You seem like a chill guy. Never said anything against you or felt anything the other way around. Still... in the last couple of weeks do you not see the outlier? The source of your troubles, if you will. Nothing?

Also, you don't have enough fan boys to mega-post a forum like machine gun fire at a tiny target. And even then you could get banned. No one wants to see the same name attached to half the threads on the home page, regardless of topic, views, whatever.

Be well. Please do. Sounds like you've got gear to envy, so own it and become a monster player. Just don't raise your hand in class every 30 seconds and then question detention.

I am not lonely, and I'm stone cold sober.

I am getting sick of being told to shut up, in one form or another.

I assumed the same but not in such a negative context. I assumed you both enjoyed attention and perhaps (based on your posts about being drunk) drank semetimes before posting.

In my case I have replied to you hoping it was received with humor. These are always in OT and I am assuming you are trying to have a bit of fun with it.

I do believe some others are genuinely frustrated with your OT posts. In your posts yesterday about this I tried to explain that double posting a topic two days in a row is perhaps annoying people. Then you said, see he wants me to shut up. That was not the point, I was trying to explain why others are annoyed.

Sarcasm and humor do not always come across. So I'll be clear, I enoy your contributions even if sometimes you post too much OT. And I never felt you need to shut up.

All boards have a dynamic where there is some neighborhood watch behavior going on. As the poster above has said, it's the worst when a mod is leanient on some forum regulars when they try to push off a member. I've been embroiled in trying to stop bullying on a board and you get targeted as well. Stinks to hear that has happened here but not surprising. It's a large group of people posting things they would never say to people in real life.

But do the daddy-issue flies feel better?

the flies never had daddy issues, they were drunk and happily eating tacos until the moment they perished. The daddy-issue worms, however, had an existential crisis after their dual abandonment by both their parents and their host. A full half of them committed suicide by cop, and the other half were admitted to a 5150 ward after they attempted to kill themselves by slitting their wrists, only to find that they didn't have any.

These pages of responses should tell you something. I know this isn't the first time people have told you about all your threads. So I don't need to tell you.

But think of this its like you don't shower in months and walk around. Everyone tells you that you smell horrible. Many people would think when's the last time I showered? Then they would also look at that fact multiple people are telling them they smell. Many people would figure out at that point they smell and would go shower.

So hopefully that makes sense I can only speak for myself but you seem like a stand up guy. Just keep in mind when making thread post them from a neutral point of view. Example why doesn't everyone take their hat off inside? Why do people have their hands in their pockets?

Instead try: Do you consider it rude to wear a hat inside? Then you can share your opinion. Keep in mind TB is full of all different walks of life so it's a good rule of thumb to keep in mind people come from different cultures here. Where for instance a hat inside in your eyes is rude but it may be the opposite for someone else. People come from different cultures and are raised differently and that's ok. That's what makes TB so great.

Also keep in mind TB is a forum with a good number of people. Some of those people have been here since gas was a nickel . It comes down to this forum belongs to a community and it's important to let that community speak. Even guys with fan boys catch flak for posting a lot. Now TB is welcoming to new comers but just like entering any community or group get a feel for how things flows then jump in. No one wants to see the forum turn into one guys view.

Please understand, please take the suggestions and please don't start a thread about guys picking on you. You're are not the first to do this and it only digs you into a deeper hole. Instead take the high road and send everyone new basses .

Regarding the poll. I have been censured by a few who I was 'nannying'. They got banned.

I prefer OT discussions about real world issues other than wardrobe choice. So sue me if I don't respond to anything else that has no impact on my world.
