we've been trying to help him

A number of people have tried before to help NightyNight work on his behavior patterns. He's not the first habituate of this place to let their BCing fall into a negative obsessive rut, and as you have no doubt noticed, this is not NightyNight's first attempt at tiptoeing through BC's two lips. The ghost of Manny (and the impending ai apocalypse) remind us that we can change our nicknames, but we can't make ourselves unrecognizable due to our voice prints. His frequent use of phrases like I sincerely hope things get better for you... and I genuinely wish you well... in his last message to Coony ring a little defensive and then it makes sense when you see how fast he goes into disappointed-therapist-all-out-of-options-and-forced-to-call-the-law mode when "trying to reason with him didn't work." Same plant, different pot, and as with a lot of toxic plants, there is little to be done to the plant itself to make it change. All we can really do is point it out when we see it so others can recognize and make sure not to confuse his poison for medicine.
