FennRx Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Unfortunately you can't discuss Politics without Religion' date=' as there are many who base their politics on their religion, and vise-versa. You can't challenge people Religious Beliefs without them taking it personally. Since you can't Challenge someones Political Beliefs without challenging their Intertwined Religious Beliefs, you can't discuss politics without getting personal. Somehow I think this is by design, one good way to keep your Base fighting even when their political position is weak or compromised.[/quote'] hit the nail on the head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I agree with what FennRX said. In most cases he only started some off topic thread, but it was others who posted the obscenities and what-not that followed. Now, I'm sure he knew what would eventually result from his OP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying, MOST of his posts were trolling, and sh¡t stirring... But there is plenty of that left, just not as much. I never took a stand against the guy, just welcoming him back... jeez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't like the guy? Ok, don't talk to him unless it's necesary. You like him? Talk to him. That's all there is to it. Some guys seem to think there was a war in here and there wasn't. And I'm not talking about Neo. Neo is cool too, you can agree with him or not, but he shares his opinions and wisdom when it's needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never had a direct problem with the guy, just saying that to me, he seemed like a sh¡t stirrer. I try to value everyone's opinion and Homz was no different.

FirstMeasure Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 He had a happening band with his Wife, that adds cool points to anyone if you ask me. His debate "style" left a little to be desired. Even though I agreed with much of his politics, I cringed when he would try to make a point. Not necessarily the guy you want arguing for your cause, but he's a real nice guy to chat with, when he wasn't on about something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoConMan Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 p0rbitals! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Oh' date=' Axe.... What a blast from the past! I can't believe he made such a lasting impression. What's it been since he was here, two years? And posted for just a few weeks? Jeez..... You should see him now, married and all.... I don't know if he's been neutered yet, but she's damned sure house broke him! :D/ Made him get rid of all his sh!t from his "single" life. Says he still has his guitars, but I dunno. None of us ever see him outside of work - short leash and all.... [b'](For the record, I work with him and he joined the forum at my urging. Great lead player.)[/b] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
