By the same token, no matter how long and loud some professional victim might whine about how devastated they were, I wouldn't punish nobody if there wasn't nuthin worth reportin to begin with and the VICTIM was just being overly sensitive or seeking spiteful "revenge." Wanted to add that. In fact, I would probably suspend THEM for a spell for wastin my time and to learn them a lesson bout cryin wolf.

@Finn dAbuzz,
Finn, I really am not interested in arguing with you or others who get irked. I don't know what makes you so angry. Please don't tell me, I have enough on my plate. It seems you think I can control others on this forum. There are quite a few I find enjoyable, but I doubt if they see themselves as my 'posse'. Do you want a posse??? Or do you just want to be able to choose who gets to participate?

It might not be very healthy to assume everything I post has something to do with you. Just doesn't seem a good way to go thru life. In truth, I do find you irritating, but not so irritating that I want to follow you around or get you kicked out because, I can put you on ignore. Your postings on this thread alone are the main reasons I avoid you. If I don't read your comments, I'm not tempted to respond and then both of us are happier.

Even writing this note is irking me. I would just like to be done with whatever your vendetta is about. I have not, nor would I ever suggest you should be kicked out and I simply don't have a clue why you carry on the way you do.

Like I said, I have no interest in engaging you, arguing with you and I'm fresh out of ideas.

@layman,
You're baaad.
I'm only mildly put off by the, erm, dialect changes, more a tad weary, but ok with it if you keep writing in your other mode. I didn't mind it when it wasn't a seeming constant. I'm more put off by our differences re bombing the hell out of people (that is not a direct quote, but similar). But I'm not clear if I believe you on all that, it might be hyperbole as a trial balloon for reaction. Performance art. Also, if all that bushwagging (new word, folks) is a genuine opinion, that's your right to say.

Thus, I'm not all clear on layers of put on or reality, but I'm not sure that even if it is all a put on, that it's a forum neg.

Color me confused.

@Finn dAbuzz,
Yours is an important post Finn because it underlines some of the ways we've descended into ill-mannered behavior
Quote:
I'm sure I've been guilty of this particular behavior myself at one time or another, but as a result of this discussion these examples really presents in stark relief, and I will be far more circumspect in the future.

I feel the same.

I would urge posters on the left and right to cut down on the aggressive, baiting contributions.

I firmly believe we can interact without mod intervention and bannings

I remember that there one time when my Mama, she told me, she sez:

Looky here, Layboy. Don't never believe what you don't hear. Remember that, boy.


Sumthin like that, anyway, I don't rightly recall, truth be told.

@Finn dAbuzz,
Hey Finn, I have to admit I'd forgotten the original exchange that pissed you off so much. Then, suddenly, out of the blue, it hit me.

http://able2know.org/topic/216506

You were such a gentleman on Firefly's RIP thread, I may have failed to properly thank you for your lovely demeanor and lessons on decorum. Perhaps it was a mistake to tell you to go crap in your hat......but after re-reading your hot-headed crap, I think I should have used stronger language.

I get it, I really do, Robert could drop the hammer and you are back-peddling furiously. Too bad, so sad other folks have a better memory than you do.

@glitterbag,
I would say off hand that you are in the top ten and perhaps the top five users on this system who should be ban for life for your very bad conduct here.

In any case, you have no room to comments on others posters.

Whats the problem Bill, you were not involved in that thread. However in the spirit of full disclosure, I think you're pretty creepy, but I don't want you banned.

@glitterbag,
Frankly I do not like the idea of the informer system that Robert seems to wish to set up but if Robert is going to do more then blowing smoke instead of doing a token banning of Hawkeye ,he should be banning you and Izzy and other such posters who make Hawkeye look like a choir boy.

That's easily fixed. Find another forum. No one is a prisoner here.

This whole thing tickles my funny bone. Everyone reads "The rules are changing, we are going to start showing the assholes the door" and thinks it's wonderful - and each of us is equally certain he wasn't talking about us.

I guess maybe creating a fun izzy narrative among those of us he's feted in such a manner and then broadcasting it through the pages is one response option.

Taking the high road hasn't been as satisfying as one might imagine.

I used to respond in kind to the thuggish name-callers. But then we all ended up sharing a suspension for a week.

Currently my policy is that if any of them launch a horrendous attack against me and I see it, I'll just report it to the moderators. That way I won't find myself sharing another suspension with them.

Though like I said a bit earlier, I think they stopped attacking me after that shared suspension. At least, nothing is breaching ignore anymore.

I meant to respond to that. There are so many posts that I get sidetracked and then forget about.
