Did he? Not cool to pick at disabilities. If that is true then some users are more immature than I thought.LJS9502_basic

I've been diagnosed with OCD and it's not really crippling.

That said, it's pretty clear that topsemag suffers from some severe "neurotic" behaviors-- whatever they might be.

[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"] Are you being coy? The users I've seen most engage together has been yourself, rawsavon, jandurin, xaos, and teenaged...and occasionally another user or two.LJS9502_basic

lulz

Are you being coy? Two pages ago you said that you don't know who Jandurin is. I rarely converse with you. Hell I haven't visited OT much in the last couple of months, not until recently.

You do know I was not serious about Jandurin....right? Anyway it has nothing to do with conversing with me. It's what I've observed. And you have been a party to it. You frequently join in for the lulz as you call it.

Everyone talks to you because you post a lot. A hell of a lot. I enter a thread and it's you and some users spamming for pages on end.

Are you seriously expecting me to notice who started it? Does it even matter? You're a grown adult. This is silly.

I get trolled, I laugh at it, and I move on.

Depends. I've often thought ganging up to pick on individuals to be the sign of the weak.

I quite enjoy lulz.

I haven't seen what you're talking about, but lulz are good.

Point taken, but isn't he a grown man? He should be able to cope better with bullying.

Though I guess I shouldn't judge, since I am not aware of his mental state.

Isn't this OCD bit just pure speculation though? It sounds as though he could act irrationally based on what MissL said about being trolled, without needing an underlying mental illness.

OCD is indeed a mental illness.... specifically an anxiety disorder... and it has diagnostic criteria. Obviously it can't be done over the net, but I'm curious as to what made people think he had it... odd thing to suss online without him saying it outright.

[QUOTE="BranKetra"] Those pms were a response to him insulting me in a way I found hypocritical. I just pointed it out. If I could notice that after a short time, other people probably notice it, too. It's better to deal with something like that sooner than later IMO. Unless you find a way to gain from a person being in such a state. Not you, personally. Seeing as that is what happened after that other mod got offended, I would say it was something before.

None of it 'bothered' me. I laughed at it/found it humorous. It just did not go like I thought it would...I figured things would have 'worked out' is all. But no big deal/hurt feelings on either side [QUOTE="BranKetra"] Sorry for the late reply. Something came up.

NP [QUOTE="MissLibrarian"] He was actually trolled by a bunch of people tracking him orchestrated by a thread over on TDH.

is that really 'trolling'/what it has been reduced to (that tracking somoene's private profile is now considered trolling) [spoiler]  [/spoiler]

={

Beans, will you do it for me?

I don't know how to tell you this, but innocent children have been brainwashed by Bacon's salacious agendas. Before I launch into my rant, permit me the prelude caveat that Bacon's inveracities are based on a denial of reality, on the substitution of a deliberately falsified picture of the world in place of reality. And this dishonesty, this refusal to admit the truth, will have some very serious consequences for all of us when you least expect it. If you ask Bacon if it's true that its theatrics do not pass muster by any objective standards, you'll just get a lot of foot-shuffling and downcast eyes in response. Once it becomes clear that by an odd twist of fate, with Bacon's morals, simple credos like "check your sources" and "argue the other side of the question" have gone out the window, it becomes apparent that Bacon will stop at nothing to devastate vast acres of precious farmland. This may sound outrageous, but if it were fiction I would have thought of something more credible. As it stands, it's our responsibility to increase awareness and understanding of our similarities and differences. That's the first step in trying to explain a few facets of this confusing world around us, and it's the only way to carry out the famous French admonition, écrasez l'infâme!, against its publicity stunts.

Should this be discussed in school? You bet. That's the function of education: To teach students how to purge the darkness from Bacon's heart. Let's conduct a Gedankenexperiment. Suppose we could create a hypothetical population free of muzzy-headed immoralism enthusiasts. Let's assume, furthermore, that Bacon were powerless to treat people like craven, drossy rakes. In this hypothetical situation, wouldn't we all be free to fight to the end for our ideas and ideals? Let's make this dream a reality. Let's get people to realize that the picture I am presenting need not be confined to Bacon's politics. It applies to everything it says and does.

Bacon just keeps on saying, "We don't give a f!ck about you. We just want to distract attention from more important issues." According to Bacon's distortions, distractions, and outright deceptions, anyone who resists Bacon deserves to be crushed. Fortunately, most of the people who are seriously interested in preserving our civilization know that the reality is that Bacon's intent is to prevent us from asking questions. It doesn't want the details checked. It doesn't want anyone looking for any facts other than the official facts it presents to us. I wonder if this is because most of its "facts" are false.

Wanting to misdirect our efforts into fighting each other rather than into understanding the nature and endurance of avaricious radicalism is one thing, but why would anybody possibly want to pit people against each other? Any honest person who takes the time to think about that question will be forced to conclude that all the deals it makes are strictly one-way. Bacon gets all the rights, and the other party gets all the obligations. To get even the simplest message into the consciousness of self-absorbed lackwits, it has to be repeated at least 50 times. Now, I don't want to insult your intelligence by telling you the following 50 times, but by refusing to act, by refusing to pursue virtue and knowledge, we are giving Bacon the power to violate its pledge not to cause wishy-washy subversion to gather momentum on college campuses. Bacon has called innocent children scary, flippant shirkers to their faces. This was not a momentary aberration or a slip of the tongue, and hence, we can safely say that it believes that those of us who oppose it would rather run than fight. The real damage that this belief causes actually has nothing to do with the belief itself, but with psychology, human nature, and the skillful psychological manipulation of that nature by Bacon and its snotty stooges. The irony is that Bacon's most judgmental snow jobs are also its most self-aggrandizing. As the French say, "Les extremes se touchent."

Bacon can go on saying that a richly evocative description of a problem automatically implies the correct solution to that problem, but the rest of us have serious problems to deal with that preclude our indulging in such drugged-out dreams just now. Under these conditions, I once overheard Bacon say something quite astonishing. Are you strapped in? Bacon said that space aliens are out to lay eggs in our innards or ooze their alien hell-slime all over us. Can you believe that? At least its statement made me realize that the main dissensus between me and Bacon is that I believe that Bacon is allergic to any idea that isn't confused. It, on the other hand, contends that merit is adequately measured by its methods and qualifications. Bacon's ravings are a house of mirrors. How are we to find the opening that leads to freedom? Here's the answer, albeit in a somewhat circuitous and roundabout style: Bacon's list of sins is long and each one deserves more space than I have here. Therefore, rather than describe each one individually, I'll summarize by stating that if it would abandon its name-calling and false dichotomies it would be much easier for me to make a cause célèbre out of exposing its double standards for what they really are. Now that this letter has come to an end, I hope you walk away from it realizing that Bacon plants false evidence to incriminate its adversaries.

I didn't mean that he acted irrationally that I know of, just that behaviour which could have been attributed to anxiety could have been the result of REAL factors, relating to what MissL said about TDH members, and not a product of any disorder.

I realize that everyone is entitled to his opinion, and I respect this. I also hope that you will all respect mine as you read this letter. The nitty-gritty of what I'm about to write is this: Beans's planning to exploit issues such as the global economic crisis and the increase in world terrorism in order to instigate planet-wide chaos. Planet-wide chaos is its gateway to global tyranny, which will in turn enable it to help the worst kinds of piteous litterbugs I've ever seen back up their prejudices with "scientific" proof.

I was, however, going to forget about the whole thing when it suddenly occurred to me that beans's apostles don't represent an ideology. They don't represent a legitimate political group of people. They're just flat distasteful. Mass anxiety is the equivalent of steroids for beans. If we feel helpless, beans is energized and ramps up its efforts to contaminate or cut off our cities' water supply.

Although beans has never read carefully anything I've written, it might violate strongly held principles regarding deferral of current satisfaction for long-term gains in a matter of days. What are we to do then? Place blinders over our eyes and hope we don't see the horrible outcome?

Already, some dodgy enemies of the people have begun to cater to the basest instincts of revolting mob bosses, and with terrifying and tragic results. What endeavors will follow from their camp is anyone's guess. From what I know of beans's epigrams, it is saying essentially three things:

  1. It has the authority to issue licenses for practicing moral relativism.
  2. The best way to reduce cognitive dissonance and restore homeostasis to one's psyche is to promote its sexist substitute for morality, which defines as hopeless any attempt to arraign it at the tribunal of public opinion.
  3. Bloody-minded scum (especially the immoral type) are more deserving of honor than our nation's war heroes.

Obviously, all three of these are truly biggety. To those few who disagree with some of the things I've written, I ask for your tolerance.

My position is that the absurdity of beans's dissertations did not dawn on me until I realized that when confronted with the real facts, beans usually defends itself with some weak explanation about how I and others who think it's an annoying arrogant-type are secretly using etheric attachment cords to drain people's karmic energy. Beans, in contrast, argues that its obloquies provide a liberating insight into life, the universe, and everything. This disagreement merely scratches the surface of the ideological chasm festering between me and beans. The only rational way to bridge this chasm is for it to admit that its helots argue that self-righteous, ribald marauders should be fêted at wine-and-cheese fund-raisers. These are the same egocentric slatternly-types who pour a few drops of wormwood into our general enthusiasm. This is no coincidence; beans's blackshirts have been staggering around like punch-drunk fighters hit too many times—stunned, confused, betrayed, and trying desperately to rationalize beans's selfish, mad tractates. It is undoubtedly not a pretty sight.

This brings us to the dark underside of beans's publicity stunts, the side that's known to talk about you and me in terms that are not fit to be repeated. Beans is addicted to the feeling of power, to the idea of controlling people. Sadly, it has no real concern for the welfare or the destiny of the people it desires to lead.

Some unenlightened champions of deceit, lies, theft, plunder, and rapine actually insist that women are crazed Pavlovian sex-dogs who will salivate at any object even remotely phallic in shape. This is the kind of muddled thinking that beans is encouraging with its contrivances. Even worse, all those who raise their voice against this brainwashing campaign are denounced as ultra-fatuous knuckle-draggers. Beans presents one face to the public, a face that tells people what they want to hear. Then, in private, it devises new schemes to infiltrate the media with the express purpose of disseminating feckless information.

We must tell the truth no matter who doesn't like it, so to speak. I didn't want to talk about this. I really didn't. But by embarking on wholesale torture and slaughter of innocent civilians, beans has erected a monument to egotism. Only it does not seem proper to say that such a thing has been "created". "Excreted", "belched", "spewed", and "spat out" are expressions more appropriate to the object here described. You see, someone once said to me, "Conventional wisdom states that beans obsesses not with what it can do for this country but with what it can extract from it." This phrase struck me so forcefully that I have often used it since.

All that we have achieved may now be lost, if not in the bright flames of exhibitionism, then in the dense smoke of the savage conclusions promoted by self-indulgent, foul Neanderthals. Beans says that things have never been better. What balderdash! What impudence! What treachery!

Some people have compared uncontrollable, meretricious punks to indelicate, maledicent deadbeats. I would like to take the comparison one step further: Beans somehow manages to maintain a straight face when saying that we should all bear the brunt of its actions. I, not being one of the many lamebrained yahoos of this world, am greatly grieved by this occurrence of falsehood and fantastic storytelling which is the resultant of layers of social dishevelment and disillusionment amongst the fine citizens of a once organized, motivated, and cognitively enlightened civilization. It is common knowledge that beans wants to tear down all theoretical frameworks for addressing the issue. Faugh. It's unquestionably a tragedy that beans's goal in life is apparently to introduce more restrictions on our already dwindling freedoms. Here, I use the word "tragedy" as the philosopher Whitehead used it. Whitehead stated that "the essence of dramatic tragedy is not unhappiness. It resides in the solemnity of the remorseless working of things," which I interpret as saying that when you tell beans's sycophants that beans has no ground and no right to foster mercantalism at every opportunity, they begin to get fidgety and their eyes begin to wander. They really don't care. They have no interest in hearing that it is a cardinal principle that it is an actuarial certainty that it will permit repugnant killjoys to rise to positions of leadership and authority in the blink of an eye. That should serve as the final, ultimate, irrefutable proof that beans often misuses the word "photoreconnaissance" to mean something vaguely related to deconstructionism or sexism or somesuch. Beans's helpers, realizing that an exact definition is anathema to what they know in their hearts, are usually content to assume that beans is merely trying to say that its grievances can give us deeper insights into the nature of reality. In conclusion, let me just say that it is impolitic, dangerous, degrading, and unjust to violate beans's pledge not to discredit and intimidate the opposition.

Edit: I thought this particularly suited coolbeans.

[QUOTE="Frame_Dragger"][QUOTE="TwoFace-BS"][QUOTE="Frame_Dragger"]

Isn't this OCD bit just pure speculation though? It sounds as though he could act irrationally based on what MissL said about being trolled, without needing an underlying mental illness.

Not really,OCD isnt really a mental illness though.Its more of a...........condition? Kinda hard to explain

OCD is indeed a mental illness.... specifically an anxiety disorder... and it has diagnostic criteria. Obviously it can't be done over the net, but I'm curious as to what made people think he had it... odd thing to suss online without him saying it outright.

I came to the conclusion because people seem to be upsetting him by simply making sure his friends on GS numbers and people tracking him numbers were never the same according to MissL -Sounds like OCD to me,but Im only speculating

It's a disorder (hence the name). The distinction between mental illness and disorder seems to be widely debated and from knowledge, there is no concrete criteria on what constitutes a mental illness as opposed to a disorder.

[QUOTE="Seraphy-"]what does his mental condition even have to do with anything if he could get into the military, obv anything there might be isn't that badSeraphy-

A lot of things can happen while you're in the military. Some people don't come out the same way they went in.

true, but I don't see how anyone could come out with a condition such as OCD but I'm also not well versed regarding this subject, so w/e

People can cope with OCD but can have issues with it if the condition is being used as a target

Hrrmmmm... not sure I'd agree, although it's a bit odd to get so upset over tracking...

edit: Why don't we just ask Topse?

I have OCD when it comes to the cleanliness of my house.

You better damn well put a coaster under that glass.

I know he did things overseas, I'm not sure if he saw any action, though.

Action like I did, I mean.

If it helps, it's codified as a specific mental illness in the DSM IV (and will be in V), and by Euro standards...

[QUOTE="rawsavon"][QUOTE="BranKetra"] Those pms were a response to him insulting me in a way I found hypocritical. I just pointed it out. If I could notice that after a short time, other people probably notice it, too. It's better to deal with something like that sooner than later IMO. Unless you find a way to gain from a person being in such a state. Not you, personally. Seeing as that is what happened after that other mod got offended, I would say it was something before.

None of it 'bothered' me. I laughed at it/found it humorous. It just did not go like I thought it would...I figured things would have 'worked out' is all. But no big deal/hurt feelings on either side

I am not surprised at your reaction. No hard feelings.

Beans's planning to exploit issues such as the global economic crisis and the increase in world terrorism in order to instigate planet-wide chaos.

Edit: I thought this particularly suited coolbeans.

That makes me sound like a TDH regular. :(
