I only have one and she seems to debate with no knowledge or logic; just her narrow minded view. I pointed it our a number of times and gave her places to go and confirm her erroneous views, only to have her back the next day with the same garbage again.
I gave up and just blocked her a month ago, and now only see where she has posted what I am sure is a bag of garbage. I do not think I will be so bored as to unblock this person; I have no masochist tendencies, so on my CD she is out of here. It really gives you a feeling of power.

Thumbs up Good post and I agree Joee!

I understand what you mean. Not too long ago, I posted in a forum that I hardly ever go in, and posted something I thought would be understood by another poster on there who I've playfully sparred with in the past . Unfortunately for me , it didn't play out as expected , and I got moderated for my post . Before being moderated, I repped that poster with comments that "of course I was joking and what had happened to their sense of humor ????". They repped me back and acknowledged that now they understood . But I realized then, that most of these posters had no idea who I was or that I was harmlessly teasing !

Anyways, most of the people who know me on CDF, know that 90% of the time, I like to kid around and just have fun !!! And 10% of the time, my posts are serious and please don't mess with me . So YES, I had one of those weeks this week, where a few posters got my MERCEDES (now EVERYONE can BUY me a NEW one ) and I had to take a chill pill or two ! But IF I have many more weeks like this one, then it will be : SYLABBC !!!

There are a few of us that have been on here for a few years , we have seen others come and go, some we miss and some we say don’t let the door hit you in the a** on the way out, then we have those that for some reason just come in here to try and stir up crap or have a chip on there shoulder and decide we are easy pickings for them.

Those of us that have been here for a bit know when some are just joking around and when they are serious but at times we can also misread each other and then if we are not careful we can get cross with each other, I had left for a while simply because it seemed as if more and more posters had no sense of humor what so ever, most were after each others throats, even now after being back just a short time it seems as though we have a few pit bulls.

Maybe it’s time for the silly nonsense, humorous type posts be put on the back burner and become the more serious poster, take everything to heart, nit pick on every single post, forget about coming in here to have a good time or to just kick back and have a few laughs, become dead serious on each and every line typed even if it means having a post shut down, send every little thing into moderators, leave no stone unturned.

Perhaps I’m being just too thin skinned, naaa I‘m a tough ol well seasoned bird, it’s going to be tough for myself to be dead serious darn near every post but after a few comments I have received on a few of my thought to be amusing posts it seems some don’t find my thoughts amusing what so ever, so my self moderating procedure looks to be that of if I know you good enough I’ll joke around with you but if I don’t nor if you don’t know me I will be dead serious in my posts with a very stiff upper lip with absolutely no sense of humor about me what so ever, if I do slip up every so often I am sure it will be brought to my attention by a select few and I will simply have my comment/comments deleted as to not ruffle anyone’s feathers.

It’s just a shame in this world we live in now that one has to be politically correct in each statement, dare not misspell nor have incorrect punctuation on a message board, what’s next we must have everything we say prescreened so we don’t hurt another’s feelings and make absolutely sure each and every post is 100 percent correct.
