        Thanks, I am trying to emulate Prince Myshkin, another idiot immmortalised by Dostoevsky. I am grateful to you for reinforcing the similarity. If you watch me closely enough, you can see my beautiful nature unfold before you like a flower :laugh:

          There's no show tonight. He deleted his comment in the article page. I took that as a sign of repentance and deleted my response.

            Hi Oakman, I deleted my membership in Soapbox 1.0 because of your irrational response to my message. You said you wanted Palin to be President and I said I wished for the same thing. For some reason it got you all riled up and you posted responses like "you are a troll, that's your last warning" etc. I was completely amazed at the way your mind works. Why would agreeing with you be considered trolling ? I decided that it's not a good idea to be a member of a private forum controlled by someone who not quite OK in the head. So I deleted my membership. It's no big deal anyway, your soapbox 1.0 is just a very small group with 2 or 3 stormfront.org types posting there.

                    You call that abuse? Soft lad. This is the firswt time this poster has come to my attention and I have to say ' I decided that it's not a good idea to be a member of a private forum controlled by someone who not quite OK in the head.' was very profound.

                      Being called an idiot is abusive. As for his comments they are reasonable IMO and thus not idiotic. :)

                        In a forum such as "The Back Room", various levels of abuse (idiotic or not), are to be expected. It is the nature of "The Back Room". It is, IMO, rather bad form to make such observations against any article by any author. If the criticism of an article itself is constructive then a learning exercise becomes possible that benefits the author and the readers alike. For ANY member to make abusive observations against an article just because the member has some personalized issue(s) with the author is not really playing with a "straight bat".

                          I just wondered if it was the usual 'picking on the new guy' syndrome thats so prevalent on CP.

                            No. Hadn't realised he was a new guy, my immaturity meant I couldn't resist the chance of the slightly witty response to trollslayers 'you do a good impression of an idiot'. I would have made the comment regardless of who the subject was or the length of time they had been here.

                                          In a forum such as "The Back Room", various levels of abuse (idiotic or not), are to be expected. It is the nature of "The Back Room". It is, IMO, rather bad form to make such observations against any article by any author. If the criticism of an article itself is constructive then a learning exercise becomes possible that benefits the author and the readers alike. For ANY member to make abusive observations against an article just because the member has some personalized issue(s) with the author is not really playing with a "straight bat".

                                          I did not make any abusive observations about his article. I saw him complaining about a 1 someone gave to his article. Out of curiosity I clicked on the link and read the article. Then I added a (fair) score of 3 and two dots as comment. Since when is two dots considered an abusive observation ???? :confused: The rating on his article was added 3 or 4 days before the incident in Soapbox 1.0. Seriously, people, do you think I am a time traveler ? :wtf: :-D When I pointed out the discrepancy in the dates to Oakman, he realised his mistake, deleted his comment and went underground :-D .. ..

                                          Und wenn du lange in einen abgrund blickst, blickt der Abgrund auch in dich hinein.
