I hope for her that she is.

Why is it that when someone disagrees with the majority and has a strong opposing stance, he is labeled a sock account? I'm referencing Phyllis's "I don't think Dave is a real person" comment. That's a bit much. Dave could be completely wrong in his statements but to say he is a troll or a sock is just cowardly. It's almost as if his statements offends someone so much that that person NEEDS to come up with an dirty excuse to discredit him. That's just playing dirty. Call him wrong if you want but he has been on this board for awhile now and is certainly not a troll or fake. IT IS POSSIBLE to disagree with someone on politics and still respect them without resorting to nasty methods. 

Personally, I can't believe all of you are up in arms about this. Talk about making a mountain out of a mole hill.

Dave19 has a rich posting history that makes it very hard to take anything he says seriously. He's like AfterEight.

I'm sure he's looking up at us in disgust right now.

I've never seen Dave post anything that would annoy or make people angry at him. Could you give an example (besides this thread) where he has done this before? I mean sure, he's obsessed with that Les Mis film and goes a bit overboard about movie musicals, but I wouldn't qualify that.

Thanks Bilbo3! I have been thinking of that myself too. It is probably due to some kind of doubt about their own opinions or inability to discuss.

It could also be that they know the OP is trolling and they like to join in. Shame on us for letting us get fooled then.

Because a personal list of personal types or personalities that a certain person likes to see OF COURSE needs no explanation whatsoever. The world would turn into a complete fake politically correct lying mess if we would try to.

Bilbo,

The OP is not trolling.

Dave19 has a history and you can look it up.  He is contemptible and is all about talking to himself and a whole load of self rightous indignation.

You are losing my support as a born again poster by continuing on this path on this thread and with Dave19.  

Leave Dave19to his smugness and just stop.  Or maybe you can search his posts.  

And stop top with the I don't understand.  Just stop and quit posting on this thread.

Mar6411, stop with your personal prejudices and attacks. This is a discussion forum and we can talk about any musical related subject we want and people can say what they think about it without getting personal. Bilbo can say that he doesn't understand some people whenever he wants to. Who do you think you are to have the right to silence people?

What do you expect, that one can not make a list of favourite personalities anymore without being judged? And everyone will understand? Get over yourself.

For anyone in this thread: A personal list of personal types or personalities that a certain person likes to see OF COURSE needs no explanation whatsoever. The world would turn into a complete fake politically correct lying mess if we would try to.

 

If you think this is the solution, you are part of the problem.

Ah I see. So it's the 'Join us or be hunted' mentality. Like I stated, Dave could be completely wrong in his statements. I'm not discrediting why people are angry at him. My point was, If you are going to oppose someone and debate with them, then do it clean. That's it. I know I have changed on this board and I believe my posting history of the last year backs that statement up. I'm sorry I am losing your support but I also was not hell bent on getting yours or anyone's support. After this thread, I will stilll show people respect on here and not go back to how i acted 3 years ago. This thread will certainly not have any affect on that.

No one is under any obligation to use the board the way you think they should.
