Re: Shooting Fish in a Barrel
I'm probably only be having this conversation with y'all once, so listen up:
Words have power. Do I really need to cite a few? The Bible, Martin Luther's Ninety-Five Theses, Mein Kamp....
I know that from your point of view it's just a little fun and after all, it's just a message board..blah..blah..blah. It's never just a message board - it's a community. Human beings form communities - it's what we do. TK has no rules, EI does.
If every person who ever joined an online community were reasonably healthy and well-balanced, then trolling would be an amusing pastime. But the internet is also a refuge for people who have very real problems in their lives, and when you bait somebody who can't fight back, it's not only cruel, it's like shooting fish in a barrel.
RobL, I know you were just joking about shooting the fucking computer. But Psyche's a kid, she loves that computer, and it should have been obvious to you that you were upsetting her. But instead of having your fun and moving on, you made a big joke about it in AQG and just kept right on plowing ahead. Do you get my drift here? Picking on people who can't fight back is childish and malicious. Period.
I came here to read the threads about EI because it was obvious from Natolii's posts that you had sent her off the deep end and I wanted to know why - I rightly figured that it had to be TK threads that did it. You can call me a fat fucking cow and I'll figure that you just have an extremely limited vocabulary.
Calling Natolii one is just not O.K.
The gist: Taking potshots at people who can ignore you or who are capable of fighting back - cool. Taking potshots at people who obviously have problems - not cool.
I'm amazed that some of you are old enough to have kids, because I would have thought it would have caused you to develop some empathy. Guess the empathy gene is missing for you guys.
I work with special needs kids all day, and if there's one thing that makes me see red, it's people who hurt my kids - either consciously or unconsciously.
What you've been doing at EI is making a mess, and going after the weakest in the bunch.
That, in my book, makes you juvenile morons.
If you've noticed, I finally had my say with G1223 too. I don't think it will do any good, but I tried.
You can try to justify your actions by saying you're just goofing around and having fun, but it's not fun anymore when you hurt people.
And CoyoteUgly, I have nothing but contempt for the fact that you used you used your wife's brother to post rape porn and then whined when you got banned. I didn't say anything because I figured the whole thing was self-explanatory. You both deserved to have your asses kicked out.
I'm sorry that y'all have a hard-on about Rovvie and Slipstream and what happened there. Tough shit. Grow up, get over it, and move on.
Any questions?
Overrated piles of garbage. Shooting one would be a waste of a bullet.
