Around here, the people who are calling others groomers are doing the grooming. It's emotionally charged.

I don't know what's bad about grooming. I get my head shaved, beard

I was not aware that the word "autistic" was a vulgarity. If it is, my ex-g/f sure did curse a lot more about her ex-husband, and also her
son, than I realized.

My parent's said I was borderline artistic, so they sent me to an art college.

Only way this one is bigoted is if someone is one and is offended.
Even then, it is only bigoted in their mind.

I have not seen that.

I have seen that. Most parents will get emotional if they think someone is "after" their child. Duh.

Following your logic, only members of racial groups can be offended by
racial slurs?

No, but a racial slur is a slur pointed at something the person was born
with (i.e. their race) and not something they decided to do. It also is
not criminal. Being a groomer is nothing like a race you are born into, it is something they decide to do, and is also criminal.

It would be interesting to know if he has actually set up a real bot program that does the counting. That could be an interesting mod, especially if you can configure what it counts.

I thought it WAS a real script. now i'm even more disappointed.
it just had a poor source of data, ie the timeframe on his bbs.

I didn't say it was not a script. I think such a script could have other applications that might be nice to have.

No, but I did see the one where a very masculine looking transwoman (looked sort of like a younger version of our current surgeon general) was
threatening, with violence, women who didn't want "her" in the restroom with their daughters. Supposedly, he got investigated and/or charged for terroristic threatening.

I also saw another video posted by a fully transitioned transwoman who said
she thought the person above was crazy and didn't represent most true
members of the community. I am sure they do not but it does show there are
at least a few who maybe need some sort of psychological assistance (but probably won't get it because their issues are more serious than gender disphoria).

Indeed.

When I am at my father's house on a Sunday morning, I usually wind up going
to church with them. They are Methodists. This Sunday, the pastor (who is Cuban) was preaching about something not really related but did bring this
up. His belief, and the belief of the church, is that the "created in his image" passages means that all humans are of one race.

He also went on to talk about how many of the things that society uses to divide people, including racism, are just that -- tools of division.

Something I have noticed is that many people from the word-soup brigade are actually trying to pick fights over it. They use their labels as an identifying factor. If they create an account in some web forum, the first thing they do is to write in their profile bio "I am a rainbow trans!" whereas everybody else (including LGBT+++ who are NOT picking fights) will have something normal. Such as "Hello, I am an accountant with a liking for COBOL and I am here to learn a lot about COBOL!"

He also went on to talk about how many of the things that society uses to divide people, including racism, are just that -- tools of division.

Yes and no.

Somehow the notion that race is not a thing is gaining ground despite the fact humans have been classified by anthropologists using more or less objective criteria for quite a long time. For that record, it is easy to tell my favourite mare has French ancestry because she has a bunch of traits that link her to the Bretons and most other horses around here lack.

I think dennying our differences rather than embracing them is an exercise in futility.

well i had a video where it would popup and show their mugshot and arrest for some of them. it's the older guys mostly. these videos have been scrubbed off the internet. I'd have to dig through my telegram channel or my own enormous file archives to find it.

I suspect we've heard of the last of The Millionaire. :-(

I know. :/ As the years go by more and more handles get retired.

Others have already weighed in here, but I just want to express my sadness and certainty that The Millionaire is probably no longer with us.

I got casually back into BBS'ing here at Vertrauen a year or two ago, and The Millionaire was reaching out to me directly (which I suspect he did often). He shared that he had been in an assisted-living or nursing facility, and his health had taken a dramatic turn for the worse with no sense that he would improve. If anything, he expressed a profound sense of loneliness and abandonment from his own family.

I suspect that for people who were already adults and working professionals in the 1970s and 1980s when BBS'ing as a hobby took off, they are now in their 80s and 90s, if not older, and we'll continue to see the same sort of trickle of long goodbyes.

i did have an experience where i showed this guy how to do doorgames and it really increased user activity. I killed 2 people in lord and he banned me.
he didn't realize that the game is about doing that and you get respawned.

Carhartt T-shirts are all I wear (except when visiting customers for meetings and such. I will wear them when working in a customer plant.)

They are my favorites...

They last forever, but get pocket rips if you keep your phone in there. Also they fade. So i have like 1000 faded shirts.

I don't want people knowing my favorite color!

Because it's mauve?

I thought it was salmon? ;)

I have THREE salmon shirts. All the cool kids these days wear salmon.

( I thought maybe black demin)

Yep... when that happens, I cut off the sleeves and wear them in the pool and to the beach.

There was a guy local to me that was my first experience on FidoNet.

This reminds me that I have completely lost touch with my original FidoNet guru. He was also older than me and lived in a nearby city. He was NC264 from the beginning of net 264 and I took it over from him probably around 1990 or so. I wish I knew how to connect with him again, if for no other reason than to say hello.

The entire fido archives (or a decent amount) are availble somewhere. I was able to read through some older posts that way, might have some leads for you.

If I had a pink shirt I would wear it and send you pics of me in it while Andrea kissed me. At the end of the day we'd all laugh and it would be a
fun time.

I'll never tell my favorite color.

We know it is black, because it matches your heart.

Do we even know if or where obituaries are even published where he lived/lives?

well because back then in the 90s people didnt talk about how they were gay all day. now everyone is gay and you can't talk about being straight.

i dont talk period and dont want other people to talk about their orientation. i don't want to see it, i don't want to hear it.

Well you can, but you'll become a meme if someone takes your pic, AND the people you tell you are "just straight" will look at you with disgust in
their eyes.

i dont talk period and dont want other people to talk about their orientation. i don't want to see it, i don't want to hear it.

This is how I feel. There are at least 1000 things wrong in the world
that are more important then your sexual orientation. How about we start worrying about some of those?
