I feel the need to post this both here and in response to the blog in which this idiocy was brought up again.
Quoting the head of the Skulliban in response to PST last time:
"We're done, you and I, but I have every right in the world to keep my blog and ROACH persona. I invented it, it's copyrighted. As are the personal photos you stole from me, by the way, which can be used against you in a court of law if you choose to pursue this ludicrous course of threats any more. I'm going to leave you the fuck alone, as you request."
Hmm. 'Twould seem someone's going back on their word. And since it's been a rarity for me to reach the piratical one as of late, when we DID speak, she has done NOTHING to antagonize you recently. Oh by the way o dutiful gatherer of information, wonderful reporting on a profile that hasn't been touch since a movie premier that you chose to write about that took place TWO MONTHS AGO. Late as a prom night aftermath period as ever I see.
As to your attempt to rile a response out of my friend PST, in regards to your paper gauntlet being dropped and your desire to latch onto the attention of others like an army of leeches, much like a deceased hooker buried in a chastity belt, she no longer gives a fuck! No blog response will be illicited, save for the legal variety in case of continued harassment. However, I DO feel compelled to reveal that the silence of Krampus being heard upon your forums? It was at the request of PST as not to further stir the brine as it were, so long as you left her and our collective friends alone. That's right, up until this point, you've had PST to thank for your respite from me. But since you've broken your claim and showing of even the slightest shred of honor you might be capable of to validate your word...*cheshire grin*
Edit: After speaking briefly with PST on the eve of honoring Veteran's Day, this is the only comment she will make. You spoke the last words to her in that blog. And she will NOT get involved in this any further.
As for myself, kudos for the retraction. And the fanship. But as for being the yang to your yin, my dear boy...why at this time would I wish to waste the good material on YOU!? Oh, you have a little shit on your chin...

May I make one request, Krampus?
ReplyDeletePlease desist from referring to me as the skulliban. You know my past as a military man and, all super-dickery aside, that's really crossing the line in terms of low blows.
I don't care what you post about The White Skull or ROACH, but leave my prior military service out of it, please.
I see no reason that we cannot at least be civil towards one another if we're going to be butting heads.
I understand completely. I too have a near and dear friend currently fighting in Afghanistan as we speak. If anything were to happen to her, I'd be distraught to my very essence. Normally I'd have no problem in honoring your request. However, there seems to be a problem. I call it as I see it. And I see propaganda. Quote:
ReplyDelete"The RLSH is more dangerous than most of you realize. As Real Life Supervillains, we must, we must keep at it, never let them breathe, never let them recover, always keep them wondering where our next blow will strike from.
"The worst thing we can do is let ourselves slip enough to the point that they no longer see us as a credible threat.
"To that end, I'm throwing the gauntlet. RLSH community, to include the little off-shoot groups such as the Skiffytown League and the Black Monday Society and even the Oracle Team (though their aim seems to be at incarcerating demons in mountains, they wear masks and brand themselves "heroes," so they're fair fucking game...) you are all on notice.
"All of you.
"ROACH is not going anywhere; we are here to stay and to frustrate your plans and your patrols and your charity events at every possible step. We will humiliate you publicly, we will make sure the authorities know exactly who you are and where you live so they can keep an eye on your borderline illegal vigilantism, and we will make you miserable to the extent that you give it UP.
"We will destroy you."
-The White Skull
Going after people at charity events, attempting to humiliate and/or destroy people. The likeliness of innocent civilians and children getting caught in the crossfire is quite likely. You're whipping impressionable minds into a frenzy to harass, humiliate, and to destroy people. Sounds like a terrorist cell to me.
So yes, I'd be happy to stop referring to you in the future as the Skulliban, Skull-Qaeda, Osama Skull Laden or any such nicknames I have a penchant for. But only as soon as you stop trying to instill terror onto others by activating cells against innocent targets. I'm not the one disrespecting the military.
YOU ARE.
Make things right and call off your attacks and I'll stop. But that's not to say you'll apologize, take down the other blog I'm quoting, then go away or keep quiet just to start this shit again a few months later. That's just acting like a sleeper cell waiting to be activated. Knock this threatening anything under the RLSH sun shit off, and I'll happily put the safety on my vocabulary.
I will not back down from my convictions that the vigilante community within the RLSH is dangerous and must be outed.
ReplyDeleteThat is conviction to an ideal that everyone can embrace.
As for innocent people being caught in the crossfire, just what is it you suppose this crossfire will be composed of? I'm not advocating driving around and shooting at people. I'm advocating the discrediting of the vigilante element within the RLSH and making them go away before they hurt someone. If someone wants to dress up in bright colors and organize blood drives and charity events, no one is going to speak against them.
However, if someone wants to dress up and go out on the street to impose some form of justice that they have no legal authorization to do so, that puts the larger citizen community at risk and must be dealt with. I.E., discrediting, exposing, and hounding into disbarment.
We've had our differences in the past (though I honestly don't see why, since you and I aren't really that different in our convictions of justice, only our methods,) but surely we can put them aside to fight a common enemy, the Master Legends, the Tothians, the Shadow Hares, the dangerously imbalanced of the community that gives us all pause and keeps us awake at night wondering when one of them will finally snap and put a billy club through someone's skull.
These are dangerous people we are dealing with and they must be identified and watched and have the proper authorities, those with actual legal authorization to do so, to deal with them.
If anything, ROACH is the kickass neighborhood watchgroup that every neighborhood needs.
I did mention charity events, though. You're right on that front, Krampus. Sometimes I whip myself into more of a frenzy than is called for and I gladly admit it. However, you must be able to see that, throughout the posts on ROACH's blog, there's been a recurring theme of disbanding the vigilantes, a sentiment which has been echoed more than once by the RLSH community itself.
ReplyDeleteSee, this is why I need a screener to read my posts before they go to the public. If I say something admittedly unwise such as going after charity events, they can push the edit button and keep me in check.
Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

The second you are placed in the position of leadership, you have the responsibility of the actions taken under your command, not just the praise and accolades given. After looking at your blog, it would seem I MIGHT have given you pause, and the need for correction. This of course is becoming a tiresome habit. One step too far, then another back. The Asshole Cha-Cha.
ReplyDeleteIf even ONE person were to be harmed simply by association by someone listening to you, you'd be just as guilty of the atrocities you claim to damn from the vigilantes. It's what I've told you from day one. If you wish to focus on the negative elements in the community, that's FINE. But you continue to overstep, then backpedal. This is a pendulum that threatens to put someone's eye out or cave in a rib if left unchecked.
It's a step in the right direction to call back the dogs of war. But to call for action and declaring war on EVERYONE in a costume one minute, then honing it back in and being specific with your targets the next? To butt heads with me one hour, then thank me for being your wake-up call the next? These are all things one should think out and process BEFORE acting. Are you my aspiring nemesis or my cheerleader? Pick a fucking side already!
I am neither your editor, nor your Jiminy Motherfucking Cricket! I do not have the same lack of memory of events a few months passing as the average wrestling fan has. I don not easily forget trespasses. Nor do I easily forgive them. If you want to be on my good side, you've got a LONG fucking way to go. You'd better start circumnavigating the globe now if you want to reach the end before your lifespan ends.
Krampus keeps a watchful eye out in case of both the same dangers you wish to point out from vigilantes, and the very same actions you yourself have eluded to countless times. You cloak yourself in the trappings of villain. I don't expect you to be a saint. But at least have the strength of your convictions. If you see a genuine injustice and don't like it? DO something about it! Contact the authorities, like I've had to do with you when it appeared that you threatened to cross the wrong line. Try having more substance in your word and deed than a leaf in the wind. And what about you retiring some time ago? It's simply my observation and opinion, but it seems that it was your ego that pulled you back to the forum on a permanent basis. Agreed, I may have made a false statement that I retracted and apologized so colorfully for that was the initial spark, but still. In our out, either way, close the door.
We are not friends. We are not allies. And where we MAY have the rare common goal of wishing to keep innocents from being harmed by the actions of an unsettled few, I will never waver in my resolve to make my own stand, to befriend those I wish, and to stand steadfast against those I see as bothersome or a genuine threat. Don't get your ego in a bunch, ROACH is an annoyance at best, but one that hides the potential for genuine harm to others at worst. Just as dangerous, if not moreso than any vigilante. It's because of the trappings of absurdity with the resolve of people that can be genuinely a threat to others that warrants such vigilance. You claim to wish to stop a threat. So do I. The problem is I see more of one from the actions of one more than others. You might recognize him, you'll find him in the mirror.
I'm sure I'll have more to say in the coming days, perhaps a sabbatical tomorrow to honor veterans close to myself and those I care for. But I have to look back and ask...when in the blue hell did the Anti-Santa become the voice of REASON!??
