      Thanks, I can see what you mean. Sundance’s escalation of assuming Polk was going nuclear was so confusing, followed by even more confusion with Polk then confirmed he was going nuclear. It was almost like they were speaking in a foreign language, what with the amount of baggage that must have predicated that conversation.

        @Jumpscare Shame they broke up. They deserve each other.

            This is your classic example of intense insecurity coupled with entitlement.

            This used to be me, so I can’t help but feel a little sorry for him.

            He’s still a shit, though.

              I just got on MuHaven and I’m a bit lost. I was told Polk was talking there and I can’t find anywhere he’s spoken.

              Can anyone point me in the right direction, if there is a right direction?

                Flips out and rage quits that Discord server for his friend not being able to make a transphobic ‘joke’ that multiple people were offended by.

                Flips out and rage quits Liberation for someone he dislikes making a very clearly sarcastic unoffensive joke about kinfolk.

                Is this dude for real?

                  I’ve known Theno for a very long time. We don’t get along overly well, but I trust him to be professional about the important stuff.

                  He’s many things, but he ain’t Polk.

                    @Evilgrayson I mean, Theno got kicked off of MSB staff back in the day for abusing his access to private user information. I wouldn’t trust him with important stuff.

                    Although I do think he gets a ton of mileage from being “the WoD code guy” and agree that he’d be less likely to do this specific thing Polk did, if only for the sake of his reputation.

                      disagree it wasn’t an offensive joke. It was backwards and deeply unfunny, which is the most offensive thing a joke can be.

                          I think he stopped worrying about people seeing his hypocrisy a long time ago. Values and integrity aren’t worth nearly as much as weaponizing outrage. It seemed like he’s been waiting to use something to try to take Theno down a peg and he wasn’t really getting anything. So he grasped for the first thing that seemed to be viable.

                          He took his shot at Theno and missed. I guess weaponized outrage doesn’t have the accuracy or damage that it used to. The stats on that might need to be updated in errata.

                            @Roz The times I’ve interacted with Theno as staff in the past, there were occasional ironic jokes and some sarcasm, but that kind of thing doesn’t bother me. No bad interactions on the level of what we saw recently.

                            It’s surprising to me and somewhat alarming that they would misuse player info though. What happened? I thought Theno is the one that started/owned MSB back in the day after the WORA days.

                              @Cygnus I don’t know anything about Theno other than his name attached to WoD code stuff. Others have mentioned he’s not so great?

                              What’s the issue with him?

                                  Exactly what she said. He used his admin privs at MSB to look at hidden info so he could talk shit about it/ a poster.

                                    That’s a really weird thing to do; it’s not like there’s much info that’s collected. I sure couldn’t have used any of it to talk shit about anyone.

                                      @Pavel it was the era of downvotes, when no one could see who specifically had downvoted them. Except admin.

                                          Theno worked alongside EmmahSue and Glitch. Glitch is the one who actually got the forums up and running w ES. Theno joined them very, very early on.

                                          Glitch actually is the one providing our domain for BMD and helped me debug a launch issue getting BMD up. He has long been a more or less quiet community backbone.
