But if you're going to talk shit about someone why not wait until they are actively posting?


A lot of this started with me calling out something directly I thought wasn’t cool. Two mistakes in that:

1) I thought we’d all give each other a hard time, laugh it off, and get back to arguing in good fun. I try not to use truly mean language, but I should refrain from using sarcastic language.

2) The moderators politely reminded me that’s not how they’d like things addressed.

I’ll never go to the moderators and complain about someone behind their back. If discussing things openly isn’t encouraged, I’ll agree to disagree, but not start another call out.

Wait. Huh? What happened with FIMC? Jimmy Googs? Editing comments?

You guys are so silly that I can never keep up with all of the unexpected series of events around here.

FMIC. Not to be confused with Fat in Man Charlotte. I hate that poster.

That's the thing. I do not think most of the arguing that goes on is in "good fun". I think a lot gets taken personally which I include myself with that. Although I would rather bury any hatchets than continue to used veiled shots at one another.

Totally agree. I would never resort to such a tactic. I'd rather we bang out any differences here in the public forum.

About a week go fmic put up a post that he allegedly fabricated from an archived thread changing the names and words. Using it to try and ridicule Jimmy Googs. Googs was onto him and found the original post and put it back to him but he hasn’t been heard from since.

I’m not sure if you were around BBI in the Wild West days, but people used to be pretty nasty on here, and it spilled into the real world.

When FMiC says my posts are ponderous, and I call him Kool Aid Man, and he calls Googs clowns shoes, and Googs posts the escape hatch — I’m pretty sure we’re all just kidding around. I sure know I am.

As far veiling shots — I agree. Eric used to describe BBI as a digital bar where we razzed each other — but knew when to stop. I think most of us, including you adhere to that.

When I called him out, I figured he’d own up to his bad joke, tell me
to go to hell, and we could get back to arguing over Dave Gettleman. Who we all know is the real villain = )

Bmac - It clearly appears so here in this case.

Those were the days. That's when BBI had grit and real personality. Brass knuckles and switchblades. It was kill or be killed...

Now? It's just soft and sensitive with the cricks of the world... ;)

Definitely sensitive.

But hell, just change the names and words on an old post and put it out there if you don’t like what is being said. Problem solved.

I'm sure it was meant as a harmless joke.

I mean, who hasn't dug up old posts and edited them to make a poster look bad... ;)

Is sensitive about something that others are not.
