garp shouts: bye sweet Tan - wash your stinkin pussy and you won't get that smell next time - a little hygeine goes a long way

Ill leave others to judge you and Diane on this one!

Seems Tanika is a big woman and can take care of her self .

OK, all of you.  Step away from your computers.  Go outside, interact with the real world.  Get some perspective.  In the meantime, allow me to paraphrase this conversation. 

"Waaaaaa!  Somebody I don't know (did/said) something online that I don't like."

Who cares?  Strangers online only have as much power over you as you give them.  Reacting to it gives them more power.  Turning it into yet another childish playground battle gives them even more power.  Ignoring it takes their power away.

I agree with most of this except for the "Strangers" part.  I have gotten to know so many fibbers over the years and none of them are in the "Strangers" category.     For this reason, careless remarks sometime hurt very much.     I am not able to dismiss so easily.

Yes, they do...how did this all start, well...are you sitting comfortably..

Tanika posted something about hunting which garp disagreed with
garp made a comment about it, which tanika and vic found hurtful
Vic gave garp a hard time in the fibs environment over it - and garp fought back - in similar terms to those Vic uses daily.
Vic then gets assorted folk to feel sorry for tanika, and to remove vouches for garp

Is that about it?

Wouldn't fibs be a nicer place if the established players set a higher tone, and didn't throw nasty insults around the whole time - which hurt others, just as you are hurt by some comments.

That's all I am trying to get to. As long as we have a core of foul mouthed, hate spewing long established players, who are condoned and encouraged by all - that is the tone we will have.

Find someone else to kick around Diane.  

[diane]

Bhuwhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !!!  

And there we have it - a mature response, with a commitment to an improved Fibs environment.

Lets  but out all the information here Garp .

This was not a popularity contest ,

You shout to Tanika this  "

That to me was out of line and passed on the shout to people that i know . I am not twisting anyones arm to remove or not to remove anything its is up to them to make the call .

I will say it again Diane.

You can twist this any way you like. Just like i do not sit well with you Garp does not sit well with me .
His  comments in shouts just a few .

#1) Jack pointed out that Amercians deserved 9/11 . i live in new york city and i lost friends in  buildings .
#2) His posting of the  Nazi kicking a jew , as being same as Tanika posting a pictures of a hunt . In my humble opinion  was out of line and repulsive to most my jewish friends in here .
#3) The none stop vile things he shouts to Tanika .

dear you can try as hard as you may to make this about me ........... good luck !!

[garp_02]

May I just make a few points clear, for the benefit, yet again, of Vic and his little posse.

1/ I sympathise with the families and friends of all those who died in 911. I watched in horror as people would rather jump from the windows than face the terror inside.  What I don't agree with, is the murdering by America, and it's 'allies' of innocent civilians in both Iraq and Afghanistan. Whilst I deplore the loss of human life, I have stated that I can sympathise with Al Qaeda's reasons for the attacks.

2/ My Nazi picture was posted in an attempt to show that different people are offended by different things - as I have explained before.

3/ The Tanika episode is closed.

If Victor can't, or won't accept these explanations, I don't really give a flying ****, but I hope that some of the less cerebrally challenged can.

Cheers,

Garp

[vegasvic]

Since that day I've seen you in shouts villifying everything American, the worst being expressing glee over those who died on 9/11. Sorry garp, I find it hard to sympathize.

garp shouts: bye sweet Tan - wash your stinkin pussy and you won't get that smell next time - a little hygeine goes a long way

What part is closed Garp ?

[socksey]

This topic is going nowhere.     I'm closing it now.     Move on to happier things, people.
