I've compiled a timeline of how this thread unraveled, so we can all see who is problematic and causing the issues.


A thread that wasn’t toxic, and wasn’t discussing anything important.


Req started a good, on topic conversation.

16 posts from Req, Gerd, Derrick, Blackhole, Ko, and Primeeval. All without insults. All without toxicity. And very productive.


Coalie insults Gerdler.

TC defends Gerdler.

Ko calls TC a cheater.
Coalie calls TC a cheater.
Derrick and Syko exchange a few on topic posts.

Smiley Face insults LaF.

TC and Coalie exchange insults.

Derrick pleads for everyone to stop fighting.
I plead for Coalie to stop the insults. I invoke Derricks name to point out who started it to him.

Sui and Coalie insult Gerdler and me.

I ask, again, for them to stop. Specifically asking Sui to stop.

Derrick and Ko exchange silly posts.

Sui calls me an idiot and other stuff.
I ask a question to him, and am now defending myself.

Coalie, Ko, Derrick, and Geta tell me to STFU.

Then Doug posts.
