Craig Irwin Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 I find the Bed, Bath and Beyond store boring and useless, so I don't go there.
Keef Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 I never could understand why anyone would 'lock out' viewing another persons posts. Kinda says more about the "banner" than the one being banned. But if that is what is desired... OK. That is why I called it "Tough love" Because it is TOUGH. And like it or not, punishment gets results. TOUGH LOVE?....like the kind you got over on SLH?
george 53 Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Uh Foxer, I don't think Harry's eyes are QUITE that far apart!!! :lol: :lol:
sjordan2 Posted May 2, 2011 Author Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) Sigh. Who would have thought that a simple plea for people to stop carping at each other, which is clearly evident in so many posts (I guess me among them), and be considerate of fellow forum members would ignite such controversy, and even greater nastiness? Signing off for tonight, and I just wonder what this thread will look like in the morning. Edited May 2, 2011 by sjordan2
Patrick2005 Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 I still find this so hard to believe, a bunch of adults going at it over stupid things. Dr. Cranky may be eccentric and like to make videos but SO WHAT? Without him and people like him this forum (and the world quite frankly) would be kinda boring. I say rock on mad doctor! Let's not forget why we're all here in the first place, to build and discuss models. If I may quote Jack Nicholson's character from Anger Management, "GOOOOOSFRAAABAAAA"

niteowl7710 Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) Man, that is as convoluted a screed as I've ever seen. So..you're saying everyone is entitled to their opinion even though they speak harshly to other people, diss them and generally behave in a nasty way? There's a difference between censorship and self-control. And I have never advocated censorship at all. So why do you bring that up? And no, it's not Harry's DUTY to determine what is civil and what isn't. It's what everyone who posts here should consider before they hit "Add Reply." I'm not sermonizing, I'm merely asking for people to be more considerate of their neighbors and stop these nasty, incendiary posts. No sermonizing (is that like Simonizing?) is EXACTLY what your are attempting (rather poorly I might civilly add) to do. You of all people...creator of the "if you don't update your WIPs, you're a talentless hack" mantra have no business what so ever lecturing anyone on proper message forum behavior. Is it snowing up there on that horse of yours? So yes I do believe that everyone is entitled to their opinions, it's the basic tenant of Free Speech which we enjoy in this country. This being a private forum however, it falls to Harry, Gregg, et all to determine exactly how and where they draw the line of how much Free Speech we're granted. Your defenders in this noble endeavor of nonsense include someone who speaks up only to try to suck Mark into a flame war, and someone who's been bounced off another message board. So if we're known by the company we keep... So I have decided, so it SHALL BE!! And since you seem to have a sick need to see my face...so be it. Edited May 2, 2011 by niteowl7710
Guest Johnny Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Now Matt! You know that song was BANNED!!!! From the radiothat is!
highway Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Did some say Jack Nicholson!?!? I'm sorry, I'm just trying to lighten up the mood around here!
highway Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Now Matt! You know that song was BANNED!!!! From the radiothat is! Actually Johnny, no I didn't! Maybe that's why I haven't heard it in a while! Still makes a funny picture, though!
slantasaurus Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Just an observation here: It's really obvious when Gregg is out of the office......
Guest Johnny Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Actually Johnny, no I didn't! Maybe that's why I haven't heard it in a while! Still makes a funny picture, though! It was banned shortly after it was released because they said it was making fun of the mentally ill.(the beginnings if PC politics perhaps?) But it still got enough air time on late night and underground radio that it took off and eventually they had to air it!
Harry P. Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Just an observation here: It's really obvious when Gregg is out of the office...... Newsflash, pal: Gregg is rarely online here. That would be me who tries to keep you maniacs in check every day. Ironic that the title of this thread is "Civility." This makes the fourth thread I've had to lock today. Never before have I had to do that. Congratulations, "gentlemen"... you must be very proud.
