Within the game, there's a pre-existing mentality and atmosphere that's sort of foisted upon us from the onset - and it shapes you. The game does create monsters. I remember telling him pretty early on that he should be careful what he says and who he trusts (including myself), but what else can you do? It doesn't really excuse what he did.
Outside of that? No. He was a bit of a creeper from the start - bumping old topics with no real rationale (and very inappropriate ones at that) and just being generally abrasive at every turn. He actually became much better over time in that regard, though.
Ahh, ok. But how abrasive? I wasn't really paying too much attention a few months ago.  |

Like, our own monstrosity? Come on, a lot of people talked about him behind his back in a negative manner. How can we know that he didn't find out about it, then be set off by it? This doesn't excuse his disgusting behavior, but it would most certainly explain some of it.
I don't think so. I just reread the big thread with all the PMs (I saved it and uploaded it to Google Docs because I still had it open in a window after it was deleted and someone was asking to see it). He doesn't sound like he was set off by anything. It's like he's just having a normal conversation with someone and in the middle of a paragraph would as an aside say something to the effect of, "...and [name], who is a complete dumb[Inks] by the way, wouldn't support this bill because..." And there's also the fact that most of the people he targeted had never said anything about him, and never had any reason to- aside from like three people he kept his insults pointed mostly at younger people participating at the lower rungs of Atlasia. And also I don't really understand how you can be "set off" by something for like five/six months nonstop. Well he was never quite liked, at least on the Atlas Chat. Consistent back talking and the fact that thirteen year olds are emotionally immature (and thus more sensative), he may have taken the sentiment too seriously, thus setting off.... I don't have the exact dates of the PM's but they can be approximately dated via his references to Atlasian candidacies and elections and such. He sent most of his inflammatory/offensive PMs before he ever entered the chatroom and well before he was notorious enough to be mentioned by someone,and there's never really a change in tone at any point from what I can tell. Besides, viciously insulting other people through PMs because someone had offended him in IRC makes even less sense than insulting other people through PMs because someone had offended him via PM. Really? So he sent these PMs before there was any talk about his potential banning (when everyone was talking about his age and stuff) ? |
