...intentionally or otherwise. I was not aware that my presence here was making this section of nVnews so crappy. Though it was never my intention to do so, I can see how some of my posts have possibly made people less interested in talking here. So, I offer my apologies to those I've offended. It may have been poor choice of words on my part or malicious, immature ranting. It was wrong of me to do.
edit: Apparently my understanding of my, uh, standing was a bit off. Thank you for the kind words from those of you who responded. I'll stick around. My apologies still stand. I'll try not to get so excited about the topics from now on. :)
Bah, I'd rather have insulting people [front-stabbers] than nice people [back-stabbers].
This is a really great point and sums up my thinking when I am very outwardly offensive to people. There are very few people here that do not commit personal attacks regularly but many are not very overt about it. A veiled, subtle insult is still an insult.
I don't see why an apology to that last incident with shrek2 is called for. That guy really did ask a very moronic question.
I absolutely agree with regard to the guy's question and I do not believe his intentions were the least bit pure. It was a flamebait thread and I bit it big time. That's what was wrong with my post. I should have taken the high road and just explained why the question was flawed and been done with it.

I won't be visiting this section of the forums for a while, if ever again. It's been made very clear to me that I'm no longer welcome so please pardon my brief intrusion and carry on with your discussions. Have a good one.
Come on, man...I don't think you're insulting, or the least bit intrusive. Your opinions are welcomed here, and if others have a problem with that, then they are the ones that need to check themselves.

If anything, Ninjaman's posts have been more of reason than inflammatory, even if he is a bit caustic in them.
Oftentimes his posts are more grounded in reality than "the other side" who are obsessed with "humanity" and fanciful "touchy feely let's take care of everyone including criminals" type people. If he leaves, I see allot of value in this forum going away.

your initial posts were a little aggresive but since then you've had some pretty good points and its been fun debating...
hopefully you'll stick round the rest of the forums while you take your break and then rejoin when your energy is replenished :cool:

I have not been here long enough to be insulted.
That said, I was also in the US Navy...mere words can not hurt me. :)

shrek2 is an America-hater and troublemaker.

I don't think you have posted out of malice Ninja, just hot-headedness. I've always found if you make a point calmly people tend to remember it, but if you make the point loudly they remember that you were loud at them...
