For one thing, people tend to take insults offensively last time I checked. No matter what you say you are not meaning to say: Like this for instance, ? I?m not trying to be an ass-hole, but you?re an idiot.?
Also, Jonathan does not rant and rave, and he apologized stating:
| "Actually it was my "Communist" post that seems to have everyone upset. Let me apologize. I guess my reaction was a little over the top, I did not mean to suggest censorship or denying anyone the ability to express their own opinions. My intention was to suggest that the "Anon"'s comment really didn't belong in this thread and was actually detrimental, considering the nature of the original topic. (see the opening post)That was why I was upset about the reference to posting without consequences. I deleted my original post because it was just adding to fire. And I don't want to be the one hijacking this thread. So for anyone who read my "incendiary" post consider it rescinded. And my apologies to those who took my post to be promoting that there be no free will to dissent here. If we all agreed then there would be nothing to talk about. This is a great forum and I wouldn't want to change anything." |
He doesn't post here anymore, and he won't ever again. I haven't hounded you or given you grief, I tried to explain that I thought you misunderstood him to begin with. I had been here one week when I posted that thread. I did not post looking for a fight. I posted hoping to find someone to relate to me. Anything I took to personally, that the original anonymous wrote, I let go of, and discarded it as that, and yes, I deleted my original post which stated strong disagreement towards the anon. My reaction to him was emotional, as was my frame of mind. I?ve admitted that. Your PERSONAL feelings are obviously ones of dislike towards me. I'm not going to let you bully me though. You're right! We don't see eye to eye, that doesn't mean:
| "Join the ranks or be crushed." |
By the way, in case you haven't noticed, you are the one attacking, not me. You started this with us and made it PERSONAL. Why?
You say you?re leaving, that the board has gone to hell, Well? You?re still here I haven?t been pushing you, you?ve been trying to start shit with me ever sense I came on this board. I?m not fighting with you. This isn?t a bar. ?honey?
I do have hope, and don't mind being referred to as a star either so thanks.
| Why dont you post a little poll of your own and ask everyone if they want to boot ME off the board? Then you could flutter about spreading your love and support unhindered by those of us who dont want to be like frigging sheep? |
Because, not everyone is just like you Carmel, sorry to disappoint you. Hate me all you need. I?m not the bovine.
| Can you honestly look back and say that what that person posted anonymously to the new poster was wrong one little bit in view of how things are turning out on this board? Is it lying to say that we arent just all a bunch of helpful supportive love-bugs? I defy you to make that judgement. |
No, you are doing a great job of proving him right.
