my issue with the OP is that he's trolling. what answer could anyone here possibly give that would make him stop riding that fork?

"careful dude, bending your fork turns it into a pipebomb"?

even if he hadnt bent the fork and asked the forum's opinion, he'd still likely do it anyway. he's gonnabust barspinz into the sunset either way.

to the OP: most of us here only have one bike. if this is a beater for you, then who cares do whatever you want. just accept the consequences. if this is your only bike, no one here is ever going to give you praise for choosing style over function. you've apparently been a member here long enough to know you should stop looking for it on a forum. you know well enough what you've done to the bike, and having a forum blow sunshine up your butt won't change the laws of physics. do what you're going to do, but don't be surprised if that fork fails sooner or later (and hopefully not when your bombing a hill and your fork tacos sending you and your bike parts sliding through an intersection).

also, please please please please dont ever sell that fork to someone without letting them know what you've done to it.
