Yes, I did consider sending it to CP admin, but on reflection decided that rather than run crying to mummy about it I would, as someone so eloquently put it, “grow a pair” and try and deal with it between just the two of us. But I never dreamt to carry on in public about it – believe it or not, I didn’t want to do anything that might cause you embarrassment; that was actually my primary reason for not evens ending it to CP admin, let alone making a public fuss about it. Taking a bit of stick from others on a forum is indeed part and parcel of participating in them, but the reason I felt differently about this issue was because of your high status/ranking (call it what you will) on CP, which gives your posts an air of authority. And like anyone in an exalted position, you have a responsibility to conduct your affairs with a certain amount of care for the consequences. You jumped in on a conversation between others (myself and the OP) and set yourself up, unasked, as a moderator. Yet your comments were of no better a nature than either of ours, and in fact only served to pour fuel on the situation. If peacemakers are blessed, then I’m afraid you are going straight to Hell. If you are unable to do better than that, then my suggestion to you is that in future you stay out of other peoples’ arguments. Your earlier post on this (even the title of which was rude – precisely what you accused me of in my post and for which you suggested I “take a break” from the forums...) seems to indicate that most people here seem to think that you are beyond reproach in this matter, so fine. But having balls or not isn’t the issue – if this whole sorry affair is indicative of the sort of community here, then I guess it just isn’t for me. Go to Hell, Mark.

        Come on, man... This is ridiculous... Think like a programmer! You need rigidly-defined parameters. You've specified the "Mark" base class instead of passing a reference to the derived "Mark Nischalke" class. Do you have any idea how many Marks we have on CP? :)

            Hi pal, I see that his response was a bit out of line, and was uncalled for. But such things keep happening. This is the internet, you see? That gives people the freedom to respond to others in any way they want to (which they probably won't if talking in person) - at times in a very uncivilised manner. It gives them anonymity and they could even be abusive or insulting without proper reasoning. I'd suggest you don't lose your sleep over this, and there's absolutely no reason to quit the community. If you feel that Mark was being unreasonably arrogant towards you, and if that would be a reason for you to leave this community, you're going to find such people everywhere on the internet. Perhaps you should 'leave' the internet. And for God's sake, look around you and you'll find much better things to worry about. So, just give this a break. Forget, forgive and come back to continue your contributions. Rajesh.

                  Yes, upon reflection I perhaps should not have posted the entire message, yet I wanted to give everyone the full context of your ridiculous and humorous tirade. No one threw you off the forums, you took that action on your own and this is a community where everyone has the right and obligation to point out inappropriate behavior (Thanks Pete) Although there are many issues I could discuss about your message and this post there is no point to it, I'll just leave it at this; I apologize for embarrassing you. And I apologize to those looking for more entertainment today. :)

                                    heh. It looks like the OP has returned, and he's ticked off. Its going to be a good year.

                                      Hi Rajesh, Sry but I clicked unintentionally on the vote section of your message instead of on the previous/next section above (I'm so used to paging I assume) and I think I gave you a one, I'm not sure if there is an option to undo this vote but sry for that
