Title: Personal Attacks Thread
Post by: ?Impact on June 12, 2019, 12:17:56 pm
I find it hard to find and follow all the personal attacks, so I thought I would start a specific thread to keep them all in one place. It would really simplify my day if anyone has a comment directed at someone else, and not at the topic at hand they would put it in this one place. Then we would all know exactly where to come to get caught up on the latest.

Good idea. Provides an off ramp for you know who. ;)

other than the babyRue label, these recent posts are hardly personal 'attacks', but hey... the waldo abides!  8)

You get NO leeway from me anymore.

(https://pics.me.me/thumb_keep-calm-and-finish-him-mortal-kombat-41897226.png)

... start a thread on civility and show how its done.

"how it's done"... is you quit playing up the drama, quit playing your victim-card. And just get over the fact (at least) 6 other members called you out on your purposeful tl;dr posts. Stop the drama/victim playing/tl;dr posting - show how it's done!

Do you see how long her verses are?

Also I am glad your CBC and CTV has shortened the news to ten second sound bites. I knew anything longer was getting confusing.

 ;D get over it! Just quit posting your tl;dr posts - show how it's done! Of course, it would mean you can't hide within your GishGallop... it would mean you'd actually have to discuss/debate isolated items! Which you can't do.

In the mean time while you finish me off, I will challenge your bullying and trolling on this board and the double standards of Omni or Granny or anyone else. Its called freedom of speech.

bring it babyRue - if you can find time between playing the victim and running to the mod! Or, just stop with the purposeful tl;dr posting - how simple is that, hey!  ;D

riddle me this: when you go to such lengths to drop your long-winded toooooooooo long posts, when you're told by many members they don't read your lengthy screeds, what audience are you playing to? Other than yourself - your captive audience of ONE!

waldo public service: moved to the appropriate thread

As for Granny or anyone who calls me a family member of holocaust survivors a supporter of genocide I will call them out.

Hope that is clear. Those are not the words of a victim. Those are the words of someone who comes from a legacy where we said never again in the face of bullies.

those are some major matzah balls ya gots there - swingin' freely!

I will say this one time Waldo and Omni try bully me or anyone, I  will challenge you directly.
Bring it baby? You think hiding  behind the length of my past posts or your anonymity and lack of being moderated on this board makes you tuff guys? Lol.

Nuff said.

While I will not engage either of you on threads I think on this off thread its time someone else told the two of you to grow up.

wait, what? It's you... not me... hiding behind the length of your purposeful tl;dr posts - that's YOU!

queenie, you wear drama well!

Goddess is such a ****.

Hardly. I appreciate your point. I am trying my best. I would love though to just once say  EAT ME. I doubt he's kosher. Hey Godess my family survived the holocaust so having someone presume to tell me I support genocide because I tried to  debate a view they opposed on a thread hit a nerve so I told the person. Then of course I  had Chip n Dale chirp in. I did ignore them on the thread. I have only engaged them some times on an off thread about rules but I will stop that now I had my say. I hope you understand why. Yah I knew it would set off Starsky and Hutch again. Oh well. Lol. If you are a **** I am a Frankenstein, actually Count Dracula.

I apologize to you if you think I am in any way responsible for the atmosphere on the forum. I am trying my best but some days I feel I have to stand up to bullying and I always have  a good laugh to at myself too.. The latest  Finish em of stuff is hilarious.. I had no idea  I was going to be chased by irate villagers with pitchforks and torches.

Finish em off. Damn they have been trying to do that to me and my ancestors for as long time. All that happens is it  makes more of us turn into lawyers, doctors, stand up comedians.  Yah the Old Testament and Talmud are lengthy. My people tend to write a lot. Ironically my people's males in our first days of birth are shortened in length.  Who knew years later I would be the subject of more people wanting to continue the exercise. Gevalt.

You are no ****.

No actually you don't. You want to add to the problem by mocking rather than doing something constructive.


Now look, I wish I could be more entertaining I really do. Now that I am being chased by them with pitch forks and flames as I hear screams of "finish em off".

Sorry no personal attacks from me on this thread to entertain you.

I am not a pit bill or a **** or a WWE wrestler.
Wait on second thought I guess I am

p.s. there will be no match with te tag team known as the  Colons (Carlito and Primo) and  the Magnificent Mullah

I don't.  Maybe I'm the only one, but I read your posts.  I always learn something.

You are a free thinker, as well as a good critical thinker who is not convinced by false logic.  You have the ability to respond compassionately to others' needs and to speak up.  That's humanity.  You're one of the ones I would love to share a bottle of wine around a bonfire with.

others do, as well - just not the tl;dr GishGalloping screeds... if you accept as representative of the greater-whole, the half-dozen or so members who have opined against the tl;dr nature of his purposeful lengthy posts... that intend to distract, deflect and monopolize threads. First the guy used the hilarious excuse that he needed to write so verbosely because... wait for it... his explanation of "complex legal issues" required he do so! Now, in his latest revelation, he just laments that "his people", as he stated, "tend to write a lot"... that, "Yah the Old Testament and Talmud are lengthy." JewThink the guy is shy to express his heritage!

Sorry no personal attacks from me on this thread to entertain you.
 
You are not the problem Rue, I enjoy most of your posts but wouldn't join in now as it seems there is no point, as you say pitchforks and flames.  I thought I'd found a forum with some mostly intelligent conversation but it is not to be, the little clique here won't allow diverse opinions.   So Sorry this is happening, thanks again for your input and patience when responding to them.

No reach.  No projection.  Just an observation that your posts are mostly personal attacks.

In real life, I am the last person anyone would call miserable.

I don't rarely initiate "attacks" - but I certainly respond, in kind - and I also, typically, give better than I get! The member Rue is trying very hard to deflect from his inability to write concisely, to write with brevity, to write without typical GishGalloping. Hey, if you're fine with the guy's tl;dr bullshyte and its purposeful intentions to distract/deflect/monopolize threads, to avoid actual legitimate discussion/debate, you're an anomaly to the board's other member grouping that has openly critiqued his purposely written tl;dr posts.

In real life, I am the last person anyone would call miserable.

and yet, in all your self-proclaimed elated joyfulness, you're so quick to throw that label... at an anonymous persona!

Yes, you do seem to always take things to a whole new level of nastiness.

I'm a happy person, but not a stupid person.  Your "anonymous persona" portrays kind of a miserable, vindictive, petty person, as evidenced by your comments above.

the ole adage, "I don't suffer fools gladly" certainly applies! And that's exactly what the member Rue plays at with his tl;dr posting... fools gots to fool!

I'm a happy person, but not a stupid person.  Your "anonymous persona" portrays kind of a miserable, vindictive, petty person, as evidenced by your comments above.

these following posts are your above evidence... where you subsequently quoted my reply and trotted out your miserable labeling. The guy is full of himself; he's so preoccupied with tagging posts as Dumb, he has no time for his presumed "intelligent conversation". Tagging posts Dumb... for Dumbs sake... warranted the response given. Presuming to whine about a, "clique stifling diverse opinions" is nonsense.

I thought I'd found a forum with some mostly intelligent conversation but it is not to be, the little clique here won't allow diverse opinions.

"I don't suffer fools gladly"

Yes, someone else here described themselves that way, too.  I think the phrase means something different to everyone.  I personally don't consider it a positive attribute.  It suggests to me that the person is brusque to the point of rudeness, uncaring about the feelings of others and given to rages over petty things.

I suffer and even enjoy fools at times, as part of the human comedy, because all of us are fools sometimes, some of us fools often. If someday my obituary says "She was much admired, above all for her ability to suffer fools gladly", I'd be good with that.  Because when I read "He didn't suffer fools gladly" in an obituary, I immediately think, "cantankerous old bugger."

Perhaps such people should be grateful that some us DO suffer fools gladly.  :)

again, member Rue isn't always the fool - only when he refuses to write concisely with brevity in mind... only when he refuses to discuss/argue isolated/targeted points - the ones he can't hide from within his tl;dr refuge... only when he plies his "go-fetch routine" by ta-da dropping links without quoting from them... etc., etc., etc..

It is quite telling that he reaches for drama because he's called out on his purposeful want to post 1500-3000+ wordBombs... that you, apparently, suffer gladly!  ;D

Just behave like civilized adults, it's not that hard.  We've all graduated from kindergarten, we all know how to behave respectfully. Even if we disagree with someone and think their opinions are "dumb" we don't have to use that kind of language to insult them.

Sorry JMT, but your moderation at this forum isn't very good, because it's barely existent. This has led to back and forth insults being allowed to continue and turning into petty rivalries that drip into just about every thread, users fleeing the board because of it (ie: Argus, though he was also part of it), and other users have also mentioned it being a problem here for them not posting as much.  It's VERY CLEARLY a problem, so fix it.  Or let the board turn to crap like the other one, which it's getting close to anyways, except it's the left-wing version here.  How ironic.

Ah I would disagree with most of that. The moderation on this site IS very good because it is nowhere near as disruptive nor as right wing biased as over yonder. Argus is over there because he fits in much better within the general dialogue. Yes at times there are insults here, and sometimes threads drift, but neither the threads nor the people get banned over it. Members can refocus the thread and carry on. There are certainly lots of insults thrown around over yonder but you can only get away with them if they are thrown in the right direction.
