I'm sure that's how everything sounds to a windbag.

My guess is that he was "pointed" to it by a certain someone else. Someone who didn't mind all the blame and/or derision going to someone else, or rather another name, should it blow up in his face.

A "certain someone else"?

No, my point is that you sound like you're just chuntering on breathlessly.

You can ask anything you want about content, you can challenge conclusions, you can offer
opposing arguments, but you do not have the right to demand that the poster disclose his/her
motives for posting.

Because if you did post your motives (no, I mean the real motives, not the "story" ), you'd finally have no other choice than to apologize publicly?

I'm trying to get through the mountain of wind you've produced in my absence.

Is this whole schtick of yours here some kind of gigantic ironic thing?

Originally posted by HandyAndy
You're right, Robbie, I shouldn't call you stupid. Ignorant, maybe, or rude. Or possibly shallow or crass
or ill-mannered or even boorish. Not to mention sneaky and deceitful and dishonest. But not stupid.

All because he dares to say the Emperor has no clothes.

See? LL was right, anyone over 10 could see it. No one else dared say it though.

If that's what you want to believe, Nick, then sure.

All this because he is robbie, surely?

Ask him what? I was complimenting you for being such a wonderful friend to him.

Careful, that kind of lie is what started this whole thing.

Nick Bourbaki is now my son's account. I used it for a while before reactivating FMF. The reason I ask if you're just being ironic is because it comes across a bit like you are satirizing 'manufactured outrage'.

Did you?

Of course you did, it's gone now, isn't it?

And not only here, I'm sure.


Manufactured? No, I just hate it when someone (who was never guilty, btw) is railroaded to the degree that it makes them leave the site for an extended time.

So HandyAndy explained his actions in detail there ~ said he'd crossed a line probably and that he would not do it again ~ and there was some discussion about it. Do you recall that?

If this is so, what's with all the words you wrote in your OP?

Here they are...

"Tired of [b]threads disappearing before you even get to read what's going on?

Tired of skillfully blasting your forum nemesis only to see them snivel like a weasel to the mods and get it deleted?

Tired of watching posters make accusation after accusation of ...[text shortened]... ake action! Fun for all can be had here so post here today to avoid missing out on all the fun!"[/b]

Did you happen to read the rest of it? I know how focused you get on minutia...
