Listen guys, and this is mainly addressed at the username Light and now Goatboy, I don't know what your problem is with me. I don't see where I've offended you to bring about this, the only factor I can see is that I'm new.

If I'd flamed people, spammed the forum, then fair enough I'd expect hostility, but I haven't, and won't.

If you have a problem then just come right out and say it here, or shut up. In Light's case, he/she is a normal user, but whoever Goatboy is, he/she is a notable.

Last time I saw the definition of that in one of Special Reserve's magazines it was someone who added something special to the forum, who was generally friendly. I've not chatted with any other notables on the forum, but I've seen them post, and they are not like Goatboy. If they were, then I think these forums would be even less appealing than they are.

One of the thing's I liked about these forums when I was just reading them, not posting - this was before I signed up - was that it had areas other than games to talk about. It does, but they seem mostly full of people arguing over generally stupid things.

I'm not going to spend time addressing the stupidity of a few on this forum who seem to have a problem with me posting here, there are a hell of a lot better forums with people who don't seem so hostile to new members. It may only be a minority doing this, but it's a minority I can live without, and that the rest of you should address also, otherwise you won't have anyone bother anymore.

I'm off to pastures new, and I hope you have fun with this Belldandy guy 'cause it's cost you someone who genuinaly wanted to discuss decent topics here, where as he, from what I've read on here this morning, seems more concerned with winding several of you up.

I would say nice knowing you, but I'll adjust to nice knowing some of you.

It's the fact you're actually denying it *and* posting replies to yourself that makes me realise just how fantastically chidlike your insistence runs deep.
Man, no wonder arguing war stuff with you is so pointless.

*this next bit is just for Bell*
Dude, the fact that you know I'm right and yet you still persist proves why you'll always lose at debating - because you lack the grace or intelligence to quietly let something sink.

So I'll continue to spank you in front of everyone until all your dignity has vanished along with those WOMD you so badly defended.

Dude there are plenty of people on these forums that I don't get along with too well, some I hate and some I want to beat repeatedly with a cricket bat. But be yourself and people will grow to accept you. A small proportion of people like to 'feel big' by intimidating newbies. Just ignore them and maybe find where they live and lob old boots through their windows. Just chill mate and it'll sort itself out.

Thanks, nice to see there's some normal people on this forum.

Actually I've come to the conclusion that just going because of a small minority of users is rather childish, and pretty pointless as those which felt the need to associate me with someone else will just continue to be here anyway.

The best way to frustrate them is not to leave - so if you two want to continue to have a problem with me then go ahead, try your hardest. I'd suggest that you take your frustration out on the correct person though, for a couple of people so concerned with various social issues etc you seem quite full of the very thing which causes them - hatred. So much effort into this one person on here, and all you seem to do is wind he/she up more. Talk about ego feeding.......

Blank - I didn't mean you by the way, I didn't agree with you but last time I checked there was nothing wrong with people not agreeing on something as long as they do it without resorting to name calling and verbal abuse - everyone knows that the first person to start that in a disagreement is usually the one who is unable to explain their position so seeks to deflect attention.

Hmm. I'm with HF on this one.

Whoever he is/was/isn't, he posted well, regardless of whether or not you agreed with him, and I don't remember him ever seeming like an arsh hole.

Ah well. Bye dude.

Ha ha brilliance, you end up getting rid of someone whose ambition is not just to see how much they can wind certain people up, and leave behind me, oh this forum just gets more better by the day...
