Does this suit you better?

Play time of over... let's all go back and sit in our corners.

"Inferior life form"? "Suffer the same fate"?
Aren't you taking yourself a little too serious?

I'll give you an E for effort for your attempt at diversion...........but now yo'ure trying to make it look like it's you're signature in general that I had a problem with...

I could care less what signature you have under the rest of your posts....I do, on the other hand, have a problem with being called a "fool" without any prior provocation on my part in this thread.

I'm flattered that you allow what I say to affect you so much. I mean to just go on and on and on about it, means I really unearthed something major. It'll be OK. Don't worry so much about what I think and post.

Whatever helps you feel tingly and special.

Simple equation for you:

No unprovoked shots at me = no problem with me.

Doesn't even require long division or decimal places.

Do I really feel like reviewing this thread to see who is at the source of all this un-needed drama?

Ehhhh, no, so knock it off, the both of yahs.

I'll help you out. Mjf150 and myself had been having a civil discussion, with no problems whatsoever.......when out of nowhere, he makes THIS post, direct-quoting me and taking a personal shot:

A fools greatest attribute is that they are impermeable to reason and logic.


I was actually surprised to see it myself.

RE: Re: You
 
Mjf150-

Please refrain from any flame posts.

TheGambler-

Ok, but instead of allowing it to die, and for one of the mods to pick up on it, you felt the need to retaliate.

Let me ask you these questions-

Do you feel like he was referring to you as being the fool?

If the answer is yes, which it clearly seems to be, why do you care? If someone does not care for my opinion or me in general, there's nothing I can do about it. I feel like I bring a tremedous amount of knowledge to the board. I know when I'm right, and whether or not anyone else tends to agree with me, is not my problem. All I can do is lay down that knowledge in the hopes that someone is smart enough to see things from a different perspective. But I don't get wound up over it.

I don't see the point in calling someone a "fool" just because that person thinks the Saints will go 8-8 and into a wildcard berth. The whole point of a discussion board is to listen to all varying types of opinions in a RESPECTFUL manner.

If he had said "8-8, are you crazy?", that would have been one thing............but calling someone a fool is a personal shot, which as you may have noticed in the rules, is not something that's encouraged here.

The fact that he had ALREADY REPLIED to my quote, asking me "which other 6 teams will we beat?".....only to direct-quote the SAME QUOTE out of nowhere 4 or 5 posts later, calling me a fool...........leads me to believe he wanted nothing more than to start an argument. Without a shadow of a doubt, that was his only motivation for doing so. He can't claim that it was "heat of the moment", because it was completely random and out of nowhere. His only intention was to take a personal shot and start an argument, and he got his wish.

When I first got here, you said that me calling another moderator an "idiot" would under no circumstances be tolerated. Well, a poster taking an unprovoked shot at another poster should not be tolerated either.

It's not a matter of getting wound up, it's a matter of pointing out the obvious.
