there are two things that really shit me, missing the point of a topic and EDITING A F***ING POST. (not attacking anyone)
now in the "fibreglass deadly" i mocked someone who compleatly and utterly missed the whole point of if you burn fibreglass what do you think will happen next.
now i used the good old insult of " were you dropped on the head as a child" insult.
now some on missed the point of an insult and thought i was accusing someone of braindamage.
:|
now also i threw in allot of sarcasm.
now most people took it as an attack on someone in that post. and yet again missed the point of "mocking" and enterprited it as "ATTACKING"

It all goes out the window when we all want to be 'liberal'. Nice happy families. Wouldn't want to go around hurting lil ole people's feelings.
I always fall into the trap of sarcasm coming out all wrong in type. You big smelly poo.

my point....
even you took welcome to HoP out of context, this has been talked over recently, in some very unhappy threads man.
i say "welcome to HoP" as a figure of speach, wether you have member number #39 is regardless and didnt come into my sentance at all.
i know you have been here since pretty much the birth of HoP but then so many other people have, regular names crop up daily, some once or twice a week, some once in a blue moon, not every one recognises a persons name, not ever one is as hooked on HoP as others, hence "welcome to HoP". things change.
just a point dude.... sleep well.

quote:< that comes accross quite agressive, but i am not going to take it that way. i know the point your trying to make, but not every one will sit there and look at posts from different angles, most people tend to jump in and vent. as which you just did at me.

Mocking is attacking. Here is the dictionary definition:
mock ( P ) Pronunciation Key (mk)
v. mocked, mock·ing, mocks
v. tr.
To treat with ridicule or contempt; deride.
To mimic, as in sport or derision. See Synonyms at ridicule.
To frustrate the hopes of; disappoint
Asking someone if they were dropped on their head as a child is not mocking at all. It is just plain rude and uncalled for.
Where do you not see this as negative? This medium is not one that lends itself well well to sarcasm at all, and so yes, comments made without appropriate web accomodations will be taken as abusive. You have been around here long enough that you should know better.
As an "old" member you should also know that you do not have the right to say anything you wish on here. You agreed to the rules that said you would respect other people and choose your words accordingly for the priveledge to post here. Mocking someone is abuse of those rules that you agreed to.
Now, Fireboy, you and I go waaaaay back, and I will tell you that the tone of this thread is really aggressive and un-necessary. If something someone says on here ticks you off, walk away from it. Don't read that thread again. And did you ever think the chances are that you also have misunderstood something to create such a conflict?
This is a topic that has been covered many times, PK is right. People are going to edit as they will and continue to try to make their points. It is a personal choice whether or not to give into it. That is the beauty of this medium, it is easy to listen or not, it is your choice.
I hope you have calmed down and if not, I would like to suggest that you walk away from the computer for a little while, as I don't know if your keyboard can handle the strain!
Know this also Fireboy, that just because you have been on here awhile does not make you immune to your posts being edited for content (please edit the "f" word accordingly) or threads that are viewed as unsuitable to be edited as well. No one, not even FF, Charles and I, are beyond that.

interesting.
*makes mental note*
The temptation to go into your initial post and edit the crap out of it is almost beyond comprehension. I'd change it to say how awesome the mods are, how fantastic and intelligent the discussions on here are (?) and how you apologise for offending anyone, ever. Then I'd probably add bits here and there about various fetishes and put out a call to anyone owning a stote.
I think I have to get off the internet now; will come back when I have matured.

I'm not fully educated in the names and spelling of English pests.
Why - do you have one? Cos I know this guy that is really into.... *chokes on own humour*
Pele - dunno! Tried really hard, but as it turns out there is no way I can be mature. I gave it a good 15 minutes before I gave up and reverted back to my old, terrible ways...

I guess you have free speech in Australia fireboy, most commonwealth nations don't (It's a very American concept). Canada (where I live) doesn't. We have freedom of press, but press is censored, and must abide by ethical guidlines.

Freedom of speech?
In America??? Hee hee hee, *rant* *twitch* *snigger* *twitch* Is it not written that to have free speech you must first agree with everything everyone else says? Hmmm, maybe its not. But it sure seems like it.
Yes I am bitter, very very bitter...maybe verging on psychotic.

Hey everyone I think you are all missing the point of the topic ,we wouldn't want fireboy to start shooting off dipsh!t comments at all of you too.
My advice fireboy is it is time to grow up.
The only time I edit posts is to add to them not take things out if that's what you are thinking.

well actualy there is a difference between fuck and f**k because if the constant use of associated "bad" words HoP will become in a catagory along with all the xxx porn, and we dont want that.
so can we [pokes self] all tone posts down like this very offensive post above, and can it be deleted mods or even modified? i think he should be removed from HoP personally, obviously he cant take a discussion very well, not heated or aimed at any one, less poiaholics last post.
i didnt see any need for that post [fireboy][not poiaholic22].
