I am appalled by some of the posts that have popped up here.

Some from folks that should know better.

The level of negativity and schadefreude. is bad. So is loosing a member with close to a decade of time.

What is scary is that people just like this are walking down the street every day. Right near me.

May I suggest some of you re-read your posting and ask your self, "How would you feel if you children would to have known you wrote something like this".

I am appalled by the fact that you are appalled by it all. I am appalled that you are appalled at all. I am appalled at how Paul watches Kids in the Hall. I am a stalled cement wall who has made a great haul. I am called Saul, who you had better call.

I am appalled we all are not watching Kids in the Hall right now... that reminds me... I hate the Swiss!

I'm pretty OK with this:

I observed a brief moment of silence.

Now I will go back to not caring when someone posts a rage quit or a pity quit.

You're pretty new, so you may not realize that every once in a while someone gets all righteously bunched about something on TB or OT and does a rage flounce. Rather than most normal people, who would just walk away, they make a thread to garner attention. That also usually fits in with the person's general posting style and personality pretty darned well. Usually that person has been doing their best to be abrasive in how they talk with others here, they're usually mad about some kind of rules that they've broken that are CLEARLY spelled out. They may even be aware of some of the more subtle aspects of how this works, but they choose to play the 'poor me' card or the 'TB is unfair' card.

They then come here and post a ragequit. And the tradition is for people to generally do what everyone is here doing. About 50% of the time they actually come back to stir the pot even further.

There's that word again; "schadenfreude." Great word.
