Hal,
I sat here this morning and had to think before posting this response, not as long as you must have to post yours, but think about it and research it I did. What you might have called abrupt, or "morality Policing", I called shutting down a potentially hazardous thread(in one forum it worked, in the other it did not), or keeping the can of worms closed(so to speak). The person in question posted the same thing, quite rapidly, in two separate areas of the forum. First in the FFR sub forum
Here , then when he posted it to all talk Cobra
HERE I felt that he was not looking for feedback, but for stirring the pot. If that was not the case, then it's my fault and I accept the blame in it's entirety. However, as you can see from the original posting vs the all talk posting, the people who viewed my response thought it was appropriately written. Now you decide that it is not, write your own innuendo laced thread, and have everyone else blow things out of proportion. At one time you accused me of chasing you off this forum, well my friend, that shoe is on the other foot now. So, you have tried to play the devil, and the saint all in the same thread, while some will look at my post here with malice, others will see what your true intent was, as I, and several others have.
Now, with that said, we are both adults, we can agree to disagree on many subjects, but when it gets personal, then something has gone horribly wrong. When one person then sets his own morality on that of the person he is criticizing is a double standard I want no part of.
Now, with all of that said and out of my head, I have to ask, in Rons
new thread about setting up the FAQ, how many of those who cast a negative light here have offered to step up to the plate and assist in it's design and content??????My history here on CC in regards to assisting others, both on and off the forum speaks for itself. My give far outweighs my take in all aspects of life........................
I'm done. Let the rest of the chips fall where they may.
