Problem is jokin' doesn't come off the same in text as it does in person. words lack body language and tone. I think that is why smilies came about. .. seriously.Scott X said:I've been saying this since it happened but no one paid attention.
Or, they wanted to start a pissing contest. I joke around w/ people but I guess thats not allowed. Leave it to the uptight PC drones to prohibit fun.
ok, admittedly, I do take things too far, to get a reaction but c'mon,Grizzman said:Problem is jokin' doesn't come off the same in text as it does in person. words lack body language and tone. I think that is why smilies came about. .. seriously.

do I deserve personal attacks because I criticized a story?
you are correct, this game has become old, like moms meatloaf.Grizzman said:seeing the err in your ways (potentially), wouldn't it be best to just drop it? I mean if you did. . . and he did. . . then this whole shit slingin' contest would end. Just a thought.
Not near as addictive though...Grizzman said:It better than coke and late night soap operas.
no, I did NOT break the truce. He continued his actions, I reminded him of his behavior. Oh I see, I should tolerate his hypocrisy?Oscuridad said:There was a truce, I saw you break it. I looked for your proof and found it not.
As someone who had been well disposed toward you in the past I'm asking you to abandon this action.
His writing was not at issue in the fatherhood thread. Nor was yours.Scott X said:no, I did NOT break the truce. He continued his actions, I reminded him of his behavior. Oh I see, I should tolerate his hypocrisy?
Fine, I'll drop it. Rhys, you're the best writer in the universe!
*lighten up, peeps

Well I like you both just fine.Rhys said:I know, Scott keeps saying he's leaving too. I think he's just enjoying the attention his little queen out is getting him.
I joke w/ Rhys and he cant take it. Is that my problem?Oscuridad said:His writing was not at issue in the fatherhood thread. Nor was yours.
You appeared from nowhere and proceeded to be immensely rude.
What actions can he have continued that made this thing necessary?
False praise of his writing both avoids the issue and smacks of insincerity.
I would sooner know why you went there in the first place.

you're still here? I thought you would be writing a revenge story about me by now.Rhys said:I know, Scott keeps saying he's leaving too. I think he's just enjoying the attention his little queen out is getting him.
it was a joke Rhys, get over it. Are you that insecure?Rhys said:You criticized one of my stories...Lately?

btw, he has pm'd me because he is obsessed w/ me. I am betting if I made a thread about me getting married or having a baby, he would bash me.
how about the fact that you're a mediocre writer (at best) who takes himself WAAAAY too seriously? Oh no, it couldn't possibly be that!Rhys said:Odad...I exist. This is the fundamental problem for them on this board. I don't participate in the backstage fun and games any more either and that both worries and pisses them off. I don't have alts, another cause for concern. Because I chose to march to a different drum, I am getting flack, and my online integrity questioned...from people like honeylick who has never spoken but maybe 15 posts to me, if that, in my entire online life. These are people that read parts of things, and then misread them and add their own spin on what I said, or didn't say.
I upset the status quo. Scott is small time though he doesn't realise it. He takes shots at me because he's jealous I guess. I don't really know what the problem is...I don't even really care, because its his problem not mine. I am not surprised that I am getting fired on within the first 48 hours of my reappearing on here.
you are the master of gay fiction. No one else does it betterRhys said:Male pregnancy really is science fiction you know?
Mayhap Lit is bored, and teasing you is interesting.Rhys said:Odad...I exist. This is the fundamental problem for them on this board.

you agree with me, ok. I congratulated Rhys and he went spazz.Oscuridad said:As to Scott, in lieu of evidece to the contrary I have to agree.
And I didn't see whatever happened on the Summery thread. Was it before or after the Fatherhood thread?
The above is meaningless.Scott X said:how about the fact that you're a mediocre writer (at best) who takes himself WAAAAY too seriously? Oh no, it couldn't possibly be that!
You want us to believe you are mature. Act it, then you'll convince us.
I dont know what your problem with me is, other than I criticized your story.
Guess what, people have done the same to other writer, you are not above it. You said I am small time, thats your opinion. I know I am a threat to you.Why? Perhaps because I am a competing author.
Misreading me isn't clever.Scott X said:you agree with me, ok. I congratulated Rhys and he went spazz.
I don't understand the reasoning behind it.
Rhys flips out and its my fault? He is allowed to be nasty and I get crucified? No can do.Oscuridad said:The above is meaningless.
What does his writing (good or bad) have to do with anything? If anyone should not be lecturing someone on mature behavior, that person would be you.
Todays problem was pretty evident to me. Would you like for me to cut and paste it for you?
