Secret Squirrel Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I appear to be a Newbie but am not. I just feel the need to be double secret anonymous for this one. Anyway, in my view, the only way to get rid of these two jokers is not to reply to their postings. It won't be nearly as much fun for them. We all love our Far Eastern made Epis and that's why we're here. Why let people who don't like 'em spoil our enjoyment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brad1 Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 If they provoke you, that's your fault, not theirs! You decide how you react. They don't do that for you. I don't believe in censoring anybody at all. If you don't want to respond to them, then don't. Why is it that you feel you have to encourage others here to do such a thing?????:- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Strum Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 See my last post here http://forums.epiphone.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=6698&p=8 I voted to continue to allow them to provoke me, but they don't. They just don't bother me. Knowledgeable people that just have a hard time communicating it, but I find it harmless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron G Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I think Squirrel left out a third category - "Not That Easily Intimidated", so I voted to "allow". Squirrel also didn't explain his own feelings about the posts. And why does he feel the need to be "double secret anonymous"? Trying to suppress other members is just plain wrong.

At the moment the forum is totally dominated by their postings. Now I don't mind people posting a lot- and I'm not one of the big regulars BTW. However, 90% plus of these two characters' postings involve personal attacks and insults directed at people who seem perfectly nice to me. It really is spoiling the board.

JefferySmith Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 My concern is that we *****ed incessantly about the moderators deleting threads, encroaching on our freedom of speech. And then when they stop deleting threads, fights break out all over. I've bristled over other people's criticism of me (but I'm much better now, thank you). If someone says something that provokes you, get up, walk away from the computer, and take the dog for a walk. If you ignore a provoker (is that a word?) then they have a chip on their shoulder with nobody to knock it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midiman56 Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Ahhh ... they're just trying to keep things lively in here! Really, we are all big boys (and possibly some girls, too). As I said in an earlier post, lack of attention is the best medicine for folks who wish to live in Trollville. I would never want to see less thought-provoking (read: argument inducing) subjects in this forum. They are what keeps me coming back for more. Its just a pity that some of us can't refrain from flinging crap at others along with their opinions. MIDI (I voted to let 'em rant on!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wardog Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 secret squirrel has a point. Wait, isn't that one of the functions for this forum. Sorry, ss. you not playing fair!!!! Yes, the latest post have ingnited the need for Marx and Nelson to express themselves. And, yes it has dominated most posts with direct attacks on members. But, they have a right to their point--opinion. If, what the say is harsh, fight back or leave it be. your choice. Hell, at times we need some llively expression or the forum would be just another outlet of mediocre dribble. I really love guitars and Epi's are at the top of my list. Thus, why i like this forum. I like it more for the folks who cintribute their knowledge and experience. As, a beginning guitarist, I use this forum more for those contributions. And, it is easy to be mis-informed. WE need members like Marx and Nelson as much as we need members like you. So, deal how you wish, but no censorship!!!!!!!!:- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
