I took down the posts because they were done by people I knew that had a grudge or something like that against me. Enough said. Call me a hypocrite. If you notice, in the guestbook, the conversations I had with the people I knew that were messing with me are still there. The people using the names Rob Base and Rodney were people that I knew but did not reveal themselves to me. At least one of them meant me ill. I kept them up on the site. Even though I have found the people behind them to be the one's messing with me, I left them up. All personal info and all attacks on me personally, and all personal debate, have been taken down. Too bad.

As long as people come to me and honestly debate the site or other topics, then I will leave the posts up. If they want to call me a hypocrite, they had better do it with evidence from the site. The posts calling me a hypocrite I took down becuase I found out that the people doing the posting, at least one or two of them, I had known before and they had a grudge with me. Thus, they had personal motives for attacking me. I will discuss the probably pretention of the site or myself if the debate is legitimate. This is the last time I am going to justify myself.

I even took into account the words of my attackers, and have tried to evaluate the site's content and have actually made some changes where the text, perhaps written hastily by yers trooly, DID indeed sound a bit on the pompous side. So sue me.

And as a matter of fact, one of the guys I used to know DID in fact send me an email and gave me examples of content from the site itself pointing to how I sounded pretentious on the site. And I responded to him and had an good debate with him, albeit a tense one. And I even took his thoughts into consideration and looked over my text and even made some changes. If I came off as pompous, it was not meant as such. I have changed the text that upon review did sound a bit high and mighty. Sorry. I wrote the original text as best I could, but some of it was rushed due to time constraints on my part. I DO have other things to do in life rather than this site. I finally had the time to go over the text again, and tuned things up a bit. But even so, what some considered pompous, I considered idealistic.
