This statement pigeon holes the membership. There's quite a variety here, some who do and don't meet these terms, and the same goes for those who don't stick around. Haven't found the 'type' here to be any different than other autism sites, though the site is very different, yes.

No intention to stereotype, I'm just noting an observation made over a few years of sporadic posting contrasted with my WP experience.  A lot of WP posters simply couldn't handle the random outbursts and freedom to attack and be attacked, it would be overwhelming for them.  That's what I meant about a certain "type", the one thing I'm not seeing is anyone particularly thin skinned.  Call it a backhanded complement.
Don't think I misunderstood the implications in your op all, but will admit it's possible. Misunderstandings are one of the problems that comes with subtlety.

Ah, but a master of subtlety can exploit their own mistakes and successfully dig themselves out of that hole. :orly:
Existence actually has two broad meanings despite its apparent meaningless. The constant reconciliation of all its parts, and the conservation of any closed system as a whole.

Morality can be extrapolated from these meanings to make these two commandments of godless morality: 1). Be in harmony with one another and 2). Care for the environment.

You mean like the bit about the back handed compliment? Yes, considered that point as well, but didn't see the need to say anything other than my thoughts on the op haven't changed.

Not exactly but yes still true somewhat. I'm talking that they can dig themselves out of perceived misunderstandings without looking that obvious. :zoinks:

The above mentioned figure has left. You didn't actually accomplish anything.

I guess someone had to figure it out.

Well that's definitely not an example of subtlety. A bit too blunt if you ask me. :orly:

I don't think anyone was trying to figure it out. We were just talking about it until it went stale.
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

No, you've proven it quite a few times here.

He should come back and take the time to get to know the people here; same with you. Maybe try some different threads instead of posting about the same stuff, relax, check out zip's mom or something.
