Okay, Bond, let's have this conversation. The rest of you can read this, too.

It has reached my ears that apparently, a great many of you are convinced that I think you are idiots.
You may rest assured that you have nothing to worry about. As has been noted before by others, I try to let everyone know exactly what I think of them at any given time. If I think you're an idiot, I have fucking let you know. If there is any doubt in your mind about my opinion of you, either assume that you have left no lasting impression in my mind (unlikely), or drop me an e-mail.
(If you have a decent enough impression of yourself that what I think of you doesn't matter to you one way or the other: good. That's as it should be. But I have been hearing through intermediaries that a lot of you appear to think that I will smite you with thunderbolts if you dare approach me, which is frankly untrue.)
The exceptions here are Bond and Gengen. Gengen, I have aired my issues with you at just and copious length. I have no intention of doing so again, save this: stay the fuck out of my sight.
Bond, you have just posted on the Ballad. Your post includes this sentence:
"Hi. For the four of you who may not know me, I'm the annoying kid that everybody hates yet you can't get rid ofTM."
Look, fuckaround, the fact that you can make that statement should've been your first god damn warning sign. I thought of you as a particularly annoying, obsequious fanboy before the infamous C-Ko's incident, which, as I've mentioned, I caught hell for, because MOT and QS are tangentially affiliated.
Your actions between then and now have, thankfully, been largely outside of my perception. Good move. But now you post on the Ballad, basically flaunting the fact that you are the cancer on the ass of any community you soil with your presence?
If you had the common sense and capacity for self-analysis of half a ton of peat moss, you'd've realized that a statement like that is not cute, or funny. It is, in fact, vaguely pathetic if it is true by half.
I can't speak for anyone in Quasispace, obviously. But for myself, I can say this: realize that the statement you have made contains more than a grain of horrible, obvious truth. Perhaps others are too polite to tell you this, but from where I'm sitting, you are apparently here because you enjoy the abuse. You are the annoying kid who, for whatever reason, won't leave.
