Poll of the Day > I miss Arctic

(+) Yeah! (+)

Haha just kidding fuck that guy

where he at
---

lmao
---

i'm still not entirely sure what happened with him, ok?

that was during my year-long break from potd. i remember he was having some anger and alcohol issues before i took off too.
---

I just checked, his account is still around. I wasn't sure whether or not he closed it. But he hasn't logged in for over a year so I guess he kept his word

Those p much exacerbated when his father passed.

wow it's been over a year already?
---

He was always secretly an asshole with some crazy misanthropic views. People only liked him because he made up a bunch of goofy British-sounding phrases

More or less

He had truly reprehensible views and anger in abundance

With that, he had a huge racist, and anger filled meltdown on here
Feel sorry for the guy that his dad passed, but no reason to go off the deep end on us.

I remember him attacking RC
I mnow he did attack others, but I dont remember who else he attacked. But I know there was others

I did think it was funny when he said he was gonna punt SMT's son tho

Attacked Jen, me, SmokeMassTree, Kana, I think someone else...
---

yeah he attacked rc, me, kanakiri.. and then just anyone who came in to comment against him
---

damn! i wonder how he avoided getting banned...
---

Yeah didn't they only suspend him, and warn his alt account?
---

i think he got put in purg and then he came on his alt saying he didn't care he was leaving anyway and that got warned
---

Something like that

I feel like the mods went easy on him cause he was in a dark time in his life. Still no excuse for his behaviour, but banning him could have caused suicidal thoughts in him the way he was spiraling out
---

He was mistreated because he was not a woman.

Speaking of accounts that inexplicably never get banned

I wish I was broken enough to go on an angry drunken rant so future posters would wax poetically about me.

u do, tho, ok?

i was gonna say you've never heard me but then I remembered that video I made

i dont have an accent

You have a Murican accent

even then, it's normal

it's not like a Kentucky or jersey accent

like I got really offended about that

i've also watched a couple of your shitty streams when you were playing fallout 4, ok?

literally everyone has an accent, ok?

i have one, you have one (that's shitty), everyone has one, ok?

i never talked in any streams i did

i dont remember ever streaming fallout either

i was chatting during the stream, and told you to talk after you were being silent, ok?

this was back when you weren't a shitty husk of your former-self, and semi-fun to interact with, ok?

and you did stream fallout 4, it's not my fault your memory is shitty, ok?
---

I felt bad for him. it was obvious he was having a mental break down and nobody but me cut him any slack. I knew him for years and he never said a single racist thing before that day. I don't think he actually believed what he was saying. he had lost his sanity. I hope he is ok now

I'm not so sure he was a racist so much as he would say anything to get a rise out of people. His day-to-day posting didn't even disparage Muslims despite the UK having major issues with them.

He once threatened to strangle me, but that was before the last blowup.

They typically don't just ban long-time posters, they give a lot of warnings and suspensions first. I'm not sure his treatment was any different than normal.

@Zeus makes some good points, everyone, ok?

if you agree with @Zeus, quote this post, and let him know we support his opinion, ok?

Better things like living off whatever the British equivalent of welfare is and living with his mother at age 40

yeah. he was openly proud about receiving government entitlements and being an alcoholic spending his government money on booze.. not working.. and living with his mom.

I think you know what I mean... subtly, intermittently, whatever you want to call it.

From the sounds of it his parents had a lot of money. I remember him saying that he basically had an entire part of the house to himself, or possibly even a separate building. Though that probably doesn't mean much since I believe Koga is in a similar arrangement and his parents don't sound very well-off.

Also he hated working and thought he was above it or some shit. Get over yourself, buddy, that's how the majority of the population feels

in his own mind he was an unappreciated artist writer and was above working because he was destined to write

or some such bs

They wasn't all made up to be fair. However your not wrong in the sense I like him because he's British. That's not the only reason but it's one of them at least.

That was hilarious. It really did amuse me how much he got and still is under some of the posters here skin. I only wish he could see this shit. I know it would make me feel happy inside.

It was kinda funny how he tried to come back after a couple days on an alt and everyone was like nah buddy you can stay gone

To his credit, he actually didnt come back after that, to my knowledge

I missed this

He also pointed out that all of potd are peasants compared to him

If anyone is keeping in touch with him, bring him back, to keep PotD from dying.
