Violent and stupidity on these forums, John?

[Matthew Gates]

hey John, I don't read much of what goes on in the Chit Chat forums, and I didn't really want to bud in at all, but they are acting really immature in there. Targetting people. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about, but now they've gone passed the limit and created a name offending someone! That's not right, I'd be pretty upset if someone targetted me, and probably do all in my power to get them banned. Whoever created the name must be pretty stupid, because you can compare IP addresses. Well, it's all left up to you.

Hate to be the tattle teller, but this is not a place of war, this is a place of learning and speaking about all kinds of things, not targetting people and turning people, that you barely even know, into enemies.

Matthew...mainly we stopped...but have you EVER tried to talk to Nukem?

Trust me...you wouldn't want to :(

Hey, don't blame me for it -- I was the person who was nice to him the longest until he really lost it and started randomly insulting people and being extremely immature, even if he is only 13.

I think if everyone agrees that it stops here, it will. Most people use this primarily as it was intended - for VB related stuff.

[parksie]

I'm willing to stop, as long as he keeps his part of the bargain and acts maturely. We actually acted way within our rights as people, and I don't think it was totally unreasonable. However, everything DOES have a limit, and I think we've definitely reached it.

I'm still trying to find out who the new user is.

I am sorry for everything I said, but he just pushed me a little too far, death threats is where it really starts to get personal. He is a complete ass, and he deserves everything everybody said to him. Perhaps they shouldn't have said anything to him, to keep the peace, but it is really hard to avoid saying something to him, when he is doing it to you. It's like if you're out in the street, and somebody just starts hitting you. What do you do? You run away, but they follow you and continue beating you. Do you just take this? Or do you kick him where it hurts until he stops?

I think choice number two is what most people would do. Again, I am sorry for all I have said to him, and about him. But he wen't much too far for me to just ignore him. And I think others agree with me here too.

I am sorry for anything offensive I said in the 'should we injure nukem' thread. The first couple of posts I made were just 'for fun', I didn't really mean what I said.

Matthew: I like you. You're fun to talk to, and nice. But before jumping the gun and "telling on us", did you even read any of nukem996/Dark Programmer 's posts? They are completely inappropriate and immature, we were just responding. I agree, we were being completely immature, and we should not have been. But sometimes you just can't take **** like that from a person.



not targetting people and turning people, that you barely even know, into enemies.


He is the one who started all of it. Had he acted sane and mature like everybody else, we would have said nothing to offend him.


Once more, I am sorry for everything I said in either of those posts.

[parksie]

Dennis may be sorry, but I'm not. Maybe I'm no better than he is -- a lot of people would disagree with my attitude here. But my philosophy for things like this is that if you walk up to someone and smack them in the mouth, don't expect them to go down quietly.

You misunderstood me,

I am sorry that other people had to read what I wrote. But I am not sorry for insulting nukem, he is a jerk, and he needs to be tought a lesson or he's going to be in jail getting it by a guy named Bubba before he's 16.

[SteveCRM]

I think you only go to a juvinile prison when your 16...I think when you're 18 is when you go to real prison. Don't ask why I noticed that, just stuck out to me for some reason :confused:

Well, whatever.. I made my point, and that's all that matters.. :p

[Jeff_1]

The chit chat post of "stupid stupid moments" was not an attack at nukem or anyone here.. i actually had a legit point to that post..so next time you pass judgement...make sure you know what your talking about.

[HarryW]

Who said Bubba was over 18? ;)

I never said that thread was bad, but I saw a little about Nukem in there.

To tell you the truth, I don't really care about any of it.
Never spoken to Nukem, so maybe I don't know how he is, but creating a name offending another person isn't right.

I didn't mean to bud into anything, but can't you guys take your anger out in an ICQ chat? :)

Forums isn't for violence.

Can't we all...just get along? :D


If you wish to continue, I will just leave it be. Guess I won't read any of those boring titles anymore :rolleyes:.

[HarryW]

It's all very well saying "turn the other cheek" and all that but the kid won't learn not to act like a complete tit if everybody acts like his behaviour is perfectly normal. Yes, this is a place of learning, and initially all we were trying to do was correct him on a concept that he had got pretty badly wrong, but he started saying he was right and everyone else on the forum was wrong. Admittedly, when it became clear that he wasn't listening, people got annoyed but people get annoyed with each other all the time, it's no big deal.

I think he deserves anything he gets, after seeing some of the things he has typed in the last couple of days. I agree with Dennis, when someone starts handing out death threats, especially with nothing to back it up, they're not worth treating with much respect.

Frankly, asking people to just get along with him after what he's said is asking too much, especially since you haven't talked to him yourself. Is Nukem a victim of persecution? Too right he is, but he asked for it and that's the way life works, something he has a lot to learn about.

[Jeff_1]

To take an outside view on a subject and then try to have an insider's point on that same subject isnt correct.

The chit chat forums are just that ..Chit chat..matthew i dont know what you were expecting...but it does say "talk about absoluetly anything here".

I am not sorry for making a "Boring post"..what is exactly not "Boring" in your opinion?? this is am curios about.

No hard feelings..but i have little tolerence for taddle-tells.
