Hur has spoken, He thinks > Bob is the most useful member in this list. When facts are presented and considered, opinions can change. According to Hur ji, he removed Bob ji from this forum many times. He moderated Bob ji. He started a poll asking member's opinion on what to do with Bob Ji. I thought Bob ji was a pretty good members. However, once I had few personal interactions with him and read more of his interactions with others, my opinion changed and I started seeing him as deranged member who is killing the possibility meaningful discussion with his excessive and unwarranted insults and abuses. > It is his list, not yours.

I consider these objectionable and " off limit " behaviors irrespective of whether I get personally hurt by them or not. I also don't see any need to be beyond getting hurt physically or verbally. So far, I am fine being an 'ordinary human'. Bob jee hasn't hurt me much. But, it is not because I am beyond hurt. It is simply because so far, he has been gross than skillful and efficient. There are some excellent people who managed to hurt me far more without ever having to call me " Asshole " and such. Hope your " meeting " with Bob ji hasn't changed your view dramatically :-) If it has, please let me know. with love, ac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who gets offended? Self-image, self importance does. Those who react to hostile words in the same way they do to hostile acts live in a verbal madhouse where words do break bones. I haven't met Bob. What changed my view of him is that he has changed. Before Bob posted like a lunatic with a machine gun. Now he is surgeon. Well, from time to time, he tries to amputate the wrong leg, but, hey! Surgeon's errors kill more people than serial killers. Bob and surgeons are necessary, or so, Hur thinks. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For one thing, you wouldn't have to be dealing with this shit anymore. For another thing, you could call people " pencil necked geeks, " which would fun. And you could say at the point of death: " I had a great life, something you can't buy. You could spend all the money in the world and not have as much fun as I had. It was a wonderful life. " Now, that's classy. And blassie. - Dan - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
