I've been DEMOTED?? Whaa?

[Ivan]

I'm not going to argue with you as your mind is made up on this...

I guess it's a good thing all of the joking that others do isn't taken this seriously...

Ok. Don't argue. Fact is your so called jokes still hurt a lot of people.

Yeah, we'd all be queer huh?

What

The He11 was that all about???

You know Steve, it seems some people just are not going to be happy until they start an argument and get to be pissy with folks. I once knew a guy like that, hung around with him for a couple years. Then the constant antogonistic BS got old and I quit going anywhere around him. And people wonder why they don't get invited to places.

Ohh...and I am sorry but I have to say anyone who thinks deleting their post on this website, let alone the bleeding HBT Forum compares in any way to burning books let alone the Holy Bible, really needs to get over themselves. I'd laugh at it if it wasn't so completely sad.

Drama in my relationship, drama at work, and now on one of my favorite sites. Geez, must be the heat.

Pathetic is a more apt term

You know, I met you and thought you were pretty decent, sorry to disappoint you on this end.

Actually you Easterners were all pretty decent, from what I could gather.

So much of a joke that friends and their wives were deleted from facebook friends that had nothing to do with it....


No homo!

It matters not

what medium the literary works were confined in, nor whether one person or another cared naught for them. The case is easily made that one person shall not destroy the works of another without delivering just compensation.

I would have appreciated being asked if I wished a copy. One man's trash is another's treasure. As to those that think their own works unworthy, I would thank them to confine their opinions just as they wish to confine mine. You have no rights beyond that which affects you directly.

As I should have stated previously, IMO the post count means something only to those with big egos and swollen heads. Ideas on the other hand are the very essence of mankind. Impetuous actions are by nature done without thought. The destruction or squashing of ideas and formulated opinions is something I personally would rather avoid.

...this comparison is what I thought was pathetic...I did not attribute this to any one person and certainly not implying anyone here is pathetic,but I guess i should just STFU as I really didnt intend to offend anyone.

Ivan after all this $h!+ is said and done my opinion of you has not changed. I too think you are a pretty decent person always have. Sometimes my opinions are also unsolicited and I say whats on my mind right or wrong. After all if we all thought the same then what would we learn from each other? I'm not dissappointed in the slightest bit.

[Ivan]

Well, John, that was a very well put iteration of just what I was getting at with the burning books comment. I wish I had your command of the language.

It wasn't the post count, rather the ideas and opinions that were important to me, even if I didn't agree with them.

[Guy_b_g]

For once I'm glad I have absolutely no idea what's going on.

It would be sad to see a site like this fragmented by personality differences, but I guess it wouldn't be the first time I've seen it happen to a good group of folks who can't or won't swallow their pride and concentrate on what they have in common rather than tearing each other down.

People will be people, sometimes the best people make the worst mistakes, for what seems like all the right reasons of the moment, then stand back and look at the damage it wrought, shake their heads and wonder how it could have happened. I hope that's not the case here, I'd hate to see this site turn into a slow moving train wreck.

Just sayin'.

Ok, cool. Thanks.

It's not tearing us apart but making stronger friendships of those we can trust. I could care less who is friends with who, just hope that workouts for you and not have to see the petty things happen to each of those friends one at a time until the bridge is burnt down. I'm not going to sway anyone from befriending this person or that person, sometimes people click even if they are totally evil to other friends along the way, hence why this wasn't brought up before to oust anyone. Make your own decisions, I'm not making for you.

God damn I am sick of babysitting! If you have a personal problem with someone, work it out via PM, or get over it! As for losing post counts, get over it. The person who started this thread is! If you want to talk polotics, go somewhere else! If you want something fixed for free, send it to Ivan. And last, but certainly not least, if you don't like the way this forum is run, LEAVE! PERIOD. This is rediculous.
