In the news
« on: February 17, 2023, 06:46:26 pm »
This is rather interesting.

Well I never, what a surprise!





Whaaaaat? Dave's an anti-masker?



Probably not a single black or aboriginal member either, I should have checked sooner, it all makes sense now, no science here, no intelligent discourse, just intolerance and toxicity. Being insulted by some of the bozos here has actually made my day!

Better lock this thread too, don't want the usual suspects getting all steamed up do we!

I have no idea how many black or aboriginal members are here because I don't care, a person's race is irrelevant and not something anyone is required to share, all are welcome here if they contribute and are respectful of others. Ironically you've been the source of the greatest amount of toxicity than I've seen here in quite a long time. If you think there is no science, no intelligent discourse, just intolerance and toxicity then I have to wonder why you are here? Has it occurred to you to try being friendly and not just complaining constantly? Are you as angry and bitter in real life as you come off as here?

Please do me one small favor and delete my account? I want nothing more to do with the site and is pretend rules.

I'm sorry, I can't do that. I'm not a moderator, I'm just an ordinary member that hangs out here. I think you can delete your own account if that's what you wish to do.

I had originally encouraged the moderators to grant you that favor. But I can also see the appeal of sitting back and watching how long you can resist the urge to submit your next troll post to this forum you want nothing to do with.

Sounds good to me.  Why torture anyone?

Yes I can see how that might intrigue you, small things amuse small minds and all that.

Not cool...
Either edit your post, or go into your account and change the email and password to something you won't remember, if you don't want to be here anymore.

This thread might have been relevant back in 2021, but now, not really?

You sound like someone aiming at the local virtual equivalent of "death by cops".

Why don't you take personal responsibility for actioning your wishes, and simply stop posting here. After all, if you aren't in the pram there's no chance of people thinking you're thrown all your toys out of the pram (c.f. bigfoot22 deleting all his posts).

Oh yes, almost forgot... To ensure future people remember your qualities, the standard technique to thwart bigfoot22's technique is to quote your post thus:

This is rather interesting.

Just stop posting. Your threads will sink into the depths and you will be forgotten within a week.

More drivel from the master knuckle dragger, pretending to be an upstanding member of the community. There's an expression "Don't piss down my neck and tell me it's raining" it refers to people just like you, two faced assholes.

Why should I do what you want me to do? just ban me dickhead, nothing would make me prouder than to be kicked off a toxic forum frequented by a little gang of bigoted knuckle dragging anti maskers like some of the cliquey little bastards here.

The fault is on you guys. Just stop replying. Let the guy boil in his shit. A few echo chambers and he will get bored and will f'k off to his next endeavor.

Unfortunately he used to hijack other threads and spread his infinite wisdom there too.

Hopefully he does not create a new account.

Haha, I had just been wanting to spew my favorite ilk, today, and happened upon THIS sorry state of spew...
...but telling myself "Dave don't like too much, off electronics main topic,...", just because, it's also unprofessional, and, methinks; juvinile / teenage gossipy, and all the other immature content.
Providers worry, about content, not just that OP content is with open hostility.

I had a glance through some of his older posts and many of them did appear to be on topic, displaying technical/engineering knowledge and not particularly unpleasant. I'm always left wondering when something like this happens and a person suddenly starts being extremely angry and antagonistic for no obvious reason. There have been a few others show up in the past that just couldn't seem to get their anger under control and instead took it out on the forum. It's a bit of a mystery to me why he was lashing out, nobody was being particularly mean to him.
