Saddo don't go stealin' my thunder man! Someone Sad Clicking me is TOTALLY different from ME being able to Sad Click everyone else!!

You can't just go snatch up my/our Saddo-given RIGHT as true born Saddonians to Sad Click, that's just Un-Saddoist God Damn it!!! I will not sit here, typing, on my laptop that I paid for AND paid taxes on and be told by some English teachin', naggin wife havin', commie halfway across the fucking planet that I can't Sad Click anymore because some British midgit with an unhealthy love of Dakota Fanning disagrees with him on whether or not of the State of Israel was justified in enforcing their blockade of Palestine. I want my God damn right to Sad Click those two pathetic bastards until they make friendly again back!!!!

I'm not just in this for myself....I'm in this for everyone, but mainly myself so I can sad click the crap out of some people.



Besides, I got called a racist for typing "YOUR BOY" and miles had some sort of mental breakdown after playign Red Dead Redemption, give me a break big guy!

If you're going to start topics and continually post controversial opinions on issues which people feel strongly about, you can't be surprised when some people get upset. I don't see why you'd leave over it. If it bothers you that much, do what I did when and just ignore those types of threads.

These 'poor me, goodbye' goodbye threads are fucking weak. Nobody ever actually leaves after they make one.

....Dang and that's coming from a Canadian!

Well, it's fucking true. Posters take all kinds of flak for posting all kinds of things and they rarely leave because of it. The motive behind every single one of these types of threads that I have seen isn't to actually announce a persons leaving, it's to solicit responses from other members encouraging the person that they have to stay and how great they are and blah blah blah. I'm not going to do that.

I like Miles, I like talking about boxing and music and a million other things with him. He's a valued, long-time poster and I hope he remains (as I suspect he will), but the forum won't die without him. I've been here for over 4 years now, a thousand people have come and gone in that time, and I can count one one hand the number of individuals whose leaving has been truly detrimental to this site.

Miles: I hope you decide to stick around, but you need to relax. Get high, get laid, take some pills or whatever, but just relax. Talking about politics (or in your case incessantly arguing about Israel and America with the same 4 or 5 posters) on a motherfucking boxing forum is nothing to get genuinely upset about. Neither are sad clicks. If you want to talk politics and be taken seriously, why not find a political forum where a large number of people actively debate these types of issues? I'm sure there are a million of them out there and perhaps you would find the types of discussion you are seeking there.

Speaking like a true Canadian.

So Miles blew sad clicks for everyone. What the fuck

Had to be done I guess, I think I had the most sad clicks of anyone but Miles for some reason. Oh well. RIP On this second go round with the clicks I happened to like the sad clicks more then the cool clicks. But still cool! Wooo oh well at least I sad clicked a few people.

[Nameless]

It was written in the sky that some kind of abuse would lead to the demise of the sad click. I wouldn't be that surprise that the abuse on the other side might lead to the demise of the cool ones too. So in order to keep that golden piece of the glorious past of Saddo, behave, gentlemen

I was seriously dead set on leaving and not coming back. Honestly, I was quite upset because I see myself as an everyman who isn't particularly radical (but who does have an interest in current affairs). I started a thread on the UN report about the assasination of the flotilla members and then suddenly I was swamped by about 30 sad clicks. All I was doing was starting a thread that I thought would generate some interest. My political threads usually generate a fair degree of curiosity. We see this in the amount of participation in them and this one brought the last one to a certain conclusion. I must admit that I thought it was Bilbo on the rampage. He is the only one who goes at me for these kinds of things and it just seemed like him. However, it wasn't. Bilbo is one of my favourite posters here, so I actually feel a bit bad thinking it was down to him.

Otherwise, I seem to have actually made a difference to the site in erasing sad clicks. I actually have no beef with sad clicks and think that they are justified. However, I think sad clicking someone 30 times in 5 minutes is really nasty. More so if the person is a veteran with over 18000 posts to their name. If you have an issue with them, then why not get into the thread and debate with them?

Some of you have been mean in this thread and others have been really nice. For those who have been nice, I thank you. And I thank Saddo too because I was quite hurt and his responses made me realise that I was able to come back.

You are right, most people start "I'm leaving" threads to garner a response. I didn't though. I was really angry. As soon as I started a thread about Israel I got 30 sad clicks. It made me question myself. Am I so extreme that it has come to this? "I don't think I am extreme, but the clicks won't stop coming". Maybe I should exterminate myself?

Anyway, thanks for the kind words. I appreciate it. You are one of the forum members here who make me think. And that is always a good thing.

[Gandalf]

My final point is that I don't think I have controversial views. My views on subjects such as Israel are not controversial. Is it not a fact that Israel has built on 42%of the land illegally taken since 1967? My views on this are not controversial, Israel's actions are the controversy.

[generalbulldog]

Just out of curiosity who was the culprit that sad clicked you that many times?

Anyways this place needs an extreme leftwing commie liberal, just to balance the extreme rightwing redneck rants of Lyle. You and Lyle are like the yin and yang of this place. We can't do with both of you leaving.

It was Youngblood. He is a guy that I respect, but I would respect him more if he would debate with me rather than run around with a mouse.

In terms of manners me and Lyle are twins, but in terms of ideology we are political opposites.

Most of your views, the ones you've expressed on here at least, don't strike me as all that radical (aside from the Yuri Foreman episode), but they way you present them at times has a tendency to rub some people the wrong way and that (IMO) tends to make them appear more extreme, or at least more rigid and thus pointless to debate (the English teacher in you must love the structure of that last sentence ).

I'm hardly a fan or a supporter of the Israeli state, and I'm a strong advocate of the needs for Palestinian rights and restitution. However, while I may disagree with the other side of the argument, I can appreciate the perspectives of those who hold contrary beliefs and I respect their reasons for doing so, even if I disagree with them.

That is something, in my experience with you at least, that you seem hesitant or unwilling to do in these types of discussions and I think that could be where the problem lies. It's not uncommon for people to act that way when they feel passionately about something, but in my experience it tends to stifle legitimate debate and leads to hostility and anger on all sides.

Plus, it is a bit exasperating to see the same topic drudged up over and over again. I think that plays a role in all this as well.

I hope that doesn't come across as harsh or anything, it's just my $0.02 on the whole situation.
