Insight of a GOD
Honestly, what did you think I was doing on this site 2-3 years ago? Being a troll, stirring up animosity? Or did you think I was misguidedly passionate? I'd like to hear your thoughts

you knew the way
Definitely just trolling.
The whole bench pressing thing and working as a trucker and the constantly working to insinuate yourself into the culture by pissing off many of the longest time posters (at that time in history) just to make a racket and become somewhat known leading into the whole G.O.A.T. persona was really annoying. It gets tiresome to see the same waste of space and clutter on the boards on a daily basis. I still blame Rackier for the impression he made and the overwhelming amount of posters who followed his example as a way to become recognized within the community. It wasn't a thing that happened in season's 1, 2, and 3. But as the effect of the Maximum Explosion reached it's peak and loads of new posters constantly joined it became kind of the defacto way to make an impression and no one cared that the impressions they were making weren't great ones. Everyone seemed to subscribe to the policy that any publicity is good publicity and I feel like it damaged the community as well as made the boards less useful for the purposes for which it was supposed to exist.
I always much preferred when poster's became relevant because they contributed to the community rather than their egos (think the ways that Jikker, or 2ndChance, or Wuks, or DTN, or Malicious Metal became relevant posters, by just posting and being themselves and pitching in on complicated issues both having to do with the play in game and the community in general). Oh, and then the memers who really just posted to make things fun like Orbital Drop Kick, HD, LF, or Macilento.
Of course nothing ever stays the same and people change over time and watching some poster's change, like the G.O.A.T. himself, and become valuable contributing members kinda makes it all seem wurf in the end.
I always thought you were using this site to pick up guys and you would private message them, flirt a little bit to see if they were interested and if so you would go and set up a meet and greet at an interstate rest stop and see what happened from there.
I came in only shortly before your banning, but I always assumed troll.
