    I'm not sure..have a look; http://forums.hexus.net/search.php?searchid=551897

    Didnt realise i'd made all 28 posts today...must have got carried away with all the friendly banter that goes on here.

    You need to lighten up...i didnt like someone's tatoo. Who cares? I'm sure he doesn't. It's not like we know each other is it.

    Edit: removed question that might prompt you to take this petty argument further.

    Actually, you'll find a lot of people on here DO know each other. This is a great little community. We don't always agree, in fact, we argue a lot, but very rarely are we disrespectul towards other forum members. So heed this as a word of warning.

    Welcome to the forums, but have a little more respect for others.

    Regardless of who knows who on here...i dont know him, or anyone else on these boards. Which i guess means it wasn't anything personal. I'm a bit beyond attacking strangers on internet forums..thank God.

    And a warning? Well, thanks.

    In future, perhaps you shouldnt jump on people for having an opinion that differs from yours.

    Um to me it looked like he was just pointing out that he didn't agree with your post and didn't want to be associated with it in a quote, which seems a perfectly reasonable request. Telling someone to grow up for a reasonable request is in itself quite childish.

    Ho hum, it's nothing to lose sleep over.

    Changed your mind about leaving it then?

    You weren't agreeing with me. You made a childish, snide remark about somone who made a mistake, which is why I didn't want anyone to think we agreed.

    Go and make some useful, constructive posts on this forum. Help some people. Be a part of this community, instead of behaving like a brat.

    I have no more time for you.

    a brat?! You're too much! Calling someone nieve about doing what the OP did isn't a childish or snide remark, it's fact. He even admitted to being an idiot in his first post.

    You've made something out of absolutely nothing..and have the nerve to call me a brat?

    Without fail there is always a 'character' like you on every forum. Just can't help yourselves.

    Guys, guys, how about we just leave the flaming please.
    OK, so maybe it was a little strange for TeePee to ask you to take your quote off, and maybe humility's not your strong suit, but for heaven's sake, how about you just do it and get on with life. It's not worth it.
