skuzzy was accurate in his statement in that i was not "banned". i was blocked.
in my view that is a matter of semantics but means to me essentially the same thing.
yesterday afternoon i called him and we had a good conversation regarding the matter. it ended well and i found that i was again allowed to post in this forum shortly thereafter.
it was nice talking with him and give me a perspective that i might not otherwise have had. he listened and was receptive to my opinion as well and i hope that he gained a bit of insight into me that is hard to guage based soley on text.
it was never my intention to spark rage.
i have debated about whether or not to jump right back in where i left off but the thought occurred to me that i havent really "enjoying" myself so much lately as i have been feeling a constant urge to rip someone to shreds for something that they have said.
it occurs to me that like a yawn or a sneeze, anger is contagious.
a sickness.
i think that we need a general quarantine and a serious rage check here across the board.
i think that those of you who feel that personal insults are going to change minds or earn respect might reconsider the value of that philosophy.
in artful and useful conversation i think that it is imperative that we do not personify the issue at hand in such a way that we no longer listen or care about the rights of others to have an opinion.
we should cherish our ability to change our minds rather than stiffling it. one cannot grow without doing so can they?
name calling is a bit childish wouldnt you agree?
disrespecting anothers right to an opinion is a bit totallitarian dont you think?
desiring that those who disagree with you should be silenced is a bit selfish isnt it?
i am guilty of some things, ill admit that.
can you?
i would like to request of all of us that we try to keep it civil around here.
we are adults. lets act like it.
thanks.

And then we wonder why it's taking so long for AH updates and ToD.

Well written 88.. 8)

what did you get "BANNED" or "BLOCKED" for saying?
THE megaSTUD :D
-
That is really none of your concern Dud. The issue is resolved.
Nice post 88.

You're not allowed to know. One day, if you're persistent, you'll say the same thing and then you'll know.

Or just post within the forum guidelines and never be concerned about it.

Good post, especially those last two points.

I have nothing but high respect and admiration for Skuzzy. He is the epitome of Moderators, a doer of deeds, fearlessly goes that extra mile. He should wear a cape with a BIG HTC on it *sorry Skuzz but all the capes with S were already taken* and skin tight leotards and a mask...with flames.
:aok
Skuzzy when are you gonna sign my adoption papers?
:)

"disrespecting anothers right to an opinion is a bit totallitarian dont you think? "

You do realize that your response to every single one of my posts is a personal attack, right Mac? Not that I care - it's tantamount to an itch that I can't locate - but...
I dunno, you're like the last dude I'd expect to see singing the virtues of Scuzzy when it's obvious that you don't respect his rules, and by extension, him.

Oh Poor, poor Nash.... and I was hoping that therapy was beginning to work.
Oh well....
:rolleyes:
-
ToD "STILL" hasn't come out?
Damn....:(

I think you just made Nash's point.

I didn't mention who was getting the therapy.
:D
So I do not think that I have made Nash's point.

Uh Mac, back-peddling isn't working. Own up.

Ah, yes, and then we could call him StrongBad. Who wants to be the TheCheat?
-
Nice post indeed. hear that silence following it? I bet it's because you haven't reached your thousandth(sp?) post yet!

What did skuzzys voice sound like 88? I guess he sounds like one of those 9600 baud dialup modems but there are also some rumors floating around that he is a real live person. Come on 88... what does a modulator sound like?
bip bip
:)
-
I've talked to him once.
Sounds like a late 30ish year old. Real sexy Barry White type voice. :D
-
Oh..
They do wonders with those computers these days. i plugged some speakers in the hole on the side of mine a few weeks ago and all kinds of sounds came out. Even the naked girl made noises.

are you sure that you touched your ... umm ... computer ? :D
-
I have heard it called all kinds of names before, but never computer.
Although,..it is a binary representation. Hmm,..guess I can see the logic in that.
-
Can we say "Deflation"?
:rofl
-
yes.. double clicked on the thing on the desktop and pressed play. The girl in the computer started doing her thing but she also made sounds now. really awsome.
-
? Afraid to ask.....
-
So the next logical question,...
Why was your thing on the desktop?
And, why did you have a "play" button installed? Or,..did your significant other have that alteration made? :D
-
ROTFLMAO!!!!!
Gotta clean the monitor screen now....
:rofl
-
88's just mad that he lost and he's looking for a way to not get made fun of for it.

i dont think that anyone lost here.
i dont feel that i lost anything but rather that i have gained from the experience.
but then, knowing the whole story makes that possible.
feel free to make fun of me all that you want, but remember, i read all of these posts out loud with sockpuppets and yours will be edited accordingly.
sometimes its best to make fun of people on the inside rather than on the outside where its visable.

As long as there is at least one 'Skuzzy' for every ten 'True Believers', this Board should survive and prosper.
-
Good Post!
-
Swager, is today your 'one liner post' day? :)
or are you trying to reach 1000?
I can't believe people get mad over politics !
-
Been in the same boat 88.
Old Skuzzy is more than fair.
Infact I think I will drive out there and buy him lunch as soon as I get well.
