To be fair though, every single element of your name is stolen from me... most of the plebs on here just don’t realise it though
To be fair to them, half of them dont really seem to realise we're different people!
And maybe we're not, maybe we're just different personalities of the same physical being

At least you have the power to change your pic. That dude with Brew looks like a failed audition for the Addams Family.

Has to be you. PigRick's pic is some ranga with Sticky. No Brew in sight.

Serves you right for changing your name to begin with.

.... although it was clearly the reason we made the GF.

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.

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.

I'd like to request to have Nickman's latest name change reversed.

Nothing in this thread that says we can't do that.

Don't do it. We had a guy who used to post under that name and he was a total jerk.

I'm not going to do it. Not for any good reason, but just as a deeply pathetic exercise of the tiny sliver of power that my green username gives me.
Honestly, I pity myself.
