All these haters here talking shit about my boy UlyssesT long after he left the site. Where was this energy when he was still around lmao

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 month ago

Probably trying to avoid drawing his attention given the kinds of behaviors everyone was clearly quietly upset about.

It was there but Ulysses would just get really hostile with those people till they blocked him.

I was actually an early UT hater, I think I was one of the first he accused of "stalking" him. That was under a previous account tho.

I used to think that was just him being paranoid until I actually saw him get harassed by 6 alts from someone. And the really funny thing was I was about to say that he shouldn't be so paranoid about having a stalker before deciding against it. I guess it turned out he actually did have a stalker. It's either that or someone from that thread decided to mess with him, basically turning his paranoia into a self-fulfilling prophesy.

He was, for a time, the most active user on this rather small insular forum. His accusations of "stalking" strike me as weird because how do you stalk someone in such a small community. Being the most active user it was hard to avoid interacting with him unless you blocked him. In fact the time he accused me of stalking him I hadn't even realized it was him I had replied to, I just replied to a comment without even noticing it was under his user name.

If people were shitty to him that sucks but he responded by being shitty to anyone he had even the most mundane disagreement.

Also it's a bit contradictory to ask why his haters were so silent till he left, but then blame his paranoia on the activity of his haters.

Yea accusing somebody of stalking you when you have multiple comments in every single thread and are a power user on a site with a 5 digit user count feels a lot like when other instances accuse us of "brigading" by commenting on things on the top of the feed.

To quickly nip it in the bud, I want to say that I don't actually care about how other people see him. Me saying that I'll forward this thread to him is just me joking. I'm not actually going to forward this thread to him. By all accounts, he's not coming back. He's moved on with his life. To be serious for a moment, I think the haters who are still mad about UlyssesT and not hate-reminiscing him should move on as well since I'm 100% sure he probably doesn't even remember you at this point. I think I'll edit that line out since I got a feeling some people will take it as if I were being serious.

Like one of his haters said in this thread, liking UlyssesT posting is itself a treat, and I'm not treatbrained enough to care about how other people see a treat that I like.

The people hate-reminiscing only really show up when others start reminiscing about him. Being a bit put off by the fact that a lot of people fondly remember someone who was a massive dick to you is a pretty natural human reaction.

I agree, love or hate him, he is gone it's a bit weird we're having struggle sessions about his legacy. Maybe we should all just agree, the best legacy poster was BMF.
