If you are going to attempt to claim that was not an attack on your part, well perhaps I could find a word for that, but it is not something I would say.
Skip  I actually took it as the new system would prevent those types of exchanges. I didn't take it as an attack on any individual person. Of course, I could be wrong there.  | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

My point is that it was an totally unnecessaru swipe by, Hal. Typical for him, sadly but unecessary. Now quite personally i have no doubt that when the time comes Hal would ignore JohnD's comment and instead would nail me for defending myself. But we will see.

Skip What is fascinating Skip is that you assume that everything is about you!  My comment was directed at the exchange in general! | | | | Hal | | | | Last edited: by hal9g |

Very pretentious. The point remains your comment was unnecessary and inflammatory and added NOTHING to this discussion (other than to momentarily derail it), DELIBERATELY so.

| | Posted: | | | | I don't see how Hal's comment could be construed as an attack if you accept that it was directed at the exchange in general. All Hal said was that the reputation system was needed. Obviously Ken Cole is of the same opinion, otherwise he would not introduce it. | | | My freeware tools for DVD Profiler users.

Skip How can you possibly claim that you did not assume that my post was about you when your post that followed it immediately states: Quoting skipnet50: Quote:
Neither can I, Hal, I grow tired of simply defending myself from unnecessary, inflammatory attacks from the likes of you and Johnd.
Skip If that doesn't sound like you assumed I was talking to you and you took it personally, I don't know what does.  | | | | Hal | | | | Last edited: by hal9g |

| | Posted: | | | | Never mind, hal. <shakes head> I repeat I assumed nothing of the sort, hal. Your posts continue to do nothing but continue to keep this thread off track, I know instead of feeding your behavior I should simply ignore and let you go away.

Johnd shame shame stay on topic and stop the unneccesary attacks on others.
As has been stated previously, this community decided that rude and/or unacceptable behaviour should be pointed out and the offending person asked to apologise or modify their behaviour. Skip was rude, so I asked him to please stop. This is not an attack, mearly an implementation of what the forum community requested. Am I specifically targetting Skip? Yes, as he is the one forum member that is continually rude and bullying, and refuses to modify his behaviour. Reputation system roll on, but I believe it will have no effect in convincing Skip that he needs to change the way he interacts with this community. | | | | Last edited: by johnd |

Skip isn't the only one with a rude attitude here, they are some users that are worst offender in this forum. That's curious, but I've never seen one post where you comment on their attack ... |
