    Indeed. Last time I checked, that is one of the points of a public forum (or at the very least, an outgrowth) -- people comment on posts not directed towards them all the time. I criticized the content while you criticized me. No need to take it so personally, I wasn't making any judgements about you at that point.

    I like everyone, except the people who think "Wow ok...racist" isn't funny. Those people are real whack jobs.

    "Indeed" eh? That means it's on.

    If you are tired of that joke, I don't give a fuck! I see everyone doing that joke and I liked it. I see you didn't make that comment when it was used the 100 times before, I guess mine was the last time you could stand it though right? Or is it you dislike what I post lately?
    You post things that I don't care for or about all the time, and unless I'm going to engage in a debate over it (like gun control), I just move on and try not to be a dick to you.

    Did I make a comment about your lame ass posts like..."I'm so mad because my mommy woke me up in HER house because SHE wanted to watch HER TV in HER living room while I'm trying to sleep until 2 pm because I did a who knows what tournament all night!" Or how about the "How do I make a girl like me?" posts?
    I will from now on, believe me...public forum and all.

    Nothing personal... right Shaw?

    Actually, I've made it multiple times. VRP can attest to that.

    Again -- and it must be difficult for you -- you don't seem to know how to differentiate between personal attacks and attacks on the content of a post.

    HanRam was the right choice. Headley would have cost Lee and other top specs and would have been the only offensive upgrade the Dodgers could have done. Paying HanRam's whole contract allows the Dodgers to get another bat. It was the best option for the best player available at the best time.

    Not difficult at all. I'll make it clear this time, I don't have to differentiate. Who says I do? Ruve? You? I asked you if you wanted to continue and you said "Indeed". Does it bother you I'm attacking you and not the "content of your posts"? Why provoke me then?

    I was having fun and in a good mood messing with my friends that I'll be hanging out with this friday, and then you come in and make a smart ass remark that was completely out of the blue and unnecessary and I didn't like it. I made the point that you are an annoying poster (my opinion of your posts, public forum and all). You then made a sarcastic comment about me...and it goes on from there.

    There is no rules here Shaw, this isn't like PSD. I don't give a fuck about public forums, attacking my content- not me, personal attacks, whatever you're thinking. If you want to attack the contents of my posts, especially the harmless jokes with friends that again, have nothing to do with you then I'm going to attack you and your posts...whatever I can.

    My indeed was actually pointed towards your first question (even if it was meant to be rhetorical), i.e., "I started the shit?"

    If you want to come across as intelligent or having any class at all, then yes differentiating between the two is important. One is impersonal, the other is personal. One is productive, the other isn't.

    Even if there aren't a formal set of rules, the community still creates a set of norms.

    I'm happy with Hanley. Headley would have been great, but he doesn't have the same swag. Could you imagine Headley coming in and doing shit like "I see you?" I don't think so. He's a bit of a bore, like the Padres.

    An example of a productive, meaningful, polite, and intelligent response to my "post's content'.
    LAFord:"Hey I think Rivera should start at 1B against righties too, fuck Loney"
    THINKBLUE:"Nah man, Loney is a better fielder and hits almost as good against them"

    What you did was totally different. You were just being an annoying dickface in my eyes, just butting in with your bitchy comment.
    Oh...my mistake. You still make personal attacks anyway...like the one below.
    I don't give two shits about how people percieve my intelligence here. I know how smart I am and I'm smart enough to be succesful in real life....so fuck it. I'm more than comfortable with these guys here and I'm not here to impress them or especially you. I'd rather come across as unintelligent and having no class than a weak, rude, depressed, naive, know-it-all, punk crybaby, that can't get laid anyway. We all have our jackets we wear I guess.

    Have fun proudly flying the flag of anti-intellectualism, then. I'll just put you on my ignore list, you can do the same to me. I clearly do not like you and will never like you. And you the same.

    C'mon guys, remember the good times. Like that time Holliday got hit in the balls by a classic Loney pop-fly.

    Oh Hell No! I am not ignoring you...that would be intellectual-something you should of done in the first place you hypocrite. "wow, annoying joke" =intellectual?

    Maybe I'm gonna wait patiently until you make one of your stupid little posts about how your friend is fucking the girl you didn't have the balls to ask out again, or how your mom won't let you sleep until dinner time, and blast the shit out of you again.
