Natural selection at work

I'm a guy who tends loosely towards agreeing with you on the content, and yet I am willing to say you are taking this way more personal than Sue, and ascribing motives and assuming opinions not at all expressed.

If that's the case, I apologize Sue. As I mentioned to LDub just now, given past experiences/exchanges on this website, I'm just used to a lot of the usual suspects nitpicking just about every comment I make on this site because of those past experiences/exchanges.

While I try not to cite those past exchanges every time something like this happens, I try not to forget them either as I'm aware that a lot of people these days like to adopt "I don't get mad, I get even" attitudes and just NOT LET THINGS GO.

Ok, but I have no idea what threads you are talking about, and thus don't have any preformed opinion about you. So your responses come across as if you are thin skinned, and more interested in winning the debate than providing insight or swaying opinion, and this tends to bury legitimate points you do have. This is also often my problem as well. so perhaps I recognize it in others. I once embarrassed myself badly on a forum, admittedly after a few scotches, by reacting strongly to an opinion including the observation that the person was possibly a sock puppet shill for the company in question. Turned out it was the forum owner. Not a shill. I was rightfully laughed at. So as a person that tends to knee jerk comment, aggressively, personally, and with intent to win, I can only advise you to ease back on the throttle a touch.

Your opinion is noted, along with the fact that it's based on a lack of understanding of the background history my comments were based on.

Everyone here is free to view/interpret the information I've relayed from the show Hot Coffee in any way they want, but the act of shooting the messenger usually speaks for itself.

I stand by the comments I've made as containing a reasonable amount of skepticism considering the people (and the other members on this forum those people consider friends)/comments/past histories involved, so while I think it unfortunate that you've embarrassed yourself by making the types of comments YOU'VE made and later regretted on similar forums, I'll decide for myself how to feel about the comments I've made, and I guess will just suggest that in similar future situations you maybe ease back on the scotch a touch.

I appreciate the concern just the same though.
