The plan

[Matt Deckard]

The plan to destroy america thread has been sidelined.

Too much drama. There are plenty of other forums that can be used to stir up peoples emotions. We are all here to have fun and make friends. Posts designed to alienate and reek havok are just for the sole purpose of alienating and reeking havok help no one.

Funny, I didn't take the thread personally. I'd treat Biltmore Bob, jamespowers and Wingnut to a beer anytime (but they'd have to share it among them!)

Too bad. There was some good writing in it. We're adults, Matt; we could have handled it.

 

[Biltmore Bob]

Oh, for crying out loud...the freaking drama...please. I thought we big boys were playing nicey nice for once.

It's not deleted, just put to the side for review of the MK. He has the final say.

I do believe that everyone in that thread was trying to make others think about the topic.

Exactly. The Boss has spoken. Without him we wouldn't have this forum in the first place so it is a very small diversion. :fedora:

And whatever the Boss decides to do, I will accept. But before that moment comes, we can certainly express our views to him about it, in order to help him decide.

I am not against political threads by any means... it may be back.

I am not too keen on the person doing the riling up just dropping of quotes of others as a first post and as replies. No lagitimate talk on the subject from his point of view, just post after post of cut and paste. He himself left nothing to quote.

Just fueling a fire with other peoples rhetoric is not a way to debate an issue.

The post was not removed simply for content... it was removed for the motives of the poster and his seriousness on the subject.

'sokay, I don't drink. :cheers1:

 

[Veronica Parra]

I too would have liked to read Biltmore Bob's own words. As it is, he left us believing that the quotes reflected his own point of view.

In any case, we had plenty of other folks expressing their views in their own words. I salute them.

'sokay, I don't drink. :cheers1:

Root beer, then.

 

[jamespowers]

'sokay, I don't drink. :cheers1:

Good, that means I don't have to share. Make that an Old Fashioned hold the garbage (fruit). :cheers1:
Rootbeer?! He prefers: :coffee:. Read the avatar.

Cut with a little Red Bull while I code, slice and hack.

I've got permanent jitters. If our clients knew just how strung out their site coder was, they'd go shopping for a new website builder.

Oh no! Not Red Bull and Coffee! You are kidding right?
Well, welcome Wingnut on legal speed. What sites do you build? Web sites for NASA rocket fuel?

You don't know my motives. As I stated in a previous post it was "for academic purposes only." My motives are suspect because I didn't state my position? What's wrong with dropping quotes? Some folks say things better than I do and I usually give the source. Whats' wrong with throwing out a bone? It seems like it was a gentlemanly discussion.

You want to know my position on illegal immigration? Well here goes...

It's illegal, so it's wrong. But I don't want to mow my own yard either.

OOh blinky the cockatoo. That is interesting because raising canaries is one of my other hobbies. :cool2:

And furthermore...

Matt, you went over Jamespowers' head.

If you know anything about me by now, you shouldn't take me too seriously, as some folks do.

It's just a freaking message board for crying out loud.

Wait a minute now. I moved that message not Matt. He just posted that it was moved---not closed or deleted. It might come back. Just be patient. It has to stand the test of scrutiny that is all. Lets give the Lounge crew some credit for being even handed now.

[Biltmore Bob]

Just messing....

Don't take me too seriously, that would be a mistake.
