Okay, Stephen. If that's what you want to do.
But I will say in Stephen's defense that he's been very helpful about deleting spam and other crap that occasionally finds its way into the forum. Which is something that he does behind the scenes and may not be as visible to everyone else. Of course, there was that thing about changing other people's post, but he seemed to learn his lesson. |

It seems he left out "So there!".
I'm sorry to see you do this. I don't remember anyone "attacking" you except Hairy (and who listens to him anyway?). All other comments that I recall were within what was considered "acceptable bounds". Especially since your continued pomposity just screamed for abuse. Admittedly most of us have acted childishly and needed to be slapped down, but most of us have learned something from that as well. I'm sorry you didn't. |

at the risk of making a further personal attack, is someone feeling a little ignored? maybe the whole self-knighthood thing didnt work out quite right? |

Stephen, do what yo feel you have to.
I really don't think you're making the right choice by leaving, mostly, I guess, because that's not what I would do in your situation.
You have been helpful to Alex, and therefore to all who visit the site, and I hope you will continue to be, if you stay behind the scenes.
I did concede, in your 'Female wanted' thread, that you did make the occasional good point. Because I choose to not respond when you're just being a dink does not mean that you should leave.
When I'm being a dink, I know it, and expect to get smacked down. You should, too. Sometimes I'm quite shocked when I'm not, and feel that I deserve to be.
As for personal attacks, I don't remeber making any on you, I just remember:
1.) Responding in kind when you were being a dink
And
2.) Pointing out why I responded to you this way.
But, like you said, this was your own doing, just as the decision to no longer post is your choice.
And I really think that you lost the last of some people's respect when you pompously knighted yourself, and kept pointing out how it 'made you better than us', just because you typed SIR in front of your name, and referring to others as 'beneath you'.
All in all, I'm sorry to see you go.
Even though you acted like a dink to me and never did apologize for what you did, even in the end. |

Hmmm...I must not be hanging out in the right places, because except for the aforementioned thread ^, I've not seen these personal attacks...oh, well.
At any rate, I've always thought that a (mostly!) nice group of people comes here, and it's a shame to see dissent and in-fighting here. I can't force you to stay, of course, Stephen, but I do wish you'd reconsider. If nothing else, I've always found that when I get into conflict with people, they're most annoyed when I stick to my guns...heh.
So Stephen, good wishes to you as you go on your merry way, and I hope that sometime you reconsider and come back.
(Not positive exactly who this is addressed to, but...) And I really haven't seen many/any of these personal attacks, but if they're really as bad as they're alleged to be, can we please tone it down just a bit? It's fine to attack someone's arguments; it's not so fine to attack the person. As I said earlier, I've always liked the atmosphere in these forums, and it would be a shame to have that spoiled.
Friends?

I dunno know, Stephie-boy. Personal attacks almost seem like an initiation. There was a short span a few days where everything I commented on was attacked. Apparently I was some sort of lying cyber nut. A short biography later, I'm okay.
Let's all flashback to the 70s. I'm okay, you're okay. |

I have noticed, so far, that nobody is agreeing with your decision to leave, Steve.
But we have yet to hear from Hairy and Raoul 😊
And ED, why did you call Hairy a flower? And why could you not type the whole word flower? Or did you mean finger?
Sorry about being off topic on something I consider quite serious, but I just HAD to. I'm sure Stephen would understand, but now we'll never know, will we? |

Are we expected to believe this!
This is a hoax forum, he's hoaxing us.
April 1st was over a week ago, but if he'd pulled it then no one would have beleived.
Personally I have nothing against Stephen, true he acts like a dork sometimes, but then don't we all. I know there are times when I've written a long scathing comment and then not posted it, other times I do post and then think later - 'Oh you stupid pratt why did you say that.'
Pratt - I'm never too harsh on myself.
Seriously though I think in a week or two when Stephen has got the attention he wanted (can't think of a better way to put that, sorry), he'll jump out and shout it was all a hoax. |

For the first time, I watched this new show last night called "Con". Now, this was some funny stuff!!! This guy has become my new Idol. My question is, can this stuff actually be pulled off with out the T.V. camera following you around for people to see????
Since we all love hoaxes, I recommend everyone checking this out. I hope to attempt a con like this myself, just only have 2 ideas at the moment.

...I delete very little content on this site. I try to look at things objectively: No matter how stupid someone's post is, it's still their personal opinion & has no right to be yanked. I have never deleted a comment by a MEMBER. I have gotten rid of SPAM posts & thread(s).
The rate that things have been deleted made me worry a little that Alex would tighten the reigns & take away privelages. This would make his SPAM-deleting a little more time consuming for himself, but it would keep the site from feeling like big brother's hand rests on your shoulders while you type.
Anywho...I wondered what could be solved with Stephen NOT posting. People will still go off topic, make fun of each other, get mad at each other, start flame wars...we'll just do it to someone OTHER than Stephen.
Whatever. I can't believe I'm even posting in this at all. This is STUPID. NYA NYA! 😕 |

Ah, Stephen. You have been insulted. This requires redress. I, Raoul, call for you to challenge those who would say such things as to pierce your pride. You must face them in a duel for your nobility. I know that I, Raoul, would not cease until they cried "Tio", this much is true, for I am too much the man. Should you choose to remain without honor, I have need here in Australia during my tour, of one who would scrape the Llama dungs from the tire treads of my Chariot of Fire. If you are that man, come quickly, for the dung is piling up around me, and I must continue the tour. Earl J. is an impatient taskmaster, and stationary air does not well compliment the Llamas.

Brave Sir Stephen ran away.
("No!")
Bravely ran away away.
("I didn't!")
When danger reared it's ugly head,
He bravely turned his tail and fled.
("I never!")
Yes, brave Sir Stephen turned about
And gallantly he chickened out.
("You're lying!")
Bravely taking to his feet,
He beat a very brave retreat.
Bravest of the braaaave, Sir Stephen!

Words cannot adequately capture the essence of that which is Stephen. The loss of Stephen would be a great tragedy indeed, rivalled only by the horrible events of October, 1957. The World cannot contemplate such a thing again. I, Raoul, implore you, Oh Saint Stephen, to rejoin your compadres and be happy, for your despair gives me great discomfort. No, wait...
