I'm not hero, i'm no moral keeper, I'm just a normal guy with a regard for addressing people with respect regardless of how one was approached. You guys are the example as you've likely been around a while and have some seniority (which is not a problem) You are the one writing on the cuff of your emotions.

I think you guys do a swell job, I just thing in regards to this post, there had to be a better way to show the whole forum why this wouldn't work. You don't make a good impression when you guys respond the way you do.

Lastly, for the record, I don't know TEC, seriously.
yes i said it. i am sorry that i am "emotional" about things i care about like this board. i am also sorry that we are not up to your standards. i do think that we explained many times why this will not work and yet, people refuse to listen. next time when someone bashes this board and its members, i will just go up to him and give him a big hug and tell him that i love him and that i will make everything better... now if you will excuse me, i had just about enough of your psychology and theories of defensiveness which i already know quite well. back on topic....

I don't understand why computerguy and TEC are having such difficulty grasping the idea that coming to evom is a completely voluntary effort. If you fellas don't think that evom is a good source of info, then don't use it. There's more than one library of info on the net. Some websites are just worse than others. Hell I don't even trust Wikipedia as a site to obtain reliable information from, and that's a website that's CONSTANTLY being policed. Why? For the simple fact that the articles are submitted by the general public and not by people who are paid to get it right like those who write for Britannica or Encarta. Seriously, what do you expect when it comes to FREE information?

I won't bash you publicly like you have no problem doing. I am the bigger man.

All that needs to be said is you are clearly not a leader. (not that I am)

AGAIN, show me where i bashed you publicly....

it seems that you are very sensitive so if you want, i will just refrain from talking to you. i am not used to people always being offended by every word on an internet forum, so i appologize...

now if TEC will come and read the information posted since his last logon and see that there are reasons for everything maybe we can all leave this thread to die.

I still don't see how you think blonde started the bashing here. I was offended by what TEC said and I'm no mod.

thanks for the support Dan but you are fighting a loosing battle here. this is not the first time we had this sort of running, we had another thread were he was offended that one of the mods told him "spare me computer guy" and he critiqued us all for being rude and for having "holier than thou" attitude...

Dan, you weren't RUDE, that was the difference. I have posted 2x now agreeing with your side (Dan / Blonde/ others) yet no one has said, FINALLY or whatever...

Blonde, you have the ability to close this thread as it seems pretty closable, some good points have been made to support your opinion, however you keep it open to get the last word and/or be childish.

Even moderators should be held to a standard. Get offended but be the bigger person, how come no one agrees with that?


That other thread is here: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...5&page=1&pp=15

I posted in response to RobertK stabbing the originator of the thread. Please get your facts right.

I was given a childish response by someone else after I made my comments about your (mods I guess, but not all mods are alike, so i give the others the benefit of the doubt that they are mature responders) attitudes.

i keep this thread open because everytime i close thread like this i am being called a **** and i get hate mail..

as for me trying to put the last word,so far i have seen you with a reply to every single thing i said. i also thought that you were leaving this site after what happened in the last thread?

however, to show you that i am the bigger person, i will do what you and some other people can't do even though you pride yourself on being "mature", i will simply ignore you and avoid further conflict (i always wanted to know if the ignore function really works). the thread will remain open because other people might want to respond.
