Forum Freakout, Part 6

Previously, on MinerBumping... After two campaigns of spamming and abusing the ISDs on two separate days, Fin Udan didn't have much time left in EVE. Or so he thought. To his amazement, the ISD didn't issue him a warning. Nor did they even lock his ISD call-out thread, though they removed the text of the original post in the thread. It gradually dawned on Fin that he had become some kind of anomaly: An unbannable poster. Now it was only a question of what he would do with that power.

Heavy is the head that wears the crown. Fin Udan found himself the subject of complaints from other denizens of the Market Discussions subforum. Some of the complaints bore a striking resemblance to the criticisms that Fin himself had once leveled against others.

Fin was fascinated by his own sense of forum invincibility. He intended to use it as long as it lasted. But he'd long since lost his love for EVE.

Fin knew he'd crossed the Rubicon. There was no going back to the way things were. Now he must either conquer Market Discussions or be annihilated in the attempt.

Although Fin tossed verbal hand grenades freely, other posters were convinced that the ISD would step in and put a stop to Fin's madness. Eventually.

Fin wasn't worried about being banned. He had faced the ISDs twice before and emerged unscathed both times.

Gazing across the Market Discussions subforum, Fin looked down upon the mortals and sneered.

An increasingly capricious Fin opened yet another thread. Everything had started with Fin's crusade against off-topic posts in Market Discussions. Now the subforum was littered with Fin's own off-topic musings on whatever subject he liked. Fin had become drunk with power--and was corrupted by it.

The community was appalled by Fin's transformation. They demanded answers. Fin casually fielded their questions as though he were at a press conference.

Fin's tentacles reached out into the other threads, as well. Fin, once a champion of the anti-bullying movement, slapped down the posters with insults. The off-topic bully had become the very things he hated most.

And then, silence.

Fin Udan could post no more.

The original trilogy of the Forum Freakout series was still in progress on MinerBumping, so Fin took advantage of the comments section to update everyone on his status. He still felt strongly that CCP and the ISD were biased against him.

Vowing revenge, Fin promised to return. If he ever does return, it likely will be under a new name; Fin Udan biomassed himself. Fin's ability to biomass himself means that although he can't post on the forums, his game account isn't banned.

Only after biomassing himself did Fin finally gain a convert to his cause. Anti-Ganker Nitshe Razvedka believed Fin had been provoked into acting the way he did. Nitshe followed in his mentor's footsteps by posting a thread in Market Discussions--which was immediately locked for being off-topic.

Such is the legacy of the notorious "Fun" Fin Udan.
