I have a rant!!

I spend an hour in this forum coming up with intelligent points as to why this guy shouldn't be a dweeb and moan just because gay pride parades happen to pass by him every once in a while. What happens?

Nada.

Everyone else gets responded to and they didn't take half the time in their responces as I did. Nor did they (I feel, anyway) phrase their arguments as convincingly.

Anyway, I'm beginning to have the impression that people in ED don't want to have to prove what they write. They just want to complain.

I got someone banned from this guild and it seems that the real life also affects the guild? Anyway he wasn't given a chance to even defend himself..

Anyway it doesn't matter anyway...


You did eek ?



She did eek ??


Yeah unfortunately I did. I was talking to another guild member and she talked to the mods and got him banned. The thing is that the behavior I was describing was on the phoone and in emails -not on Gaia. I feel really bad because this had nothing to do with gaia. He rarely talks to me on gaia anymore.

Yeah sweatdrop

I think I might stick with the subforums... like sociology and psychology. There are a lot more serious people in there for some reason.

Grrr....I hate porn trolls. And I hate narrow minded, prudish idiots. And I especially hate when they're the same person. scream Ealrier today I defended a thread that I visit often in the GD. Someone said it didn't belong in the main forum because it discusses a sexual issue and was therefore not PG-13. I defended it by saying that it was, because the discussion in it wasn't graphic and fell well under the PG-13 limit. Just because a thread discusses a sexual fetish, does not mean that it is graphic or pornagraphic. Well, just now about 4 different accounts with names specifically referencing our thread, just flooded us with two pages worth of porn pics. Then they ened by posting "well, I guess this topic isn't PG-13 after all." Idiots. scream evil scream evil scream

I hear you. I post in ED occasionally, and when I do, I like to do crazy things like cite actual sources, not make ad hominem attacks, and acknowledge other people's points.

Needless to say, I typically get ignored rolleyes


P.S. Good job, Ananda! I hardly ever go to GD, much less the chatterbox, because of stupid kids-trying-to-shock blather. It's like trying to have a normal conversation in the middle of a pickup joint for the loudmouthed.

yea I know hard that can be...


Well in other news, I took my daughter to the doctors again because she has a lump on the side of her head, at first they gave her antibiotic's didn't help then she went back and the doctor said it was a traumatized pimple confused ????? well it still wasn't getting any better, so back to the doc again, now he said she is going to need surgery to remove it, now it is a cyst...... but in a very bad place, right next to her ear where apparently a lot of the nerves that control the face end at neutral .

Then I took my van back to the mechanic because its still leaking, well the good news is its not the power steering pump .......... nope this time its the gear box, that helps with the steering stressed and its going to cost me $250.00 to fix it, that's parts and labor.....he said that it can be resealed but he doesn't do that because as he put it the bearings inside are going bad but the leak isn't to bad at the moment that I should worry to much about fixing it, except it is leaking all over my drive way and making it look horrible....
