Well, you pay your respects in whatever way you're comfortable with... and I won't call you mean names either.

Moments of silence allow for contemplation and silent prayer to reflect on SD's tragedy, his strength, and Fester's inexcusably hurtful words to him.  It is my way of honouring the memory of his wife and hoping for the best as he and his children continue on.  As well as hoping Fester and others with similar words in their minds give it appropriate consideration as well.

I will say flying in the MA silently thinking about SD and his family has certainly opened my eyes and mind to appreciate the people behind the joystick, and what potential challenges they have faced, are facing, or could potentially face.  It's also caused me to dedicate more time going forward to improving my in-game fighting skills and less talking smack to or with people like you.

So burying the boards in drivel has ended?  Every thread will no longer be about you?

I'll believe when actually see it.

Your post here makes another one about me, and you have made many about me in the past.  If you don't want posts about me why do you then insist on making them? :rolleyes:

Or is this really about you making posts about you? :)

The largest potential issue with all of this isn't Fester's predictably boorish response or MidWhoPhp's awkward proclamation of a day of silence.

Did everyone just kind of shut down when this took the nasty turn it did?

Didn't feel awkward at all and actually am proud to say impacted me in a positive way and felt like exactly the right and most appropriate thing to do. :salute



PS: In addition to flying silently in the MA, it even encouraged me to go to the TA and get some time in.  If not for SD67's story, I would likely have been in the MA talking smack to people.  So more people benefited than just me, unless of course, they would rather have me smack talking them. :rolleyes:

Don't let this thread turn you into something bad as well, Junky, or to let badness turn this thread into something else.   

Something else?

What, exactly, is it now?

I'm sure it felt like satin sheets to you, but that wasn't my point. 

I think the point Dan was trying to make is that you staying silent on the internet is in no way a fitting tribute to anyone that has died, ever.  Most people would have felt silly suggesting it, but of course it seemed like an awesome idea to you.

If you're this clueless in real life, you really should stop it.  If this is just an act, you picked a bad time to continue it.

You know, normally I would argue with you and explain it to you, but since we obviously disagree on my doing nothing or my observing silence and reflecting on the real human tragedy here being the better of the two options for me... I'm not sure I would get anywhere with you and your insult hurling.  I do have more than a clue but won't go into it.  So let's leave it at that.  We'll agree to disagree, ok? :aok

I called you clueless.  That's the best way I could think of to describe someone who offered an lone day of silence on the internet to honor a life of someone they didn't know who died two years ago. 

This isn't a baseball game.  If you truly wanted to honor SD's wife, there's a thousand things you could have done, all of which without grandstanding it in the thread.

That would be great advice for everyone on AH.
