View Full Version : Altering quotes

Going forward, we are asking that members no longer alter any other members quotes, even if it is abundantly clear. Not every person realizes they were altered and not every member is fond of allowing such.
Please, report any posts where this may occur going forward.
Edited to add: Members CAN still shorten another members post, if necessary. Removing of a video so that it doesn't load over and over. Lots of reasons to shorten a post.

I think we're too far gone for that one. When the owner spews filth out of his mouth (or I'm a potty mouth as Perianne says), then it's hard to reign in that one. :( Guilty as charged. :)

You know what I find ironic about this? Only people that need rules need rule changes. Rules are generally the same on most of the boards I have posted on. I just use common sense, even when I go ballistic. I EXPECT to hear about it one way or the other.
I have to agree with FJ on this one (damn that hurts:laugh:). We ARE adults here. If someone here agrees with me about everything, I want to know who you are and how much you cost. If anyone wants turmoil, more than one of us can link you to a few other boards. We all for the most part just learn how to talk to each other, or not.
And I don't know the circumstances behind any of this. I'm responding to the topic. It's a double-edged sword. I say what I want -- you don't get to say what you want. It's a neverending battle. Starts with our President and works its way down.
I doubt Jim changed any rules just for you. My best guess is he read the opinions and made his own decision.

Well, I can 'post' one.
Or, to put it another way, FJ, I can leave YOU to post 'one'. In fact, you keep on doing it, post after post ...
Take a look at the identifier you post. It says 'fj1200', doesn't it ?
OK. Now, look at the single word that appears directly beneath 'fj1200'. What does it say ?
Hint: previously, it said 'Ultimate Thatcherite', and later, 'The One True Thatcherite'.
I take it my point is made.
Going forward, we are asking that members no longer alter any other members quotes, even if it is abundantly clear. Not every person realizes they were altered and not every member is fond of allowing such.

Pay attention. An honest post is coming. Keep your eyes peeled. You might miss it. It's going to be groundbreaking. Earth shattering even. The foundations of your worldview will be shaken to their core. I'm not sure you can handle it. We might have to take the risk. Brace yourself. Are you sitting down?
Really, are you sitting down?
I'm concerned for your safety.
Put on a helmet so your head exploding will be contained for easier cleanup.
You ignore what you don't understand and proves you wrong.

You can at least subscribe to a thread and then you'll be notified of any responses to the threads you post in. But to narrow it down to say, only when someone "quotes" or replies specifically to you - we would be inundated with a few hundred notifications per day! And it would only notify you similar to rep/likes - not email.

That thread is called "the cage", where members go to make sure others don't have their time here interrupted by fighting and similar. It's a no win situation for me, no matter what I would do in such a situation. Pick a side, you lose. Ban from threads, you lose. Board bans, you lose. No matter which direction "I" try to steer things, me and the board lose.
Hence the ignore button, and the steel cage forum. :(

Here's a shortened quote (an extract) from a 'Jim' posting ...
Lots of reasons to shorten a post
The intended meaning of the message hasn't been lost in reproducing it. It means what it says. Shortening, in this example, is not offered for abusive effect.
When you shorten other's posts in quoting them .. can you honestly say the same ? If there are indeed 'lots of reasons to shorten a post', to ABUSE or MISREPRESENT that post isn't included in that.
That, FJ, is trolling behaviour.
Trolls have abusive intent ... and they persist. As you're currently doing.

Will you be persisting with another "Thatcherite" diatribe in the near future? It's a matter of when, not if.
You object to being reminded of your - now former - claim to being a 'Thatcherite' ?
Well, that's OK. I found it objectionable, too.
If your coming to realise how objectionable that was is now realised ... I'd have to conclude that my posting on that point had a worthwhile purpose, and effect.
Feel free to thank me, should you feel so inclined ...

I merely object to your trolling. I'm still a Thatcherite. :) I was hopeful that removing the reference would remove your internal rage.

Thatcherites don't denigrate other Thatcherites. Both your 'Ultimate Thatcherite' and 'One True Thatcherite' claims did exactly that.
I think you removed 'the reference' because even you came to understand that you couldn't credibly continue with them.
