the same "Swimmer" from our forums? Just wondering.
Check this out

http://www.pixiesmusic.com/forum/index.php?act=ST&f=2&t=1991&st=15#entry30314

I think he was sort of a jerk to me about it, but whatever.

Got coffee, got donuts, got wasted..

Report him to a moderator at Pixiesmusic. Don't bring his name up around here, because he doesn't warrant the attention and, frankly, I'm sick of hearing about him.

Oh so you think it's him? Sorry I didn't know that we were not on good terms with this individual anymore. I hadn't seen him post in a bit but I still remembered him.

Yes, it's him and like Chris said it's better if we just don't mention his name over here.

[shh. Yes, its definitely him. Apparently, he's done something evil and twisted in his past, and if you say his name three times... nothing happens]

Good grief people.

Anyone would think he is famous. He must love it. He gets mentioned daily. I can honestly say I've never once mentioned his name except for this:

"the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he wasn't the swimmer"

It definately does,
like I said, it is you guys who are making him a 'legend'.

If you're not on the receiving end of his insults,
he's actually an alright guy imo.

You think The Swimmer is Satan? An interesting concept...

I think its hilarious that he's taken on this whole new life now. I think people are over reacting though.

Who cares if he gets the attention? It doesn't matter in the slightest. He was never that bad when he was here...

The Swimmer is no longer a person here, he's more like a concept.



And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable... I simply am not there.

I have absolutely nothing against "the swimmer" at this point. When I said 'I'm sick of hearing about him', I meant that I'm sick of people mentioning and talking about him on this forum because (a) he cannot reply and (b) he doesn't deserve the scrutiny or the negative connotation that he's given. The guy is a human being, not a concept, which, as Adnan alluded to, people continue to make him out to be.

Besides, what is so incredibly interesting about some guy with a juvenile temperamental streak?

Let's put it this way :

the Swimmer is a guy who used to haunt this forum, and who I asked to marry me

the swimmer is the concept, meaning someone's not what he seems.

There you are. Happy?

I think the point here Chris, as Cheeseman refered to, is lighten up. What does it really matter? Let people refer to him if they wish. It's not really hurting anybody, not at all.

Its funny Chris b/c you say you're sick of hearing about it
but then you post twice.
You also say that he cannot reply and doesn't deserve the negativity
but then you take a parting shot.

I'm just sayin...

Virtually the only reason the swimmer is ever brought up on this forum after having been banned for several months is his reputation as a short-fused individual. This is a fact, not a cheap shot by yours truly.

Maybe the word "sick" is a bit too emphatic. It's not THAT big of a deal to me personally. But it probably is to Jason.

Only in that he no doubt finds it highly amusing. It's what he would have wanted.

I visited the pixiesmusic forum a couple of times, a while back, and its the swimmer and Stitches that seem like 'the daddies' over there. I chatted with them for a while, and while Jason is kind of bitter about the whole thing, he's still an OK guy. To be honest, I don't really remember properly what the whole fuss was that caused him to be banned. I'm sure he deserved it, Dave doesn't strike me as particularly vindictive. However, I can remember him being a slightly odd, but always interesting poster here, and a nice enough chap.
He's taken it a little strangely, what with the multiple user names and all, but hey. Who actually cares?

Actually, when he was first banned, I though KoK was the swimmer - for all I know, he might be. He arrived just as Jason left, he's called Jason... coincidence? I think not...

Yeah but KoK is cool, so let him stay. Actually The Swimmer may have been cool too, I never really noticed him much.

Maybe we should add 'The Legend of The_Swimmer' to the FAQ..or erect a separate page in his honour. =P

I agree that he can be a good guy, but his fuse is just too short for me to want to deal with it.

The Swimmer:

a great song...

But a forum member who helped cause way too much drama than this forum needed.

Who cares if his name gets mentioned really? And so what if he can't reply? The guy is a human being - like you said. So is Michael Moore, Ray Bradbury, and George Bush. Does that mean we shouldn't talk about them negatively because they can't reply?

I feel bad for Dave, this forum has turned into a wicked step-child and there is really no way for 1 or 2 or a couple poeple to maintain total rule... this site is a beautiful idea, and has always been good to me, but it isn't hard to see that it can easily become unmanageable...

For instance, Dave doesn't even really post anymore...

Something to think about


ps. I always knew that Kok bastard was the Swimmer =) jk

Except this isn't a monotheist society cause Dave wasn't the only one who created this world. Remember that.
