A little contest

[ashauler]

That was the entire point of my post, that, especially given the atmosphere here, you would have to be an idiot not to expect that. What I was proposing was that I would act like runningdeer, wait until the utterly expected appearance of my PM on the forum, and then guess my own name to get a prize. But, again, that's what I wrote in the first place.

No, that is not exactly correct, what you wrote was this:

Now I feel like writing a passive aggressive PM to complain about someone's treatment of... well, that part probably doesn't even matter. I'll just act like a little bitch, wait until it gets posted in public (because anyone who's spent more than half a minute on this forum knows that's coming), guess myself and collect my riches. It's a foolproof plan!

Now, in your mind I'm quite sure you understood what you were attempting to convey. Evidently another member didn't follow your thought process, most likely because he didn't know you and couldn't properly detect your meaning. That being the case, he asked:

What's this? Have you inferred that we're unfair, or something?

You then said this:

I will infer that some of you, specifically you, don't read the posts closely enough. I was inferring that the public display of my PM would be the natural reaction of me acting like a spoiled brat who can't take a good-natured ribbing. In fact, the context of that entire post was my mockery of runningscared and his wussy little message to ashauler.

But maybe it's not that you didn't understand the thread. Maybe it's just my turn for the hazing that everyone seems to get. If that's the case, you'll find it hard to harass me. I roll with it pretty well. But please, keep trying.

The first part I got no problem with, other than your failure to understand the proper use of the word infer. If you would have stopped there, this would have just faded away.

The bold part is where you presume to know the workings of this forum. You clearly made an error when you implied that everyone is hazed. Sorry, that is simply not true, and you would have to be a complete idiot to expect not to draw fire after making such a statement.

One of my favorite quotes from here is:
"You're not catching shit because you're a newbie, you're catching shit because you're an idiot."
That's this board, pretty much in a nutshell.

I think you thought you could come here, drop Ken's name, and it would make you an instant FOG or otherwise respected member of this board. This is where you were wrong. It bought you some time and, apparently, just enough rope.

I gotta split for the evening gents....have a wonderful night.

He dropped Ken's name? I missed that. Not that it matters, nobody likes Ken anyway.

TommyTree some times its best to take a break and let things go.

Likesfishes is not your friend nor dose he think your right he just wants to use you as a justification for his feelings for this forum.
Any time he agrees with you you need to really think of why he is jumping on your side no mater if your right or wrong.

Interesting thread . Typical of most boards ,newbies and fucktards somehow to impale themselves on their sword. I'm the oldest by join date active member here and hardly consider myself the most senior member here. we have biult a solid core of good people here but I swear for every good member we have to watch 9-13 fucktards implode. I mostly ignore newbies cause I dont give a fuck about them or care how big their e-dick is. I see 1 fucking moron and 1 retard on this thread so far. 1sst guess to name them wins the chance to lick my balls
