OK, as everyone now knows, the whole thing was a set-up. I was indeed Disemboweller, the argument with Stefan was faked, the whole caboodle. The fact that quite a percentage of the forum seems to have turned on me instead of taking the whole thing as a joke is rather unfortuanate. Let me just get a few things straight:
1. My recent "bad temper" was all part of it, building up slowly. My personal life is bearable, thanks.
2. I do NOT think of myself as the most important poster by any means. Just because I make more posts, does that make me any more special than the rest of you special people? No.

Pure satire. Other people may have said that about me, I have never taken that to be true. Honestly, my ego isn't that big, and if you take this as attention-whoring, well, you've missed the point entirely.
Anyway, you have to admit it had you all going. I cracked and told a couple of people who had sent concerned emails (only two! You're all very loyal!), and it seems to have leaked from there. Eyesore and other mods (two of whom I've already apologised to), I can only say that it was a bit of fun, I'm sorry if you got annoyed, but otherwise I'm unrepentant.
I <3 you all, and want to do perverted things with orange juice to you more than ever. Pete,
that was the best post you've ever made. I nearly killed myself laughing.
And if 'You do both. At once, with a cherry on the top!' doesn't become the phrase of the year, well, I'm disappointed!
Back to business, gang.
