Don't mind me while I report that as abuse. Btw: how many abuse reports does it take to get one banned? EDIT: I knew I should have quoted you. Thanks for the '1-votes', btw. What's with your immature behaviour anyways?

Interesting how he permits to himself what he wants to deny to the rest of us. He definitely belongs in the lounge.

There's a disturbing trend starting here. It seems that there's very much an Us and Them mentality occurring both here and in the Lounge. I would like to think that I was equally welcome in both areas as and when I choose to visit them, and I would hope that the same applied to everybody. Yes - there are disagreements and 1 votes, but it is disturbing that there is a real schism appearing here. We're mainly grown ups, so why have we let ourselves get into this state?

Yeah, and when I call him on it he 1-votes me, deletes the message and runs. :rolleyes:

Yeah I'm pretty sure that's how it is supposed to work. However there seems to be some minority demographic that sees fit to call for the banning of other members and the shutting down of forums. It's all quite juvenile. If I don't like a particular thread, I just pass it by. I haven't figured out what's so difficult about that. :shrug:

I hear what you say, and I didn't mean that the SB and the Lounge were or should be on the point of some sort of Civil War. However, I think you are preaching to the choir. With very few exceptions (my snarky remark being one of 'em) the "we are so much better than they are" posts have appeared in the Lounge with a smattering in Suggestions. In one Lounge thread regarding how terrible SB was, I pointed out that 6 out of 10 of the Lounge regs contributing to that thread were also frequenters of SB. It seemed to slow the critcism for the moment, but it appears that there are folks desperately in need of proving their superiority by suggesting that SB get shut down. Or hoping it stays open so "those people" won't get uppity and post in the Lounge. Here in SB your thoughts get a hearing. My guess is that you would be 1-voted and snarled at if you made a similar post on the lounge. That, of course, is only my opinion and worth every penny you paid for it. ;)

He's sending insulting posts and then deleting them? That's exactly what Joshua was pulling with me early in the week. How tacky.

He wrote something about Tim having shit in his mouth. Given his supposed "intolerance" for all things offensive (including wanting to ban Josh and the Soapbox in general) I told him I would be reporting his message as abuse. Minutes later it was deleted and I was 1-voted. I should have quoted it, but didn't. Now it appears he has changed his name to "Lost Values" although "Missing Marbles" might be more appropriate.

Now you are giving American politics a worse name than it deserves :rolleyes: I can't see what prompted the lounge comments, but either I've actually grown older, or the soapbox has become bvery kindergarden-childish in the last years.

That's his only (ahem) witticism. If you steal it, he'll be unarmed.

There is no such thing in SA. In fact, it's probably not even legal. Do you mean they charge no interest on transferred balance, only on new charges, since you switch to their card?

correct. I had one with a $5,000 balance that I just couldn't get paid off because of the interest rate. I applied for another with a -0- interest rate for 12 months on balance transfers and paid it off. Even better, the card was a signature card for an airline and they had a promotion going that added 25,000 miles to their travel program, essentially giving me a free airline ticket to boot.
Mike - typical white guy. The USA does have universal healthcare, but you have to pay for it. D'oh. Thomas Mann - "Tolerance becomes a crime when applied to evil." The NYT - my leftist brochure. Calling an illegal alien an “undocumented immigrant” is like calling a drug dealer an “unlicensed pharmacist”. God doesn't believe in atheists, therefore they don't exist.

That's not nearly as creative as Joshua. Heinze kept creating new log-ins. All Normski (his original moniker) did was change his name. Perhaps he's planning on reserving Norm for the Lounge?

Maybe when he eliminates all the undesirable members and message boards he will call himself Reichsmarshall Normski?
