You, Miss Squeeky, are off your ever lovin’ rocker. Call that an ad hominem if you like, but given your behavior here, I’m just stating a fact.
I don’t know what’s going on with you, or what sort of interpersonal relationship issues you have, but one thing is certain — you can’t have a civil conversation to save your life.
I’ve tried very hard to bring you up to speed on where you are, and who you’re talking to, but apparently that’s gone in one ear, and out the other. Again — this is an established community of real people who know each other quite well — many in real life. Some relationships here go back well over a decade, and even many newer members have established themselves as decent, intelligent, and worthy individuals.
Respect here is earned - not given under duress. I’ve earned what respect and friendship I have here. And I have quite a bit, primarily because I understand the simple concepts of courtesy and manners. No one’s asking you to bow and kowtow to anyone. Simply act like an adult, and you’ll probably be alright. Keep up the nasty tongue lashing routine, and your days here will be few.
You need to get it through your head that this isn’t YouTube, or some other open forum where no one cares if you’re a trash mouth. Step out of line here too often, and the owner may bounce you off the forum.
That was very well said; thank you. I haven't got a terribly impressive tenure (to put it mildly) built up yet, but I've known since even before I signed up that the level of decorum and civility expected in this place is an order of magnitude above what I've witnessed by this individual, both on this thread and on previous ones.
Sniff, sniff.
