Yeah, I've checked back quite a bit and can't really find where I attacked you. What I did find is where you jumped in after my post to Basil. I guess your filling in for Basil? Funny how things get all twisted.![]()

Just like you said about me, and Ted said about me..........Ted can speak for himself, and I have little doubt that he will do so. I'm speaking for myself in my posts, as I am prone to do.
Your post was, just that, a post, made in public, that I felt the need to respond to. If someone had posted a blatant attack on you, and I saw it, I would have responded in the same manner.
It is telling that you avoided responding to my questions regarding your double-standard and instead wish to portray me as imagining your attack on me. You mentioned my name on the Pryme thingy, the problem you had with that, if your private communications with me are to be believed, had nothing to do with me. I did not host or suggest the split iirc, only agreed to trade for a 5er, which was completed satisfactorily by your own admission.
I really don't care to continue this drama, at least the part of it between you and me, positions are clear, and ain't gonna change anytime soon.

BTW - Mr. C is fast approaching the 7 posts necessary for an early exit. Any bets on whether or not he'll face the challenge???...or will he go on to live in CirgarSmokers infamy!
...In any event - I'm going to call this one the "Case of the Bewindler!".![]()
Oh, Dennis... Please - don't pretend to be so clueless. I think you are much better than that.
But - then again - perhaps I am wrong. Maybe you are that clueless, and all along I've been giving you much more credit than you deserve?
I think you understand where everyone is coming from. And - quite frankly - I believe you come from there as well. I don't understand your attraction to this forum if you're so unhappy with the way things are done.
...or perhaps you'd really, truly like to see things change? Perhaps you're not so satisfied with the dynamics of this forum and now is the time for a "revolution"?
If that's the case - I can't wait to see how this is all going to pan out for you...

Incessant badgering does finally drive people away. You've got that one down pat. Some just give up and go on to other forums. Some probably just give up. I'll grant you this. I have seen some good judgement. But. so many times it never reaches that point. One little slip by a defensive newbie and he's out. I think it sucks and I think there's room for improvement.
This community needs some moderators. Someone who has some respect for others. I don't think you understand what a moderator does so I don't think you would be a candidate. Sorry.
I started some shit? Really? Why would you not want to answer simple questions? With all the support you have and everything.
Never said I was a moderator, wanted to be a moderator, or had the qualifications to be one. Besides, the mods we have here do a fine job.Originally Posted by DeeDubya

I dunno Dennis, at the risk of sounding obtuse, I'm just not clear on what your gripe here is. First you imply that I deserve the contempt of the board for being mean to newbs:
But in the same post, that I deserve this contempt for posting "weak questions at best":
Incidentally, when these remarks were posted I had already recovered from a beat down and had begun to establish a reputation here. This a little bit different context than the same questions being asked on day one. But presenting things in context doesn't really suit your agenda, does it? I don't think anyone would have, at the time, hesitated to let me know how weak they thought these comments were had they actually thought so. So I don't guess anyone did. Until this most recent opinion from you. Convenient.
Then you say I'm mean again:
And then stupid, again:
The hallmark of the con artist is to keep the waters muddied so that others can't see his real agenda. You're quite a piece of work, Dennis. I'll admit you've had me fooled all along.
lol. Dennis, you have completely missed something in post #51 that has caused you to misconstrue my meaning, and if or when you see it, you're gonna feel at least as stupid as you seem to think I am. But, even not getting it doesn't seem to warrant such an itchy trigger finger. And, you could've gone after others but you come after me over this lameass excuse. Somehow, Dennis, I get the feeling that you haven't finished "calling me out" like you'd like to. There is a bug up your ass and I think we both know what it is - not that I'd ever put words in your mouth. I just wonder if have the nuts to throw it out there. If I'm right, and you do, you're going to feel like an idiot.
Dennis, you've given me a little more power over your behavior here than I'm comfortable with. You can have it back. I don't think I'll be taking the blame for your nastiness. Fucking victim.
More double standard bullshit: you seem to be defending a person's right to speak for himself, while accusing me of putting words in another's mouth here:
Yet when it suits your agenda, your concern for this right becomes less important than an opportunity to take shots at the very person you ah, seemed to defend earlier.
Y'know Dennis, I hope you're not taking this comparison as a compliment. It's certainly not meant that way. The movie points up that in a world of outlaws, a drygulcher (and in this instance, one who is employed by a man who believes that the end justifies any means) is the lowest of scum. Which is why the last thing that ever woke Clayton up was the sound of his own throat being cut.
I don't think I deserve anything from you, nor do I want anything either. However, one of the things that surprises me here is the fact that we've exchanged friendly PM's before, we've even extended mutual invitations to get together, either here or in San Marcos. If you are so unhappy with me, then why no head's up before you jump ugly? It's cool, that's a rhetorical question; maybe we both already know why.
I really don't give a fuck about your reasons for you asinine, lying, double standard, condescending bullshit. I do want to point out that this board has a dynamic and atmosphere that is respected among other boards and protected from viral troll bullshit. Go take a look at how things have gotten out of hand at CP - maybe you'd like it better over there. Well, some newbs with fucking sense-of-entitlement attitudes are going to get canned along the way. And thin-skinned newbs are going to get fucked over. So goddamn what? Collateral damage. I like it here, and if you can't be honest with us, then you have to admit to yourself you like it too. Or maybe you're just too chickenshit. At any rate, you enjoy the benefits of this board. And for that, you do owe not only Jamie and myself apologies, you owe the entire board one as well. You're out of line, you're full of shit, and you're true colors don't blend in so well here anymore.
Equality is not seeing different things equally. It's seeing different things differently.

You could have saved a lot of time by just posting you summary.![]()
