Allen R. said - " then I suggest If you have something to say that is going to rub someone the wrong way don't say it". Make sure you pass that advice along to almost everybody on these forums, Allen. Don't get me wrong, I've met some really decent folks here but I have also been here just long enough to have seen the worst kind of behavior, senseless bashing, foul language, slander, and pure OCD hatred to last a lifetime. I joined to interact with like minded folks that like knives. Turns out that far to many here are nothing more than trash talking fools spoiling for a fight just because they think it's fun and it has spread to every forum category. There is a warning about W&C but their poison has spread to the whole community. There are NO safe areas here any more. I think it's a damn shame that the Moderators don't do something to clean it up. That said, I'm smart enough to know that this place really isn't about knives. It's about money. There are several other knife forums where cretins aren't allowed to say whatever they want to. The conversations are about knives and not about how many times you can run the same old tired insults through your keyboard. Let's call it .............common decency. AND they don't charge you money to participate! Imagine that. They are easy to find if you look for them. This isn't the only game in town. Biggest never meant best.
Nah , that thread was started because you insulted one of the female members here.
OK ?

People really need to learn to stop posting in Whine and Cheese if they can't handle it there. Sure we rant and rave, poke and insult. If you can't do it without getting mad, or taking it serious stop going there. I was 19 when I came here and I sure didn't know any better than to get worked up over the insults. I left this place entirely for about 6 months over it and when I came back I just posted in other forums. After while some of the worst enemies I had here were requesting me on their friends list. (because believe it or not, I didn't come here for nothing but the knife content) I started going back in W&C and stopped getting mad about everything. I learned to laugh along and not care if I get insulted once in awhile. Until you learn to do that and learn to have a thick skin you should stay away from there and you definitely shouldn't carry anything from there to other forums.. I don't believe for a second anyone insults other members out of that sub forum though. It just isn't tolerated here.
By my count, you have a few warnings already under your belt.
:
First off....
I didn't threaten to ban you. I replied to your bottom line statement that you'll post where you want to, when you want to with my own bottom line statement that you are likely to be banned if you keep acting the way you do.
Your generally abrasive, self righteous and entitled behavior in regards to other posters whom don't agree with you and the forum, your having to correct even the slightest misconception of just about anything anyone else posts, Your general disregard for where/when you are posting and your disruption of decent threads with your issues and attitude is growing rather tiresome. It is disruptive to the forum as a whole. You've been spoken to about this behavior, yet you continue to feel as if you can do as you please here.
The long and short of it is..... this is a private forum. You don't really have and rights to free speech here other than what the owners and its moderators give you. No one is forcing you to be here or participate. If you or anyone else, doesn't like being here or like the way the site is moderated, your best course of action is to use the log out button and not come back.
Burma Shave.He was right, dead right, as he sped along, but he's just as dead as if were was wrong.
Childish retaliation was the motive then? Instead of being a grown man, and turning the other cheek...you felt the need to insult a woman and get up to your neck in a place you obviously had no business being in? Understand that you like other people can be abrasive especially when you start beating your "I like clone and Chinese homage knives " drum every chance you get. Especially on e same forum that those original manufacturers are also on. It's disrespectful to say the least. Akin to walking into someone's home, dropping a giant deuce on the floor and giving them a look like, "well, aren't you going to clean that up? Whatcha gonna do about it anyway?"
Just my opinion of the situation.
Never took it the wrong way when people bashed me, and said all kinds of stuff. Sure I got hot headed for a day, who doesn't?
Well you cant say she wasnt asking for it. She chose to make post after post of colorful comments about me without even knowing me. If she is gonna throw punches she should be able to take a few herself. I even apologized for a couple of the comments. Still though, you cant tell me that she had good intentions. She posted insult after insult and finally I said something back. If she wanted respect she wasnt exactly going about it the right way.
Trust me, it happens. A few of them have the infractions to prove it. But jill seeing this is out of the area Im not a fan of I want to take this moment again to apologize to you for my use of the C word against you. I know your dont care. You have made that clear. But I still feel like I want you to understand that apology was sincere despite our disagreements.
I was speaking of recent events in relation to the topic. I have not had any warnings or infractions except for one for language. The last one before that was over a year ago.
Again it would appear we have a disagreement. If you are going to say that my behavior which hasnt earned me a warning or infraction is going to earn me a banishment if I keep up with it that would appear as a threat to ban me if I dont fall in line with your idea of how I should be acting. Honestly Karda I dont think my "abrasive" attitude is the problem here. I think you dont like that I have an opinion that conflicts with yours. Because many people all day long are combative and argumentative on this forum including yourself. It would appear that if my opinion fell in line with your own ideals then I might not come under your radar as much. This forum is full of different personalities. Some easy going others not so much. But you seem to take a particular interest in shutting me up. So it would appear its not so much my behavior that is the problem but the opinion influencing that behavior. For you to sit there and say im going to get banned if I keep up "my current behavior" yet you have people calling me expletives outside whine and cheese, and others with no authority of their own trying to tell me where I can and cannot post. That was who my comment was aimed at. People with no authority themselves who feel they have the right to tell me where I can and cannot post and about what topics. Many of your friend Karda are just as quick with the tongue as I am and are just as combative. The only difference is you find their opinion more favorable than mine. What Im getting at is equality. I dont believe you moderate with that in mind. I think your quick to shut people down when you dont share their opinion and very laxed with people you do.
Despite what you may think I dont have a problem with authority. I respect Moderators like Gollnick. He has tact. And while me and him dont see eye to eye on almost anything he observes and doesnt try to use his authority to influence what people will and will not say. Of all the moderators it would seem you are the only one that I bump heads with consistently. Why is that? If my actions were as bad as you seem to think they are why has no action such as infractions or warnings taken place? Is that not how a person on the forum is to learn they are being out of line? You really look at all the people on this forum. All the personalities. Many people operate very similar how I do. They have strong opinions and will defend them. I think your real problem with me is what my opinions are and that they conflict with your own.
Yes you did. All of your closed threads are proof.
Also, a lot of people are not hot headed. Like the mods, who are quite patient and understanding but are firm and will keep the peace as well. The reason you two are "hated" here is because you both have that "Haters gonna hate" attitude.
I will hate, but I see you two say you won't care.
But obviously you will care, since you keep up the fight.
On another note: this thread is just ridiculous. You deserve to get banned, and no sympathy will be thrown your way
(especially after complaining 24/7)
Rant over, have a nice day.
By my count, you have a few warnings already under your belt.
