posoo 0 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Dear FullContactPoker Users:Earlier today, I posted what I thought was a well-reasoned riddle that might provide my fellow poker aficionados with a few moments of diversion and perhaps a little thought and interesting commentary.Before I knew it, I descended into a whirlwind of vitriol, anger, rage, and insults. I was called a retard, an idiot, and several other unsavory names.While several users came to my defense, it was all for naught, as any cogent arguments centraling around the merits and deficiencies in my riddle were shouted down by acerbic, terse, and generally unsupported arguments about the question at hand, and about my ability to function in society.I do not believe that this sort of behavior is necessary. While some users may be revered for their poker knowledge, they do not have anything to tell us that Sklansky, Harrington, and several others have added to the poker community. More to the point: When was the last time that David Sklanksy called you a "doucheclown" and recommended that you go see a therapist?So, I invite all FCP users to join me as we pledge to treat each other with respect and dignity! There is no need for us to lob extremely hurtful verbal assaults at each other behind the bunker of Internet anonymity. If you disagree with another poster, perhaps a reasoned and calm response would be better suited to the cause.Originally, I intended for the motto for this new way of thinking to be "Stop mindlessly arguing so hurtfully. I still am carefully urging new trends." If we ever decide to go with acronyms, however, that might be a problem. Suggestions for new mottos welcome.I apologize for anything hurtful I may have said in this (and other) posts. Be well,Posoo Link to post Share on other sites

Suited_Up 2 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 It's not our fault your riddle had a major flaw.Not that I flamed anyone, so I guess this isn't quite directed my way, but still. If you can't take the heat, you might as well stay off the internet. Link to post Share on other sites
InsanityCubed 0 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Come ON people, there will always be people who get their jollies by insulting people in forums, and while it's unnecessary, it's not going to stop. Who takes this stuff seriously anyways? If a complete stranger calls me an idiot or says he fscked my mother, I'm not going to lose sleep over it. You're never going to meet most of these people, so why whine about all the pissing contests on here? I really don't think it's going to affect your day to day life.p.s. You're and idiot. Just because. Link to post Share on other sites
fopkins 0 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 It's not our fault your riddle had a major flaw. each player holds the second nuts (there is one and only one hand that can beat the hand they hold).If by "major flaw" you mean that he posted it in a forum where people can't read, than yes.. it had a major flaw.-fop Link to post Share on other sites
jill_idle 0 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 posoo,You are trying to make an appeal to children. Some of them may be able to vote legally, but their behaviour is clearly that of kids in an unmoderated playground. Until the principal comes and hauls them into the office, I wouldn't expect them to change.You might recall the old saying about teaching a pig to sing. Never try it. It wastes your time, and annoys the pig. Link to post Share on other sites

NickG 0 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 The riddle made sense to me , but even if it did have "a flaw", why does this need to engender pages upon pages of such garbage? It doesn't seem to me like the OP is the one who needs to "get laid". Link to post Share on other sites
