Yes, Sir, true enough by your meager herd popularity standards, not mine.

Submit that the question you might consider asking yourself

in the mirror is... am I, Divegeester, part of the solution?

So what is the point having a thread about something that everyone already knows? The Encyclopaedia of Common Sense can never be written down.
But, apparently, it can be typed in one sentence.

Thanks for the Tom Waits video, though!

You speak of making a decision of ...[text shortened]... lot in common. Both of you impede the free flow of information here. You should know that.

Because the majority comes up with such great ideas for their threads, presumably. If it weren't for GB, most of you would cease to exist, it seems. That, or you'd find some other poor sap to target.

Well I made a decision long time ago about your fate, I decided to allow you to continue merrily on your way.
Unless, of course, you decide to stop him every so often and converse. Like now, for instance. Nothing like a consistent policy, no sir.

I shall continue to do so now, but only because arguing with you is both as boring and futile as arguing with Very Rusty. You two have a lot in common. Both of you impede the free flow of information here. You should know that.

I am sure you must mean discussing as arguing is against the TOS, is it not?

Because you can not seem to win in the discussion, is not GB's fault or mine.

You have the "Friends Group" to pick you up when you fall on your butt. 😉

Do you think it would be a better forum, if everyone thought alike, agreed all the time? I think even you would soon become BORED with that!

[/b][/i]Firstly, hello there. I don't think we've met. I've heard you're some sort of religious nutter, that sounds awfully exciting!

To the matter at hand. I very much doubt that GB needs or wants you to come in on your shiny white horse and attempt to defend him. If anything you're probably embarrassing him.

As to your statement "if it weren't for GB, most of you would cease to exist", that's surely in jest, right? You are aware that most of us have been here a lot longer than GB and we'll continue to exist long after he's gone.

I'm sorry for GB that you consider him a poor sap. I believe I know who you are addressing when you stipulate that he is being "targeted", but I am not one of those people who is "targeting" him.

Thank you for your well written and legible post.

Regards

Who here has really ever met, I wonder? Likely very few.

That about sums me up. The money and effort you put into the research was very well spent.

You are aware that most of us have been here a lot longer than GB and we'll continue to exist long after he's gone.
I am aware that some folks have been here longer, some about the same amount of time, and some have come on board more recently. I am also aware that pretty much the same group of folks who complain about his posts are the ones who will complain about the target of the moment. Perhaps I should have said 'without a target upon which to latch, most of you would cease to exist.'

I'm sorry for GB that you consider him a poor sap.
You've misread my meaning when you met me.

I believe I know who you are addressing when you stipulate that he is being "targeted", but I am not one of those people who is "targeting" him.
Possibly, but the song remains the same. I could easily categorize any number of posters herein, and then continue on a never-ending crusade against their style and/or substance every time they think a thought... or, I could recognize them for what they are and simply adopt a policy of 'live and let live.'

It seems to me, a mature adult would lean toward the latter over the former. Perhaps I am wrong.

Thank you for your well written and legible post.
This is my aim; thank you for noticing.

Freaky
