I thought you quit the board in a huff?
Link?

I said I found a new board to post. I have 17k posts here in 10 years. I've had less than 10 in the last few months. In case you don't understand the math, that means I'm not posting here as much as I have in the past. Is the board better for it? Maybe. 

I'm not here to share things to help others. An example would be my thoughts on the coronavirus in mid January. If I was contributing to the board, I would have posted that I moved my money out of the market months ago. 

I drop in from time to time to point out the hypocrisy of the moderation and the idiocies of opinions on things like gun ownership and hoarding ammo. We are living the reasons why we are the country that we are. 

Sorry to disappoint you. I'm still alive and kicking.

Why would I be disappointed? :confused:

I just thought you and Sinn quit about the same time.

"I'm not here to share things to help others"?  

What a disheartening thing to read on this fine messageboard.  What a troubling thing to carry in your heart.

Sorry whatever it was that happened to you from us to make you post something like that.  Sad.

I posted lot's of helpful things on this "fine" message board over the last 10 years. In return, I was told "I should find another board to post on".  Were you disheartened by that comment? I guess not.

So, I've taken that advice and now post helpful things on other fine message boards. You can't have it both ways. Sorry that's hard for you to understand.

No offense but you sound bitter in your responses.  

 
This thread and others have shown me, with the near endless bickering and complaining, that a significant number of FBG's will be spared from the harshest effects of the coronavirus because apparently it doesn't affect children.

 
No offense but you sound bitter in your responses.  
Not at all. I've just adjusted my posting style as asked.

Does everyone who posts on FBG's do so in a helpful manner? I doubt it. 

I'll leave you with another of my wonderful analogies. FBG's and I have had a divorce. Previously we lived in the same house. I now live in a different house, so I no longer do maintenance on the house that FBG's lives in. That was a result of the divorce. 

Some of you and other posters are shared friends. We still see each other on occasion, but some of you have chosen to take FBG's side. So, why would I help you with your home projects? You can't have it both ways.

Understand and that's cool.  As Joe has stated a number of times this place is not for everyone.  I have no idea what your original beef was so I do not know either side.  I just remember you and Sinn saying you are done about the same time.

I guess I just don't understand returning here of you don't feel welcome.  Strange behavior.

1 - Does everyone that posts here feel welcome? Do posters and moderators make everyone feel welcome?

2 - It's not my job to help you understand. 

3 - If you have an issue, perhaps you should find another board. 

As I mentioned, I'm here to follow up on previous conversations. Think of it as saying "I told you so".  It has nothing to do with feeling welcome. Again, 17k posts in 10 years. If people can take jabs at me in my absence, then I can stop in once in a while to point out inaccuracies.

Man, I feel like you need to chill out.  You seem angry and argumentative and revengeful.  Feels like you're here looking for a fight. 

Good luck. I don't want to fight with you. Sorry you're carrying around a pretty big chip.

All that is going on in the world right now and your goal in coming back here is to trash the mods, tell posters, "I told you so" and selectively fact check posts?  I guess we all have different priorities in life.  Best of luck to you.

 
I am not a Trump supporter.  If you haven't seen dozens of generalizations bashing trump supporters recently you are not paying attention.
I have, and there always are, you’re correct.  My point wasn’t refuting that.  Was pointing out it works the other way around here too. All the time.  Each side is busy pointing fingers at the other, same as it ever was.

But in here, it is a small minority.  I might see one or two Trump supporters wander into a thread on any given day.

I am chilled out. Not angry at all. You have an issue with what I'm posting. Not the other way around.

This actually made me chuckle. Have things really changed here with all that is going on in the world? The PSF is still the same. 

As to trashing mods? I'm just pointing out things that I saw coming years ago. It's all truths. Sometimes that hurts.

As to the rest. People shouldn't ask questions they don't want answers to. I haven't posted much in the last few months. As soon as I do, people immediately post "I thought you left, why are you posting?"  What are their priorities? Maybe they are looking for a fight. This is another one of those hypocritical things I like to point out. 

Best of luck to you too. 

 
Here is a sampling from the last couple of days:

McBokonon:  “I'm sure if Obama tweeted during H1N1 that his press conference ratings were better than the Bachelor all of the Trump supporters and enablers here would have been fine with it. They'd probably also be fine with Obama if he bragged about barging in on naked teenage girls, cheated on his wife with a porn star and paid her off so she'd shut up about it, and got banned from operating nonprofits due to being too corrupt.”

mr. roboto:  I haven’t read this thread recently. Is anybody actually defending this administration?.... I mean...#### it. Of course. 

McBokonon:  Good idea to show this broken, pathetic human being accuse health care workers of stealing masks live on TV.

Sammy3469:  “Just a despicable human being impugning health care workers on the front lines like this.  Just disgusting and I’m sure one of his supporters will come in here and parse what he said and say I’m taking this totally out of context.”

Apple Jack:  “And why it is a fool's errand to attempt to have a genuine dialog with hissupporters.”

Chicago Hooligans:  “No matter how many die Trump and his chudsupporters will claim he "saved lives."

sho nuff;  “The issue seems more to be a doctor could cure cancer and Trumpsupporters would be mad if people didn’t give Trump credit for it.”

McBokonon:  “Look man, these are just dumb people. You can't blame Trump just because he's the President of the most powerful nation on the planet and has a gigantic, outsized amount of influence and when he says things, those things get amplified to an immeasurable degree and then people hear those things and subsequently make terrible decisions based on the things the President said and maybe die. That's just bananas.”

Christo:  “Hissupporters #### on people. He doesn't get to "joke" when peoples' lives are on the line.”

I am not sure who this McBokonon guy is.  Signed up in 2005, but only became a prolific poster lately.  Seems to laugh at every post he disagrees with then makes snarky sarcastic comments when he does post.  I think Christo just did it on purpose.  

 
And how many of those were in reply to overgeneralizing the other way?  Because mine certainly was in response to claims that Trump could cure cancer and Trump haters (or some other form of that statement) would not give him credit.

Exactly. A bunch of isolated quotes given without any context is not particularly illustrative of anything.
