Friday Q&A

Questionable Moderation

Hello again, crickets and trolls. Welcome to another edition of the Friday Q&A. It was an exciting week at Fark, and there were many interesting developments. I won't waste time with a bunch of idle ramblings here in the intro. Let's get right to the questions.

Q: What did you do during the Fark outages this week?

A: I've taken up knitting. Just two more outages and I'll have a sweater. I hope the rest of you are resisting the temptation to visit other websites. From what I can tell, they don't like Farkers very much. That's funny, because I don't really like other websites. Besides Blogger, of course.

Q: What's going on with TFD?

A: We're in the midst of a Totalfark Discussion thread crackdown. From the sound of this message , the Powers That Be are on the verge of revoking our discussion privileges entirely. To be honest, I don't think it will ever come to that. Sounds like the type of "I'll turn this car around" empty threat that parents use. TFD threads are really the only thing Totalfark has going for it, besides the ability to post early in PS contests. No one really cares to see a bunch of the same links over and over again. There's a whole subset of the community that rarely, if ever, leaves TFD. Chase them off, and eventually all you'll be left with is a bunch of pissy Totalfark PSers. The horror.

Q: Have you talked to TheSniperZERO lately?

A: As a matter of fact, I have. In our last chat, TSZ actually signed in with his own name. We had a lively discussion about how I'm a liar and nobody cares what I think. Then he proclaimed that I was BO'B and "a waste of time." I was just thankful he left my parents out of it. That was a few days ago, and he hasn't logged in since. Good riddance. I prefer to chat with friendly people.

That's all for this edition, gentle reader. I'm still hard at work on that new TSZ hate blog. You'll be seeing it real soon. Since it's nearly Christmas, take time to hug your family and tell them you need to borrow $5000 again. You're good for it.

Stay tuned for more holiday greetings from the Doctor!

There's a new post over at Fark the Vote. I'll respond to it here, since Boner's too much of a bitch to let anyone comment.

Boner whined...

Good Morning.
My name is HellYeahHokie.


And I'm Santa Claus.

I also go by the name Texaco Saves.

Suuuurre. Whatever you say, Boner.

At Fark you may know me as prufrock2 or Brian O'Blivion depending on which login I use.

Just shut up. No one believes you're any of these people.

Treading water there can be a tiresome endeavor.

Then just let yourself drown. Make it your xmas present to us.

Slowly drowning in the oceans of garbage submitted to photoshop contests on a daily basis.

What are you judging it by? The same high standards you hold yourself to, I hope.

Usually with time comes experience and skill, but unfortunately, that is not the case.

No shit. Just ask TSZ.

Thank god the elite photoshoppers like myself

Hahahahahahahaha! Boner, I had no idea you had such a sense of humor! This is a nice change of pace.

have the PSAEF, so that we can bitch and moan about liters and the unskilled.

Shouldn't you be cutting yourself or something?

HellYeahHokie said...

I have no idea why he included me in his poem.

I have no idea who Boner is, or why he's even part of this entire SniperZero flamewar.

He must have showed up sometime when I was not paying attention to this nonsense.

I don't think I've even made any reference to him before. So it's curious why he would include me on his blog in whatever that post was about.

The Photoshoptor Doctor said...

Boner's a moron. He showed up about two months ago, spamming the URL for Fark the Vote (too dumb to make a link, apparently) into the comment sections of both TSZ and I's blogs.

He thinks it's fun to post the O's for the upcoming PS contests, mainly out of his disdain for TFers. I'm not sure if any liters have ever actually seen his blog. Even if they did, the consensus is that it wouldn't matter.

I have a shitload of intel on "Boner," but I won't post it here, because he obviously reads this blog. Stop by the chat if you really want to hear it.

No thanks. I really don't give a rat's ass who he is. I don't even go to his site. I was just curious why he was using me in his poem.

Anonymous said...

He has no clue who boner is anyway. It would have been a waste of time.

The Photoshoptor Doctor said...

HellYeahHokie said...

I have no idea what his beef is with you. I assume it has something to do with the forum. He doesn't seem to like PSAEFers very much. He's railed against other forum regulars in the past.

TheSniperZERO said...

Shut up, TSZ. "Waste of time" seems to be the biggest rock you can throw at anything. Go plant a tree, asshole. You and your dickmonkey Boner are my hobby. Any time I spend fucking with you two is time well spent.

Thanks for commenting, though. It's always good to hear from a miserable shit-for-brains douchebag like you. I can't wait to read your next pathetic anon post.

See if you can string three sentences together next time.

So, you know who boner is but you are keeping it to yourself? Riiiiiight.

You don't have any proof. Just admit that you just want someone to talk with you in your chat room. What bullshit.

The Photoshoptor Doctor said...

So, you know who boner is but you are keeping it to yourself? Riiiiiight.

Thaaaat's riiiiiight, dickhead. And for your information, Boner's file is public record over at the VIP Clinic, just like yours.

You don't have any proof.

You mean like I don't have any "proof" that you keep leaving dumb anonymous comments, despite the fact that I know it's you every time? And you've finally given up and signed your dumb name to your trolling bullshit?

Just admit that you just want someone to talk with you in your chat room. What bullshit.

I already have you. Why would I want to chat with anyone else? Boner's not welcome there. He can go fuck himself. And so can you. DIAF, cocksucker.

Anonymous said...

As I said... you have no proof. It's a shame that we can see that classified file over at the non-existent VIP area. How unfortunate for the world, eh?

Tech toys said...

funny. I've got enough info on Boner to piece together his lame sad sack existence. Gotta love chat sessions.

Want to call me a fucking liar there to Snipe?

Anonymous said...

Then why won't you people come out and reveal Boner's identity? I say shit or get off the fucking pot. Stop saying that you know who he is and just come out with it.

Tech toys said...

aww little anonymous man is calling me a liar?
so sweet.
You know my email addy. Drop me a line.
Bitch.

The Photoshoptor Doctor said...

The SniperZERO said...

As I said... you have no proof.


Are you kidding me? I've got a damn mountain of proof.

It's a shame that we can see that classified file over at the non-existent VIP area.

Whuh? Oh, you probably meant to say can't see. It's a shame you're such a retard.

How unfortunate for the world, eh?

Yeah. Like when you were born.

Then why won't you people come out and reveal Boner's identity?


Why would I give you any info? You're a worthless piece of shit with a tiny lizard brain. It's not like you're capable of a rational interpretation of the facts.

I say shit or get off the fucking pot. Stop saying that you know who he is and just come out with it.

I say you're a bitchy control freak. Stop hurling orders in a situation that you have no control over, dickmunch. If I gave a shit what you think, I would have just told you in the chat.

And stop calling Bill a liar. You're the biggest fucking liar of all.

The Photoshoptor Doctor said...

I take it back. Boner's the biggest liar. He's left a nice steaming load for us over at Fark the Vote.

Boner said...

TSZ has a better all time average than BO'B, and other facts that set the record straight.


Yeah, we really give a shit about that. Ha. But since you want to be a dick about it, no he does not. Their averages are nearly identical. You should also keep in mind that BO'B has 73 wins to TSZ's 18. No comparison whatsoever.

In response to recent emails, I am not Brian O'Blivion or TheSniperZERO.

Oh please. No one thinks you're either of them. You fucking wish you were, loser.

I find their squabbles to be a comedic tragedy. Pitiful while captivating, they are both very sad people.

Try to cram a bigger stick up your ass when you say that. There's plenty of room.

I have never received an email that I have not responded to.

I wouldn't know, because I've never sent you an email. And I never will. I don't like to spam people. Sorry Boner.

I did not send Texaco Saves any obscene emails.

Since everything in this post is a LIE, I'm guessing you did.

I prefer to spend my time talking to people who actually submit to contests or matter in any way whatsoever.

I think you might even have room for a third stick up there.

I would not be surprised if another blogger did it so that they would have something to write about.

Please. You've been trying to feed us this "the Doctor is Boner" line of bullshit for two months. If I wanted to build an enemy, he'd be a lot better than you.

I post regularly to different Fark photoshopping forums and always to a warm reception.

Or so it would seem.

So apparently the claims that people knew my identity were either a lie, or they themselves are so insignificant that I did not notice.

Or we're having too much fun watching you twist in the wind.

I have also never emailed El Chode or M-j. Whoever emailed that accusation to me has not returned my email.

Honestly, Boner. I've gotten Nigerian 419 scams that were more fluidly written than this tripe. "I have never sent an email. Whoever emailed that email was emailing a lie in email form." That's what you sound like to me.

As for the emails that you emailed, I don't know anything about them. You've never sent anything to my Yahoo address. Fucking coward.

HellYeahHokie said...

But since you want to be a dick about it, no he does not. Their averages are nearly identical. You should also keep in mind that BO'B has 73 wins to TSZ's 18. No comparison whatsoever.

Well, BO'B has more than 3 times as many entries as TSZ. Bob does have a marginally higher winning percentage though, but it's not like there's no comparison.

HellYeahHokie said...

I have no idea what his beef is with you. I assume it has something to do with the forum. He doesn't seem to like PSAEFers very much. He's railed against other forum regulars in the past.

Maybe, but I'm hardly one of the elitists at Fark. I'm always one who defends Fark as a place where both the supremely talented and the no-talented shoppers can coexist. There are plenty of sites for elitist shoppers. I'm glad Fark provides a different option.

Anonymous said...

You aren't answering the question. What is holding you back from revealing his identity? You don't know it. But, I'll play your little game for a second and humor you.

Is it because you went to Drew with an IP address and "other proof" of the identity of our favorite masked man and he won't do anything about it?

Is it because of the fact that you are anonymous that you have ZERO credibility?

Is it because you are bluffing and have no clue who I am?

Or is it because no one but you care? Think about it. Technically, all the guy has done is taunt you and post images from upcoming contests that are posted all over the internet. Truth be told, it hasn't had an impact on Fark and there is no doubt in my mind that Drew doesn't care. He would rather see that $60 a month from Boner than ban him over a blog that no one but you reads.

And, while you say you have never posted the link to his site, you have it listed on your sidebar. Yes, it goes to one of your 2 dozen fake blogs, but it doesn't take a genius to figure out the real site address and modify it in their address bar.

You're a barking dog with no bite. You're a sex addict suffering from erectile dysfunction.

The only thing you can do about boner's site is post a rebuttal that no one asked for. He's not taunting anyone but you and you are playing into his game like a rat is drawn to peanut butter on a mousetrap.

Anonymous said...

And before I give you the chance to pick apart a typo, I know that it's $60 a year.

BTW, the fact that people come to the site (totalfark or otherwise) gives Drew advertising revenue. He's not going to ban people willy-nilly because of some retard with a grudge.

TheSniperZERO said...

Nothing, except that it seems to drive you crazy. If it doesn't affect you, then why do you spend 18 hours a day trolling my blog?

You don't know it. But, I'll play your little game for a second and humor you.

You play my game every second of your miserable life. How's that working out for you?

Is it because you went to Drew with an IP address and "other proof" of the identity of our favorite masked man and he won't do anything about it?

I haven't "gone to Drew" with anything, you sanctimonious prick.

Is it because of the fact that you are anonymous that you have ZERO credibility?

Walk me through this. Why would I not have any credibility just because I'm anonymous? You seem to have ZERO logic, you shit-for-brains.

is it because you are bluffing and have no clue who I am?

I know exactly who you are, and I always have.

Or is it because no one but you care?

Nice grammar. You're stupid.

Think about it. Technically, all the guy has done is taunt you and post images from upcoming contests that are posted all over the internet.

No, he posts images from upcoming contests that are available only to Totalfarkers. Images he obtained from TF, not "everywhere on the Internet."

Truth be told, it hasn't had an impact on Fark

No shit. I can't imagine a way that it ever would.

and there is no doubt in my mind that Drew doesn't care.

What the hell do you know what Drew thinks? You stupid asshat.

He would rather see that $60 a month from Boner than ban him over a blog that no one but you reads.

Ok, first of all, TF doesn't cost 60 bucks a month, retard. Second of all, you're a retard.

And, while you say you have never posted the link to his site, you have it listed on your sidebar. Yes, it goes to one of your 2 dozen fake blogs, but it doesn't take a genius to figure out the real site address and modify it in their address bar.

Then how did you figure it out?

You're a barking dog with no bite. You're a sex addict suffering from erectile dysfunction.

Funny, I was going to say the exact same thing about you. Except in your case, you'd have to have something like sex at least a couple of times in your life to be considered an "addict." And your mom doesn't count.

The only thing you can do about boner's site is post a rebuttal that no one asked for.

He asked for it. And you have no idea what I can do. Both of you are very lucky I'm a nice guy.

He's not taunting anyone but you

Yeah, I'm going to need you to go ahead and reread those posts. Boner seems to taunt everyone who isn't him. And he does it badly.

and you are playing into his game like a rat is drawn to peanut butter on a mousetrap.

Nice mixed metaphor. You're one to talk. About playing games anyway. You've been jumping through my hoops since day one. You're the most ignorant and predictable human I've ever encountered. Good luck with all that.

TheSniperZERO said...

And before I give you the chance to pick apart a typo, I know that it's $60 a year.


If you know it so much, then why did you say some other shit? Is it because you're the stupidest waste of life on this planet? I think so!

BTW, the fact that people come to the site (totalfark or otherwise) gives Drew advertising revenue. He's not going to ban people willy-nilly because of some retard with a grudge.

That's right. He doesn't care about people going off site to violate Fark TOS. These days he has bigger fish to fry. At any rate, you fail here for using the term "willy-nilly." Oh FSM, how you fail.

Anonymous said...

You are an idiot. Thanks for proving again that you can't read. Show me where he is technically breaking the TOS?

"Text comments, AudioEdit submissions, and Photoshopped images posted on Fark by registered users may not be reposted or broadcast without the express written permission or license from Fark.com, and must attribute Fark.com as the source."

This doesn't refer to 'O's. This refers to photoshopped images by Farkers. Fark doesn't have a hold on O's that they don't own.

"The content on Fark.com, except all Submissions (defined below) is owned by or licensed to Fark.com, subject to copyright and other intellectual property rights under the United States and international intellectual property laws and conventions."

An image grabbed from another site is not Fark's property.

"Content on Fark.com is provided for personal use only and may not be used, copied, reproduced, distributed, transmitted, broadcast, displayed, sold, licensed, or otherwise exploited for any purpose without the prior written consent of the respective owners."

This refers to Text & photoshops. Again, not images found elsewhere on the internet.

"You agree to not engage in the use, copying, or distribution of any of the content other than expressly permitted herein, including any use, copying, or distribution of Submissions of third parties obtained through the Fark.com website for any commercial purposes."

Boner's site isn't commercial. The rest of the TOS is irrelevant to this subject. Awaiting your meaningless rebuttal.

The Photoshoptor Doctor said...

Sorry Hokie, I almost didn't see your comments under all of TSZ's trollspam.

HellYeahHokie said...

Well, BO'B has more than 3 times as many entries as TSZ. Bob does have a marginally higher winning percentage though, but it's not like there's no comparison.


Still, I would chose BO'B 73/652 over TSZ's 18/149 any day of the week. To me, Bob gets bonus points for contributing 652 times instead of 149 or whatever. No one ever enjoyed a photoshop that wasn't posted.

HellYeahHokie said...

Maybe, but I'm hardly one of the elitists at Fark.


Not even close. Thank you for that, BTW.

I'm always one who defends Fark as a place where both the supremely talented and the no-talented shoppers can coexist.

And learn. From each other even!

There are plenty of sites for elitist shoppers. I'm glad Fark provides a different option.

THIS. And I'll gladly bash any jackoff that wants to chase off the less talented and experienced. Especially if it's done under the auspices of "making Fark better," whatever the fuck that means.

Thanks for proving again that you can't write. Not that we needed any more proof.

Show me where he is technically breaking the TOS?

Oh shit. Now you're in lawyer mode.

"Text comments, AudioEdit submissions, and Photoshopped images posted on Fark by registered users may not be reposted or broadcast without the express written permission or license from Fark.com, and must attribute Fark.com as the source."

A PS contest O is technically a text submission. The text just happens to contain html.

This doesn't refer to 'O's. This refers to photoshopped images by Farkers. Fark doesn't have a hold on O's that they don't own.

O's and PSed images are under the same umbrella. While Os may not be owned by Fark, once they are approved and enter the queue, they become Totalfark content. Which can not be reposted.

"The content on Fark.com, except all Submissions (defined below) is owned by or licensed to Fark.com, subject to copyright and other intellectual property rights under the United States and international intellectual property laws and conventions."

An image grabbed from another site is not Fark's property.


Not until it becomes part of the Totalfark queue.

"Content on Fark.com is provided for personal use only and may not be used, copied, reproduced, distributed, transmitted, broadcast, displayed, sold, licensed, or otherwise exploited for any purpose without the prior written consent of the respective owners."

This refers to Text & photoshops. Again, not images found elsewhere on the internet.


Wrong. Content refers to all link submissions. Including those for greenlit PS contests.

"You agree to not engage in the use, copying, or distribution of any of the content other than expressly permitted herein, including any use, copying, or distribution of Submissions of third parties obtained through the Fark.com website for any commercial purposes."

Boner's site isn't commercial. The rest of the TOS is irrelevant to this subject.


Damn, I don't know what's worse, that boiler plate or your mindless drivel. What am I saying? Anything involving you is always the worst. Just because the site isn't commercial doesn't give someone the right to break the rules. Damn you're stupid.

Awaiting your meaningless rebuttal.

And I, in turn, will be awaiting your next rambling diatribe. DIAF.

How do you think they appear, asshole? Fark doesn't host images. So to make a picture show up, you have to type the TEXT of the URL. Idiot.

You're saying I'm wrong, but you are making statements contrary to the written word of the TOS.

You are wrong, dickhead. Text comments and pictures are the same thing in terms of the TOS.

You're just making shit up at this point.

You have a penis. There, I made something up.

Why can't you admit you're wrong?

Since you're 100% sure I'm wrong, what's to stop you from going to the PSAEF and asking a mod? Go ahead, I'll wait. If a mod in that forum tells you it's ok to post the Os in an offsite blog, I'll deposit a hundred bucks into the paypal account of your choice. That's good money, Snipey. More than fifty times what your mom charges for a blowjob.
