Almost Friends/List Game

Phlabibit, there isn't an ounce of "disdain" in the original post to this thread as you claim, nor is there even the least mention of detractors or enemies.

To the contrary, the intended tone of the thread is playful.

I was talking to VR... VR seems to think you've made a list of villains.

As for making playful threads, GB... that's a bridge you've burned. Nothing you write will ever be taken as 'being playful'. You've shown your hand, you are just here to get a rise out of people.

You could spend months posting interesting topics that don't somehow degrade other users of the forums, answer any questions asked of you to clear up anything you may have said that confused another user or they may have taken wrong and STILL the damage you've done would be what people think of when they see you coming.

That's too bad.

Hell Bob, if someone likes me or dislikes me, can take a joke or not, it's hardly up to me. I wouldn't waste time making a list of people I think dislike me.
Screw em. 🙂

Point taken.

Some people actually believe it would be a perfect world if everybody was the spitting image of themselves. The Red Hot Pawn Sandbox is designed to accomodate all members in good standing without regard to gender, place of birth, citizenship, spiritual persuasion, level of education, place of residence, socio-economic status, voting record, employment, marital status, personality profile, athletic proficiency, intelligence quotient, medical condition, personal preferences, hobbies, chess rating, avatar, nickname, language style, computer smarts or lack thereof, on which side their hair is parted, where they hangout, whether they tend to run with the heard or march to different drumbeats, etc. There's no provision in RHP Policy or Terms of Service mandating any member, present or future, to read or post in the public forums. Those who do will hopefully be able to enjoy this RHP Site Centerpiece without becoming anyone else's patsy, punching bag or door mat. Live and let live, Phlabibit. You especially, as a veteran member, have the recognition and opportunity to influence many others who look up to you by setting the example of a member who conducts himself in a positive, friendly and constructive manner. Let's bury the hatchet. Okay?

You were not talking to VR at all.

Where do you see where I've said he made a list of villains.

Why must you constantly lie?

Well said my friend!

Don't look for the herd mentality to change anytime soon though.

VR & The way I see it!

I wouldn't lose a bit of sleep if I never heard from any of the aforementioned again.

Where was it said that I had disdain for any of the users or wanted to see their demise?

I said I wouldn't lose any sleep if I never heard from any of the aforementioned again.

It does not mean that I have any disdain or want to see any of their demise. These are your words not mine.

As I've said many times before, I don't know any of them well enough to hate or want their demise. It doesn't mean that I'd want to take any of them out for dinner either. 😛 😉 😉

Postscript to Phlabibit: During dinner thought it might be a worthwhile first step to suggest that you remove my nickname from your Iggy List. Doing so

would give us the third option of conversation in private, now and then, rather than silence or displaying any differences in need of being resolved in public.

I've seen enough CSI and Lifetime Television for Women to know what THAT means.

That's mild, some people just don't bother to open messages.

It's a figure of speech. In most places it means to forgive and forget.
For SHTF preppers it means to stash future Armageddon supplies.

* Iron Monkey* Blackamp* Mikelom* HandyAndy* catfoodtim* huckelberryhound* Rookie* Shallow Blue* YEAH BOY* Orangutan[/b]

why sadly???

you cannot think that you didn't intentionally set yer life up like this, and script every move???
every nuanced word, carefully chosen for maximum effect, directed with unerring accuracy, only to innocently shrug and feign ignorance of malevolence???

you will be counseled again, right here, my "friend",
pay heed to the words yer told...
az soon az you decide to forget them again,
or voices in unison will laugh and scold...

unless,

THAT'S what yer really after...

you like being spanked???

HA!!!

heavens to murgitroid, grampy's a rainbow warrior...
