Clarification on "The Religion Thread":

I had originally made a thread one morning before going to work called something along the lines of "Are there any Christian BL members?"

I expected at least one or two people to pop in with "Yeah, I'm christian, what do you want?" and it was all just going to be a leadup to a punchline when i came home and asked them how much praying, realistically, i'd have to do to get God to send Mike to hell.

Instead I came home to like 4 pages of people arguing with each other about abortion and various points of contention between every belief you could name. Apparently the discussion had gotten pretty heated and grew completely beyond the scope of my original stupid joke. I noticed my VM inbox had several messages from Chaos Greyblood, in which he was saying things like "I hope you're happy with what you've done" and "How can you be so ignorant and hateful??" as if it had been me posting in that thread all day. It's not in my nature to defuse such situations, so our exchange quickly escalated to me just filling his VM wall with high resolution faces like This: http://i.cubeupload.com/Q0F8Mv.png and this: http://i.cubeupload.com/24ERBZ.jpg
Which enraged him and earned me a warning.



Clarification on Bittersweet:

People were actually rather skeptical of the Bittersweet account at first, probably because I hammed it up so hard. I realized I needed some sort of evidence to seal the deal, so I got a female friend of mine to record this: http://vocaroo.com/i/s0J3AMSoVS8i

It worked like magic and everyone fell in line due mostly to their Mulderesque "I want to believe" nature.

The Bittersweet character actually lasted not "under a year" but just over 13 months.


Clarification of Randy Hamblast:

Randy joined BL a few months after I did but I think he was banned before I was. He also continued to haunt Mike's forum along with me and the rest of the Bungle Boys. Randy's special skills are finding ways to break forums and getting people to argue vigorously over the most trivial nonsense.

Clarification as to Why Mike Hated Me:

I joined the forum right amidst some huge row involving mike and "the mods" and, immediately sensing blood in the water, I got to work on poking at him to see what sort of reactions i could get. Early on, I made parody blog posts in the same style as his, then when i got to better know the feel of the forum, i started actively participating in the "discussions" that resulted from them. When Mike started commenting on my blog entries mocking him (lord knows he had to get his say in) I discovered to my delight that the blog permissions allowed for the blog's owner to edit any comment at will, regardless of who posted it. It just so happened that being "misrepresented" was one of Mike's biggest pet-peeves, so we'd go back and forth for hours editting and re-edditing his comments, with his subsequent re-edits becoming increasingly furious.

A few months or so after the Bittersweet thing blew up and Mike banned 95% of his forum members, My friends and I made our own forum (now defunct) which contained a semi-hidden subforum titled "DSM Trolling Battlestation" (non-members could see that the forum existed, but not what the contents were. This was actually a special mod we had to install, because the default is that hidden forums are completely hidden. We wanted Mike to know it was there.) After several sloppy attempts to infiltrate our forum, Mike gave up (out of lazyness or maybe ineptitude). We posted often in the hidden forum so it would frequently list thread dates under the name. Mike was massively paranoid for months while this was going on. Little did he know that all of our plotting was done elsewhere and that subforum was actually just full of loads of stupid pictures and shitposting).


Other things I can remember getting in trouble for:

My entries for the banner contest got me into hot water I think...

I think i posted a picture of my ass once and this was the resulting conversation with DP: http://i.cubeupload.com/67YufA.png

Also, at one point I realized you could edit the tags of other people's blog entries. So one night i went through and added my own custom tags to 200+ blog entries and it is my understanding that Dark Pulse had to go through each one and reset it manually. Oopsie.
