Thingy,,,,

[MossRoad]

I've never known of an arguement with just one single "hard head" involved. It takes two to tango, so they say. Regardless of right or wrong, Opinion or fact, going toe to toe with someone you consider a "moron", "fool", Idiot", ect, puts you squarely at YOUR percieved level of THEIR inteligence.

I don't agree with you.

I don't agree with you.

Welcome to my level

I don't disagree with you!

BTW, this would make an excellent signature. I hope you don't mind my stealing it for use on another web board?

THINGY is sort of a lightening rod. He's opinionated and stubborn, but for the most part, fundamentally correct in his information. He seems to live in his own world at times. His "people skills" might be subject to review, granted. The thing is, if a person can overlook what faults he percieves in a person like Thingy, they can learn quite a bit, so long as the student hasn't already made up his mind they don't have anything left to learn. People like Thingy have an ability to live "rent free" in other peoples heads. His "ways" irritate some people so much they overlook what he has to share while they're pre-occupied with disagreeing with his manners and attitude.

Listen to what he (or anyone like him) has to say. Take heed to what he says, then adjust that information to your own individual situation. Walk away and don't let him draw you into a battle of wits. NO ONE wins those sort of debates. One or the other, if not BOTH, end up damaging their credability and neither gain anything.

FMJ,
Well said indeed.
This is what I like most ... an understatement to say the least.
His "people skills" might be subject to review, granted.
LOL ... I fell on the floor when I read that.

[MrJimi]

He said he was using Thingy ?
and he did say that he tried to use another name and it got banned, the other name did
and we all know that second names with same IP are not allowed or same email address

 

[MossRoad]

O.K. I have limited abilities, but I am able to look at a few things but not change them. I will bring it to the attention of the proper people and let you know via PM what they find.

 

[MrJimi]

I understand fully, I mod on a couple other forums and I know just what you can see, Thanks for the help
Jim

Doesn't matter. He was an equal opportunity poster/responder,,,,,

Too bad there isn't a way to have yourself automatically added to someone else's 'ignore' list.

Well, I made it as easy as possible for anyone to add me to their "ignore" list. Check my signature...doesn't get any easier than that...been on my sig for quite some time now.

There are several who have already excercised the option
