I just ignore the thread I'm getting ripped on in, unless I'm right, and go on with life.

Its not like any of this actually MATTERS . . . whatever that idnut guy would say.

My orig post was about a different topic & suddenly I'm dealing with complete BS from someone that has no clue about WTF they were talking about.

In real life I have lawyers talk for me, set a personal record last summer with 5 on retainer @ one time, back down to 4 now. The cool thing is that I pick my battles in real life & win the arguments that really count. IE: had arrest warrant served on ex wife & haven't heard a peep out of her for 3 weeks now. It's killing me not knowing if she's still in jail or not:evil:

The best revenge is living well & buying a router table that adjusts from the top:D

Personally I think your wife (based on your description of her) is more happy you have to have 4 lawyers on retainer. To me 4 is an excessive amount for anything less than millions. I don't know how she goes to jail based on child support if she's no longer a citizen in your country though, deportation I would understand.

Dude go to hell.

I didn't ask what you thought, and BTW, go to hell.

Mods, just freaking ban me for life.

I'm tired of this asshole, and if you were doing your goddamn job, he'd have been banned a long time ago.

Never triple qouted myself before.

I don't get mad, I try to get even.

Umm...who cares? If it makes them feel better about themselves, who am I to interfere?

thanks to brut for bringing this up. I've noticed a recent surge in the level of pointless arguing on the forums lately. and I'm not just talking about that whole XM fiasco

Getting ripped can take many forms.

Like mis-speaking and saying something stupid and being taken to task on it. I can usually blow it off.


Or, being ripped because you acted like an ass, I guess I might dwell on it.


Or, being proven wrong on some topic, oh well, change is normal.

In that case I'm sorry I called you an idiot. ;)

For my first 400 posts or so, I was totally ignored.
Then I was quoted occaionally.
After 1,000 posts or so, I was complimented twice in public and about a dozen times in PM.
Now, someone will have a go at me in fun, and it is kewl, as I have a great sense of humor, and like a good laugh. No one has ever been mean to me or insulted me. And for that I am thankful.
;)

I just try to piss people off.

Like I always say : It's better to be infamous, than famous.

For me it depends on what was said and the mood I'm in. If someone makes a personal attack, basically picks on me while ignoring others who have made the same comment, it bothers me. I'm over it quickly though. There are just people on AT who have to say something mean. They just don't seem to be able to help it. It's just something you have to get used to I guess. :)

I think it's funny. :) It allows me to go into a defensive mode and argue, or a playful mode and attack back, but either way I do find enjoyment in it. :) But if it were outside of Internet chatting I would cry. :(
