Not a bad idea, but then again just like using a free e-mail account I'd probably never check it. Then I might actually miss the valid e-mails I do get from ATers.

Because while you may hope that nobody takes action for offenses you put forth on them, reality is that isn't always the case. Would you provoke a big dude on the street for no reason ? Be smart about things... because they don't always turn out the way they *should* or within the realm of any rules. You don't control everyone... so when you piss off the wrong person... well you know.

Umm... thanks for the advice, but I can truthfully say I've never been attacked by anyone on the street. I do understand you point, it is just that I disagree that I should get spammed for insulting someone. I DIDN'T EVEN SEE the picture! It was gone by the time I got there.

You could forward copies to your usual email address and nuke the address that gets spammed if something goes awry :)

Calling people ugly is a peeve of mine. Generally practitioned by extremely young, stupid, and immature (even considering their age) people who are themselves ugly, though being good looking and doing it is no better (if a bit less ironic).

I'm willing to bet thats becuase your no less a coward. You have that E-thugness. Online, behind a screen you can say everything you want, but go out in the world and you dont because you know instead of getting spam you'll get an asskicking (Maybe, maybe you'd kick ass. I dont know your fighting abilities). Its usually that way with a LARGE majority of people online. Its easier to be brutally honest when you dont have to worry about catching a face ful of fist.

Been a problem for you? Sh1t tends to draw flies. We'd probably have a lot more sympathy if you didn't practically lobby for bad karma.

That said, spam is out of line and extremely immature. Since it's a continual problem for you, you might try to figure out a way to get a disposable account to deal with it.

Then why did you attempt to create some lame photoshop about me? See that's the issue right there. You are the one acting very immature by illogically defending someone based on a principal that you are actually violating yourself. In some circles that is called being hypocritical, and it others it is referred to as rectal-cranial inversion.

hmm, an immature asswipe says something to get attention. gets attention. cries "foul" to get more attention.

i'm feeling something and it ain't sympathy.

you're like the kid in 1st grade who goes around pushing people's buttons to see how far he can take it before someone punches him, and then runs to the teacher to tattle on the other kid when he gets hit.

a mod needs to play yard duty and send both your asses to the principle's office.

Cause, Mill has a really sexy ass and I'd like some alone time with it in the principles office. ;)

How have I ever acted like an E-thug? I'd like an example of anytime I've threatened anyone physically, or talked as if I got into daily fights. That's quite a reach you are making that I'm a coward because I haven't gotten into a fight on the street. That's some incredible logic, and I'm not sure what tangent of you are flying out on. I will say that I'm the same online as I am in real life. I'm actually a very nice person for the most part, but I can't stand stupid people. You can ask any of the people that have met me such as the skoorbs, othwell, aves2k, etc. I don't think I'm that much of a jerk unless someone deserves it, but I'm willing to say what I think. oniq and tinkerhell have both dished out plenty. Regardless it is not the same as spamming my box(comments that is). It is not like I lack tact. I'd never do/say something stupid that would have dire consequences in any situation.

Gee, now how is it attention seeking when I've made a handful of posts in the past month? Just because I spoke my mind? I didn't even see the freaking PICTURE. I just made the comment because of the way oniq treats people(he acts as if he is superior).

Rofl, right... that's the same excuse Nik made when calling a girl ugly when all she did was post her pic in the last pic thread. That's the same excuse your type always has when the sh*t hits the fan & sprays back on you; you weren't serious, you were just kidding! You didn't mean it at all... :roll:

So lets go full circle and make this completely tautological. If certain people weren't always jerks then perhaps a comment wouldn't have gotten made to them. If that comment wouldn't have gotten made then I wouldn't have been spammed. You can go on and on and on about karma and the like, but those tow members have been just as mean-spiriting(if not worse) about many topics. Are we stuck in a never ending cycle of karma, or is it like most threads? Some people don't like me here, so they just disagree to disagree. That's fine.
