Well, I wasn't specifically talking about Merc, but I get your point Pico.

I think it comes down to the fact that some people have a fundamentally different way of seeing and talking about things. It doesn't make them mean or nasty. It just makes their view different. If all I knew of Merc was what he posts on the forum I'd probably think the same thing as some of you do, but that's not all that he is.

Prior to this revelation for me, I was much harsher in my outlook of others that just seemed to annoy me all the time no matter what they said. Since then I've tried to be more understanding of other people's perspective and in the main it's worked except for one situation which apparently some people still feel the need to punish me for.

It's time to move on. Build bridges etc. What benefit can there be to all this conflict?
