Sooo, if someone has been a Freeper for a long time and they say something immature and insulting, only other long time Freeper’s are allowed to give those same immature and insulting remarks their proper due?

I must have missed the post where the other guy insulted you. If I did, my apologies. Even a newbie has a right to return fire.

Little tip though. Returning fire with childish and insulting replies won't do much to build your rep around here. Good luck.

re: “I must have missed the post where the other guy insulted you. If I did, my apologies.”

I responeded to DManA’s insults to others posting on the thread. He told one Freeper to F.U. becaused they called him on one of his insults. He even insulted “Ronaldus Magnus” (Ronald Reagan) by saying Reagan was “creepy”.

The way I feel about it is, he can insult my car, my job, my house, my mother, but not Ronald Reagan - never!

So, while he did not directly insult me, after his Reagan comment I just could not hold back.

As to me replying with childish replies, actually I didn’t see them as “childish”, but rather as a means to give his “mature” remarks all the respect they deserved - nothing.

I get it that DManA doesn’t like Romney, but why slime Reagan?

Also, look at his posts on this thread, then honestly tell me his purpose was anything other than provoking a verbal fight.

re: “. . . childish and insulting replies won’t do much to build your rep around here.”

I disagree that my remarks were childish, but as for building up my reputation around here, well, I’m not too concerned with that. I appreciate that you softened your tone a bit in this last post, but I ask you - what would you do if someone called Reagan “creepy”? I thought for awhile that perhaps DMan was a troll.

I’m not a “newbie”, but even if I were, it would have made no difference in how I would have replied to DManA.
