Thread style
 

That’s not my name, but good try.:comfort: Go change your tampon, get me a cup of coffee, and start a thread about Bruce, ya beeyotch. :stickpoke

It’s called subtlety, something you don’t often use when posting. I was making sure that my understanding of a phrase was the same as most peoples’ understanding of the phrase. I considered that maybe I was the one who was wrong. My question accomplished a couple of things.
- It reassured me that I had a correct understanding of the phrase.
- I caused someone to go back and re-read the phrase, and acknowledge that the phrase was misread.
- It allowed everyone to save some face.

I think your response probably would have been something like “ I said this to somebody, and they thought I called them a name – what an asshole! Cock!” I didn’t go there. You see it as a veiled stupid assed veiled question. I see it as getting my information in line before making an assertion.

If you had gotten your information in line, maybe you wouldn’t have called my thread stupid assed, and I wouldn’t have to explain it to you as though you were a second-grader. [/Bruce, Radar, Rk, Merc, UG]

PS

is not determining who you make threads about.

cock!

:dedhorse:

I gotcher thread style right here.

i use subtlety all the time, ya thick fingered nose picker. you're just too dim witted to catch it. dim witted to catch it. dim witted to catch it.

You think I'm dim witted?

i was talking about this thread you started about jinx. too subtle for ya?

what are you trying to say, Flint? Lassie fell down the well? She needs our help? lead the way, girl!

No, too vague.

Do you think I should have started a thread titled "Don't trust that asshole Jinx! I PMed her and she blabbed the contents to the general forum. She has no honor"? That's not my style, but do you think that would have been a better way to handle the situation?

Surely the best way to handle the situation is never to say anything in private that you wouldn't also say in public.

If, however, you choose to confide in a dwellar and that dwellar chooses to blow your confidence open...well than you trusted the wrong person. Don't trust them again. It doesn't require a board wide argument about it (imo).

It was the first time anyone had ever betrayed my confidence on line - I learned the hard way. I didn't want to start a board-wide arguement. I wanted to know if betraying a confidence was standard procedure at the Cellar.
