Not trying to be funny or anything, but some of you may have realised the various disagreements I’ve had with johnny_knoxville and Suz since they joined the board.
I agreed to keep my mouth shut in return that they wouldn’t have cheap go’s at me for little to no reason whatsoever.
The latest example is this:
johnny_knoxville wrote:
ok…
since an invasion of cock gobblins has caused another thread to be taken down…
For those unaware, he is referring to the thread that was in General T?opics about collecting and collectors, started by Suz.
And I am assuming that I am the “cock gobblin” because since I joined in on the thread it was closed swiftly.
I quoted Souldoubt in a reply, and Suz randomly tried to start an argument with myself.
The argument dragged on a bit and I made a post saying that I would say no more on the matter. The thread was deleted.
Then, knoxville creates a chillpill thread, in which I took the quote from, most likely trying to annoy me.
Those that were on the boards when I first joined know that I’m a pretty decent person, and I like a bit of banter / craic and I enjoy joining in on discussions.
Although I think this is just a step too far and both myself and knoxville have previously been warned about our behaviour on the boards.
Not trying to pin the blame on anyone here, but I have tried to be more mature but I constantly read posts that are shallow minded and in some cases abusive towards other members.
Being referred to as a Cock Gobblin isn’t the nicest thing in the world, and there was something in the Collector’s thread about people who collect various T? items being sad or having more money than sense.
Like I’ve previously said, I’m not trying to have a go at anyone, and, yes, I have lost my temper on two or three occassions, but none of us should read a lot of crap on these boards.
Fair discussion & banter: OK
Insulting & a general prat: Not OK.
