For sure, I think I overreacted, but I am not someone used to being attacked for no good reason. I got all of those sad clicks as soon as I started a thread about Israel commiting criminal acts and I just thought "screw this, I'm a good man trying to tell something for what it is and start a little debate, and all I ever do is go to war over it and get dragged through the mud". I was half expecting the sad clicks to come along with the usual "miles, I think you are an anti semite!" comments.

I just got the red mist and flipped out. What happened happened and I have chilled out. If it were to happen again I would probably react differently. It's no big deal, YB played a joke and the forum got a bit of gossip. For those who really miss the sadclicks (namely VD, Lyle and Andre) I am sorry, but there is no good reason to be able to cool and sad click someone without limits.

In response to VD's comment about a grown man being reduced to tears by a kid. It isn't that simple. I was pissed off rather than crying and half expecting base insults to come along with the clicks. You try having an interest in a topic and then for people to say that interest only boils down to anti semitism. That can piss you off a bit, especially when it simply is not true and is used simply as a way to deflect an argument. However, this wasn't the case and I misread the situation. It was YB having a laugh. I didn't know that at the time. If I had known then I would obviously have reacted differently. Amat neg repped me twice in a row, but told me about it immediately. I was fine with that.
