Hmm, yeah, because asking why people are so harsh is more rude than calling a stranger a fuck-whatever. Ok.

You asked, and you were told that it's because we like it that way. You then proceeded to lecture that we are wrong, and that we should change to suit you.

Yes, it is. You're new here. Do you walk into your neighbors house and start to criticize how they clean? Do you stop strangers on the street and ask them why they are wearing plaid shorts with a paisley shirt? You don't do those things because it's rude. Same thing applies to Internet communities. This is our house. Follow our rules and social conventions.

A) 'I' said fuck-whatever because different words including fuck were said.
B) 'I' never said anyone should change to suit me.. this is where your paranoia comes in
C) Actually in places when people were getting unfairly treated i WOULD interfere.

Your one type of person, and 'I'm another so don't tell me what 'I'm doing, what 'I' might do or the manner in which 'I'm saying something.

We need a sheep bingo.  Squares can include:
"Grammar doesn't matter"
"There's no need to be mean"
"I work in _ in real life, I know more than you, why you make fun?"
"WWJD"
"I am dyslexic"

Extra BBS style square:
"OMG, what if there are children here? Will you be mean to them too?"

A) 'I' said fuck-whatever because different words including fuck were said.
B) 'I' never said anyone should change to suit me.. this is where your paranoia comes in
C) Actually in places when people were getting unfairly treated i WOULD interfere.

Your one type of person, and 'I'm another so don't tell me what 'I'm doing, what 'I' might do or the manner in which 'I'm saying something.

You never used the words 'you should change to suit me', but you did point out that we are not polite and implied that we should be, and gave pointers about different ways we could go about it.

So what reaction would you give your child (if you have/had one), say a teenager who had accidently spelled something wrong. If you told them how to spell it properly you wouldn't use any of the language that people use in here. My only point is that on forums where you get people from everywhere, you are going to get mistakes, some people are just excited about getting a point across or something so rush the message. When you read over it, it really doesn't matter if 'their' or 'there' is round the wrong way. It's the content that should be important. But even if you can't help but get bothered by it, there's different ways of going about it. That's all

And since when, forcing other people in their home to suffer your annoyance is polite? You're demanding we change in people who don't care about your rudeness, so yes, you said that.

So even if 'I' did point out things, that still wasn't saying you should change, so 'I' was right. And i've also not demanded anything. It's like you've had your own conversation with me where you've decided what i've said. If you don't think you are doing anything wrong then perhaps i'm not doing anything wrong either. It works both ways, but you seem to think only your way is the right way. I said yonks ago that 'I' get the concept of this site and i'll get on with it, but you still can't stop at that. Everything i've said had got twisted anyway so my original posts have become something they were never meant to be.

Snuffelbutt, if all of us are reading your posts in this way and that's not what you were trying to say, maybe you should be more careful of how you express yourself. You can't really expect us to know what you mean if it is not what you write, can you?

As far as i knew 'I' wrote how 'I' meant things to be taken, but 'I' mustn't have written it easy enough for you because it ended up not being taken that way. So perhaps we BOTH made a mistake. Maybe you should have been more careful how you took it.

What I am saying is that all the regulars here, plus some helpful long-lurking n00bs have interpreted your posts in the same way. Not just me. If we are not getting what you mean, you should express it differently.

Okay, stop with the 'I' crap.  That is childish and definitely not what was asked of you.  Your obvious butthurt over being told that you're not following the forum rules is just showing again with this latest post you've made.  Just stop arguing and trying to justify your stupidity already and get with the program or leave.  It's simple really, and you're not doing yourself any favors by keeping this up.

Different "from", not "to".  There is so much that is grammatically wrong with that sentence.  Tut.

But really, this is degenerating into "Didn't!"  "Did too!"

There ya go, someone else who has told me what i am apparently feeling and apparently doing. And being just as tedious as me. Childish to make an 'I' standout, but not childish to pull up every typo? Again, okaaaay. And if i'm like that why do you feel the need to HAVE to say something. Anyway i said my piece, you all said yours, no ones been wrong. A site has the right to ask for something, i had the right to stand up for people not deserving names of all kinds. Both disagree with the other but i had posted telling i understood. I'ts kinda been over for ages now.

LOL.  I don't know about everyone else, but for me?  It's because it's Friday afternoon, it's so hot that all the cats are drowsing in the shade, my hard drive is taking forever to defrag and it's more fun to prod the MATY forum than anything else right now.

So, you're saying we should redefine the actual meanings of words and phrases to fit whatever it is you're trying
to express?
That's a fantastic idea and I'm sure it will be implemented right away.

No, i was simply saying that you're fast to blame me for the fact you took me the wrong way, without thinking that perhaps you had something to do with it too. And again, assuming the way i said something. If i had meant to say 'you should redefine the actual meanings of words and phrases to fit whatever someone is trying to say', i would have said that. So please just stop jumping to the worst possible side of the spectrum of what one can mean.

If we all typed our words without taking any care to make them form sentences that mean what we wish to say to the majority of people who read them, then we would be unable to communicate effectively.

Blah blah.

To borrow a quote from the beautiful Patrick Bateman, I fail to see how this is my problem.

Waffle/woolgathering.

Thanks for sharing? I'm confused as to why you would bother telling us this though.
No reason, really.
I mean, there's no links to actual porn and allegedly we can't Google this porn star, so what's the point?

The simple truth is this: these people are not capable of dictating terms to another human face-to-face, so they take the easier (and slightly cowardly) alternative - to attack and gang up on 12 year olds on the internet, who dared to make a spelling mistake.
And how pitiful are thee.
