Jeffff -> RE: Is it alright to insult someone for spelling of grammatical error and if not why... (8/19/2010 8:56:02 AM)

I don't have to mock. I am a volunteer.

My mocking is dependent upon the individual poster. It often meant in jest and usually taken that way.

In the case of this OP. It has been demonstrated to my satisfaction that mockery is called for.

This is based entirely on the content of his posts in other threads. All anyone needs to do is use the search function. You can see that it is all self inflicted.

I actually don't think his feeling is hurt. If it is, I am good with that.

Don't play stupid. You know I was speaking in general terms "you" as in people on the forum.

If after 2700 posts on this board and you still haven't figured out what I'm about..Other peoples issues should be the least of your worries. I believe you might have a comprehension problem.

My pups love me because I make sure they know I love them. Everyday as much as I have time for..Which winds of being a good bit. I'm a proud dad.


Not denying one bit about the pups.  I happen to be a cat person Myself.  The concept is the same.

I actually don't 'play' stupid.  I've never attempted to convince anyone that I am some kind of great intellectual here.  In fact, I've written several posts stating that I'm not.  In a fair self assessment (and what has been told to Me by others over the years) I make up for it with an abundance of common sense.

When it comes to the written word, I tend to have a very good memory if a matter is important to Me.  Sadly, I do have to admit that in those 2,700 posts of yours, I can't say that I do know what it is that you stand for.  (I've found that I wasn't alone in this.)  Most of My interactions with you have been banter, such as this one.  Perhaps I'll pick up more in the next 2,700.

As to people on the forum, I only take responsibility for Myself and one other.  I don't even do that in MP's case.  If at any time you feel that clip's conduct on these boards is out of line, feel free to contact Me.  If, upon My review, I agree with you assessment, I ensure you that the matter will be dealt with.

I type like shit. My spelling is even worse.

I have been mocked for years about it.

It has never made me cry and feel all put upon.

It is not my fault is people I don't know don't feel good about themselves.

It is not my job to make them feel better.

I know you have a post that follows this, but My question pertains to this one.

I've always interpreted the misspelling/correcting game that goes between you and Aileen to be something of a personal banter game that goes on between the two of you.  Not that she follows you around to pull it off or anything, but when it happens, it's kind of like an old habit that good friends will point out because it's always been that way.  Kind of like the guy you grew up with from down the street who never used to tie his shoes, and now you still have to remind him to tie his shoes before a business meeting.  Have I been wrong about that?

Not at all.... and it's not just Aileen(cunt that she is).

I have never minded it. I enjoy the banter..:)

Hey....compassion and understanding up till the last lines.
So it's okay to trounce those that you think are douchebags? I just want to know if that's the consensus on the boards? I'm cool with it if so.



I so missed this....

Listen up, you have a bad habit of twisting people's words to suit your agenda. I made observation, from MY perspective. Now if you think it is okay to try to dominate my feelings about the world, it isn't. I am allowed to pity or not pity whomever the fuck I like, and if you don't like it feel free to go to domiguy's thread and announce how you have blocked me[;)]

I'll tell you like I've recently told another. Your words were twisted when you said them. I see you didn't answer the question either. I'm sure you'll twist them next to fit what you need to believe about yourself.



The question was if I think it is "okay" to trounce on someone because they are a douchebag... Why are you asking me this question? I am making an OBSERVATION that these are the people who get attacked... I am also saying how this observation makes me feel, which is not predisposed to having sympathy for people who are making assholes out of themselves... not based upon how they spell, but because they are posting like assholes.

I am sure you think people post like assholes all the time, you certainly seem prickly in posting rambo-style posts... and are quick to give insult to people just because they don't agree with you... I think you need to look in the mirror for perpetrators of unkind comments.

If you go back through my nearly 17,000 posts you will not find ONE that attacks people for spelling mistakes... not ONE. I would rather attack their ideas....

Because he is unwilling to be direct[;)]

You accused me of being indirect... I wasn't. You are just being nasty to people who do not agree with you...

I thought you outgrew that, how unfortunate that isn't true

It is Jeffff's job to make laurel feel better. The rest of us he can piss off all he likes.

No what I was accusing you of was not owning up to it..Direct has never been a problem that I've seen. I don't think direct necessarily means what you think it does in this case.

Your speaking from friend to friend and I have no problem with that...I give and get a good ribbing on occasion myself...Yet it's done to complete strangers.

For the record I'm not just singling out a particular behavior as I am the multitude of them along with the spirit they were intended. That's what makes it petty to me.




juliaoceania -> RE: Is it alright to insult someone for spelling of grammatical error and if not why... (8/19/2010 11:15:18 AM)

I see what you are doing as stupid... just my opinion... and yeah, I own it




laurell3 -> RE: Is it alright to insult someone for spelling of grammatical error and if not why... (8/19/2010 11:16:09 AM)

When one really believes their behavior is wrong they do what they can to correct it. You've only gotten worse. You don't even address content, you just run around attacking people because you don't like them. It's not remotely close to mature or similar to the people that comment on incorrect, immature or idiotic viewpoints. You have a personal agenda that has NOTHING to do with arguing points. That is what forums are, whether you like it or not.

Now who's trying to read minds? lol

Sure it's the same. You attack those you think deserve it and I do the same but you'll pretend it's not true. This is a liar. I know this not from reading your mind but reading the way in which you do it.

I gave you that to see where you'd go with it. Thank you.

Well answer the question or is that too hard for you? Do you think it's okay or not?


I simply think this, that when people go on to a message board and troll, they are asking to get a response, why should I feel bad when they get what they want...

I also think you take the internet too seriously and should unplug yourself to deal with injustice in the real world instead of approaching a message board like it is Second Life. This isn't a hall and even if it were we already have monitors. You don't like someone's posts, hit report.

Lastly, I think you are a hypocrite for attacking posters you do not like and deriding others for the same sort of behavior... pot-kettle-black

This idea may strike you as novel Icarys, but while I sense you are intelligent, the maturity of your posts leave alot to be desired and I could give a fuck less what idea you find inspiring for me to address. There's no necessity to see inside your mind, you're incredibly transparent in your history of only baiting certain posters despite your assertation that you have changed. I'm completely uninspired by what you seem to view as thought-provoking concepts and don't have the inclination to argue with you. You're not worth the effort because of the foolish way you conduct yourself. Who do you think you are telling everyone who they should be? It's not appropriate. Clean your own house.

That's some sound advice..Now try and follow it.

As for the last part...I'm okay with that. It's intentional/hypocritical and I can turn it off when I like.

When did I say I have changed...I said I could turn it off as I did with the last person.
Maybe you should try a little of that yourself and keep your trap shut the next time you feel like bad mouthing someone.
