More re FourthBase

Received this from compared2what?. She's given permission for me to share here:

You know that harmonious "Women of the World" thread? In particular, the part where Fourthbase respectfully told me I needed "some metaphorical deep-dicking" because I didn't enjoy the compliment of being assigned the role of world ruler/savior, given that I wouldn't accept that assignment as a gift?

I don't know that it's fair to call that assertion a veiled threat of sexual violence, given that it was made in such a physical-contact-free environment. I'd be very frightened if someone said it to me in person, for sure. Whether merely forcing the image into my mind crosses the line or just comes very close to it, I honestly and candidly don't know.

What do you think? I like Fourthbase. And I recognize that there's insecurity underneath that bluster. And I'm sympathetic to it. But not to the point that I don't mind having my perceived errors corrected with a little metaphorical penetration by hard foreign objects. I do mind that. It raises the ghost of an alarm I don't really need to hear more of. However, that might be something it's my responsibility to address, not his or yours. I can't tell. I don't know. Help! Also, please advise.


And please, likewise.

I don't know what FourthBase has been doing this week. Is it a situationalist performance? He seems to be entertaining himself by yanking a lot of chains. I want to resist the temptation to impulsively yank back.

what's the RI record for most posts in one 24 hour period?

I think it's called a manic episode...
I shouldn't count the posts in bold, as they are technically for the 13th of September, but...

If it's a performance, it's a poor one.

How many farts must we endure from this persona until we are all gasping for air? Go ahead and do a search for "FourthBase" and "fuck" or "fucking" or "fuck you", it's quite ill-uminating.

Obviously this person is troubled and stressed to the point of sharing his childhood rape stories (assuming one can believe anything anyone says on the internet),but I've found the last few days of his posts alarming.
Lots of judgement, insults, name-calling and coarse talk this week.
Maybe he misses fighting with thekultleeder, I dunno.

I was concerned about him this summer when he dropped off the board for a month or two and sent him a message checking in, but I am not enjoying his return.

If it was my house, I'd turn off his juice for a few days, but I am a hothead, so I defer to Jeff's better judgment.

Late yesterday out of the blue, he sent me his e-mail address "just in case". I'm concerned for him and have been since his what I like to call 'invincible thread' of a couple of weeks ago. Then the right-up-to-the-edge violent rhetoric toward HMW.

I'm with annie, I think he's in a manic phase and should probably be treated with kid gloves, as much as possible. He can't actually hurt anyone here but we sure as hell could hurt him if we are not careful.

Totally slipped my mind. Thanks for the reminder.

Paying attention now.
