He can't delete it. You only have a one-hour window to delete your posts.

I do wonder if everybody who's been saying that is using it to take a cheap pop at him, or whether they're worried that he is starting to unravel a bit. I could believe there's a few cases of the latter. I think most of it is the latter. There are very few people here who don't like PA. He's one of the nicest, most decent people on the site. I think most of the people who hound him about his meds have made it fairly clear they're worried about the guy.

I don't care.

I really don't think people should delete insulting posts after they're made. That sets a really dangerous precedent. Far better to do what Moonhead has done and own your words, as opposed to trying to disclaim responsibility for them.

Please place me in the camp of those who like Pa...and of those who on more than one occasion has urged him to a)get back on his med...and b) seek competant help. Perhaps it isn't my place to have done so....but like others are stating it was not done,in any instance out of any malice....none at all!

Make a post....regret it...delete it...person it was about isn't hurt. I've done it myself.

An hour is more than enough time to decide something was a bit too low, no matter how funny it is. Of course, I caught one of this particular posters ideas of a "joke," recently, before the mods deleted it and he's on the zero tolerance list now.

If you are truly concerned about someone that way send a private cmail, and don't pile onto someone publicly as a group. According to PA he doesn't FEEL like you've been trying to help him, at all. quote: ORIGINAL: slvemike4u Please place me in the camp of those who like Pa...and of those who on more than one occasion has urged him to a)get back on his med...and b) seek competant help.

Be as petty as you want to be towards me, rml, I couldn't care less. You and your ilk could never slow my stride or steal the smile away from my face.

Ok...I want to make an exception to my post on insulting people....I have found the one person I would like to insult....and I would truly mean it!...No, not Sanity, my thoughts on Sanity remain the same....but, there is this one total idiot not to be named who wishes to feed "libs" to gators, can't spell MacArthur while telling everyone else how right he is and how wrong the rest of the world is. Oh to be so smug and convinced!....[:'(]

subtee -> RE: Insults and other aggravations here (3/17/2010 11:35:08 AM)
And I was going to post this there, but I agree with you. It scares me because he's threatening people, from the President to many of us. Further, I worry that we're feeding it. It seems to me he's dangerously close to a psychotic episode or something. [:(]

quote: ORIGINAL: Sanity I can't respond to julia in the original thread due to the mod's intervention in designating that thread "a protected thread" so here's a new thread where hopefully we're free to discuss whatever aggravates us about other's posts, and specifically poster's insults. Musicmystery began that thread as an attempted insult, then insulted me further in that thread by calling me simplistic, etc, and then got all pissy when I called him on it. juliaoceania took a swipe at me in that same thread then became indignant in a similar manner that Musicmystery did when I responded to her in kind. So what gives. Are Conservatives and Tea Partiers etc. really expected to take insult after insult here without giving any of it back? Or why do the Libs here get all indignant and whiny when you let them have a mouth full of their very own medicine. I wouldn't mind doing away with all of the insults entirely, but on a voluntary basis, and thats a part of why I am as insulting here as I am. I am deliberately trying to drive home a point, anyone can do it so just drop it and lets have some sensible discussions. I appreciate the hands off attitude we've had from the mods lately, a lot - and I really hope they continue that policy. I hope that the interference in MM's "Sanity" thread was a mere aberration because we're all supposed to be adults here and we should each be fully capable of defending ourselves, and I'm pretty sure that given time and enough rope the worst of the insulting behavior will clear itself out of the system for the most part. This piece of shit from someone who has thousands of post showing how rude and insensitive a human can be. From a snitch. You are a curious person who finds the behaviour you exhibit on a regular bassis to be offensive when done by others.

[:(] If I had read a post from him that was threatening the president I would report it to those who are charged to protect our leader... because that can't be tolerated... I haven't seen a post from him in which he directly threatened Obama, but I tend to only scan them.

Well being as I ,both by choice and by your own definition,fall into his ilk category ,do me a favor and spare me your offering of any advice at all...be it public or private. As you once pointed out ...you don't like me...that's cool,I don't like you either so on that much at least we are clear.Save yourself the waste of time and do not under any circumstance believe for a moment you are qualified to offer me any advice at all.....lets be honest,if you told me the sun was shining I would grab a big old umbrella!

FR: It is possible that cucky is a bott or just off his meds or most anything in between. No matter the source he does represent a mindset that has a following. When Stalin recognized that there was no way he was ever going to be able to change the minds of the "aristocracy" he did the only rational thing he exterminated them. Hitler commented extensively on the efficiency of the U.S. government in dealing with their "assimilation" problem with the native Americans. So we can see that this is not just the meandering mind of superannuated delinquent. This is one of the main forms of conquest. Another would be subjugation which of course leaves one with a large population of people who don't like you. We can see the problems that is causing the U.S. in the "sandbox". I believe it is interesting that a person who cries out for freedom seeks to deny freedom to others both at the micro and the macro level.

quote: ORIGINAL: Sanity Thank you PA, that post was the kind of discussion I had hoped to get started with this thread. I've noticed the unrelenting attacks on you along thoise veins as well, and it seems like one person starts it and others in the same little clique just pile on. Hang in there, maybe we're turning some kind of a corner here. Have you tried ignoring the trolls you mention? Because thats all they are. I personaly don't have anyone on block, but there are several whose posts I either never read or that I rarely read. It is my opinion that far too many come not to debate let alone learn. Boards as a general rule are like call-ins whether radio or say C-Span, not to discuss and debate issues but to simply reinforce their own presumptions and prejudices. I used to watch C-Span every morning because Brian Lamb was the host...then 'semi-retired' to Fridays. He was the host who questioned his guests and callers. C-Span no longer does, so we hear the equivalent of the world is flat and the universe revolves around us. There are no such things as bacteria or viruses we can't even see...that will kill us. It's this way now all over the net so I describe myself politically as an ultra-moderate, rightwing, revolutionary...pacifist. I read and read and...read some more. Other than my music and pool, I read, listen to and watch what is going to be edifying. Much of these posts...are no longer that.
