Originally posted by XanthosNZActions, definitely - and as the "lowest-form-of-wit master" I'm sure you'd know. There are folks on these forums who might share the views of the wolfpack, but they certainly express them it a less jaundiced manner.
What makes one a member of the Wolfpack? Is holding views that correspond to the Wolfpack members enough or is it the action that makes one a member?
Originally posted by XanthosNZI think I got lumped into the wolf pack for a while, when I posted disagreement to another hate stirring thread of Ivanhoes. Funnily enough, it was trying to get a mob together to run 2Bit off the site.

Immediately, I was 1 of "2Bit's friends", who "follows him around ridiculing poor innocent posters who 2Bit disagrees with".
So basically, from that, I'll guess that anybody who disagrees with Ivanhoe, and posts that disagreement, is de facto, a member.

Ringtailhunter, don't be a muppet and look up 'proof by contradiction'.
The WP evolved from Prad's organisation, the Freedom Fighters, in early August 2004, following Cribs' first forum ban. I don't know if there was some sort of power struggle, but Mt. Ivan eventually succeeded the Sesame Street Squad as guardian of all that was good and right on RHP (which means, incidentally, that there must have existed a time when the good and right was governed by the wrong, since Mt. Ivan had ideological differences with the SSS -- I do not believe he is a vegetarian). Ivan quickly took action against the 'Pack of Wolves' which he saw as a threat to the stability and safety of RHP. We'll have to ask him who's actually in the WP (he's been generally silent on this point), but when I see it mentioned I generally think of everyone who joined FW in the first few weeks of it's existence, with the exception of Phlabibit, who was pure SSS before Ivan took over and therefore probably joined FW for revenge rather than out of solidarity with his lupine brethren. That concludes today's history lesson.

look no further for stupidity. he writes this and gets a couple recs for it. if this isn't a clear indication of favoritism, then i dont know what is. of course there will be those that will still protect his post, even though it is only insulting and has no value whatsoever. and because they happen to be the majority here, they will be "right".

Originally posted by RagnorakAh, apologies. It was actually a thread started by Arrakis which listed players to be booted or ignored. This "list" was one person long: 2Bit.

Ivanhoe weighed in with...
"No matter what Arrakis experienced in the past, I agree with him that no1maurauder could substantially reduce his constant namecalling, insulting, degrading and accusing of people. No1 or one of his friends will probably come to this thread accusing me or Arrakis of the same, but that is part of the usual tactics. No1 usually drives you nuts with his abusive language, and after you retaliated in giving him a taste of his own medicine, for instance by calling him a "streetfighter", an "SA brown-shirt" or "brown trash", his friends immediately jump on you for hurting the poor thing's feelings and for being sooo abusive. After that, the no1bullymaurauder will use this unfortunate instance again and again against you every time you protest against his continued abuse. His friends of course will agree with him that you are an evil abuser and namecaller ..... you are so evil for accusing the poor thing abuse, because then and then, "we all remember", you hurted his Abusive Lordship's feelings.
The mods and admins should be handling this sad case and should do something about it. "
Then, after Ravello points out that 2Bit has never been banned, Ivanhoe retorts:
" See what I mean. Ravello is one of No1 friends and what does he do ? Exactly !"
To defeat bullying and gang mentality in RHP, Ivanhoe decides to join Arrakis' posse to try to run 2Bit out of town...
"Ignoring them is indeed the best policy. The admins are not willing to do anything about these abusive bullies and disruptive childish posters. Their tactics differ from case to case. They can be bullying, they can be childish, they can be insulting, degrading, but they always gang up on some victim. If they themselves are being cornered they always defend themselves by claiming it is "all" just "humour and sarcasm" and those who are protesting haven't understood anything at all from what they were trying to communicate. Their humour, sarcasm and cynicism is too refined for mere mortals to understand and appreciate. "
When I weigh in with my opinion, stating:
"You and Ivanhoe are on ye're own with this one. To be honest, I've seen you display more of the traits that you accuse 2Bit of. And Ivanhoe, whenever I decide to torture myself with having a look at one of the you and 2Bit spat threads, I normally end up thinking that you are the serial name caller, and abuser."
Ivanhoe, in his paranoid responds:
" Ragnorak is also one of No1's friends.
He applies the usual tactics of accusing and ridiculing those who dare speak out against His Lordship's behaviour on the "Debates" and "Spiritual" forum."
So, basically people, this is what we are dealing with... paranoia, hypocrisy and bullying tactics. I wouldn't be surprised if Mr Express and Mr Hoe were one and the same.

I submit this piece of evidence which says the contrary, and shows that we do indeed have differences.

You are steering away the focus of attention from no1's behaviour by spouting all kinds of ridiculous accusations in my direction.

Please, take good notice of the post's date. Nothing has changed, in particular the relevance of my last remark: "You are steering away the focus of attention from no1's behaviour by spouting all kinds of ridiculous accusations in my direction."
The truth of my words was standing then, is still standing now and will be standing in the future.
Originally posted by ivanhoeLol, I have never encountered anyone for whom the term martyr complex was better suited. Over and over and over, you claim that you're the victim in all this, when all I see is a you committing the same actions you're accusing others of. When someone eventually corners you, you fall back on either critical mass and a period of silence, or the more frequently used "we were all guilty of it at some time in the past, but shouldn't we all try and act responisibly now?" balony.
