It's pretty weak when somebody feels the need to gather a group to "defeat" one person.

As a general rule as a thread progresses, the ping lists tend to grow. I have had a number of disagreements with wagglebee on this thread and others. He did not ping his "posse", he just pinged a bunch of us who had responded to his posts, argued with him, agreed with him or whatever.

Maybe you should just respond to the post and not pay so much attention as to who gets pinged. This is a public forum and if you expect your responses to be considered private, then I'd suggest you use FReep Mail.

Looked like a lynch mob to me.

Anyway I've no further wish to discuss it under the current circumstances.

Getting beat on by dozens of people is not on my agenda today.

Bad for digestion.

Indeed, I had already been pinged by metmom to the post by humblegunner.

And my reply to her was "Jeepers" which roughly means I never would have expected that from him.

I very much appreciate the follow-up pings in the hopes that he will extend and clarify the earlier remarks as all of you shed light on why that initial post was so disturbing.
