Why stop there? You forgot to mention your freaking age? Think maybe that has something to do with it? I think you and I have had this discussion before, but let me remind you. You, and several others, have posted entirely too, too much personal information about yourselves. I know for a fact that with a few clicks of a computer I have the information and means to be standing on your doorstep within two hours. Scary, isn't it? Think perhaps anyone would be so inclined? How about anyone not a member, just a lurker, who reads the same titillating intended post? Someone unknown to anyone. Why tempt fate?
Sweetie, there are inherent dangers with the internet. And you are not big enough, bad enough, or aware enough to know what half of them are. Many adults aren't. Literally, "...There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy."
And I don't need anyone here to profess how mature they think they are. Past post have already indicated those in need of emotional development. And there is ALWAYS someone smarter, craftier, slicker. You kids, and yes that what many of you are, have been playing with fire when dancing with adults.
Now that aspect doesn't even address the lack of respect in many of the post lately. What I can't comprehend is why anyone would see having their post deleted as a source of pride, badge of honor, something to which one aspires. Oh, that's right, I'm not looking at it through a child's eyes. For you see, son, that is what you are. And I can almost excuse your lack of judgement because of that. But to continue with the same course of conduct is not only foolish, but reeks of insolence.
And what I can't excuse is the lack of respect from the older crowd. Why do some feel this board is their own personal playground? Papa addressed it very well but I don't think he came down hard enough. I'm sure many of us have seen some of the antics that go on when Rob or Craig are away from the board. Yes, often posters go back and delete or edit so things don't look the same in the morning. Often things slip by. But because something hasn't been caught and admonished, does that give one license to continue? Be it the Topic or Off Topic board haven't the administrators indicated that there are guildlines? Some subjects, especially as posted by juveniles, are taboo. Some comments crossed the line of barbs and have gone to the jugular.
And I personally pray to God to never see another attack like the Mr & Mrs Roxy threads. Love or hate a poster, but at least deal with them in a civilized manner. There is a glaring lack of respect shown to all members of the board when many of these threads are posted.
I don't mean to sound harsh, and don't want you to think all these comments are directed to you, BT11. I'm not attacking you. But there is a time and place for some of these threads. This doesn't seem the place, and the time I suggest would be a few years in the future.
Rest in peace, Iflitifloat.
