Except me apparently, if you read the rest of this thread.
Thank you for your sacrifice
I do it for the glory of the Terran Empire.
People have their reasons for disliking you and I agree with them because my experience with you matches what they are saying flyingsquid
I came to dislike you because of the way you acted in this post

Yes, I know you hate me because I have a photo of my daughter naked when she was a newborn, which makes me a pedophile. That was established by multiple people in that thread.
The thread you linked shows Flying Squid being quite reasonable while being unfairly accused of being a pedophile for having photos of their newborn child. It's not a great example of them being unlikeable.
I understand the position in opposition to the squid's (very common) opinion that it's OK to have a nude photo of your baby which might be playfully and innocently used to embarass them as an adult. At no point in that thread did the squid take a position in favor of creating trauma for anyone. I would imagine, like most parents, if their daughter made it clear to them that showing the photo was a traumatic experience for them, the squid would never show it.
Also, the squid was never mean or unfair in that thread. It's just not a good example of them being unlikeable, in my opinion. If anything, their demeanor while being unfairly called a pedophile only makes them more likeable.
