Longest running argument on a chit chat thread?

My nominees are:

Trump thread, stickyvicky doing his best impression of

since 2017 (~27.000 posts)

For a single topic/incident, and in my opinion the worthy winner, probably the "Apollo 17 a fake" thread.

Terry McCann and Dr Crippen in the red corner fighting Charlie and Mexico in the blue corner for about one and a half year and about 2100 posts.

There also Baphornet's "The vote is at 7:00" (2.300 posts in half a year), but I think Baphornet, Managament and mouse muldoon were not really arguing in that one. They just bantered each other into oblivion.

I'm a bit disappointed I didn't feature prominently in any of these epic threads. I did once go round circles with a poster called nugget all night about why ethno-nationalism is for douchebags for many hours one night though. Wasn't on Chit Chat though.

edy you were a certainty for a top 3 if you hadn't got all the opposing posts removed

I have to admit it tends to look a bit silly when I open some old threads and there's multiple hundreds consecutive posts from me.

Hey edy you didn't tell me you were a forum moderator what's going on there?

edy and denzil will win the 2021 award for this

See 1230am and 1:03am posts

edy is a moderator and very few of his forum foes are/were banned, must be someone else

edy You posting on here reporting people policing the forum is a conflict of interest

Do I look like I care about that?

i think your hair moved a tad, tbph edy

No,do you think any forum members care or are you not bothered?

edy You should be setting an example to create a better forum atmosphere including all people,their ideas encouraging a community friendly spirit not taking sides removing posts at will and threatening people with bans if things don't go your way.

Sorry, the only two people I take directions and advice from are my mother and my personal stylist Ashley (no, this is not my mother).

You are neither, as far as I'm aware, so...I'll keep doing what I like.

No need to apologise having a personal stylist says it all.
What is the policy on staff posting as community members can you forward me a link please.

What do you mean "having a personal stylist says it all?

As for the policy, how would I know? I have far more important things to care about, like my glorious Disney Prince hair, than to read any stupid documents.

You are genuinely serious about your appearance
You must know whether you are allowed to post or not

Personals Stylist?????

I've got a Personal Stylophone, but that's more because the other members of my prog rock band were intruding my social distancing when we had a Communal Stylophone.

If I am able to post, it means I'm allowed to. That's how I always saw it.

That means nothing there is no checking system that could verify your employment status in relation to posting on this community.
As a moderator that is a blatant conflict of interest and you have abused your position - that is not up for debate it's well evidenced.

Complain to anyone relevant instead of boring me with your lectures.

if edy loses his moderator status, who do I get my reports fast tracked to
