You lost me

"No, there was a very specific reason why I chose that particular nickname. Look back on your flaps with No_Ax, and you might begin to get an idea of what I'm talking about."

I honestly don't know what you're referring to. Can you elaborate further?

"Now maybe you could explain to me why you're here doing what you're doing."

The exact same thing you are, no?

"You just sit here, making blatantly offensive posts, and ripping to shreds anyone who disagrees with you."

Actually I have not been doing that. Can you point to some posts (current ones, not ones from six months ago) where I display this behavior? What have I said that's so offensive? Show me where I "ripped someone to shreds" merely for not agreeing with what I've said?

"When you get banned, you jump back on with a different nick, and you even encourage the same behavior in other users!"

Again, point out a current post where I encourage "advanced trolling" please.

"What on earth are you trying to accomplish by all this?"

I think this question is better directed at you, my friend. After all, I haven't stated what my official stance is on ZDNet like you have ("to promote thought and discussion"), so I have nothing that I'm swaying from. You, however, claim to be here to promote thought and yet have had nothing to say to me except threatening to try to ban me again, asking what I'm doing, etc. And take note: I did not post anything to you recently that has been remotely offensive or trollish. And yet you saw me chatting with someone else, butted in, and basically started off with "I know it's you Bobby, and here are some of your past offensive posts", as though what happened months ago is so ultimately relevant to today.
So I ask: what are you doing here? You're certainly not promoting anything thought-provoking or relevant in my mind. In fact, you now seem to be this person that you claim to detest. You are attacking me (obviously it seems because of a chip you've kept on your shoulder from arguing with Bobby in the past), and yet I have done nothing to you. Care to answer my accusation?..
