Merc - Wtf?

[Aliantha]

Here's something I just thought of re: Merc and why I think he's a good person.

We've all used the phrase, actions speak louder than words; this is particularly illuminating with regard to my feelings about Merc. He says some really dumb stuff at times, and it honestly makes me upset, but his actions in many other areas far outweigh the petty crap he can sometimes say on this board. So, rather than using the above mentioned phrase to denigrate someone's attempt to fix things with words, I use it to applaud someone for demonstrating through their actions what the real person is all about.

Any light bulbs finally turning on yet?

I didn't think his suggesting I kill myself was petty.

At the risk of making you angry ---- NO.

What sort of actions are we talking about here?

Giving preferred customers perks and goodies and money and gifts? Those kinds of actions? Or did Merc work for Doctors Without Borders or the Red Cross and was too shy to tell us all about it?
