As I sign off today, I reflect on the things I have said and learned, Today’s lesson is People are clueless the idea of having a totally free forum scares them into a call for rules (banning, deleting & public/private abuse) for real freedom lovers this don’t sit well.
For others being told how to act and discuss issues is comforting, daily posting with no room for error. I sincerely believe it is much like the start of a new country, but with the same old framework. A framework doomed to abuse with each new police officer added to the rooster. People in charge see themselves as ultra fair and honest almost walking on water. But in time absolute power corrupts absolutely. I really hope the site is successful and I’ll contribute the best I can, but as things change they still stay the same.
I have also learned there is a lot of sensitive thin skinned people who feel that if someone pushes a button with the font of smite onto them. They feel as though it was a personal attack. People sure do invest a lot into an online persona as if that makes up who they are, rather than a reflection. These have to be the same type of people who fight a dirty look with an even harder dirty look, as you pass them on the road or in a store. One of the projects if this site has any teaching power would be that in some sort of time, these people evolve to a place where its only what they think of themselves that really matters.
On a really personal note I have been smiling in the fact Skydyke must be ready to hang himself at the blunder created by treating people like livestock. Well truthfully who can blame him when most are, but herding them to a branding stall was just too much. If this community doesn’t accomplish one other thing in history the take down of GIM2 is a crown we share as a group. We’ll you guys more than me since I was perma banned a year ago, Maybe I should have made a sock puppet as to have more in common. Rather than just reading you all for a year. But that really isn’t me that’s what they wanted, the same poster only tame. Or as most have put it “walking on egg shells†GIM was corrupt to the core and needed death. This community is a new start for me also, I pray that all my debates are with thick skinned people who hold no grudges.
I HAVE SPOKEN!!
