Thunder,
I have to disagree with you, the group has made substantial improvements,
even if there are some minor set backs.

Spoken like an adult. Unfortunately, there aren't many here. ;-(

I tried to keep my promise for the two week holiday season.
Now that the period is over I'll be watching the Rev and a few others
closely.
Unfortunately , the Good Rev. sees reasonable behavior on the part of
others as a weakness and this empowers him to ramp up his own
foolishness. You are right though ... a better man would just ignore him.

Calling other posters names again Jim? Shame on you.




What names did I call anyone Don?



"2 peas in a pod"

May seem mild to you but could be offensive to others.

Happy holidays to all, even idiots.

I think that is one of the first names to have been called in over a week.

I don't think he started until after atlman did. Besides, you guys were on him pretty
hard. (Not that name-calling was an appropriate response!)

Sorry John but all I was doing was proving statements made by him as being
wrong. And at no time did I call him names, even when his responses
directed at me did.

If someone wants to make an outrageous claim and direct it at me then they
better be able to prove it. In Harry's case, he could not and in fact was
proved wrong several times.

Jim's back in junior high.


C'mon guys. We're all headed back to Jr. High if we resume our previous
focus on name calling and personalities. Just aching for it to be
"somebody else's fault" doesn't excuse destructive or juveniile
behavior.



I agree. I have not called anyone any names.


True, but you'd have to admit you're engaging Harry in a provocative manner. Granted,
he may have started it with the 'lightweight' implication about your boat, but that's
the best time to ignore him. He trolled a bait, you bit, and it went downhill from
there.

But, another option would be to simply ignore the outrageous statement.

JohnH,

That is the only way we will get rid of the trolls, but sometimes it is
difficult not to take the bait. Especially when the fisherman is excellent
at trolling. We need to take it one day at a time, hopefully we all,
including myself, will notice when we are taking the bait and spit it out.

Agreed, but it was fun watching Harry step in it time and time again.

It is like night and day compared to a couple of weeks ago
