Preechr is probably a spambot

I vote with Kevin. That was uncalled for.

I'll be first in line to pick on Kevin for his inflated ego, but keeping discussions at least somewhat civil and on topic is what a mod is supposed to do. Abcdxxxx crossed a line, and now the discussion is about that instead of whatever the topic was. As you said, sspad, now it's virtual pinata time if anybody's interested, but this board has mods just in case nobody cares about civility and decency. You seem to be more offended that Kevin is enforcing I-mock's rules than you are that somebody broke them in a cheap attempt to get out of a conversation without admitting he was wrong.

Not everybody here is twelve years old, and some of us yo-yos enjoy talking things through on a more adult level. Maybe you just don't understand where the line was crossed, or why that line exists where it does. Don't feel bad. General Blabber is jam-packed with teeny-boppers that can't make a point without flinging shit. As they get older, most of them will grow to understand that there's a time and a place for flinging shit, and some shit you just probably shouldn't fling if you want to stay at the adult table.

There's a big difference between name-calling and mocking someone's fatherhood. Kevin gets that, and apparently you don't. There are some rules I guess I'm not as comfortable relying on you and the rest of the mob to enforce, and maybe that's a good example of why. Since Kevin is the mod for "Philosophy/Sociology/Religion/Politics/News/etc." and not the food forum, I'm thinking the Admins here agree that at least in this part of the board, the shit-flinging should be a little more limited here at the adult table than it is in the other forums.

mburbank~ Yes, okay, fine, I do know what you meant, but why is it not possible for you to get through a paragraph without making all the words cry?

How can someone who obviously thinks so much of their ideas have so little respect for expressing them? How can someone who so yearns to be taken seriously make so little effort?!
