(2,500 posts)If I violated the TOS of this board, then the jury itself did not think so. This means that you disrepect juries as well as individual posters.
Let me point this out in a hopefully obvious way by using your own words above as an example of how you operated in the past and now in the present. You said:
Like I said earlier, I believe in leaving the stupid up for everybody to see.
Anyone who disagrees with you on any point as I have on two occasions recently, automatically draws not only your ire, but an insult to go with it. Do you see anywhere in this post where I have insulted you in any form, backhanded or elsewise? Look at that underlined comment again because I am going to reference it again. To your form, you view any disagreement to your commentary as being necessarily "stupid". There's no room for self-reflection, just your logical conclusion that someone is stupid if they oppose your viewpoint.
It is very often the case when personal insults lead to jury decisions and generally the reactions to insults that inevitably lead to TOS violations. Most people have learned over time and experience the methods some posters use to bait (with insults) and then silence (with tombstones or jury alerts).
So, I am grateful that you have your own words to view up and down this thread. I hope that you are now aware that at least this one poster believes firmly that any discussion with you ends up not being a discussion at all, but rather is a denigrating and even perilous venture.
It should be noted that I was only aware of the Jury alert and their decision because another poster openly objected in a separate post on this forum. There are jury decisions all the time and we never are allowed to see the outcome unless we participated on the jury itself. But, this one was publicized in another thread by the alertee themselves, which justifies my reference to it as public knowledge. My thanks to those on the jury who patiently rendered the decision in my favor.
