I may get banned for this post, but I really don't care anymore. This place has become somewhere that is no longer fun, but just somewhere filled with strife. I don't need it.
I have shared a lot of knowledge on this forum. Due to you and a few others, that isn't likely to be happening anymore. Blackjack shared a TON of great info on here, and he got ran off. I came on here to share some info, and thereby help others in their struggle with this game. This forum used to have a lot of knowledge shared on here. Now, it is rare to find a post about it. I will say that Dr. Dave has been very good in sharing knowledge overall. However, in the CTE threads, well, basically Dave, you have your head up your arse. Why you have chosen to post on CTE the way you have, when your main goal on here is to share knowledge, is beyond me.
You say you want to set the record straight on CTE, but you don't even know just what it is. Then, wouldn't you be better off to learn what it is before saying something negative about it??
Without exception, those that are ruining the forums by constantly having to chime in on the CTE threads, all have some kind of inferiority problem. They have some sick need to belittle things that they don't know about, and refuse to learn about. Yet, they need the attention, and they can't get it in a positive way, so they resort to being negative. They don't even care that the attention they so crave is that most think they are being an ass. Just so they get the attention.
I brought up the same points last week that Joey has. I'm sick of it. I'm sick of trying to help people, just to have a few constantly chime in and belittle what has been said. Your goal isn't to help people at all, especially Get Me There, who has NEVER contributed anything worthwhile to this forum. Pat has, many times. But in this case, you also are way out of bounds.
This forum needs to get back to helping people in this game. If you don't know what the heck you are talking about, then either ask a question, or shut the heck up! There are many areas that I say a lot about on here. And, there are more areas that I don't say anything because I am just not sure about that area. Others here need to learn to do the same.
By driving off the good posters, this forum becomes less and less of a place that anyone wants to be. Right now, this is the best forum, it's the best because it has no real competition. The competition has been run into the ground by people that act the same way some on here are now acting.
NONE of the problems on here recently have come about from people having a different opinion. There is nothing wrong with that. It has all stemmed from some wanting to have an opinion without knowing what they are even talking about. And, some sick need to want to see CTE fail. I say that, because some posters on here have to constantly chime in, with nothing to say about the topic, other than negative. Yet, they don't have a clue, and have no desire to have a clue what it is. Those people aren't trying to save or benefit the forum or any player. They soley want to sow discord. And, they should be removed from here.
Some of you sound like a bunch of school kid bullies. Then, when others get together to take care of you, you want to start crying about our mob mentality. You want to dish it out, but when it comes back to bite you in the ass, you want to go crying about it. If these conversations where happening in person, and you acted the same way, you would be getting a lesson in how to act with people. But on here, you feel free to be as big an ass as possible. No matter how many or how many times some of you are told, you don't change. That means only one thing, you don't give a flying F. what anyone else really thinks about you, just so they do think about you.
It's not up to me obviously, but if it was, P.J., Duckie, Dr. Dave, Lou, you would all be barred from any CTE threads until you learned something about it. Get Me There, I would just get him there, and not here.
It's totally up to you guys on what kind of forum you want this to be. A number of people have already left, some have looked at it and said they want no part of AZB, and a number of other good posters are seriously considering leaving, myself included. If that's what you guys want, just keep it up. If not, then now is a good time to change how you respond to threads.
I know this hasn't been a "good" response. But, I had to get it off my chest. And, will be my last say on this subject for a while.[/QUote
