He said "Fuck."
How quaint...:)
I don't think all Junoers are dumb... I happen to know several poeple who
use Juno that are quite intelligent...
Also, I don't pay for my E-mail, nor do I pay per download... However,
tehre are those that do, mostly because they have no choice. And they
would have to pay, regardless if they used that piece of third rate
programming called Juno (Gee Mom, it's free... It must be good... Yeah,
you can catch Siphelous (SP?) for free too... Don't make it good).
Unfortunately, several of the esteemed list members (Sascha and Gurth, to
name a couple of the more established) are stuck paying per minute of on
line usage, because thier countries charge for phone usage, regardless of
whether it's local or not.
Now... You, on the other hand, and people like you, are the reason that
AOL, CompuServ, and Juno have such bad reps... They're too easy to access,
and any Joe Rip-Claw with a couple of brain cells to rub together can get
on-line with them. You get on-line, and into forums such as this (A
Mailing List), IRC, and the Newsgroups, and you open the little hole in
your head located under your nose, and you prove just how intelligent you
really are, and manage to annoy or piss off everyone around you at the same
time.
You, little Crab-Claw, are the bane of the Internet. You lack the manners
of a four year old, have the attitude of a 10 year old that just had his
favorite toy stolen from him, and have the intelligence of a turnip. You
spam mailing lists with your drivel, you flood newsgroups with inane idiocy
that is meaningless and worthless, and you fill the newsgroups with posts
that, if printed out on paper, would only be worth wiping my ass with.
You whine at every little slight, imagined or otherwise. You complain that
everyone is picking on you, yet you still lack the grace and poise to post
something meaningful to the list to prove you are worth listening to. And
when you do respond, the best you can do is a childish and immature name
calling that lacks any imagination. You sound like a Junior High Schooler
in a name calling match during play time.
Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't even bother replying... But I've
had a lousy day, and am tired of listening to your inane babbling and silly
name calling. You haven't even got the intelligence to figure out what
"Please trim your posts" means, nor the more direct "Trim off the
.sig", or
even the blunt "TRIM YOUR DAMN POSTS!". That doesn't give me much hope for
your even understanding half of this post, but then, I don't really care.
Now, Mr. Rip-Craw... If you would like us to treat you like a human being,
and respond to you civilly and with the least bit of respect, I suggest you
adjust the attitude problem that you seem to posses, and show us some
understanding of ettiquette, a little maturity, and some intelligence.
Otherwise, keep silent. I won't tell you to leave the list. That's not my
place, nor would I ever want someone to leave. But with the load of mail
that I get every day, I expect a little intelligence and forethought in the
posts that I read, and at the least, a little entertainment.
I have been accused, with very good reason, of being one of the worst
offenders of the Off Topic post. It's true, I am. However, I would like
to think that my posts, while not always Shadowrun, are mildly
entertaining, informative, or interesting, as well as being mature and well
thought out.
Think about these things, Joe, before replying again. I am trying my
hardest to be polite, while still stating what I think and how I feel. I
am also sending this to the list in general, rather than private email.
This is not something that is normally done, but I wasnt others to see
this, and think about it. There are several others out there who have made
similar mistakes, and I want them to know that this isn't solely directed
at Rip-Claw.
Now, what have we learned from all this?
A) Think before you post.
B) Try to be polite. Netiquette will gain you friends, while being rude
and making an ass of yourself will simply get you kicked off the list, or
at the least, long letters such as this from Myself, Spike, and any others
out there who are tired of listening to you blither like an idiot.
C) Don't be a blithering idiot.
D) Don't start public flame wars unless you have asbestos blood.
E) See points A through D several times more
F) TRIM YOUR FUCKING POSTS!
With that said, I'll send this off now...
