LMAO... I cracked up when I saw the title.
Didn't think for a second any BL staff would take my highly immature post seriously. I'm impressed; and also a little excited that it's so easy to bribe around here... Hey, expect a few more changes taking place in EADD in the near future.
Anyway, reading back through the thread (sorry this one grows so fast it's hard to keep track:
I often see a lot of animosity posted towards One Thousand Words, and have to naturally question how genuine it is, because I've never seen the guy say or do anything wrong. I know there's always sad clowns on every forum who like to make an enemy out of someone so they can get off on one to escape all their own failings.
But reading back I really do find some of OTW's statements shocking, insensitive, unwarranted, disrespectful and quite honestly worrying.

Isn't gin cheap whores drink? I was just watching the all blacks destroy the wallabies at the pub drinking beer. And not enough it seems. Time for either k or coke
You son of a bitch.
A whore's drink!?! You think icons like me and Snoop dogg drink like the whores we make fun of? You think I spend upto £20 a bottle to drink like a whore? No, sir. Gin and juice is the drink of choice for laid back gangsta's, party animals, intellectuals (if tonic is mixed) and fun lovin' hedonists.
OK, now i'm going to follow up my piss-taking post with a very serious one.
And if merge-o-monk or knockers are feeling horny... it's an unwritten rule that 2 posts can be consecutive if the first is a joke post and the second is serious. And besides I've paid off Alasdair an extra couple of quid in my donation to make sure no-one messes with this post, so piss off.

The shrine is a shame. Ask yourself why so few real life family members bother to contribute to them? It's because if they knew half the things that we knew about then in their final days, they would no doubt have made more of an effort to save them. I prefer to make that effort than have to pretend that death was inevitable
Feel you really misunderstand what this forum is intended for:
We are here to offer support and help to those who look for it, for this is a harm reduction site. It is heavily moderated so misinformation is not spread. Yet we have Zero responsibility for the actions and choices of those who harm themselves. We give advice, it is up to the user to accept or reject it. The responsibilities of dealing with the individuals state lies to their closest family, friends, psychiatrists. Attributing the deaths to us and referring to the shrine as an "embarrassment" is completely warped way of looking at it.
The shrine is a chance to express any sorrow and grief felt amongst posters; an outlet to show respect and thought to the contributions the users have made to the forum. What could possibly be wrong with that?
As much as I disagree with what you say, at least you have given your honest opinion on the matter... which puts you above all those who start making derogatory comments about your wife or whatever... just because they disagree with you... how's that going to help or resolve anything? Shockingly childish are some of the posts in this thread.
