I was told it was something that, if thought about too much, would cause post-epic level problems. The nightmare aspect wasn’t part of my concept of whatever it is until now.
I also get the feeling Eliezer wouldn’t react as dramatically as an above synopsis implies unless it was a big deal (or hilarious to do so). He seems pretty … rational, I think is the word. Despite his denial of being Quirrell in a parent post, a non-deliberate explosive rant and topic banning seems unlikely.
He also mentions that only a certain inappropriate post was banned, and Roko said he deleted his own posts himself. And yet the implication going around that it was all deleted as administrative action. A rumor started by Eliezer himself so he could deny being “evil,” knowing some wouldn’t believe him? Quirrell wouldn’t do that, right? ;)
