I think maybe you all deal too much with people who don't mean what they say and I absolutely mean what I say. Does Demo get banned for three days for clearly calling me dumb? Let's not play the semantics game. I mean seriously. There is a clear difference between calling for no dick answers and calling someone dumb. Can you agree? I mean HE picked the username and I should not be held responsible for that....
I don't know, should you be gagged for continually baiting him and keeping this going? Who started it? On this thread? Or do we go back to the other thread - since this is
clearly a carry over from the other one. And from there, do we go back to the one before that, and before that and before that?
I agree, let's
not play the semantics game.
I am sick of posting my opinion and having someone retaliate with how "dumb" he thinks I am. I am not dumb by any means....I have genius IQ, if that's what it's about, but it should not be in my estimation. It should be about learning and this is why I joined this forum. Not to be ridiculed, but to learn.
Ok, yet this is the third post where I read the word "banging" in relation to myself. You'll have to excuse me if I raise an eyebrow to your protests over someone being rude to
you.
For the record, if Liz is the Mod who should address the insult to a forum member, then I'll be very comfortable with her decision. Will you??
Don't you EVER state, nor imply, that I don't have faith in my staff to run this forum. I quite frankly don't care if you are "comfortable" with her (or any staff member's) decision or not in any matter. My staff has edited
my posts in the past, I don't get much special treatment.
Liz addressed it yesterday, I'm addressing it now. You're both going to knock it off, because I'm tired of it from
both sides. When the
staff decides what the
staff is going to do, we will do it.
For God's sake, I can map out every thread that involves a cop shooting, people will be horrified that it happened, talk about all the things that cops should do instead of shoot dogs, and the single cop on the board will post that if a dog threatens a cop the dog will likely die, and everyone will freak out. Said cop will then get pissed off, then everyone else will get pissed off, then tempers get short, then everyone pushes the limit on the rules, then the staff gets a pile of PM's telling us how Demo is an asshole and needs to be banned because all he does is bully members and he's mean. If I'm really lucky, I'll get a few PM's telling me that I play favorites and that if anyone else did what he did they would be banned in one minute (though we have banned seven people in almost five years so that's not exactly true).
