I found this pretty funny. MST3K schtick in italics = CU's.

Makes me wonder.*sigh* Yes, I can see that.
(Translation: and I'd like to strangle the little fucker for doing it.)
Here's the thing CU... You and I have been through some wars together, sometimes as enemies and sometimes as recalcitrant comrades. You might not believe me, but I've grown quite fond of you in a weird sort of way. (I think it's lust...I'm one of the few real men she's known at TK.) At least I respect you now. How you feel about me is sort of irrelevant, but I do respect you.
(Translation: I fully understand that you are a two-legged, rabid animal totally devoid of anything resembling principles you sociopathic shitcock, and I shudder to think where you might strike next and whose feelings you might trample on for your personal amusement. Please don't let it be me.)
That said, you insulted the man's wife. Hell CU, I use that as one of the examples in the only slip shod rules I have.
(If I can shrug off jack constantly referring to my wife as an over-the-counter sex toy, he can live with me occasionally referring to Morrighan as a sasquatch. At least, that's the way I see it... personally, my wife doesn't repulse others on sight.)
As to the other trouble brewing. Hell, that has been brewing for a long time. There must be 10 sleeper accounts on the membership and a few too many registrations in the last 24 hours.
(That's what you think.)
I don't hate TK. I just think it is irrelevant to my life at the moment. TK had/has its place and purpose.
(Translation: that place disgusts me.)
SC on the other hand is a complete mistake. (!!!) It was never planned as a board that would survive. I know the popular spin on it is that I ran off to begin a board, but that's not true. Not that the truth has much to do with a good troll. [smiles]
(Mmm-HMM.)
Some EI people wanted a place to secretly write up a bunch of rules. I asked mm if we could throw this board back up and she said "sure".(Is this true?) When the dust settled, people wanted SC to stay up. Hell, I even asked if mm wanted to be an admin, but she said she thought the board would do better if she kept a low profile.
(So I chose Hambil instead, and that's why we're at the point we are now.)
Why am I boring you with all this (Good question).......... because if the board gets in trouble, it gets in trouble. Some of it I can stop or alter, but most of it was going to happen anyway. It's the nature of the dynamics between TK and SC (Something Hambil has no grasp on.). It no longer matters what the truth was at the beginning, it has morphed into something else, and trouble was always going to find SC.
(Go go power rangers!!!)
I thank you for your PM, and I'll see what I can do.. but most of it [as far as I can see] is set in motion and probably will just play itself out.
(Not if some involved keep it going for months on end... or if you shut the board down... or if Hambil has another heart attack.)
Maybe the board will blow up at the end.
Maybe TK will have a little drama to shout about for a few weeks.
Maybe I'll sell my screenplay on 'trolling on the Internet' and tell you all about it.
(I expect top billing now.)
Maybe at least you and I can sit back and sort of laugh at the antics of the "other" players.
(I do.)
Of all the solutions, I like the last the best.. although I would like to sell my screenplay.

[yes, I know it is too long.. I was in a mood.]
[and yes, I know it is dangerous to write anything to you.. I'm ambivalent about it to be honest.]
