    Default The Liberal and Excalibre Need to get a room thread

    Here you go, the room is all prepared. Plenty of lube and condoms, plush cushions, foam bats and boxing gloves.

    Er, the rest of us will be over here. Pay no attention to the cameras and peep holes.

    And......GO!

    Can I hide in the wardrobe? I've been given a photography assignment by the Snark Pit.

    The two of them have about 850 posts between them. Like it or not, they are at the forefront in establishing the tone and personality of the board.

    Appearing in less than .5 % of the boards threads, no matter how many times, is hardly representative of the board.

    Indeed. There are several posters with post counts in the range of either of them.

    1,011 threads. The accused were involved in 4 of them. 1% of a 1011 approx 10.

    4 = nearly half of 10... where've I gone wrong?

    Uh, no. Didja look at any of my links? They have been ripping each other's throats out since they got here. This is to try and protect unrelated threads from the blood spray. It stains, you know.

    So let's form an arena and gather to point and laugh. You know, as much as I hated the "no bad language in the pit" stupid rule, this bloodsport here that you guys are starting is just obnoxious.

    Almost as obnoxious as your pathetic sniping in every thread you appear in.

    Go and get your own house in order before you come in here with your snide nit-picking.

    The PTB? Nothing. I still think this thread is stupid. I'm calling out posters here, not the mods. Relax.

    Ah, the good old "I know you are, but what am I" defense. Good one. So you agree that this thread is obnoxious too? As obnoxious as you accuse me of being? I've won over one poster already! Put 'er there, pardner.

    I'm guessing that the idea behind this thread was to hold a mirror up to two hotheads in the hopes of helping them see how silly they are being, ideally so they will stop crapping up the rest of this brand spanking new board. People like discussions, and people like fighting sometimes, but very few people like watching a couple of posters hijacking every thread with their personal vendettas against each other.

    Pretty much so, featherlou.

    And to allow the rest of us to poke a bit of fun at them about it too. Too bad there are people who get the vapors over such things. It was meant entirely in fun.

    No it wasn't a 'good one', I actually left myself wide open for your comeback.

    But, I noticed you didn't address my second point which was far more relevant, seeing as your comparing this thread to a 'blood sport' is well beyond ridiculous!

    I think that was what caught me off guard with my first comment.

    Has anyone ever told you you're a moron? Because you're a moron. This isn't "bloodsport" or "goading" anyone into a fight. It started out as "hey, could you guys take your dumb argument to a different thread?" and progressed to "please, for fuck's sake, take your argument to a different thread; here, I made one for you."

    As much as I like both Liberal and Excalibre, I'm pretty goddamn sick of seeing them bring up their imagined grievances with one another in random threads.

    Reread the OP. "Plenty of lube and condoms, plush cushions, foam bats and boxing gloves." Not real weapons, not any wishing for them to harm each other or tear each other apart.

    This thread exists purely for entertainment purposes and is not an endorsement of hatred, anger or violence between the two people invited to take their feud here. Any reading of this thread as "blood sport" can only be indicative of severe brain injury or a lack of reasonable cognitive ability on the part of the interpreter. If this is you, turn in your computer, because you're too stupid to own one.

    Frankly, I think it's funny as hell that neither of the two principals has posted here and they've both been pretty damned quiet today. Point made, I guess, but I do hope that they both come back and remain members of this board.

    Alright, point made and completely misunderstood all around. Time to close this thread.

    Liberal came back to me, unhappy about this thread and some other issues which I will not go into here. I have attempted to explain to him and will explain here.

    Firstly, I'm pretty much on Liberal's side of the equation. We never had much contact on the dope, but we've had some here and I thought we may become friends. Unfortunately, he's upset with me over this and I understand and apologize.

    But as I explained, when two people are persistently scratching and kicking at each other, wrestling across four different rooms (threads), it ceases to become about who started it or who is the bigger ass and starts to become about "why won't those two knock it off?" This thread was intended as a light hearted stab at that point, hoping that one or both of them would get the message.
