If your teenage son or daughter is on the internet bullying another claissmate by posting their picture and calling that classmate names or starts a webpage about that student where students can bully that classmate I am sure that your turn off the computer comment will fly over like a lead balloon.

I am not confused at all. I just like both organizations and act accordingly.


WTF does that have to do with anything happening here? Classmates? No wonder you can't figure out what religion you want to be part of...You can't even construct a relevant response to my post...Who is classmates with who? What part of this analogy do blind defenders, like yourself, fit into? You seem to need as much attention as the people you are attempting (and failing) to defend...

Buffalo,

If he were using my screen name as a vehicle to falsely accuse another poster, I would be all over him as soon as I saw it. Cam leveled far more vulgar insults and female slurs at me than anything that ever came out of Schryver's keyboard.

That's probably why Belmont keeps bringing it up and why he posted some of Cam's remarks to me on the Schryver thread that was initiated by MsJack.

Cam's past remarks to me make Schryver's gender related remarks look like a collection of Valentines.

That says something to me. So many here have suggested that nothing else here can compare to the degree of evil that is Schryver collated remarks (which I find quite pathetic on their own).

Sounds pretty bad. What would you say is the worst one? You don't have to dredge up all of them.

Unfortunately, Cam is often very vulgar to Jersey Girl in particular. Why he has targeted her, I don't know. He's been vulgar to other females in the past, as well, but not as consistently as toward Jersey Girl. I thought when he admitted and apologized for his own bad behavior on the Schryver thread that he was trying to turn over a new leaf. However, he has engaged in vulgarity towards Jersey Girl since that apology.

Personally, I agreed with Jack when she stated that what made Will's case unique was his up-and-coming status as a serious apologist. His case is not unique as far as sometimes posters, in general, being vulgar, and sometimes engaging in gender-related vulgarity. That is one of the costs of a fairly low moderated board that is reluctant to ban posters.

You know what, Buff, give me some time to think over whether or not I want to see those remarks reposted.

I don't know if you read me on a fairly regular basis or have an impression of my personality. I have no problem with most forms of profanity. The remarks made to me were vulgar. Now, I am certain that vulgarity is in the eye of the beholder.

Example: Shades has stated many times that the words "crap" and "“F”" are the worst swear words one can use. Where I come from, you hear these words probably every place except church. :-) So, they don't bother me much.

When I see male posters resort to gender related slurs as a main form of response, I simply categorize them as anti-intellectual low life's and in the case of Cam, I put him on ignore a long time ago and only recently took him off to engage him regarding his attacks against Droopy.

I don't know if Belmont is going to repost the remarks or not. I have no contact with him in that regard. But, let me think about whether or not I, personally, want to make specific reference to them or not.

Look, it isn't my place. Jersey Girl has asked me before to "drop it" and, other than mentioning it in this thread, that is what I intend to do. I personally think Jersey Girl should create an MSJack-style thread about CamNC4Me, because other than the poster "Joseph," I cannot think of another whom I dislike more than CamNC4Me, and I think such a thread would be well deserved.

In a more general sense, when CamNC4Me posted as antishock8, the majority of his posts included the most vulgar words and the most misogynistic sentiments. Searching through that filth, however, is a take that could take many weeks. I invite you to use the "search" feature, and under member name enter antishock8.

I won't Jersey Girl. You asked me to drop it and I want to honor that request (although I thought I should being it up briefly here). I do think you should start an MSJack style thread about Cam, though.

If you were more well familiar with my personality, you would know why I haven't created that sort of thread, Belmont.

Test question: Why do you think Jersey Girl hasn't created a thread documenting Cam's vulgar remarks?

What, it's not multiple choice? :)


I think it is because you think those comments stand on their own as a monument to CamNC4Me's vulgarity and stupidity. I believe you think he has damned himself, and there is probably no reason for you to bring to light things that everyone already knows.

I think also that you believe that calling attention to such remarks gives CamNC4Me undue attention of which he is wholly undeserving.

Am I close?
