First thing, I was/am leading by example in not replying to you anymore. I'm making an exception since this will be the last time I need to, one way or another.

Which I'm afraid is the whole problem. At least in your post you have cited all the roots of this problem. Believe it or not, I don't come on this board so I can tune into the "KillSwitch Engage Show". However this is what the board has become, so I am sad to say that I won't miss it if Phil deems to close it down and I'm not greatly surprised that it has come to him considering this.

> Why? Just because. That's how I am.

Not good enough.

Yes, as you put it you do take a lot of shit too. There are some of us that are more veracious than others at scratching an itch, but in the end you have got what you've given. Ask anyone what the board was like before you started using it. To put it plainly, it wasn't this nasty. So this is where you making provocations and arguments for the sake of it has taken us. As a side note, Carlos never got a bad word said against him when he was just stating opinions, I actually had some respect for him, he seemed pretty together as far as I could tell. It is just recently he's decided he doesn't like me and again, gets what he gives.

As for meeting you in real life, it won't happen with me for a long time, not for any personal reasons. I'm currently sat here at home with the pleasures of pernicious anemia, which is leaving me extremely fatigued and with aching skin and joints. I'm lucky if I get out of the house once a week, hence that precious little time is spent on essential errands.

You have no interest in changing your ways, you've said as much (not implynig you should), and it will always provoke bad feeling and never the twain shall meet. So here's a thought, why don't you set up your own forum? This way people can log in if they really like you and/or want a deeply fustrating and pointless argument, and this board can be left for people that go to Spiders (which is convenient since it's on a website about Spiders, not you). You never know, if any of the people on here are in a particularly bad mood they may come across and to yours for a bit of sparring. I really think it's a case of doing the above or us having zero forums, if we stay like we are, you'll keep pushing, and we'll keep pushing back, not particularly getting anywhere.

As a final point; if you and Phil are right, that we'd all get along if we met in real life then I'm assuming that there's some difference between the face2face you and the online you, given that we don't get along with the online you. Why couldn't you try being yourself on here?
