The drift I get is youre a coward quaking in his boots. None of your description tells me anything personal that can be exploited. At least thats smart.
Post your address. Youll feel vulnerable in a few days. Lol
Right there, normally, that post would get pulled. Most people would agree with that decision as well.

I'm not moderating this thread, so there you go. Have at it.

Calling people names should get you kicked out of a thread.
If you can’t make an argument without resorting to personal insults, you’ve already lost.
So, give the losers a break and let them be who they are. Jesus forgave those who knew not what they did even when they killed him.

Where is the love, Coby?

And that is why it is hard. Nothing implicitly wrong with that. I am 100% a coward when it comes to sharing specifics on a public thread. Someone pointing that out does not deserve punishment. It would be like pointing out that I am fat. The truth will set you free.

Now, if he had said something about being a coward is sub-human and gone into a threatening tirade, that would be different. He even made a point to compliment the other poster and added lol.

At the end of the day, different people will read things differently. Assume positive intent and focus on the real problems.

I wouldn't agree with that decision. It would be a shame to shut a person up every time he has something to say. Getting hurt by words is an emotional sickness that we seem to endorse along with being fat and weak. We have become a nation of wimps who hate real men.

So far, there has been no moderation in this thread. Isn't this better when we can speak our minds without being cancelled out by moderators out to protect imaginary victims?

If the shoe fits (y)
Ahahahaha ok tough guy.
Maybe “Sodomy Man“ fits you?
See how it feels?
I dont want to be called names, and dont want to call other people names.
But if youre gonna keep perpetuating, then lets go.

No one said there hasn't been moderation taken on this thread. I only said I didn't do it.

It's got nothing to do with '...protect(ing) imaginary victims' and everything to do with having the integrity and honor to obey the rules you agreed to when you registered.

So we're not talking about things we've talked about over the years. We're talking about people taking those things and turning them into threats and insults. That crosses a line that shouldn't be allowed.
It's great that you guys have known each other for years on this forum and shared personal anecdotes. This make for a great forum, a place to come to chat when the day is done and the tractors are put away. I don't know why one would turn and become unfriendly. Even a woman one marries out of love could become mean down the road. Do in this forum what we do in a marriage situation and let the other party rant. It's only words.

Nope. I'll tell you why. It takes away from the overall happiness of the place. Two people taking over a thread (and I've been guilty of it, too) arguing back and forth, and not just arguing, but flinging the insults... if they were sitting next to you at a restaurant, you'd either tell them to shut up, or you'd get up and leave. You wouldn't just sit there and listen to it.
