Good observation. I was raised in a very opinionated home; however my Grandfather had differing opinions about each group that rstrong named. Example: There's a difference in a "nigger" and a Negro; a difference in a white man and white trash.
Until I accepted Christ, I had some of those "qualities"; however I still believe sin and/or wickedness to be what it is.

Re: What happened to Vrede? Answer inside.
Time has come to depart back to the deep blue, but before leaving I wanted to throw in one more pitchfork to honor the leaving of the Grand Fagmaster. I remembered the first post I read when I first joined here, and wanted to share it with you.
Vrede wrote to Bannination 'Mr.B has discovered my identity and I find that intolerable. I don't know how.' Well gee willikers Vrede ain't that a crying shame. After all this time your playing keyboard Rambo with others calling them all sorts of names, twisting their word's meanings, generally running them in the ground, you discover someone found out who you are, and you tuck your tail between your legs like a scalded dog and run shrieking away. Although I agree with what lessthantolerant wrote above, you got everything you deserved that was coming to you. We're going to miss you. Not. Later y'all.Re: They're Gone....."This board has no forums"

Well it appears this forum will become the new GoUpstate with the children accusing each other of their slights and swear words. Grow up children and let's just rumble.
Keep each others personal names and addresses out of the public realm and have fun debating.
Damn!, liberals become infuriating so quickly by their childish antics.

Re: What happened to Vrede? Answer inside.
It's a dumb comparison since I've used the phrase to describe both of you running from your latent tendencies and Mr.B running from fact and logic. I've run from neither who I am nor challenges to any of my posts.
However, I did choose to weigh the potential risk to my job over staying in this forum. If you want to call that "run shrieking away", so be it. You can both prove that you're braver than me. Leave all of your posts in place and post your real full names in the open forum. Then, homerfobe, you tell us your hometown and employer while unemployed Mr.B tells us, say, the name of his church. I won't hold my breath.
His PM to me was passive-aggressive, not the completely conciliatory one he claims.
He already was being "unscrupulous enough" to refer several times to my real ID in open forum, with enough information that I had never made public or communicated privately to him for anyone with malicious intent and basic research skills to do me harm. It's not like Mr.B is genius enough to have figured it all out from the forum. Someone gave him clues that he was able to follow.
I did not "sow" anything. I have never been intentionally dishonest like he routinely is. I have declined several opportunities to learn his real ID, even when visiting him at work years ago to play a practical joke. I still don't know his name or care to.
He earned my lack of trust by being a serial liar and sleazeball, period. billy.pilgrim is 100% correct even if there were no Mr.B lies in Mr.B's PM to me.
So, here's the situation I faced -
Mr.B was already revealing personal details openly. I ignored it since it was possible he was guessing. However, the moment I knew that he wasn't guessing I had to face the fact that he would continue doing so. Then, either he would get angry and petty enough to share my years of uncensored political and social views with my bosses or he had made it or would make it easy enough, as he well knows, for someone else to.
Does anyone really believe that, say, Mr.B's bigot-buddy homerfobe has the maturity or ethics to resist the temptation . . . if he had the brains to figure out Mr.B's clues, that is?
How about AndyJackson or any of the CPF wingnuts that lurk here?
Or, does it pass the sniff test that Mr.B put in all the effort to learn my ID without the intention of ever using it? Back when he got put in time out for a week for physically threatening me he even hinted that he knew more about how to find me than he had revealed.
Uh-uh, according to my patients, coworkers and bosses I am an excellent caregiver, one of the best they have, and I love the work I do. As much fun as this forum has been, neither it nor arguing with a bigot like Mr.B or laughing at a vulgar child like homerfobe are worth even the possibility of risking that.
homerfobe was being hyperbolic with, "Mr.B done run Vrede off?" and Mr.B didn't get that, but it's actually pretty accurate despite Mr.B's usual protestations of innocence.
At the moment I don't intend to reply to any other half-truths and self-serving excuses Mr.B posts here. Just take them with a bucket of salt.

Mr.B, as usual, has not been completely honest here.Vrede wrote:My real ID has been learned by Mr.B, something that is intolerable to me. I don't know how. I have a career here, this is an "at will" employment state, some of my views are not very PC in con NC, and I don't trust Mr.B as far as I can throw him. I have asked banni to close my account and delete all of my posts.
It has been fun. If any of you lefties want to stay in touch, ask banni, neoplacebo, JTA or k9nanny to forward me an email with your contact info. I'll reply directly or not as feels right at the time.

Re: What happened to Vrede? Answer inside.
I knew you'd be back.
I care nothing about destroying you or your career, nor doing you harm; I had hoped that the few subtle hints I did toss out before my PM to you would serve as a hint that I was on to who you were, and you would pick up on them and back off me a bit; but no; being the proud aggressive troll you are; you continued on. Finally, I decided to PM you and ASK that we dispense with the hateful back and forth mudslinging. I also showed you an old article I found about you on the Internet that I felt was especially touching and worthy of praise for what you've accomplished in your career. What did you do? You went all ballistic and didn't bother to respond to me; instead you "ran shrieking away" fearing some retribution from me.
What "earned your lack of trust in me" was that you found my beliefs and religious convictions would not sway my opinions in what you believed in; therefore you've branded me a "serial liar and sleazeball", along with many other choice name selections. billy.pilgrim is as full of
as a constipated elephant, and not even worthy of further comment.
Why are you so worried that homerfobe or Andy Jackson or any of the "CPF wingnuts" will or would even want to discover who you are? What you're saying is, you know your remarks and posts are so acidic, taunting, and hateful that you are in fear for yourself....
so Vrede...you truly reap what you sow. Own it, live with it, suck it up, put on your big girl panties, and all those other hateful sayings you're famous for.

If Vrede and others did anything at all, it certainly was "simply". What else can be expected from a simple mind?
The title of this thread is a clear indication of the intelligent thought that went into naming it.
You can see by the drop in the number of posts after Vrede's departure, that if it wasn't for Vrede, you brain dead imbeciles can't even think without him, let alone post something of your own origin. Vrede shows up, and the pages suddenly come alive. That tell you anything?

Maybe just one more for old times sake? billy.pilgrim says Mr.B is a lying cocksucker and a pos. Bannination says that Mr.B is an ass and a total bastard. Vrede says that Mr.B is a sleezeball and serial liar and rstrong comes running out of the shithouse to agree with him.

The faghuggers seemed to think it was perfectly OK for Fagmaster Verde to suggest that Mr.B's wife is a cocksucker. Mr.B retaliates with a threat and gets banned. That's perfectly OK too with the faghuggers. Now Mr.B has an insurance policy hanging over Fagmaster's head, and suddenly, he's the lowest form of humanity, short of a real life cocksucker that is. Mr.B, I told you that you should leave these lowlife faggot lovers to themselves. Maybe if the world is lucky the nasty bastards will curl up and die with the rest of the nastiness and filth. As far as my having any latent tendencies, you're daydreaming and scrambling for something so cute to say and use as a pitiful comeback. Ain't working. Just saying.

Re: What happened to Vrede? Answer inside.
Every social group needs somebody to step up and be the glue that keeps things going. To think up things to do, to check up on group members who haven't been around lately, to introduce people to each other, to organize dinners, parties, whatever, to delegate and encourage participation and make sure everybody is included...yada. Vrede had that role in this group. He was willing to respond to most any post, from the reasonable to the ridiculous, and had the patience to hold feet to the fire that would be much happier trampling roughshod over facts and logic. He created storylines that the rest of us could enjoy and join in, and whenever you wanted an actual intellectual discourse, he was good for that too.
The strength of this forum that differs from others is also its weakness - that it has a limited number of active members. But as such, we're familiar with each other as something close to real people even though we generally don't know each other IRL. In a way, it's like knowing characters in a TV show or a book - you know them well, feel like they're your friends even though you know they're not "real." If the show kills them off, you feel a real sense of loss. The key factor in all that working is not to confuse and not to blend virtual and IRL reality. Although some on this forum (and others) use their IRL identity, most do not. Those who do not undoubtedly have their own reasons, and those reasons should be respected. In my case, I'm pretty much the same person online as IRL, but I don't discuss irrelevant controversial issues like politics, religion, etc. with my clients. And I wouldn't want identifiable content lying around to introduce those issues into my client relationship. I wouldn't want somebody trying to attract one of my clients to be able to say, "look, here's your lawyer "O Really" making fun of Easter" or some comment taken out of the context of the forum discussion.
As Banni said, to even attempt to find the IRL identity of a group member and then to use that identity as an "ace in the hole" is despicable. This, like all other forums, is a voluntary relationship, expected to be mutually entertaining and enjoyable for all. Forums are not real life - they're entertainment. If I am not happy with the way things are going, or if I find a member to be more offensive than I want to deal with, I can drop out. And I've done that for several forums before, like Topix. As offensive as our own "homo" is, I wouldn't try to expose his sorry ass to anyone IRL. I can just decline to read or respond to his posts.
So yeah, Mr.B - you've taken the sleaze-bag approach with your "ace in the hole" and your "reaping and sowing" analogy. Don't expect "O Really" to continue to find you entertaining. Too bad - I'll miss "Mr.B" too.

But insinuating my wife is a "cocksucker" isn't despicable, and hanging that "Mrs. B is fair game"and using that as his "ace in the hole" isn't? I thought you had better scruples than that; guess it's true what they say about lawyers.
So yeah, Mr.B - you've taken the sleaze-bag approach with your "ace in the hole" ...
Yeah, I'm a sleaze-bag because of our differing opinions; had I been one that agreed with you all and went along with everything you all agreed with, I'd be one fine little 'ole dude. Vrede and homerfobe are two of a kind; both are volatile and hateful and have no regard for anyone but themselves. Perhaps you may have forgotten how Stinger and Ombudsman fell out of favor with Vrede; when they began disagreeing with him, Vrede turned on them just as he did me long ago when he found I wouldn't compromise my religious beliefs with his (quoting homerfobe here) "love of faggotry".
I said Vrede couldn't stay away; whether he does or not, matters not to me; but...there will come a day when another one of your ilk will fall out of grace with him, and hell will rain down on them. It takes sleaze to counter sleaze; but in your world, sleaze is only found in those who's opinions differ from yours.
In the meantime, I've checked my "insurance policy" and found it doesn't have an expiration date.....So suck it up.
