this is fucking dumb. I'm supposed to bare all ills of the forum in a maoist inquisition process yet the hippie with his poxy energy fields and everyone else can hijack this thread to talk about arcades. we've had a needless escalation of tensions between me and barty over pm, something that wouldn't have happened if we all came together to collectively discourage the behaviour that encourages tom and jerry. but hey easier to shit on one persons weaknesses (and i have many) than collectively hold each other to account. whatever.
