Blood Spectre

O rly?





(I mean nothing by it, I am just making a point)

It's like a twenty. But there are TWO of them!

Or, so the legend goes.

Fair is fair. I wouldn't need this at roll out to be satisfied though. But then, I have never been one to hide my rep either.

Yes. On every single thing you have ever posted. Ever.

No.

I think that would be best for everyone. Thanks for shedding some light on the issue.

I ... concur

And I'll go ahead and voice my opinion that you are wrong, and your stubborn repetition of the same point over and over again isn't really contributing to the discussion in any meaningful way. You disagree. We understand. We understood it several pages ago as well. We didn't find your position on the debate convincing then, and have not found it convincing with further echoes in subsequent posts.

Deal.

I mean, in what universe do you live in anyway? They told us MONTHS in advance that a new and improved forum was coming, and that there would be changes. Nobody could have predicted what those exact changes were, certainly. However, you were given every reason to expect minor changes in the forum experience. What they delivered was a forum very much like the old one, with a few improvements. Which is exactly what they said they would do. And no, they were under no obligation to run the specific improvements by you first, sorry. That's not the way the Host/User relationship works on an internet forum.

So, yeah, yanno. Deal.

No one is forcing you to read it. You knew what was in the thread before you clicked on it.

Yes you are a towering momument of masculinity, fearsome and terrible, and no man would dare to speak ill of you or your kin! Better watch your step guys, Alien's in town.

Or, you know, maybe you're just full of it. Because I can tell you this from personal experience, cultivating a reputation as a man who responds to challenges with his fists doesn't keep fights away from you. It brings them on. Until eventually you fight somewhere public enough that the police catch up to you and haul your disruptive and unruly *** out of polite society for a couple of years. Meanwhile, the grown ups have learned to handle our pride without all the chest thumping and urine measuring. Well, less of it anyway.

Now, as for that last bit, let's just be clear as to what exact insult you are attempting to lob at me. Are you saying that my family doesn't have a good name? Or that I am too cowardly to defend it? Or are you suggesting instead that I don't love my family if I don't feel the need to punch people on their behalf?

You go through life decking out everyone who insults you, and let me know how that works out for you. Just make sure you behave in prison, so that you're allowed to have visitors, and I will come see you and you can tell me all about how that played out.

Now, Goat aside, I have personally been attacked with things worse than "jerk", (because I am a raging rectum of a man) both anonymously and directly. Or, I assume, directly. I suppose it's possible that someone could have lied and signed someone else's name to their comments. It's not as if I would be able to tell the difference. Even so, I still like the system. I got far more affirmations than I did insults, and I would very much like it if it were easy for people to pat me on the back once again.

Stop.

Hammertime

I have no idea who those people are, so I'll have to trust you on that.

Ok. Because there are totally so many people complaining about being frivolously reported for no good reason. Sounds to me like you're worried that you might be guilty of something, and are looking for a way out of getting reported, by suggesting that anyone notifying a moderator is wasting their time. I just calls em as I sees em.

If that's the case, genuine time wasters will get punished as well. As you already said, there is precedent. Meanwhile, let's let the mods decide who is wasting their time, not you know, you.
