I think ehf is right in that there wasn't a lot of demonstrable malpractice, by and large plinkey operated the fund as the thread expected him to, trouble is he could not for the life of him stop being a loving rear end in a top hat

One of Plinkey's actual friends spoke up and said that he purposefully gave smarxist wrong info, because it was funny.

smarxist would be semi normal one day and then the next he would be screaming and raging at some random poster and throwing very personal attacks at them and no one would know what the gently caress his problem was lol what a weird guy

I cannot recall a single person who actually liked smarxist. Like he did a bunch of work setting up Bread 'n Roses and got thrown out immediately.

theres a recurring trump thread image that has all of the lovely permabanned posters they want freed and smarxist isnt even on it lol

he had the very rare flash of absolute posting brilliance that kept him in the game. I think my single favorite thing was that after getting tossed out of b&r face first into a pile of horse dung like a saloon drunk his first reaction was to try to cozy up to fyad of all folks

My thoughts on that were always "i believe youre doing this right but you HAVE to understand that saying "just trust me bro" isnt bulletproof and will invite suspicion" and this like insanely common sense and good faith interpretation got labeled as lying chudery and malicious sealioning or whatever the gently caress. What a hoot!

I just remember him being aggressively, self-assuredly wrong about everything. It was uncanny because he wasn't ever right about anything even by accident.

that time smarxist was made IK of one of the cspam chat threads as a joke so he could probe his posting enemies and he just whined and wouldnt do anything until the buttons were taken away lol

If the only place you ever saw him was in the live threads in the wrestling forum he was just a guy who posted funny screengrabs a few seconds after they happened. Everywhere else he was absolutely insane

I can't figure out if this part is funnier than the fact that they made CascadeBeta an admin over there and she proved to be exactly as much of a nightmare as you'd think, but the "hasta siempre" post pushes it over the line

smarxist is a lot more understandable when you know that his most burning desire was to be a lauded champion of the underdogs and as such would identify whatever the most alienated and shat upon people or perspective was at any given moment and ride in, blazing sword in hand like gandalf in lotr or something
