We make the baby Jesus cry with our terrible abuse.

Still, babbie_spammer can rest assured Beelzebub has a poker warming up for me.

JimV, I think its fair to mention why this silly person is moaning. And also to be fair, the Good Manners Guide you spent ages updating isn't very hard to miss if you are paying attention.

Since you seem to insist that 'abuse' is subjective, there's no way anyone could be wrong or right. Besides, this isn't a competition. I couldn't care less even if you did think I was wrong. You're perfectly entitled to, just as I'm perfectly entitled to have my own opinions.

And for someone who doesn't watch his punctuation, you're hardly in any position to be correcting my English.



I find it really cheeky that you should be saying this since all I did was ask you a rather innocent RHETORICAL question, and that is, whether you find abuse equal (from the Oxford dictionary: the same in quality, value, amount, status, meaning, level or standard :rolleyes: ) to disagreement and your response was:





I think I have every right to assume there's a possiblilty that my few words have somehow offended you.

I may have disagreed with most of your comments prior to this, but not once did I ridicule your opinions, or describe them as stupid.



Not by my own definition, no...Please read my previous posts. I did say in #7 that it was subjective, and offered my own interpretation of 'abuse'...

And don't make me repeat myself again. (Yes, that's MEANT to be condescending.)

To quote from a very relevant source:



Deal with it. Everyone does, despite what you might think.



Er...where are you getting the impression that I believe my views are gospel?



A dig at you? What dig? Surely that's you reading too much into things?

Here's a PROPER example of a dig:

You want an intelligent response, first post something that warrants one. Not a plethora of juvenile insults.

If you were THAT bored, you didn't have to reply...or perhaps you just want the last word...Quite frankly, you are welcome to it.

But personally, I think you should just chill...Thus far, you're the only one worked up about this.

For the last time. You did not mean equate. Lets space this out so you can read it slowly

Equate
suggests
a
two
way
relationship

ok? You meant implies. Arguing is fruitless you are wrong. It isn't subjective. You are just wrong. Opposite of right as defined in the Oxford dictionary. Please just stop trying to argue something that is factually incorrect. If you do not believe me read a mathematical text book above GCSE level. Equate is wrong. Equate is incorrect. Equate is not the term you should be using. Equate means something else.

I don't know how many different ways I am going to have to write that before you comprehend this very simple fact.

My lack of punctuation is due to laziness not through lack of ability. However me not using completely correct punctuation does not make it impossible to understand what I am saying. You missing several words out of a sentance does.

Can you understand the difference or in your speak

Can understand difference speak?

see????

Just because you have trouble grasping what I am saying you said my post gave impression. My POST gave no such impression, YOU got the impression from reading it.

It's quite hypocritical to be condescending to someone when you are complaining about flaming.

Of course you have been abusive if I feel abused. You must have been. I found you abusive and feel abused. That makes you abusive. This is because abusive can only really be decided by the person being abused.

I am getting impression you think your word is gospel because you are clearly trying to say that flaming is abuse and have so far not even considered anything else or even explained why it is abuse in a coherent and intelligent way.

I also wish you would stop saying I am worked up. I am calmly explaining why so far you are being a hypocritical mathematically challenged person of which you can only call me juvenile.

What in fact would be a less abusive way of countering my point would be to somehow prove otherwise.

I think whole point of your thread is undermined by fact you are being abusive to people in the thread.

Well hardly, you've been here since June. You seem to have had very little to say on anything but this thread, which you started clearly in response to something which was said to you.

And since I started this thread, I could at least have the decency to reply to posts. I know there are loads of other threads, but it's not like I can be online 24/7!

... and the rest of us can?

Except to say that "abuse" on these forums is determined by the Mods. As a result there is a level of consistency.

If they feel that the comment is unacceptable then the User would be wanred and/or banned.

Naturally they cannot affect the whole internet.

But personally, I think you should just chill...Thus far, you're the only one worked up about this.

Not true, something prompted this thread. Which you started.

So what prompted you?

Something which Girl Interrupted and myself said about something Jim V has said we're not allowed to talk about.

I know, I've read the thread. I was just pointing out the she must have been "worked up" in the first place....

I'm pleased that my hunch was correct, then, and that this entire thread was because this person has an axe to grind after all..

Well you certainly over reacted and starting getting into a stupid debate, when all you had to do was let the troll have the last word.

Whatever the motivation someone might have had for posting, that's nowhere near the same thing as being a troll... a peeved user does not a monocrat make
