Shadow has a question.
Howdy Gang!
I have a small question to ask of you all.
I was sitting here wondering why you are all becoming so upset over that Troglodite? (He is not a Troll yet Vader Darling, I am pretty sure his stones have not dropped).
A very good friend once told me that YOU are NOT responsible for ANY one else's happiness. That NO one else can make you feel the feelings that you feel. (Yes, I admit that I have to remind myself about this statement of wisdom on occasion as well).
Why are you allowing some tweenager to dictate whether you leave the board or whether they can stay?
The answer seems quite simple to me. Don't read any posts by said Troglodite. Honest, it is THAT simple. If this "Maynardworshipingbadbassplayingskunkweedsmoking" Troglodite upsets you so.............back away from his threads.
I admit, I have read them, as well as others, and allowed the words to tell me I was upset, then I sat back and thought. ..Nah.....they are bored and have no friends or life and this is how this person gets attention. Like a child tossing a hissy in Toys R Us, I pointed, laughed and went about my shopping experiance.
Honestly, We have gone through this before, and because the Internet does not have a "Stupid Person's" detector, we will continue to go through it. Don't read the posts, but if you do.......DO NOT allow someone else to make you feel from their words. Words are words, cant hurt ya, unless ya include sticks and stones with them, thrown at ya at about 35 miles an hour, then they does.
I do care for most of my KnoxGothic family, and I can understand why some of you are reacting to the Troglodite's words, but consider this....If the "target" of these words are attempting to educate and have patience..........shouldn't you?
Don't let the Troglodite get to ya...........a flick on the nose usually works. That and a Camel Light and a bottle of Wine.........then ya will understand true apathy.
Can ya dig it?

Very well said my dear
It would not be any fun to come here and start debates if there is not a rise to be gained from anyone
It forces one of two things: either he/she leaves from boredom or they learn that there are some wonderful people to interact with around here
No amount of words can change the way a person feels; however, the examples set before them just might
I initially got upset over all of it, and then I stopped and thought about what I knew about the targets as compared to what I knew about the one doing the attacking
I know the quality of men the targets are, and there is no amount of typing by someone else that could change my mind on that
I then just rolled my eyes and went on reading other threads

Agreed on that note
The only thing that we can do to make an attempt to undo the damage of those words to the people involved is express our love and encouragement to Jay, Kasi, Stage and all else involved which we all continue to do
Fighting with an individual who originally came here to start fights only encourages him to continue and allow those we love to continue to see the offensive and disrespective comments if they still read the forum
Just my two cents
Then again, I tend not to fight with people who dont prove to be worthy opponents
(Forgive the typing I had a cat incident with the keyboard, and part of the keys wont work until I can get around to cleaning it)

Perhaps, but it does have a troll detector. Those in the IT department refer to this as an "access log".Shadow wrote: We have gone through this before, and because the Internet does not have a "Stupid Person's" detector

But isn't that a catch-22?
How can you determine whether or not you like something without looking at it? By then it's too late, you've seen it.
Sure, I'll try to be nicer, if you try to be smarter.

There's also that whole "Thy Brother's Keeper" thing too - "Oops, serial killer, don't look & I don't have to tell!"
Never mind, most people operate on the "if I pretend I didn't see it, I won't have to do anything about it" philosophy already...

And there you have the basis of why I post such horrid links. Not many people would normally have a chance to see a man with two cocks pounding away at a woman, or even a midget being tossled by a great dame. Now they have the opportunity to decide whether or not they like it.
