Posting in Good Faith Clarification Request

[Chris]

Yes, and it is you and your crowd that want the control and for others to shut up. It cracks me up that the so called small government contingent needs a messageboard that is nannied to suit them.

And you continue to make things up. No one has tried to shut you up, marie, what I and others are doing is pointing out your lack of participating in and contributing to discussion IN THE HOPES THAT YOU WILL BEGIN TO DO SO.

Try it, you might like it!




Now here's the true test of that: I would love more than anything to engage you in discussion on this very point. Will you join me in discussing it? Let's see who wants to discuss and who just want to diss, distract, disturb, and dissemble.

Can we all just please let it go and just give opinions on the topics? I truly truly do not understand why that's so difficult to do.

Watch watch watch,

Here's how it should be:

Me: I think OWS is a good movement because of....

opposition: I think OWS has failed because of .....


Here is how it often is and how it shouldn't be:


Me: I think OWS is a good movement because of....

opposition: OWS is a bunch of liberal ass holes that $#@! on the street. You're stupid for supporting them, do you $#@! on streets too?


soooooo easy to see the difference isn't it?

That's what I've been asking for too.

This thread was intended simply as a request for clarification of the good faith guideline. The mods said they were discussing and would report back. That should have been the end of it till they do. But I can't help what those who despise rules to begin with do to hijack the thread and turn it into a personal pissing contest, pardon my french.

Thanks, BTW, for your contributions.

You're complaining, happy. I don't have a problem with that, just pointing it out.

No, I am not complaining. Wondering aloud why somebody is doing something is not complaining. Finding what they are doing to be weird is not complaining.

She never said you were trying to shut her up. Those complaining about people making things up shouldn't do so themselves...

And posters who do nothing but try to "take care of" posters they don't care for have no standing to complain at all. He should stop whining.

case in point. willow asked a question yesterday. i answered that question. the whiner misread the answer or intentionally misrepresented it. the next x number of posts were spent in discussion, not about the asked and answered question but about his misreading and misstatement of my answer to willow... until yet another thread got closed because of a nonsensical and unnecessary discussion.

I must say, though, I truly appreciate the way diverse posters can get together laughing at him.

His biggest problem - and it is a problem - is that he thinks he's the smartest guy in the room....

I'm closing this for moderation review.
