Heh. I've no idea what "bint" means in Atlanta, but in the UK it's derogatory slang for "woman".

Maybe it hurts my case but I stand by that sentiment. I realize this is the COR and thicker than normal skin is the dress code but Matt was being a callous asshole and there are some topics that (I believe) are owed more sensitivity than others. They aren't calls for trifling meditations on the Biblical ontology of evil and Matt's rumination in that regard is barely capable of sustaining such a conversation.

If he'd started a separate thread, whether or not it was related to the topic he posted in, I'd have taken a different stance. I probably would have ignored it. Unfortunately, he didn't. Even though it is instructive as to why I am not a moderator in this forum, if I were one with banning privileges, I'd have banned him. Not a suspension - just an outright ban.

The fact is that I have tried to deal with it diplomatically, prior to this episode. Matt was just as dismissive about it, then. The fact that I've been party to pissing him off enough to start an alt account and post his objection to the way he's been treated brings me a great deal of satisfaction.

It doesn't mean much of anything here, I use it derogatorily because I like how it sounds. Now that I think about it, it is slang for a woman in the UK isn't it? Lol.

After some thinking I feel like this too, personally I would like to see others get soft banned or at least warned for the rude language they use sometimes.

Fucking hell, Eddie. Some poor bastard gets sliced up in a freak accident and the COR's standard response is to have a pun contest, and you're outraged that Matt "ruminates on Biblical ontology?" You're not from this planet.

Like all those threads with people getting injured or having other mishaps happen to them and cor members competing to make the best pun? Matt is harmless compared to some of the other users here. I can't possibly fathom what he could have said, here, to deserve a ban. Actually rather curious.

I guess we can all say MattSanity is a BANana. get it!




sorry guys i always sucked at these

I first heard that quote as just a vocal cut; blew my mind when I found out it was an old guy saying it. Always thought it was an old lady.
