Since many of you have felt the need to attack me personally, I would like to provide you a place to "vent". |

Can we get immunity from bannings for posts on this thread? If so, I've got quite a backlog of unposted insults for a lot of people on this board. Think about it, Lowell. This could be fun. |

Wow, an entire thread about you? Someone thinks mighty highly of himself... But even still, you are a Non-Detroit issue. |

Yeah, it should probably be moved to the "connections" section. |

Not as a place to attack any one poster, but as a general "shooting gallery" complete with immunity for the assailants, this is an idea with legs. Legs whose kneecaps will probably be blown to smithereens by Our Moderator. |

I think that post just meant that you being attacked by a lot of people on here isn't an issue directly pertaining to Detroit, and doesn't belong on the "Discuss Detroit" side of the forum. |

Thank you for the clarification, Bearinabox. The only forum I post in is Discuss Detroit, so this seemed the appropriate place. However, I would not be opposed to it being moved somewhere else. If it is, I will not be responding to it however. Which may actually be the best use for it! |

Retroit... I usually don't say anything against you in your postings... but you do sometimes have a tendency to shoot from the hip without giving your remarks a lot of though. And since you started a thread that asks WHY?... I thought I would give you the courtesy of a reply. Contrary to what the socially challenged folks "on that other thread" say, there are quite a few very sophisticated posters here, and they will call people out when they're wrong. Case in point... here's a post of yours today on the KK's mommy paying for his private flight to Dallas thread... you said...
quote:Way to go Detroit (& Grosse Pointe) voters! Keep feeding the mouth that bites you. With a post like that, you're surprised that people attack you?? First of all... 1) Grosse Pointers generally vote Republican, so CCK has never gotten their vote. 2) If Mary Waters and Martha Scott had not BOTH been in Democratic race against CCK in the primary this past August, they would NOT have split the anti-Kilpatrick vote, and one of them would have MORE THAN LIKELY won the Democratic primary, and went on to win against a guaranteed Republican loser in November... and we wouldn't even have been having that KK mommy discussion. But sometimes you just make hasty generalized remarks, and then get surprised when folks attack you. I welcome your input, and don't want you to get frustrated by thinking everyone here is out to attack everyone. But sometimes all of us just need to think before we hit that SEND key. Hell, I post only about 80% of what I type... the other 20% of the time I ask myself "why bother"... and will delete my post before I even hit the send key. Just typing your gut reactions here may often get you in trouble... so thinking about things before you hit that send key may work for you as it does me... Respectfully, Gistok |

Sage advice Gistok. I post approximately 30% of my various thoughts. If angry or emotional, wait until that sensation passes and re-author from scratch. If flippant, don't post it. If wavering or uncertain about my position, leave it be (don't post). Or, ask questions to better understand the topic and positions/ideas stated thusfar. Lastly, always be prepared to support any challenged assertation. Oh, and PS, it is never personal. |

I unclog my nose in your direction, sons of a window dresser. I wave my private parts at your aunties, you cheesy-leather, second-hand, electric donkey bottom biters. I burst my pimples at you, you tiny brained wipers of other peoples' bottoms. Go and boil your bottoms, you sons of a silly person! I blow my nose at you, you empty headed animal food trough water! I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries. |

Er, I should add I didn't mean to direct that Monty Python clip against Retroit. It seems to me more of an analog for the way certain Detroit-related websites try to "conquer" each other and ultimately fail in the most humiliating way. |
