The leader of the jerk-offs need not sugarcoat anything.

We have a thing: keep out of the PM log unless there is a good reason to go there.

One time I was checking if a user was spamming-via-PM, it's a thing, and saw on the logs something that shouldn't. I was playing Mafia at the time and saw a bunch of back and forth messages between 2 players in mafia. My brain immediately knew who were the scum. I had to ask Kitty the game Mod to replace me as it would be unfair. Fortunately no need as I ended up NightKilled and naturally off the game.

Funnily enough... not on this site, but on another site I play Mafia on I suspect there is a mod who cheats like this in every mafia game he plays. He's a mod for a different part of the forum, and a really horrible mafia player. Never scumhunts, doesn't even write coherent sentences, rarely understands the game, constant lurker... and almost without fail calls the scumteam correctly on day 1 every game. Usually gets mislynched because he's absurdly overconfident in his conclusion, and then gloats after the game about how everyone should have listened to him.

No evidence that he's cheating - everyone just assumes he has an incredible gut -  but it's certainly something I suspect. There are a couple of things he's 'guessed' that have just made my jaw drop.

Eyes Wide Shut? But Dead Eyes Opened sounds better!

I could send you a PM threatening you with violence?

She really is very good at that .. well, both really: the violence and the threats.  Have fun but play safe.

The man built this forum on that sole purpose. And he had a crush on (IMO) that Eilonwwy biatch.

Oh shit, scratch that, the man had a crush on cryptography. *runs*

What bitchfaced bitchiness did that bitch pull?
