Well, "stupid idiot" sounds pretty insultive. Too bad that Garry didn't reached for little report button, he would save us from urmomma's Edip's complex.

Hey - would it help if I reach for that button in Garry's name?

Hey...I didn't know about that button. Always wondered why there's a little icon with an exclaimation mark on it ...

It appears that I can't report myself. What if my post sucked?

In Serbianpsycho's case, his post was purely insulting another member just for the sheer hell of insulting them, thus ergo prompter hoc he is trolling.

Without having read the post you are referring to, I would imagine that urmomma's "stupid idiot" comment was uncouth and uncultured certainly. But probably his opinion to something Garry said about the subject at hand.
A thin difference I suppose, but one has to draw a line somewhere.

Personally I'd love for that sort of childish name-calling to end. Surely we are all adults who can express our disdain for some ignorant individual far better than calling them "stupid idiot" or whatever.

On the other, certain individuals who are no longer with us have certainly earned the sobriquet of "assclown".

It seems to be that your proof-reading has some minor drawbacks.

Stalk? Hm... maybe. And I'll stalk you until you stop being arrogant to other people, spam the board with your divine wisdom or until you get banned becasue of that.

I don't remember that I insulted you somewhere. Infact, I always had best words for you.

TH, I think the comment kNikS is referring to is in the 96L6 thread. urmomma was way out of line in his comments to Garry.

Jmo, ymmv.

Nice try... there's a wide list of comments like "STFU, idiot, you are really stupid etc"... You are neck deep in your own sh!t, kid.

I see the thread you are referring to and it appears to Lunatock has already addressed it earlier today.

Guys, this is the big-boy board. We're not going to jump on every little insult and tit for tat that goes on here. It's a message board. Not a daycare center.

As I've said, if you feel that a member is being an excessive ass, report the post(s). If you have direct, specific questions, please PM the mods.

Otherwise, a thick skin and ignoring the more obviously childish nonsense is definitely a great way to get along here at your friendly neighborhood WAB.

P.S. There is a penalty for excessively whiney use of the Report button. That penalty will be paid in butter cookies or Cheetos, depending on the moderator.

Yes, this is a big-boy board. That's the reason why Garry didn't reported urmomma.

I missed Lunatock's reply... Does it mean that I can freely harass any arrogant dumba$$?

BTW there aren’t too much cute Croatian girls that could be raped here, besides it would hardly be a rape. And only thing that could prevent me from raping anybody here is Serbian police.

And he isn’t posting from Serbia, not even from the same continent.
What do you mean it would hardly be a rape?

Please...do...explain...

True but you made a spelling mistake there.

Well, the "arrogant" and "dumba$$" part would be a highly subjective opinion on your part, don't you think?
And don't forget, that "arrogant dumba$$" or people who are fond of him will probably respond in kind.

So why bother to begin with?

Half the fun is telling an arrogant pr!ck that they are an arrogant pr!ck without them even realizing that you just did it.
