How is Albi not scooping the MIA Award?

Damn you all.

Unfaithful swine.

Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.

Is it Dave smith?
Gina Riley: Oh, come on, John. That’s a bit old hat, the corrupt IOC delegate.
John Clarke: Old hat? Gina, in the scientific world when they see that something is happening again and again and again, repeatedly, they don’t call it old hat. They call it a pattern.

What's an albi?
The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

Pigman indicates he’d gamble GH career to follow Jarryd Hayne to NFL

"For now, The GH is my future," Pigman said.

“I’ve had a good chat with my manager about it and [sic] if the opportunity did come up, it’s something I’d definitely like to pursue."

I actually hear Pigman is already a dual-sports forum superstar. Rumour has it he has 500,000 posts on at least two other forum to complement his ten million Greenhouse ones.

You're kidding, right?? In the time I've been on this forum you've easily racked up double my posts on your multiple accounts. And that's just on this forum alone!!

Glass houses indeed.

Actually the records will indicate that you've racked up 30, 000 posts since June 2012, I've got 1/3rd of that in only 1 year less. You're going at a clip of 10, 000 per year!
For me? Around half that.
You literally post twice for every post I make!
