skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell
 

this is just a post for ole skydog and ryan s....you can ban my 2 previous ids...and you know what they are (for those lacking harly/harleybeans)
this message will probably be erased and i dont care..you might even ban my IP again..i dont care...but i told skydog id be back...be a man skydog..if you make accusations and perceptions...prove them and back them up..do the research..i am no veteran of this board..i just chose to make a post at an bad time i guess...you all wrap yourselves up in wondering who is behind the computer typing messages...
i emailed ryan s 4 times explaining to him the situation...he failed to respond to me at any time except for a lame email asking what my id was...so i took actioin on my own...
i explained the situation to skydog..and his respons was...whaaaaaaa.."i dont have to prove anything".TOUGH CRAP SKYDOG..be a man..make assumptions, accusations, whatever..prove your point..you will spend your days wondering if i am some "veteran" of this board and you will not take the time and effort to prove anything...whine some more..
you accused me of defending horns...i did no such thing..reread my posts in the thread "guess who horns is..." nowhere in that post am i defending anyone...just pointing out the fact that he apparently got to you...i even mentioned that i didnt know what he did so how can i be defending him...make some sense man!
i am not trying to fight with anyone..i voiced my opinion just like i am voicing it now...which frankly i have a right to do....ryan s and skydog decided to only act in a juvenile manner and ban someone for no reason and no proof...this is the kind of board you all run then i want no part of it and have no problem being banned again or banning my IP...knock yourselves out...
i am no veteran of this board..i am nobody in disguise...just a regular guy like the rest of you...who if i had 1000 posts my opinion would of been fine and nothing would of happend...but because i had 4..i get banned...hypocrites!
i told you ryan s and skydog that i would be back and i was right...ban me again..i dont care..i dont need message board buddies....

If you don't care..why post??

to prove a point...why do you think...same question i asked skydog..if he didnt care...why ban me?

He does care...he has a responsibility to moderate the boards

Thats like way too long and way too poorly written to even try to read.

if you have 4 posts here, why even bother. There's a great website called www.sosuave.com that has a killer message board. Check it out.

But Bishop, poor writing mechanics can trick people into agreeing with him!!!

Brutus,

Please see the Personality Disorder thread.

There is help out there.

hey, flame away! thats what we do best.

he makes some good points, but eh, no one cares..

way to go bishop...i use more than one period and you bash my writing skills? i wish i would of thought of that myself..
yeah i do care as for as being accused of being someone i am not...i DONT care if i am banned.
Maybe I should work on my writing skills? Maybe I will type correctly. I could use capital letters where they are required and stuff like that.
its typical....there seem to be others who disagree with what some of you are saying about horns...but because i said something with only a few posts under my belt i am banned..make sense out of that guys.
skydog wasnt moderating anything...he was assuming something and that was all. he and ryan acted poorly and they are afraid to admit it.

"skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell" - and you're arguing that Skydog and Ryan S are juvenile?

and the fan boys are off!!!! Who cares about points?
Actually I dont know what this is about and I don't know who does so I should't say anything but I can see the predictable responses have already started and will continue for the next three pages.

you got it! glad you are paying attention. perception and assuming does not make a person right..i acted professionally toward them..emailed them..messaged skydog..all i got from the was crap...crap from skydog and no response at all from ryan...neither of them could back up their claims..watch it guys..you go against them and you can end up like horns i guess...banned...
they dont moderate...they just judge people on what they say..this is a message board where people voice their opinions...dont have to like them...

shorty, no offense intended here, but could you go through Mr. Brutus' first post and pick out some quotes that demonstrate some of his good points? I looked, but I couldn't find shit.

Thanks.

well maybe you need to reread it again Cam...shorty doesnt have to point out anything to you.
but i will...
judging is the name of the game here...not proof..accusing and skydogs little perceptions..take that to the bank.

Cam, baby

http://www.ehs.berkeley.edu/pubs/factsheets/36fecal.html

ummmmm so what is this all about? did i miss something while i was at work tonight?

Finally, soemone understands.. :(

Re: skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell
 

I managed to find this gem buried amongst the ellipses. If you've been banned twice, you want no part of this board, and you don't care if you're banned again because you don't need message board buddies, then for the love of all that is holy, why are you here?

you make no sense, you have no point, you have no case.

good night.

Cam, did you even read it?

Everyone just jumped to the conclusion that it was Horns.. so he was banned. Does that mean nothing?

Re: skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell
 

Nobody here started with a 1000 post, and everyone has an opinion, So there goes that arguement.

Re: Re: skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell
 

cam, dont read too much into stuff.
im not making message board buddies, thats obvious right now isnt it? you do miss the point. i want no part of this board if they will ban you for no reason and no backing! i make sense, and apparently some see my points and i do have a case, its just that you choose not to see it because you are afraid to rock the boat.

bishop, he's saying if say..... Bee (RANDOM NAME :)) were to post that exact post, he'd get more respect, because he's a well known member, and wouldn't be thought to be HM without proof or whatever.

And that's a damned good point and a damned shame.

Apparently you DO want somethin to do with this board or else you would have left already

It's got to be somebody like Hornsmaniac or the sort. You think somebody just stubled upon this board, never posted anything about FOF and then gets this bent out of shpae about getting banned? I mean, I think at some point everyone came here because of TCY or FOF and then just started posting about other things. But this "brand new" guy immediately starts posting exlusively in the Hornsmaniac thread. Very improbable.

Re: Re: skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell
 

sorry bishop. my argument isnt gone. the ONLY reason i was banned was cause i had few posts and went against the consensus and apparently made 2 guys assume something. others who had numerous posts had said worse stuff than i about the horns situation..either in defense or disgust yet they werent banned because they had numerous posts...i was banned and accused of being a veteran in hiding because i had too few posts. pay attention..read the whole post not just a part of it man.

Re: Re: Re: skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell
 

So what is your question about FOF? Or how did you happen to stumble upon this board?

Re: Re: skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell
 

You can't seriously deny that theres a good ol' boy network here to some extent, and theres nothing inherently wrong with that, its human nature. Thats really not the point. The point is that he was banned because it was assumed he was someone he wasn't (I Think).

I'll reserve judgement till I hear both sides, but I'm not gonna automatically jump on this guy. I'm gonna hear him out. I know SkyDog has earned the benefit of the doubt, but I still think people should try to be at least a little objective.

^^^

listen to that guy

i wasnt "new" i had been a registered member for months and just posted a message at the wrong time...that is my fault.
i am registerd at many other boards, .400 studios, EU2, and some others and very rarely post unless there is something that i decide i want to say...and the treatment i get is accusations and assumptions.
and i guess maybe i do care..i care that i voice an opinion and am kinda new and get banned for what i see as no reason.

Re: Re: Re: Re: skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell
 

i surf the board for new things..patches etc about the game and sometimes interesting topics just to read them and others opinions. i like to read different points of view that many of you have.
anything wrong with that???

I don't see anywhere in his post, unless I just missed something that says he was accused of BEING anyone, just defending hornsmaniac.

Maybe that was something in the initial post that he got banned for, but even with that aside, this isn't the way to handle it.

Seriously Brutus, if you feel you were wronged and wanted to make your case, a wild, semi-coherent rant with the title you chose was not a good way to make it.

bishop, i handled it by emailing ryan 4 times!!! no response except for a "what is your ID?". i handled it by messaging skydog and all i got was..."i dont have to prove anything".
and i wasnt defending horns because i have no idea what he did to defend.
maybe you are right that this isnt the way to handle it, but when i try to handle it professionally and i am ignored or sidestepped then i make it public.

youre probably right...read post above...ill apologize about the thread title.

Well it if makes you feel any better I have about 350 posts and about 250 of them have ended threads. (maybe I will get lucky and this post will end this thread)

Re: Re: Re: skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell
 

Theres either a seriously huge 'good ol boy network' or theres a seriously small 'I agree with everything that goes against the majority network' because the same 5 people agreeing with this guy is the same people who agreed Hornsmaniac was treated unfairly in the first place.


I don't agree or disagree with this guy, because what he has posted thus far hasn't made a lick of sense. I don't know if its cause how it was posted or just something he left out but so far all he was done is justify his ban.

But if he wanted to just get it off his chest or whatever, that's cool but he buried himself by attacking Ryan.S and Skydog instead of just stating facts an letting everyone decide on their own.

Brutus, make PMing an option for your name for a sec.

shower, shit, and shave... cleanly boys don't misbehave

Re: Re: Re: Re: skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell
 

Are you serious?

Wow.. :rolleyes:

"I'll reserve judgement till I hear both sides, but I'm not gonna automatically jump on this guy. I'm gonna hear him out. I know SkyDog has earned the benefit of the doubt, but I still think people should try to be at least a little objective."

Had he come one and pleaded his case in a mature way, I'm sure he would have gotten a much different response. The responses in this thread is consistent with the responses I have seen in other threads started by 'new' members in a similar fashion.

And considering how Shorty has acted in non-HM threads, that's pretty good evidence that SkyDog doesn't just go around banning people who just disagrees with him.

Re: Re: Re: Re: skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell
 

problem with that is you wont decide on your own..the thread was meant to grab your attention and it did that. i fully went into it expecting not to be agreed with and that is fine. like i said read my other thread in the "guess who horns is" and there you will see that i am immediately accused of being him!
that is judging and deciding with no facts bishop. that is what sky dog did and its total crap.

I can agree with the fact that this wasn't the best way to explain your side of the story and gain support, but at the same time look at it from Brutus' angle. He thinks he was being punished without due process. Now which one of you wouldn't get upset about that? If what he is saying is true, thats f*cked up, but at the same time I'm not gonna assume it is. Were just gonna have to wait till tomorrow when Sky Dog responds, and by then we probably won't give a sh*t.

Judging from his posting rate maybe it's the return of dolamite.

LMAO :D

What do you mean?

Hate to break it to you, pj.. but by tomorrow, Brutus will be no longer exist as a member, due to this thread.

Re: skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell
 

Before I get into this, I have a couple of quick points to make:

1) We have no idea what the situation is. Or we have one side of the situation. For those bashing Skydog and Ryan, I'm wondering why you haven't bothered to look at the other side first.

2) Telling the two moderators to rot in hell is NOT going to get you the respect you are seeking.

3) Writing a poorly worded essay is also not going to get you the respect you are seeking.

4) You people REALLY need to learn what a fanboy is. Most of the people against HM have been bitterly critical of Skydog in the not so distant past and have not been banned. I've yet to see a single person banned for simply calling Skydog a jerk. This is far from a fanboy haven.

OK, so what can we read into the message above? Well, the first line tells anyone other than Skydog or Ryan S not to read it.

is is just a post for ole skydog and ryan s"

We then get into accusations that Skydog made and asking Skydog to back them up. At this point, we have zero idea what accusation Skydog ever made. If anyone did get by the first line, they are probably gone by this point in the essay.

Then we finally figure out a little bit of what this is about. This is followed by "I don't care what happens to me" and then a long winded explanation that if he had 1000+ posts none of this would be happening.

Now, I could be wrong, but I believe Horns had over 1000 posts, so Skydog has proven that post count isn't a criteria for removal already.

I need more facts before determining wheather your post has merit or not. The way it was written leads me to lean against you from the start. . . sorry, that's just me.

TroyF

"Judging from his posting rate maybe it's the return of dolamite."

Like the return of George Foreman to boxing, we need a star to return to lift FOFC back up to the glory days. :D

Shorty, I have seen you on several occasions poke subtle (and not so subtle) jabs at SkyDog and the forum in general over the banning of HM in threads that have nothing to do with it. It's like every single post you make recently (that I have seen) is either a mean spirited jab at someone or the board in general.

Now, I'll admit I don't read every thread, but of the ones I have read, it would appear that Bishop is right in that there are a few people here that argue or otherwise "attack" everyone else because they are disgruntled at the board in general over the whole HM thing.

(note, attack is in quotes simply because I could not find a better word. I hope you know what I mean...)

(2nd note: I don't mean ATTACK, but...well, I can't think of a good word for it...bah)

good one troyf.
i apologize to everyone for the poor essay structure. i didnt realize i was being graded and still in school.
shorty is right, i will be banned tomorrow probably.
skydog banned me because he assumed i was a veteran...ONE OF YOU ALL...in disguise and was afraid to come out and voice my opinions in my real ID. ask him tomorrow and if hes honest that is what he will tell you. maybe he saved the aol message we had. i should of.
oh and i dont know how to pm on this thing shorty or anyone else. my aol/yahoo id is emptyeightch...pm me that way

If anyone has such a big problem with the board and the people on it, or how it is ran... Nobody makes you come back... If your unfairly banned, better the reason to leave.


That was the thing with Horns, he would say he got attacked in every post, well why keep coming back then???

If you think the board is ran so biased, the internet is like 50% messageboards... goodluck, have fun.

TroyF you just repeated what I said in my last 2-3 posts.

Right there, that's all you had to say.

Brutus, it has nothing to do with grading and school. It has to do with how easy it is for someone to read. If it takes someone 2 or 3 times as long to read what you write as opposed to a well written message, they will either 1) Not read it, 2) Read it, but by the end simply not care, 3) Think you're an idiot.

Now explain to me how any of those 3 things accomplishes any of your goals.

I guess I was absent a few days, because I have no idea what the "hornsmaniac situation" is that created all of this.

Until this thread I have had good-spirited posts. I was really, really pissed off when I found out couriers was deleted.. at his own request though. But since we talked I have been in a good mood here, until this stuff.

you read the post didnt you? enough said

Ok, well then I take it back. I guess that statement was too strong. I was just bringing up an observation. I probably have missed your pasts these past few days. So if you have cooled down, then cool. We cool?

Not to antagonize you Troy, because you do seem to be more of a voice of reason than most, but I don't want to alighn myself with any side here. I just think that there should be more of a level of objectivity and just because I'm pointing that out I have been put on the anti-SkyDog side.

This is always the lamest post.. dude, this one thread or those string of threads does not reflect on the entire board. Horns liked the discussions, he didn't like being bashed..

Same with everyone else man, no one likes being trashed, but even if they are, they would still enjoy the other topics...

"you read the post didnt you? enough said"

Actually I only got about half way through when I came to conclusion that only an idiot could write this badly...

bishop, i dont feel you all are attacking me. im well aware that the majority will defend skydog in his actions. im not mad at you (and im sure you wouldnt care if i was) or anyone else but skydog and the lack of a response from ryan. and honeslty its not mad that i am, its more of irritation that people automatically jump to conclusions. i also am not asking anyone to agree with me w/o reading/hearing skydogs side. that is only fair. there is usually 3 sides to every story, mine, his, and the truth right? this is my side.

Re: Re: Re: Re: skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell
 

I think itsmade tons of sense, and everything this "small group" says makes sense continuosly...i have supported HM in threads, so you make call me one of the few, but i honestly see this point so clear...he goes after ryan and skydog because they are the ones that went after him...his old accounts he was very active at telling the facts to everyone, and the majority turned away blind to the facts due to your suppost of Sky...

I am and have been a big fan of what this board does...its not just an FOF board, the dynasties and hattrick forums are great, and i once thought GD was great...i started off a so called "dynasty boy," sticking to that forum and avoiding the general discussion in favor of tales of X-Com and many others...then i was slowly pulled in with interests to the GD when everyone got along like in the Dynasty forum(where everyone still gets along)...HM was not even a member yet, as were many of you not yet at this board...ive been here for 2+ years...only recently have i begun posting more frequently due to a problem i see...the "majority"(like 20 out of 2,500) is turning into the fanboys i was so gald our board didn't have...since then this board and GD hav become less and less fun, and i again find myself sticking to the dynasty forum and hattrick now much more than the GD....it used to be a place where we had honorable intellectual debates, and now we only argue...im sorry you are oblivious to the points made, but they are valid points...don't discredit it because of his lack of posts...shorty and i are two big posters on this board(with shorty having the # and me the experience...) Take time and actually read their posts...you might actually agree with a few...you don't have to agree, but you can respect them for what they are...i believe south park said it best:"Tolerance just means putting up with something....you dont have to like it..." Do me a favor and read the first post...then respond

As for myself, I can say that I don't like to take a side unless both parties are present, so I can't make a judgment either way. What I can say is that someone who enters the forum with a newly created account, a chip on his shoulder, and a thread titled "skydog and ryan s. can rot in hell" has already lost creadibility in my book.

you know that Roll Call Thread? This one's TROLL CALL. Seriously Brutus. +1 for honestly believing what you do, -10,000,000,000 for style and and coherency.

not looking for credibility stider.
and i already apologized for the thread title and wish i could edit it, but cant.

Brutus can't take his title back now. He was pissed. I'd probably post something worse if it had happened to me.

Read the post and quit using these excuses that he is an idiot or a guy with poor english skills. If he wanted to, he could write with capital letters.. it isn't difficult, as he said.

This is annoying.

He wasn't just being trashed out of no where, there were things he would say or threads he would start... and he HAD to know he would get trashed... but he did it anyway, then cried foul afterwards.

If I start a thread about how bad this board sucks for example, I'm gonna get flamed not because those people are 'fanboys' , but because they like the board... and the arguement is IF you don't like it, then nobody is keeping you here.

and it has crap to do with one post, If every single post about this subject is that the board is ran awfully or unfairly, then the rest of the topics aren't gonna change that.

Its a lame post because they either deal with how the board is ran, they bitch and complain, or they leave... and the second one likely is gonna get that person banned or trashed after a while.

Noone can make everyone happy.

boy i guess im in the hole pretty deep huh? how many posts to i need to rectify that? (note the sarcasm, do i need a smiley?)

Shorty - is Brutus your father or something. quit holding his dick. he can talk for himself.

good one

So can skydog and ryan s.....:rolleyes:

"and he HAD to know he would get trashed... but he did it anyway, then cried foul afterwards."

Sounds familiar. ;)

(CALM DOWN, it was a joke, sheesh)

(preemptive strike. :) )

PJ,

One, the post was long. By the time I posted it, there were nearly 15 more posts I hadn't read when I started it.

I don't care about people antagonizing, nor does Skydog. I've seen people rip him to shreds and he hasn't banned them.

Brutas,

Still in school? Yes, when you make a public rant about your hatred for somebody, how you make your point has a lot to do with how much respect you get. Try going into a job interview with unwashed jeans, a baseball cap and a five o'clock shadow and see if you get the job. . . no matter how good your points are.

The title of the thread pretty much sealed your fate from my end. Trying to get through that incoherent garbage gave me even less reason to care about your cause.

If your 4 emails to Skydog and Ryan S. were anything like the rant above, I'm not surprised in the least they banned you. Skydog will NOT ban people for simply speaking out against him. He also doesn't take banning people lightly. He gave HM chances after many people in this forum called for his head. To play martyr and pretend otherwise is doing him a great disservice.

TroyF

Now that is a good one.

do you read what you post.
1) my essay structure has absolutely nothing to do with interviews or my job etc. etc. i have a good job, i can spell, and make complete sentences. this is a message board and i type freely and no, i dont take the time to write it in essay form because i dont have to.
2) the title sealed my fate. fine. it wasnt meant to make friends.
3) pay attention. i emailed ryan not skydog. ryan never responded and i imagine it is because he had nothing to prove and skydog was in control.
4) apparently skydog does take banning people lightly because he banned me from his assumption, which was wrong, and which he could and would not even try to prove. he assumed i was one of you.

well, there's 20 minutes of my life I'll never get back......

if only this were a televised debate.....

I tried to read this thread and I still have no idea what is going on.

First off, Brutus, are you sure that Skydog thought you were Hornsmaniac? I seem to remember from the other thread that SD never said who you were, but that there was some reason to ban you. I'm just seeking information so I know what the hell is going on. I thought it was someone other than HM.

Second, try to take a consistent stand and just state what you mean. Throwing in stuff like saying you don't care if you banned just distracts from the issue because your post proves you obviously DO care.

Third, without knowing what happened in these PM's, isn't possible that Ryan just hasn't gotten back to you (it has only been a day)? And I would be interested to know what you said to SD before he said he didn't have to prove anything. I imagine if it was anything like the first post in this thread, you wouldn't receive a very positive response.

I have no sides on this issue, but somebody please tell me what is going on here.

It is in times like these that we must go back to our favorite philospher and see what advice he has....and here it is:

"Why are you such an angry young man, when your future looks quite bright to me?"--Jason Tobias

never said skydog said i was horns. in fact he said he didnt think i was horns when i messaged him. he said he thought i was an fof veteran hiding with a new id and banned me for that reason. it was in the original thread "guess who horns is.." that i was thought to be horns right away because of my post count. also, skydog never explained to anyone what his reasons were am i mistaken?
ryan did get back to me for one message, so it wasnt a lack of time. he asked me "what is your id" and that was it.
what i said to skydog in the messages was for him to prove that i was someone, and take the time to research it before banning me. he said he didnt have to prove anything and didnt care and that his stance would not change. we went back and forth on this for awhile. i acted much differently to him than the thread of this post. i acted out of disgust with the thread of this post and have apologized for it, but cant take that back. skydog never gave me a chance to prove anything nor did he prove any of his perceptions and assumptions. anything else?

1) your essay structure DOES have everything to do with how much respect you get here. I don't care about spelling or wheather you catch every comma. I do care about how quickly it takes me to figure out what you are trying to say.

2) Your title "pretty much" sealed your fate. You'll note I still took the time to read through the paragraph of nonsense before I came to my conclusions.

3) I said Skydog and Ryan S. The two mods do speak to each other. If you wrote to Ryan S., I find it hard to believe Skydog never heard about the mail.

4) Those are facts I don't have yet. I have your side of the story. When I have Skydog's, I'll form my own opinion. Skydog's history has earned him that right. Your response and the way you went about making your case after being banned causes me to lean his way already. I don't care wheather you like that or not.

TroyF

well heres a nugget for you to play with troy.
essay structure has nothing to do with life except for a few things and one of those things is certainly NOT this forum.
if that is all you have, or rather one of your key pts. to bash me with then that is sad.
and my post is not nonsense. it is fact and it is what happened. skydog and ryan can fill your eyes with their side all they want, but if they are honest and men then what happened will come out in the end. i was acting properly toward them yesterday and today until i had enough of their sidestepping.
and i dont remember asking if you were leaning my way and if i liked it or not. stop assuming things. enough of that has already been done the last 2 days.

Hey Troy, it's spelled "whether". If you can't learn to spell right, I just won't be reading your posts anymore. :)

Chief Rum

"essay structure has nothing to do with life except for a few things and one of those things is certainly NOT this forum."

If members of this forum decide to not take you seriously because you write like an 8 year old, then it certainly does have something to do with it.

i dont no why no body is listening to what i have to say when i am saying it very clear i am not a master of disguise i am just a guy posting here. i think that i am not gettin thru to u people for some reason but i just cant tell what youre problem is and i think you guys should all listen to me now BECAUSE I AM TRYING TO TELL U SOMETHING SO LISTEN NOW and i think u guys think i am still in school i am not in school so there. so why should he ban me i dont care if im banned but my id may be banned but i dont care so there and why doesnt anyone understand what i am sayin to them i am talking ENGLISH HERE FELLAS and ladies if there are any ladies here BUT I DOUBT THERE ARE LADIES HERE ANYWAY WHICH IS WHY I DONT CARE IF IM BANNED BUT SINCE IM BANNED IM VERY VERY UPSET so why dont you just tell me why i should be banned instead of talkin like im in school cause im not in school i already told you guys that so tell me somethin i dont no already why dont ya and if u dont like it go to hell all of u.

:rolleyes:

I have no idea why your complaints are falling on deaf ears, Brutus.

Good one, KWhit. That's classic!

IBTL, IBTB, Kirby Puckett...

I'd just like to break in here and say:

Welcome to Front Office Football Central, Brutus! I'm sure you'll fit in nicely in our community. :p

Bad form, KWhit...you forget the ellipses (or is it ellipse or ellipsi?).

Chief Rum

did you take all night to do that? has no comparison to anyway i type. you are out of line and proved yourself to be an idiot.

You're so right, Brutus. No ellipses and no odd sentence breaks. He doesn't write like you at all.

Chief Rum

Well I was going for the "More Recent Brutus". If you noticed he dropped the ellipses after his first few posts. He is definitely refining his "style".

see, heres the new problem. i made my points that you all read and either agree/disagree with. now you have to resort to essay structure bashing, elipses, odd sentence breaks etc. etc. because you have nothing else to bash about. you have all probably at one time or another witnessed this same treatment before, and that is why some of you came out and agreed and understood what i said. those who didnt decided to bash my essay structure, or like the last guy, try and mimmick me.

I post in a similar manner to Brutus....does that mean you don't respect me? I believe that i am a very intellectual person, and have only disagreed with you on this one point(be it HM, Brutus, or whoever the FOTM...flame of the moment...at least i thought it was clever:( ;) )...Does my posting stlye have anything to do with your respect for me as a poster?

If it does than im sorry but that is simply pathetic. Im not some hot chick who you judge immediately(i do that all the time). I believe that posters on this board deserve to be heard out. Do you all not also agree?

you werent going for the more recent anything KWhit. you are just trying to be funny and make message board pals. as for refining my "style"...sure why not......................have to make things easier for the lacking to understand i guess.

Well, as they say, mockery is the highest form of flattery. I guess I'll be struggling to sleep tonight cuz I didn't get the Brutus Seal of Approval to disagree with you.

BTW, I did manage to struggle through that slop you call a first post. It took me a while, but I did it. I really have nothing else to offer except humor at this point, as what I have to say has already been well-stated by others (most accurately by TroyF). I guess I await on word from SkyDog to hear all sides of this, than I can determine what my opinion is.

Until then, I guess you'll just have to learn to deal with my baited humor. ;)

Chief,

Never claimed I was the best speller in the world. :) :)

If you choose not to take my posts seriously, you have that right. :)

Brutus,

If you don't care what I (or others on this forum) think, why bother writing a post at all?

As for essay structure and life. . . read Sab's post.

KWhit,

Sadly, that post is a bit long for a quote of the moment nomination. If we had essay of the moment, you'd be a shoe in for essay of the year. :) Thanks for the laugh. :)

Why is respect always an issue on message boards, and it's always directly related to how many post and how long a person has been around?

anyways, no I don't respect you, but not because anything you do or don't do.

It has shit to do with respect, just his post was a pain in the arse to read... having to try to read it several times myself because it was mostly just rambling.

Ouch....score one for the offense;) . I still think the best ay to shut them up is what i said in response to Hell Atlantics dick comment earlier to Shorty...If you would all like me to repeat it i would be more than obliged:p .

Round two...DING!!
I always love arguing with you guys...we should do this more often:D

Dude, just having a little fun at your expense. It was too easy. I had to do it.

The point many of us are making is that if you really have a valid point to make, you will get it across much better if people can actually read and understand it. When most people see a huge blob of text with no capital letters in it, (not to mention a thread title telling someone to "rot in hell") they tend to ignore whatever you are trying to say.
