Yeah pepsi's good ****, he just has an abrasive posting style. For posterity in terms of anecdotal evidence of him further inflamming things over PM with everyone, this is what he sent me after we got into it in some thread.
What a piece of garbage.
That’s sweet.
Here’s a recent post he made to me:

Ever wonder why?
What a hero.

The pile on has been coming. He's been a dick for years and I'm glad it is being aired. If the stuff about Cliff telling him to kill himself and mocking his mental health is true, that is way over the line and should not have been said.
It’s not true. I have no idea what Pepsi is talking about. I’ve never said he (or anyone else) should kill himself. He must have me confused with one of the other people on CP he has a running feud with. I imagine at some point it gets tough to keep track of them all.

I’m 100% confident I haven’t killed or raped anyone here or anyone else anywhere (for my own entertainment or just like… in general, at all) so maybe let’s find a better comparison.
I mean I definitely agree that that would be worse than just being a jerk to people for funsies, yes. But I don't know if there is a TV show where that happens that's analogous. Maybe there is and I just haven't seen it... I don't have a ton of time. I still need to watch House of the Dragon.

Then again maybe it is the closest comparable, and I have used that defence this week, and we all know the worst thing is always the hypocrisy.
Any opportunity to post this.

It was you mocking me for being upset that people told me to kill myself/wishing me dead. Since we’re quoting posts:

Here’s another!

I’m confused, these weren’t posts where I had responded to you first. Is this… following me around?
But I asked if you had friends after you insulted my entire identity, and long after you made the above posts. Guess you’re still the victim!
For what it's worth, I've never seen PepsiFree take the piss out of anyone that wasn't asking for it in one way or another. Typically if you argue in good faith I find it's pretty mild, but I guess the sarcastic edge can upset some people.
Most of the time when things blow up with Pepsi and another poster it can all be traced back to some glaringly poor reading comprehension or misattribution on behalf of said poster. I think once Pepsi smells that blood in the water your best defense is to exercise a little self-awareness and humility; although that's not to say that they're infallible, either.
Maybe it's because we often fall on the same side of an opinion or argument, but I never fail to be amused by just how outraged a select group of members get over PepsiFree.

I really hate when you have 15-20 minutes worth of work to finish up the day and your computer decides to be a prick and you spend more than that just waiting for it to do its thinking and restarting.

It’s very confusing for me because some guys will try to paint me as basically online Hitler but then go on to argue that the Nazis did some good things. It’s like… do they think I’m good or bad???
For the record, I don’t think the Nazis did any good things and think being compared to Hitler is very bad. Not everyone agrees. But that’s just my bold stance.
If we're airing grievances now, I would like to say that the avatar that's just a zoomed in picture of a mustache disgusts me. Nothing against the poster themselves, but that profile pic, it grinds my gears.

No no, we get it, you don't hate the poster. Just Connor Zary himself, right?
