I don't think we should feel lucky to have posters that follow the rules. Posters should feel lucky that they haven't been more seriously disciplined for breaking them. Posting here should be seen as a privilege and not as a right. The same goes for all other forums really.


:clap: :clap: :clap:

As a general aside - I find that the use of excessive swearing shows a lack of intelligence on the part of the person using the swear words. When you have a real point to make you should make it. Swearing indicates anger and often that anger appears to come from frustration at not being able to make an intelligent comeback. I say that in relation to a venue like a message board. Everyone swears occasionally when they hurt themselves or break something. But this is different. It's a board where you have a chance to sit down and think before you respond. Swearing when you have the time to stop and think before you hit send just shows a lack of class and a lack of an ability to write a convincing argument. :no:

I was hoping this would solve itself because we are all adults here and should be able to settle disagreements at the very least by agreeing to disagree.

I am disappointed by the comments of certain individuals in this thread.

Mike: There was no need to bring up Dave's suspension.

Min and Mel: I know the two of you disagree with Dave on many subjects. I do, too. So unless you need to step in as a moderator, ignore his comments.

Dave: This board is not a contest. There is nothing to "win" so there is no need fight. No one worth paying attention to will consider you weak if you state your case and walk away (from the arguement, not the board).

You do need to express yourself here without the obscenities. Take time to think before you post. You don't need to swear to say you're angry.


I want everyone to calm down.

Well its kind of really simple, if Dave wants to stay I think he should read the rules and guidelines more carefully.

Sometimes Dave you remind me of myself actually..Before i started my treatment I used to think everyone hated me and everyone was out to get me (ask Hamuchi if you dont believe me).

I barely every swear with the exception of the word frell but when i see people being attacked for no reason like Minuet it pisses me off, and seeing as Iam in a much better mental state now than I was before, If anyone feels the need to treat anyone here on Sistertrek unfairly for no reason id say bring it on, this time I WILL give my say in it whether its being appreciated or not.

So to follow up on Bonja yes I will calm down now, because I want this board back to the peaceful place it was, and we all need to help get it back to where it was, not just me, not just the mods, everyone

It'd not that i thnk everyone hates me. I think some ehre have an agenda against me. Call me a little paraniod.


I just think some here never really understand me. and that orginal first impression has stuck, that I'm a Arrogant, self centered, Asshole, who thinks he's always right.

many miss that I like to joke around, and an in general a fun loving,goofy person, who ocasionaly get's confrontationa when he beleives in something.

hmmm wel no offense but i am gonna call you a little paranoid yes. Because i used to think the same thing, Ill be honest when i first joined these boards I thought Dandandat didnt like me AT ALL, i was wrong.

The mods just try to treat everyone as equal as possible and I think so far you have been treated fairly, I spoke my opinion without cursing, had you done the same, noone would have made a problem of it. Were all different people, the key is learning to respect once character whether u like them or not.

Im pretty sure there are people on this board who think im a stupid little brat or something but you know what, they still respect me for who I am and dont hold some agenda against me because thats not what this board is for, its for meeting people with the same interests share fun and help towards each other. This isnt the frelling FBI or something.

If there are people you think dont like you, or vica versa then respect it and leave em be, its what Id do.

guess it's a little hard for me to respect someone when I think their beliefs are wrong and dangerous.

the reason i think some don't like me here. is that I have an ability to really piss people off. and there is some here that do wish me gone. But I will not name name's, but they know who they are. some have even shown their dislike towards me.

You don’t need to respect the person, all you need to do accept that your not going to get along, not going to agree and then not interact with them.


I don’t think you ‘piss off’ anyone here, the way you carry your self is annoying to some people and against the rules in some cases. I would assume it would take a lot more then you have ever done to make someone ‘pissed off’ over a message board.

It's not about preventing free speach, it's about what's acceptable according to the rules of this forum.
For example, personally I would never join a forum where I feel the rules would prevent me from speaking my mind, it would be to frustrating for me.
But I think we've talked about that before in PM:s.
