... You people, and your fulfilling, meaningful occupations.

What? It's not too late for you to become a Rock Star is it?

I'm sure it is. I never learned to play a single musical instrument.

Okay, since you brought it up (and you know who you are....you!) I have the utmost respect for any first responder and member of the military. top of my respect list, honestly.

BUT

I have also known plenty of military members and first responders that I wouldn't spend a second of time with or buy a beer for because of their general attitude. Beer for your general self sacrifice, no beer for being a d bag. I guess you still get a beer, but you'd be drinking it without me. And, honestly, you'd be missing out because I am a really cool dude to drink beer with.

Moral of the story, don't be mean and you will make a new friend.

Well at least you got your good looks to fall back on.

I guess this all hinges on how you define cool. Do you like to get drunk and fight? Would you light your hair on fire and run around in the street? Would you bend a coat hanger into your initials and brand them (backwards) into your rump?

Cool is highly, highly objective subjective.

Cool is highly, highly objective.

I have a fairly high Charisma and can be very convincing, especially after alcohol has been ingested. So, if you like seeing other folks do the things you listed above, then yes, I am a pretty cool dude.

I only used personally witnessed previous experience as a cool barometer.

Is it too much to ask you guys to block each other?

Wait, what? why should I block anybody?

You don't have to but I already blocked him and it made my week of reading much better. But also because it brings the tone of the community back down to friendly levels.

Oh, I thought I said something inappropriate. ;)

I... well.... I have no response.

I'd make a comment about how big of a coward you have to be to ignore someone but continue to run your mouth across multiple threads every time you see they post....but I won't.

I took a look here because I knew this was going to be towards me.

Hey, I was telling him to cool it with insulting you and I have been trying to bury the hatchet, what gives? I want our disagreements to end, why continue it?

Just report it and move on.

Just trying to moderate here and keep the tone civil:

Beatty, I'm gonna call it like I see it and note that you were definitely the instigator here. Mood and Sygnetix were having a back and forth, and you threw it towards the dark side by wondering why he wasn't blocked.

I want on that research team! Seriously that is awesome! Of course my skepticism doesn't allow me to believe everything I read on the Internet but god ****, if that's true that's just amazing. And that's coming from a Nurse who knows that would save tens of thousands of lives a year. Once approved by international organizations so it can be used in countries that truly lack blood banks.

But we still need Blood Donors here too, so please go donate. (Ok, done with my public announcement.)

As someone who recently needed 30+ units of blood products to be here typing today, please donate. I can never donate again (leukemia) but if you can the life you could be an Armada players!

I didn't say why he wasn't blocked I said why didn't either one of them block each other if it was still going to be hot. Intent vs what people read maybe an issue but I will clarify. If two people are going to dislike each other they should block each other. You can still peek at their posts if you wish but mostly you don't see their posts.

So if I came off as attacking one then I'm sorry but I was trying to get both to back off.

My job is precisely why I can't join any clubs to play as much as I would like!

Because I was under the very reasonable impression that you still had me on ignore and am left to assume that part of your fan club informed you of what I said (as intended) so here you are, trying yet again to turn it back on me.

Bright side is, now that we're capable of discussion, you can actually try and bury the hatchet and not just claim that in an attempt to make me look bad.

Sounds like a win/win to me.

I'm not allowed to due to some shots I've had. Would if I could.

Just an FYI, when you ignore/block someone you can still view their posts. It just says you posted something and if you would like to see it. So I doubt anyone informed Beatty you were directing something at him.

That...or the guilty party reveals itself. You do kind of follow him around.

Forgot this was on the Biggs thread. Y'all can keep going, I already said I was done here once. Sorry.
