Goodbye N.S.F.W (sorry Milo I've posted a Plumper pic in your thread - from Big H)

[Kev]

I always miss the good shit So what do we do about sc's or neg rep or just expressing out dislike for someone haha? This is sort of like the public schools taking the "F" out of the grade system as to not make the little kids feel like losers...or failures We need the red number back.....a scarlet letter of suckery and a battle scar. Miles are you back from leaving yet...didnt you make one of these goodbye things last month

You give them neg rep. I am not actually against sad clicks as in how they existed before, but I do disagree with unlimited amounts of sad clicks from one person per day. That is not just a battle scar, that is a flagrant abuse of the system.

Last month was just to announce I was going on holiday whence I would be quiet, this time I just got pissed off.

Fair enough Miles. Personally I hope ya stick around. You have passion,cant knock that. Have to say and no one asked you can go over board with the broad brush at times but something has to be said about taking speaking ones mind. When you insist on standing upon a high perch you have to know some will love to kick you in the shins repeatedly. Dont let them see ya sweat.....ecspecially if they are from Canada

I've made myself look a bit of a girl with this incident, but in a way I am glad it happened. I have taken it all on board and learned from it. I see no reason to dilute what I say because at the end of the day, what I say is what I truly feel. So, I will post as I always have. However, I will show a thicker skin against anyone who tries to criticise me or deflect my arguments with nonsense about ant semitism.

I watched a documentary about Norman Finkelstein the other day called "The trials of Norman Finkelstein" and on the whole I found it very interesting. I had my little tantrum the other day, but watching this documentary really put it all into context. This is an expert on the region who has really been put through the grill because of his criticisms of the Israeli state. The documentary shows his detractors outright calling him an anti semite, that he is full of identity issues and racked with self loathing etc. All this for taking apart the books of those who tell lies about Israel and for showing an Israel that the media all too often chooses to stay quiet on. Alan Dershowitz, a notorious Zionist fraudster, even set up a malicious campaign to stop Finkelstein gaining tenure at a university and led to him having to resign. Finkelstein even got banned from Israel for 10 years for his views.

Anyway, it made me realise that my little trials and tribulations here are nothing when put against that kind of nastiness. I will remain as I always do, but no more threats to leave. My biggest issue with the string of sad clicks is that I thought it was someone who chose to do that rather than openly debate with me. That to me was the ultimate act of cowardice. I would never do that to anyone else, run from a debate and leave a string of sadlclicks. A real man should have the courage of his convictions and debate it out. To sad click someone 30 times isn't only a joke, to me it is a serious sign of disrespect and the anonymity bugged me. It could have been anyone in ninja mode and I actually thought it was Bilbo and that thought annoyed me too. But it wasn't him.

I'd never sad click you Miles. Anyway, you shouldn't get annoyed with me as we both need each other. Without me to respond to your Israel bashing all of your threads would just be you posting largely to yourself. I think that most of the forum are about as interested in Middle Eastern politics, the coexistence of man and dinosaur and biblical prophecies fortelling Armageddon, as much as they are the pro boxing career of Kid Thunder.

I like debating with you, Bilbo. It's good fun. We go back a fair bit on this site and have always got on, but the only way I could piece it together was that I started another Israel thread and got rained on with sad clicks. Who else could it be? That's another reason for my madness, not only had the person not debated with me, but it was quite possibly Bilbo, who is a person I quite like. Why would he do such a thing? One Israel post too many? And you do have a mad mischievous streak and I thought that maybe this had taken you over in a mad dirvish as well.

It wasn't you and I am glad it wasn't. We might not agree on a couple of rather major world issues, but generally speaking I think we get along okay. We each have our own quirks and eccentricities, but we always have the Baggins clan to unite us.

I always take our debates in good humour mate. Not having the internet much these days I have to choose my posts carefully, and only ever respond to people I disagree with. That's what forums are for, if everyone agreed there would be no need to post anything.

But as long as much of humanity remains in the dark as to the world's true origins, meaning and destinations then old Bilbo will be here shining his light in the darkness and providing you all with the unblinkered truth.

You two should get a room.

That's not fair on Kid Thunder.
