Oh, I kinda vaguely remember that.
--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

I have an account, and shit was going wrong with the servers so I had to register on 421 instead of 420. I USED to post machines there every week like here but kinda stopped. I should do it again!

I finally got back on there and made a reply I told him told tell his full side of the story if interested. ( I stayed away from insults, as I actually do wanna hear what he has to say) I told him to reply here, in my journal there...
If you need to be logged in to view it, let me know and I can copy/paste his reply, if he does

Yea, it requires that I make an account and log in. If you could copy/paste that would be great. Thanks.

I spend far far too much time on the shroomery as it is, I couldn't possible consider being part of any other online community.

I would speculate that the mods there don't want you talking about it because legend is back to selling/trading illegal substances. Only it's allowed over there.

Is it just me or do you (Burke) enjoy exclusively the political aspect of the site? It seems like every single post I see from you has something to do with power struggles, politics and forum scandals or some kind, no just day to day chill posts like most others exclusively do.
Not judging just curious, do you see it the same way? You are almost like a meta-poster, who only posts about posting, posters, moderators etc.

Basically he's just a shit talker.

Those are good observations, moonshoe, ones that have not gone unconsidered by myself. The short answer is "no", I post about a lot of stuff. If you examine my posts, you'd see that today I made the one you addressed and one about agreeing that Alice In Chains is the best 90s band. So it'd be fair to call it a 50/50 split.
There are some other things at play here though that do validate your statements, no question. If you take a look to the left of the screen, you'll note my embarrassingly large post count. That should show you that I've exhausted a lot of my enjoyment with the idle chit-chat aspect. I now post a lot about what happens here. Meta-posting, as you call it. I come here and hardly see the place for its individual posts and threads, but I have a pretty good understanding of the site's happenings and machinations. I have been accused of having a flair for the dramatic, and tend to get reeled in to the more Shakespearean/Machiavellian type stuff that goes on. I post about what amuses me, and the site, on a macro level, does. I'm no longer as enamored with sharing my life and such here; I've made some great friends through the shroomery and will likely not make many more.
Bitter Cactus can call it "shit talking", but have you seen his posts? He's got it worse than I do, he just hasn't been here as long.

You and Bitter Cactus are very different creatures, no question.
As perhaps the foremost expert on shroomery politics, can you offer a succinct summary of some of the finer points for a naive poster like me?
How has the sites politics changed over time, are things getting better or worse, what are the main power struggles and problems?

If I could even do it, that's something I'd have to think about for a little bit. If I'm able to come up with a good answer for you, I'll post here and pm you a link. I'll need to consider this for a little while though.

Yeah seems to me if you took your time it would make a great and interesting thread.
I do wish you hadn't abandoned us in WCA. Your presence is missed.

It wouldn't be a very interesting thread, I'll just post here. Or maybe I'll just straight pm it to moonshoe. I don't know yet.
