      :laugh: Carry on. Nice to know I'm worth so much of your time. And, validate that by replying again why don't ya. Sheesh... its just a rant. No need to pick it apart. I didn't ask for a rant review. But, Oak, gasm, Rob, you are really pointing out the fact that you do need someone to hammer on. My post is a perfect example of my point. Its a pointless post not worthy of replying, but you guys just feel the need to tear someone down with words. Does it make you feel better about yourself to insult someone who posts something you disagree with? Go ahead now children and rip on me some more. Lets see what you got. Maybe, just maybe, you'll engage in true wit instead of the schoolyard insults. So grade school.

That was before you started posting in the soapbox Jon, but you might remember him. And I haven't voted a single post in this thread. heh. Tis a bummer. I've enjoyed your posts and Roberts, granted I haven't really appreciated the gasm, so I could care less, but I thought you would rise above this childish crap. Oh well. Hey Jon, if you can get witty people might watch and think you're cool. :jig: But if not, then by all means, have a :beer: on me.

                I was just ranting out loud. I wasn't talking to you personally. My apologies if people thought I was talking to them like children. My mistake, I thought the soapbox was all about the rants. And likewise, I don't wish to fight, just don't see the value in trying to insult me. The way I saw it I could only have insulted those with whom the shoe fits. If I'm wrong and I insulted the entire list membership, then I do sincerely apologize.

                  And if you want to use "Synaptrik", on account 960, all you have to do is click on My Settings and change "Name or Alias." That would be so much cooler than just claiming you had another account.

                    Let him be. He kinda adds color to the place. Besides, him being around brings out your creativity. I had a good laugh when I saw the dick pyramid you made for him.

                        My mistake, its #940. And my reasons are that this is an old account I wasn't using til I asked Chris to revive it for me. But, feel free to criticize some more. Really, I'm flattered now that you think I'm worth that much of your time.

                          And this account is what I used for publishing my one article. Might as well let you get to know who you're just blindly ripping into. But hey, people might think you are now cool. So carry on.

                                I balanced it. Not kosher for me to vote blindly, of course, but then whoever zapped you was doing the same thing.

                                  What I have discovered is that some people here appear to need someone to hammer on. Like you are doing right now to me. I suggest something like ignore a troll, and people such as you choose to attempt witty insults aimed at me. So, you think I should have thrown up instead of ranting in the soapbox. Fair enough. You're entitled to your opinion. Welcome to it. As am I, and I exercised it. You can just as well ignore my posts you know. Nice attempt at witty entertaintment though Rob. You're content is usually more valuable than this post. Pity. But hey, someone thought that abusive barb was funny, so looks like you're not alone in your sentiments. OK, ignore my suggestion. Hell, even when someone leave CP for awhile, who do they ask about when they return? Negus, Captain, Illion, ... interesting. And I've been on the site since its inception. Just not with this account. As far back as CodeTools.com. I just like this moniker. :) My original account is member # 960. So, you're not insulting a newbie. :laugh:

Kinda like seeing something really disturbing but now you can't take your eyes off of it. Worse, you're subscribing to the pay per view. Yet, you rail against him like the village idiot and ask him to leave. Interesting. You have the answer. And.... Its the simplest solution there is. IGNORE HIM.... sheesh, anyone who responds to a single post of his, DOES NOT WANT HIM TO LEAVE. You're just in denial. What a bunch of troll lovers. I'm going to go sick up now... X|

                                        Looking for sympathy, eh? Although it's completely pathetic, I'll admit it IS pretty funny as well! :-D

                                          Nah, The Grand Negus was more my speed. All I saw was message automatically removed and a couple of threads complaining about him. So, I thought I'd ad a voice to the few others that suggest ignoring trolls. That's all.

                                          What I have discovered is that some people here appear to need someone to hammer on. Like you are doing right now to me. I suggest something like ignore a troll, and people such as you choose to attempt witty insults aimed at me. So, you think I should have thrown up instead of ranting in the soapbox. Fair enough. You're entitled to your opinion. Welcome to it. As am I, and I exercised it. You can just as well ignore my posts you know. Nice attempt at witty entertaintment though Rob. You're content is usually more valuable than this post. Pity. But hey, someone thought that abusive barb was funny, so looks like you're not alone in your sentiments. OK, ignore my suggestion. Hell, even when someone leave CP for awhile, who do they ask about when they return? Negus, Captain, Illion, ... interesting. And I've been on the site since its inception. Just not with this account. As far back as CodeTools.com. I just like this moniker. :) My original account is member # 960. So, you're not insulting a newbie. :laugh:

                                          Every village needs an idiot and he's the SBs village idiot. Depriving the village of their idiot will not be appreciated.

                                          Yep the village idiot, if you take away the village idiot you must epect to replace him as a target for a while at least. Besides there are too many here who like playing with the village idiot and they will continue to do so. This is born out by the number of rants that have been started and the years he has been inhabiting the SB.

                                          Never underestimate the power of human stupidity RAH
