people will die in senseless witch trials? How many people with opposing thought will lose their lives in the name of national security and, later, sanctification of a heathen culture? More faith in God indeed, but may God end up losing faith in us?
It's kind of how the Bolsheviks [sp?] finally took over Russia. They had a very organized army, while the opposition, the supporters of a republican (lowercase r) form of government just had some like-minded people thrown together.
And are you still there? I haven't received a reply to my latest post on this thread. I must have indisputably proven you wrong, and you must have cowardly crawled away like the pathetic troll you are. I win.
I kinda wanted to call getting a subsciption and FPing "Insightful" comments to every story a Karma Trip, introduced by the Trip Master, but whatever floats your boat.
Your link is about the infamous First Slashdot Troll Post Investigation, not about banning moderators.
But let's discuss that thread anyway. A plurality of the mods were Offtopic mods, and the post indeed had nothing to do with Oracle. So you are suggesting that we should shoot someone for being right? Also, there is no solid evidence that a mod blacklist even exists.
One more thing about your "censored thread." This "injustice" which caused you to start your pathetic little holy war was an investigation into trolling - in other words into posts which lower the signal-to-noise ratio. If you are for such an investigation, then why are you trying to increase exactly what the post was trying to reduce?
I know why - you are a bunch of hypocrites. Trolls. You try to post inflammatory messages just to get attention, whether good or bad. You are hopeless failures in life, and such actions are unsuccessful attempts to give yourselves a sense of power. You will never amount to anything, never reproduce. Your lives are an absolute waste.
Okay. It looks like a site that was intentionally designed to tick people off. Oh wait - that's what trolls do.
While you're there, check out the database tool here.
I will admit - that's a neat piece of work. It's a shame it is only being used to break the moderation system.
That's right. Moderation is broken because the likes of you intentionally try to break it to prove a point.
With the database tool, you can quickly gain karma by reposting highly-moderated slashdot posts, and secure the +1 bonus for future jihad operations.
Submarine troll. You collect karma for a while and then burn it off trolling. Should your "jihad operations" reach the respectable, positive contributors who browse at higher thresholds, your use of "jihad" will only rally them against you.
By decreasing/.'s already low signal to noise ratio,
People come to Slashdot for the comments, where ideas are discussed. If you want to promote journalistic integrity as your "About Us" page says, why not engage in educated discussion yourself, rather than spamming the site with rhetoric suggestive of terrorism.
you can force/.'s editors to come clean about their ethical lapses,
Also on your site, you say that editors are unqualified. That would mean incompetent, not malicious.
Also, how would it "force" anything? The only thing it would "force" them to do would be to make the system even more complicated, even less transparent, making things senselessly inconvenient. Isn't that what email spammers did to our inboxes? How about botnet owners and OS security?
and have a great time doing it!
Not only a submarine troll and a twister of facts, but also no conscience. You want to berate the editors earlier in the post for "ethical lapses", but you yourself have no ethics. Have you considered becoming a lawyer? You could be the next Jack Thompson!
Thank you for your support,
You're welcome.

Two things wrong with that. You choose "jihad" just so you can provoke us, when you could have come up with a word with a much more positive connotation, such as "crusade". Then, by calling yourself 31337, you hint at your narcissistic need to elevate yourself in front of others. In fact, the entire post is there just to get attention, which hints at histrionism as well. Go see a psychiatrist.
To sum up, you have what would have been a noble cause, but you ruined it by giving it a negative name, a hypocritical and inappropriate means of delivering that cause, and multiple personality disorders, not to mention the fact that this means so much to you that you find the need to disrupt discussion and tell us all about it. Believe me, I'm doing you a favor by telling you to shut down your site and go get help and a life.

Exactly my point about your "censored thread". My post was indeed offtopic, just like the FSTPI.
Doesn't change the fact that the change in the blockquote tag rendering broke my ASCII sig. Just look at it now!

Yes, they make mistakes. Don't we all?
