I echo these ideas. He seemed to me to be someone trying to fake a persona or someone taking on a ill fitting new persona. The avatars are regularly changing and always have juxtaposed opposing elements.

It's possible, but I've already explained why it's unlikely, why the more charitable interpretation is flawed, and moreover a troll like NJ doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt. He had, and exhausted, the benefit of the doubt the first time he engaged in gay-baiting and was politely asked to stop. Why do you have such a hard-on for me, still? I guess I just don't understand how you can be this pissed about nothing. Because at the end of the day, your only real argument is that you were offended. Well, okay... Do you not recall all the threads I created to apologize to people, even when I didn't think I had to? Some of you spit in my face even when I apologized! Do you not recall Berb and I had plans to meet for lunch in L.A.? Look, I get it. I was a homophobe and a typical fundy. And I engaged in a shit-ton of controversial topics that pissed a lot of people off. But I did earn a lot of people's respect, even amongst those who pretty much despised my ideologies. More importantly, I didn't do what you're claiming I did. If you hated NJ, I get it. That's fine. To be perfectly honest, I didn't give a shit then and I don't care now. I knew it came with the territory. And for how vile many people were to me, I rarely came unglued and I certainly didn't say anything like you and Berb and Dan were claiming. Since I didn't do that, that's why I wasn't suspended. The only thing they could suspend me for was my Austin Powers joke. (I'm sorry, but I couldn't resist at the time! Someone else opened the door, I just walked in) Anyway, so the bottom line is that you wanted to punish me for my unpopular beliefs about homosexuality. That's it. Well, even though I don't like homophobia, what I dislike even more is punishing people for their beliefs. This isn't North Korea, Crash. And the moderators are not tasked to be the Gestapo. What do you want me to do? I apologized back then and I'll apologize now. But I know what I did say and what I didn;t say. Your accusations are baseless. I think it's just that you hate me, not that I had a seething hatred for homosexuals. "Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from mistaken conviction." — Blaise Pascal

It's the truth that I have NEVER compared homosexuals (whom I have no objections too whatsoever these days, I'm pleased to report) to pedophiles, incest, polygamy, zoophiles, yada, yada. The evidence is all documented, and it seems that I have been vindicated by people who didn't like my former self. Hyroglyphx writes:
It was just psychology.
The part that really fucks with my head is that before I joined the forum I had what seems to be a genuine experience with God. To this day I can't say if it was real or if I had wanted it to be real.

No, because I didn't even notice you until this thread. I've been too busy with my life to notice anything not bleedingly obvious on the forum. I'm just a little dumbfounded that someone like you could really stop being christian. And being a skeptik, I still have my doubts that you're actually nem jug. Edit. How did you rack up thirteen hundred posts without any noticing your ip? Or did you move? Edited by Taz, : No reason given.

Both hyro and NJ are douchebags (probably the strongest parallel) You do realise that you've managed to derail yet another thread...?

If you really are NJ in disguise, then that makes your "conclusion" above flagrantly disingenuous, making you STILL a rather dishonest/despicable person.
Really?

If you really are NJ in disguise, then that makes your "conclusion" above flagrantly disingenuous, making you STILL a rather dishonest/despicable person. If I was an incredibly disingenuous and despicable person, I probably wouldn't have told the forum who I was. Make your own judgments though and assess the situation as best as you see fit. If you think I'm a piece of crap, you're certainly entitled to that opinion. You wouldn't be the first.

What's this continuing hard-on you have for this place, Crash? Interesting people, an effective and easy-to-use BB software, a subject focus that I'm interested in, and a set of clear and effective forum guidelines that promote highly informative discussion.
After a three year absence you show up here pissing on everything, Mod, the other moderators, Percy, the forum and its members, everything. Again, you're saying much that just isn't so. I've not "pissed" on anything, either here or in GenDiscMod11. I've raised substantive issues I had with moderation and then defended my viewpoint. Percy, Mod, the rest of the moderator staff, and everybody else continue to have my respect as people. I'm just of the position that, in the specific case that Modulous opened this thread to talk about, mistakes were made. "Pissing"? Sorry, Paul, you're completely full of shit.
To find out why you feel justified in storming in here after a three-year absence pissing on everyone. Since I've not done that - since literally no part of your characterization of this thread is accurate - what do you expect to get, here? I can't justify something I didn't actually do - to wit, I didn't "storm in", since I was already here, and I've not pissed on anybody. That's actually what you're doing, Paul.

Are you even from Miami you whore?! I feel violated, like when an animal is raped by another animal. You replied, when I said you got here after me, "It would seem that way." I always figured you were an old member, I just didn't care. I have read a lot of your old stuff, would have loved to debate your NJ alter-ego. But Hyro is fun too. I hope you don't get banned for this (or whatever happens to lying whores), whatever changes you've made personally still give you and your opinions an edge I enjoy debating. My slogan will be: Percy Show Mercy! - Oni Edited by onifre, : No reason given.

In light of Hyro/NJ's latest admissions and glaring intents, do you or anyone else now concede that Crashfrog might have plausible/probable POVs? Just curious.

Would you agree that up to the Berb suspension - the prickliness was mostly from Berb? Yes, absolutely - Berb blew up and his behavior absolutely merited suspension.
We might not completely agree on everything - but I think we can be adults shake hands (or curtly nod) and move on. Thanks for explaining your position in more depth, it was useful. Well, I appreciate that. Now, let me get to the two pages of other people's replies!
