It depends on what the context was. I certainly find your willingness to put the boot into
Grandpa Bobby over some alleged incident on a thread about the death of someone to
be retrospective trolling and morally repugnant. You can mention that if you like.

It is what it is FMF, if i have personal concerns I'll deal with them internally, thanks though
for the offer to discuss them publicly, it was very kind.

Originally posted by robbie carrobiePresumably you are not aware of the mileage Grampy Bobby tried to get out of Mike's death in some smack down posts aimed at another poster. Ponderable said: "Mikelom's death is the course for a lot of postive posts and people are recommending those. A moving moment in the more cynical world of forums!" Grampy Bobby, who was the ONLY RHP poster I can remember who made some cynical posts at the time news of Mike's death reached us, should probably have kept quiet if he didn't want to be told that some people found him to be hypocritical.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieGrampy Bobby did have a way out: he could have apologized for his hypocrisy,
Yes i find it morally repugnant too, we should leave people with a way out not 'left in the lurch', as they say.
Have your own efforts at what you might call "putting the boot in" ever been "morally repugnant"?

Originally posted by FMFand that justifies you putting the boot in FMF? If my own efforts have been morally repugnant then ill deal with it internally and again i thank you for the opportunity to discuss it publicly, its very kind.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieHis hypocrisy was related to the death of a friend. So I criticized him. You should feel no obligation to criticize him too. And you are welcome to disapprove of my decision to do so.
and that justifies you putting the boot in FMF?

Originally posted by robbie carrobieSo you are keen to discuss what you declare to be "morally repugnant" in others' behavior but unwilling to discuss what may or may not be "morally repugnant" in your own behavior. There's a word for that, you know, robbie.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieEvasiveness by you usually indicates your sense of weakening position.
no i have claimed no such thing.
You are talking about forgetting past transgressions which scripturally is always linked to repentance and forgiveness, but you are not willing to apologise for your insults. So if they are insults, why won't you apologise, and if they are not insults then why worry if people "retrospectively" refer to them?

Originally posted by robbie carrobieOf course people change, if someone brings something up from the which the person has changed their mind on, all that have to do is say - 'Actually I've changed my mind on that, and here are the reasons why'. It's not hard.
are you willing to contest that people don't change? If not then my text stands people do change and its immoral to hold them to account for something they said in the past because we all have the ability to change. that I cannot at this moment in time think of an example does not negate it.
Here's some unsolicited advice for you, if you are concerned about retrotrolling I would advise you to follow these steps on this websites forum.
1. Stop lying.
2. Stop making things up.
3. Develop the ability to apologise and admit your mistakes.
4. Refrain from goading, ridiculing, taunting and calling people names.

Name calling and taunting? You seem to have missed them.
What if goading and ridiculing are not done in the right spirit? What if retrotrollin is being done just for fun?
