I think most of Therion's posts are as relevant as any others I've seen, and more relevant than some. Personally, I wouldn't go on here and talk about some of the things he has talked about, but that's his choice. If you don't like what he has to say, don't read it or respond to it. I can't speak for him, but I think a lot of times he plays devil's advocate or tries to draw people out with some of his posts. You would have to ask him.
The guy has as much a right as anyone to post here. He paid his dues by being in Straight and, by his own admission, was scarred by the experience. I think anyone who was at Straight can sympathize. I know I can. If you don't like what he has to say, don't read it.
I also think that a lot of his detractors have taken cheap shots at him--calling him a junkie, etc. That's just low. Therion has been pretty open about his MMT and is dealing with his addiction in the most commonly accepted method available in the US.
Personally, I could do without the song lyics, and I don't need to know about his love life, or his feuds with any one else on the 'fora', but that's my opinion. I don't read or respond to posts that I am not interested in.
If you disagree with what he has to say, that's fine. Disagree. Reply to his posts and tell him and us why you think he's wrong, off target, or whatever. But to condemn the guy out of hand and engage in personal attacks against him is counterproductive, uncalled-for, and boring to read.
I think he has made some valuable contributions to the board and I hope he sticks around.
As for Dr. Fucktard, the guy told you from day one that he's trolling for kicks and if you play into his bullshit it's your own damn fault. I think several of his posts have been amusing and thought provoking, when he's not calling out "Anon". Pro-Straight? I hardly think so.
