I love sarcastic and dark humor. The light stuff I'm not so keen on. Typically the best humor is found at someone else's expense.
This comment applies to anyone,including myself. It basically means I find it more interesting then talk of pie > cake or whatever.
I don't give one wit what the gentleman in question has charged for his services or how many noobs have overpaid for said services (caveat emptor and what not). No products or services were offered in this thread, so you couldn't have been protecting any forum members from his wily ways. This is a TG-16 / PCE forum and not a NeoGeo forum
Well,you could have fooled me,but either way I was replying to Kenny,he did directly aim his post at me did he not?
Also,I know you don't care,you prob don't give a shit about anyone getting ripped off by anyone. I on the other hand tend to care. Also,I tend to like most of the members here,so in a sense I am protective. Sorry that bothers you. I know that you are only carrying this argument on just to do so,not in any real attempt to prove any moral of the day,or to try to protect anyone This is a self serving argument for you that you have disguised in you moralities.
I'm not a moderator, but I do have some common sense. Last I checked, you are not a moderator either, yet you seem to believe that it is your duty to dictate proper posting etiquette, as shown below.
You are right,I am not a mod here. And I said PROBABLY,I know you missed that,because in your current rage you have not really read anything I said word for word. Also while this is not law,it tends to be the going way on forums,that when you join you introduce your self,say hi,ect ect. This way people can know who you are. Again,I have already stated,thi sis not law,in the end as I said before,its up to the Mods to decide.
Why do you consistently comment on members join dates and post count? Your opinion is no more valid than a long time lurker's or a new member's (or mine, obviously).
I was not aware I did this constantly,but posting more often does show you like to post in the community more. Less posting = less activity = dead forums. Typically when I post I tend to make it larger ones,not a bunch of short one liners except on maybe a thread like the youtube one. Contrary to you accusing me of being a post whore,I tend to only post on these types of threads.
One of the new members that you told to skedaddle offered some mod. I don't remember what and don't want you to get too excited because I spent too much time looking for an old thread. You thought that this mod was too expensive, yet nobody else was currently offering the same mod for a comparable price. You could have simply stated that the price was too high and moved on, but you chose to attempt to have the new comer impose self-banishment (which sadly seems to have worked).
This mod is still being offered by Dean,actually its not so much a mod as it is a fix. Also,I offered to do it for deans price incase Dean did stop. Even though I don't like Dean,I found it kinda disgusting that the guy specifically used Deans info in a attempt to make money in that manner,and used deans thread to direct attention to his own. Only the gullible would have paid his asking fee.
Explaining that it's cheaper to just do it yourself is rather asinine. Not everybody desires to or has the ability to do their own work (i.e. Jiffy Lubes on every street corner).
Actually the info is there to encourage people to try to do it themselves,to show how easy it is. If people learned how to do their own fixs/mods they would be more proud of the work then if they simply paid to have it done for them. Plus,stressing to try to learn to do things yourself is not asinine.
If Dean,or I,or anyone else who does this type of stuff simply stopped where would all these people be? I do not think anyone here wants to buy Duos and Turbo Express systems over and over again. That would be a tad too expensive. Some people learning to do this stuff on their own keeps that situation from ever occurring and keeps people in the know around to
help,not
profit off other members. As it is there is not too many people out there willing to do this stuff for the NEC systems,as it does not carry a large customer base.
I just don't see the reason to insult another forum member because of their response to my post.
Well its a tad hypocritical for Seldane to cheer you on for saying I'm starting a flame war when he has been guilty of doing the same himself.
Did nobody else see the humor of my original post?
Will it worry you if nobody does???
Is it a crime if a member comments about the quality (or lack thereof) of another member's post? Perhaps Seldane's opinion is worth slightly more than nil to you, or else you wouldn't drag out flame thrower so quickly.
My answer to that is again:
Well its a tad hypocritical for Seldane to cheer you on for saying I'm starting a flame war when he has been guilty of doing the same himself.
It warms the cockles of my heart that you worry about my profile clicking habits, or maybe it only warms the sub-cockles.
Actually it was you worried I might have a habit of doing so,after all you hastly pointed out your join info in a attempt to save me time. Sorry if I gave you any warm feelings, I don't worry one bit about you. You are mistaken or have been mislead into thinking so. You give me no reason to care about you as a member of these forums. However it seems I worry you a great deal,as you still continue to respond to me on here over my reply to Kenny and ccovell and seemed to have been the constant monitor of my postings over a long period of time. It seems I am
litterly your favorite subject of the day. It will be interesting if you carry on this argument about me into tomorrow too.
P.S.- Its also a tad gay you are so focused on me today,even when worshipping Jesus there needs to be limits. I say do it in moderation.
