it doesn't bother me at all that you feel that way..because my moderating is kept to moderating the rules.and there are no rules against civil discussions...and i have not moderated this thread yet at all.i am merely speaking as a member of the forum.if you can't see that,or the need for someone to originally speak out against a misleading auction,then your opinion means nothing to me.
the thread is now starting to become less civil.
lesmortestant and luke r.you need to keep the discussion leaned more towards a debate(even if it is slightly heated),and less towards an all out flame war.
lesmortdansant.you misunderstand me now.you are reading anger into my last few posts when there is none now that you have done the right thing.all i have been doing in the last few posts is explaining to you the reason for my first post,and i still feel perfectly jusitified in voicing my opinion the way i did.
mkg bass.debates,even heated ones,will always be allowed by me,from anyone,as long as the intent is clearly constructive.not everyone feels it necessary to take the side of every guilty party on the forum the way you do.you consistently jump in to say "shame on you" to anyone who disagrees with anyone else.
well shame on you for not knowing when it is appropriate to make a stand.and for not knowing the meaning of hypocrisy or what it means to patronize.
anyway...lesmortdansant.if it is still not clear,i apologize for not making my last few posts more clear...to be quite clear,i believe you now have done the right thing.i do not apologize for my first post .as i said before,it was justified.
all i can say if you still do not understand is that i hope the next time someone does something YOU clearly percieve as wrong,and you have to jump in and speak your mind,that you will remember this discussion and will realize that just because we all make mistakes does not mean we don't deserve to be called out when we make that mistake.it happens to everyone,and when you do get called out,rather than lashing out,just admit your mistake,rectify it as best you can,and move on.
