This board has only been around for 1 1/4 years. MAD's been around for 4+. What's interesting is that some posters over there have poster numbers in the 9000s. Does that mean that more than 4000 ID's have been banned?

And how many of that 5000 actually post?

You missed it in the other thread.

charity wrote:beastie, I did not mean you were dumb, an idiot or a moron. Good grief, you have your own website! I think you are probably very intelligent. Okay now?

Just to be clear, if I were serious when I told a person I would dumb down or use shorter syllables, that would be insulting. I was not serious.

I didn't miss it, you posted the apology two hours after I posted the above. But I've seen it now and responded.

I think the speed of the board has something to do with it too...why is MDB SOOO slow???

The slowness happens when you submit a post, right?

To avoid that, just click on "The Terrestrial Forum" (or whatever forum you're in) link near the upper-left of the screen. That'll take you back to the forum where you can continue reading and posting while your message waits to get through.

You quoted from the very people whose posts I generally don't read. So, if you missed it before, let me say again that the personal attacks on you have been unwarranted, unkind, and totally inappropriate. And I've seen people like liz defend you here. But don't expect me to defend you from posts I don't read, unless you bring them to my attention.

I must say that insults rarely hurt me, but it does hurt me that runtu apparently doesn't read my posts, either. Am I really that harsh?

I love your posts. Yes, I've seen you get a little irritated with charity, but then she gives as good as she gets, in my opinion.

And I like Schmo too. :)

Hehe... I knew you did. It didn't really hurt (I imagine many people don't read my posts. I don't read everyone. I'm sure everyone has their favorites and their informal ignore list). I was just trying to be ironic. :)

charity, look, I shouldn't have called you a moron. You just write things that make me think, "Holy crap, it's just not possible for a sane person to think that" and my default reaction to seeing that sort of thing is to think, "Well... he/she must be a moron." Obviously, you know how to turn on a computer, and occasionally, you actually impress me with your insights.

So anyway, sorry. I really am trying to be nicer in the forums (for some reason I'm not sure I completely embrace, but there it is).

You just need to be tamed more...I guess you need to come back to the Goddess suite for another session.

Thanks schmo. (And just between us two, there are ideas put forth by SOME posters on this board that I think how in the world can a sane person think that. I will just try to remember your example and use as my mantra "they can turn on a computer and type a sentence, they can turn on a computer and type a sentence. . . .")
