Re: Three Little Kittens
Well, all I can say is that I can own my share of the discourse that has occured here. It never is my intent to single anyone out or cause trouble. I just post my viewpoint and do everything I can to make sure my point isn't directed at anyone in particular. I've been posting here since 2001, and I can't remember having anyone after my arse as much as has been happening recently. I am not sure what I did to set him off, but he has made a conscious decision to single me out, take my commentary out of context, and try to slide in as many insults under the radar as possible. Then he is suprised when I don't stand for it. Baffling.
I like to believe I have been getting along fine here for the last six years, but then most of my post count is in the help section, not here. I could go on about people who come to Iboats, never actually contribute to any help sections, and just stir up poo in DC, but that usually is realized eventually by the population here.
Yeah, I know answering questions in the help section isn't a necessity to use DC, but most of the people here have areas of expertize that have helped countless amounts of people. There are the others who come and ask questions about their boat issues. Then we have people who come, ask two token questions in a help forum, then run up a high post count stirring poo in DC. If a person doesn't have a boat problem, and doesn't answer a boat question, what on earth could compell them to stay on a boat site if they are not here to cause problems?
I don't want DC to go away, I don't even want the political stuff to go away. I recommended getting rid of it as a last resort, if the troublemakers can't figure out how to make their point in a civilized manner, like everyone else on this site does. I don't really think that is too much to ask, I mean, this isn't the wild west here.
Then I have been thinking maybe I am the problem here. Maybe I need to be the one to go. I mean, hey, I am left twisting in the wind most of the time anyway. I figure if no one has my back here, why should I stay? I can be next in the long, long lineage of long term contributing members that have been driven from this site by poo stiring troublemakers that have done nothing but cause dissent. These poo stirrers suck the joy out of this place while they dazzle you with their bullshyte, just remember that when you are telling me to not let the door hit my glutial region on the way out. This is not the place it used to be....
