Let's not sugarcoat it. Vispilio (and many others like him) is in DT1 only because of the incestuous back-scratching among Turkish members of this forum, and the rest of DT1 happily ignoring it.
Ah, I was wondering who the clique was, because while I recognize his username I haven't seen any of Vispilio's posts in I don't know how long--maybe never, unless he was ranting in Meta or Reputation about discrimination against Turkish members. That happened once or twice and I could swear it was him. I should probably check his post history, but I'm just too goddamn lazy.
Can you suggest any member with those qualities?
Fuck, I've got a spine made out of titanium. Vispilio needs to be excluded? Do I have enough pull on DT to make any difference? I profess that I have no way of knowing, since I stopped paying attention to DT matters a long time ago.
