I often feel sympathy or kinship with stuff and people that gets battered by very serious teenagers on the internet, so I should like both JMan and Applerill. And I do. JMan is not so bad, but he doesn't function on BEA's forums; JMan is too different from this site's mainstream (i.e. very serious indie-pop-obsessed teenagers who aren't exactly into conceived criteria for assessing music or avoiding f-bombs) for it to make sense for him to choose to spend time here. Having people reacting like "wtf dude" to something you say can be healthy, but receiveing no other responses than "wtf dude" to everything you say is probably not so healthy, or a striking example of meaningful communication. I'm glad he decided to leave, as his presence here was genuinely sad for everyone involved; I sincerely hope he finds more suitable company in the future. As for Applerill, I find him to be a very likable user, which makes me surprised to see some of these reactions (though I choose not to question the validity of users feeling hurt by his presence); I find him to be one of the most interesting posters on the site, and since I can only vote based on what I know, he qualmlessly gets my vote

I'm not on Skype so i don't know about such conversations, anyway Applerill / Charlie seems cool to me: funny and/or interesting, when he doesn't want just to be a troll. And I also like his unusual taste in music.
While I haven't seen anything too exciting or interesting posted or said by Jman.
So my vote goes to Applerill.

I come to the BEUT threads for laughs and admiration of user's good qualities. This time I think I need a hug.
Also...

How is this supposed to be a problem?

To be quite honest I always found Charlie's occasionall trolling and lack-of-filter responses rather harmless, but admittedly he has a tendancy to say things without at all thinking how other people may be affected by it, so those who did get upset by some of the things he posted here or elsewhere it's definitely understandable, but I don't think he's out to intentionally bully anyone (except for those that make movie lists  ). JMan in all honesty too I found pretty harmless and forgiveable, it was often just J-guy himself who blew minor squabbles beyond all extremes.

Woah. Was he that heartbroken by JMan's departure?
