Differing opinions

[daisycutter 29,336]

I agree

“I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window, open it, and stick your head out, and yell, ‘I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not going to take this anymore!’”

DC I did put the words in quotation marks to indicate they were not my words, but yes I did not attribute them in an addendum. Gee you are a stickler for the rules on plagiarism. Are you an ex University Lecturer? Anyway have you finished off the bottle of Blue Nun yet celebrating your new found wealth in Borewood

Opinions? I only use facts here! (wink)

[faultydet 7,594]

Name names or you are just as weak.

Lol, guilty conscience BBO?

I actually get what Middy is trying to say. But he does bring the heat on himself at times.

[bing181 8,926]

... the weasels put likes beside each other's posts and are pretty much gutless ...

Yep, that's about how you see the world.

Mirror handy?

[Deestroy All 14,262]

As a newcomer I find that a certain few cowards try to stand over you, it can be confronting but the weasels put likes beside each other's posts and are pretty much gutless, overcoming the first few weeks takes patience but you have to remember the people doing it wouldn't say it to your face!

Confronting? Seriously?

[Fitz Fitzpatrick 886]

Not sure how it could be confronting.

The ones which shout the loudest are well known on here and for the most part are clearly the ones with the least footy knowledge.

One in particular is absolutely clueless about footy and most likely sport in general and I'm sure if he realized how obvious this is to the rest of us then he would dampen his tone a bit.

Confronting, no - mind numbingly boring , yes

[jackaub 1,402]

Could not help myself. No comment, just had to.

Thanks Rev needed that!

You're mad, seriously. I have no intention of giving you an even break, you pathetic little man.

From the moment you started posting, anybody who disagreed with you was subject to abuse. Yes, you were the one abusing others and on a regular basis. I.e. loser, hero, [censored]. It was a heady mixture of paranoia, shite writing and trying to locate other posters to abuse.

You sent me private messages which were meant to be threatening but were the work of a simpleton and truly bizarre. This 'cowards standing over you' horseshite makes me want to vomit as does the 'wouldn't say it to your face' crap you go on with. And I have no doubt whatsoever that you would be as weak as pi55.

What's really odd is that now you mix rambling, vitriolic murmurings with regular comments. If you're on medication, I suggest it's either too much or not enough.

So leave your witless, ' poor me,I'm a victim' garble to your psych, whom I can only assume is on a healthy retainer.

Go Dees.

Well he does mention 'weasels put like besides each others posts' which pretty much describes the history of yours and his posts...so you're right.

In the entire time I've been coming here I've rarely if ever seen a poster more intent on being confrontational from the get go than yourself. Supporting the Dees might feel like a prison sentence, but this place isn't a prison. You don't need to stab someone in the first week to show that you mean business.

The majority of your contributions that I've seen are putting other posters down with little to no substance behind it. I don't know if it is your way of showing that you won't be pushed around, but all you've done is give a very negative portrayal of yourself.

And you have the gall to accuse others of "standing over you" as a newcomer? When you act the way you do, people who don't know you from a bar of soap are less likely to not respond in kind.

Demonland has its faults, but one thing that I've seen improve over time is the manner in which newcomers are accepted. If you aren't feeling welcome, it might be time to reflect on how you are acting.

They might put 'likes' beside each others posts, but that doesn't make their opinion any more valid than yours. “If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.” - John Stuart Mill

Absolutely agree KDD. The problem I have is that he spends his time bagging the views of others then cries wolf.

Congrats on the snipe mate, well done.

Can't even simply agree with a fellow poster these days. Pathetic mate

Ta. How do you think Carlton will go this year?

[picket fence 16,681]

Interestting isn't it,? g smith and I had some interesting convos over the journey and of late Dazzle 36 and I have had some terse words , But I do take a postive in that both posters particularly Dazzle, when I gave myself a 1 month ban were quite happy to engage and dare I say it welcome me back.

I do rate gsmith, Dazzle 36,Chook in perth, Bitters Lime and sour, Earl hood,King dings opinions , and welcome all to a "Soap Box" forum

I suppose what we should be trying to do is express opinion without malice and free from personal attacks, The internet is great but maybe far to easy to make personal cpmments before withdrawing into annonimity ( have I spelt that right)?

I also think that many many on this sight want , need, yearn for our team to experience the "Ultimate success" of a premiership that we become blindsided, frustrated and ultimately angry and lose our perspective!

We will get there and we are working pretty well towards that task!

Go Dees!
