I agree that the spite threads suck. So, ignore those threads. Easy peasy japanesy. Coming in with a "hey yeah, that guy DOES suck. Let's take action" solves nothing.

I'm not just 'trying to help', I'm trying to get rid of them because they annoy the shit out of me and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one.

I'm not sure how many times that I have to state that to you before you understand that it's just that simple, but I guess I'll post it again.

So when you see a problem in you just ignore it rather than take action? I hope that's not how you solve problems.

Oh, I'm an idiot, mock. Please say it over and over again until it sinks into my pretty little head.

I'll say this again: DON'T LOOK AT THE THREADS THAT MAKE YOU SAD.
It's just that simple.
IGNORE THEM. This brings me back to my original question. Who appointed you Grand Poobah of all that is right and good for the Cellar?

we had a vote...did you miss it?

back to you, sir.

Ignoring problems doesn't make them go away. And, fuck, once AGAIN no one appointed me anything, I'm just saying how I think it should be done. If ignoring is working for you (and since we're having this conversation it obviously isn't) then go for it. It doesn't work for me.

You are a quick to judgment one, aren't you?

Another way to put it: I don't get along with a coworker. Instead of learning to work around that, as an adult would do, I will gather as many people together as I can and launch assaults to get rid of that person. Is that how you solve problems? Get rid of them? What happens if your kid errs in his ways? Put them in a home? Dog pees on the carpet, put him to sleep? Anything to take it out of the equation, what a wonderful world it will be.:eyebrow:

I am completely happy. You are making me laugh. This is just a happy debate, eh?

I say we gun them all down! I'm the decider! :lol:

If your co-worker was sexually harassing you and throwing insults at everyone what do you think would happen? Everyone would ignore it?

Kid starts misbehaving? Corrective punishment.

Dog pees? House training.

The slippery slope argument isn't going to be effective here. In most cases and in most situations, problems are solved by corrective action rather than by just letting shit happen.

you two are ruining this argument thread with your agrument, ya know.



it's very hurtful to me

Well just don't start voting to ban people based on popularity, I don't want to leave yet.

"You are a diseeeze. I am da cure." [/stallone]

This is what is great about this place: we're all different and see things in sometimes completely different ways. My argument is effective whether you choose to agree or not. Corrective action? By whom? You? OK, write a report, investigate, schedule a meeting with the boss. Or just decide who belongs and who doesn't. You're apparently more than qualified.

Sorry, LJ! There, there (can't find the headpat smilie)

:)

No, the slippery slope is a bad tool in a debate because it is easily deflected. Exaggerated examples of what could happen are just that -- exaggerated. When did I say I would be deciding? I said put it to a popular vote.

you have the ability to instigate that vote.

sycamore tried it on me once. it was cool. i got SO much attention.

i wish i could find that thread.

Exaggerated notions of what is right and wrong are just that--exaggerated.

Go ahead, get a vote. I think you will find that most Cellarites will not vote to ban an established individual, whether they like said individual or not. With all our faults, arguments, and jeering, we understand that with the good Cellar comes some bad Cellar. But I, for one, appreciate your efforts to clean the place up for us.

we could have a vote in general terms. no specific names mentioned?

you just like him cuz he has a big wang

Who has a big wang? Man, story of my life. Big wangs right in front of me and I miss them. :(

And look, all bickering aside, I just don't think it's right to throw hurtful insults at people on purpose. That's all. I have to go to work anyway so the poll will have to wait for a few hours unless someone else wants to post it.

That said, if Drax and Spex suddenly stop then I don't have a problem with it. I've just seen them say that they would stop before and nothing happened.

Hurtful insults are thrown around here all the time. Hell, I've gotten my share after I behaved like an ass. I don't get why you're so concerned. Are you a sock puppet?

I vote no unless I change my mind.

Well, you're the one with 11 accounts. Get into a heated debate with yerself, and let us watch. :p

boy this thread has not improved yet!

I've been wondering if TW is UG's sock puppet or vice versa. Just wondering.

ZenGum you just broke my worldview....

nah, that wouldn't be logical. and emotional. that's bad, mmkay? and creative too. *shiver*

:lol2:
That was your funniest post yet.

Ooops, sorry. Let me fetch my WorldGlue.

Well my other theory was that it was one poster with severe personality dissociative disorder (split personality).

EDIT I think I've been in the East long enough now ... I'M seeing everything as Yin and Yang, opposites drawn out from the one, and destined to reunite. But I'm very tired.

Zen....you are feeling very sleepy...your eyes are getting very heavy....:) You muussst quit posting...when I count to three you will be asleep and not post until I have snapped my fingers 5 times....
Sleeepy. 1-2-
Let's see if this works...
:)

He certainly needs a sock for his puppet....

I agree.

Oooh, this is gettin' goooood. **grins eeviilly**

you gotta admit.......this part was pretty fucking funny.

Dude, 150+ posts, and you're in the chat room talking about me. Talk about stalking - what would you do if I didn't post? Your life would be empty. You're creeping me out.

IM UNDR YER SKIN KICKN YER NUTZ

teh aforementioned UT:

Oh, wow...what's up, guys? Where's the Kool-Aid?

I saved some for ya, syc.

Is it grape? I really like grape Kool-Aid.

No, its some kind of newfangled grape-cran-blueberry.

Cranberry juice is the work of the devil.




However, completely-fake-jellied-cranberry-"sauce"-from-a-can is awesome.

Mhhuuuhh? What happened? Where am I? Where did everybody go? How did all these posts get here?

Depends on the weather...check back in an hour. :)

OMG that's me in that pic

And I think they're learning LOGO.

Looks like I haven't missed much.

Can you lot let me know when you've figured out the meaning of life please?

Anal sex. It's the meaning of everything.

Aw man...I've been spending way too much time in chat....I read that without looking at who wrote it, and I thought it was LJ. :headshake
