There's actually a point there, though. There was an early era of K-Punk, mostly on the early Blogger version before he upgraded to a plusher platform, which some of us engaged with more and coincided with the energy peak of the blogs, Summer-Autumn-Winter of 2003-4 basically. It was a more exploratory phase, using the format for creativity and communication. Then he converted his blog into a philosophical and political project and attempted to co-opt this board into that scheme too, which is when he found some resistance. To an extent he was trying to get the forum to achieve its intellectual potential, but another side of it was puritanical, even tyrannical: the Dope Smoking Dads needed to get with the programme or be eliminated. K-Punk enjoyed a good purge.
