Seems recently i got caught up with the general attitude of hostility around here as of late, and it was really uncalled for.

For those of you here who did not deserve being on the wrong end of a rant of mine, no excuses, and i do apologize and will avoid doing that in the future. For those few that deserved it ( and you know who you are ), tough noogies, and you will be ignored from here on out to avoid the temptation to contribute to the BS.

Welcome back.

So, did you apply a service pack on yourself, or is this a whole version upgrade?

Or was it cold boot?

More of a cold boot. Staying away was intentional.

( no service packs for an OS as old as mine ... long since out of vendor support )

When Stan was banned it was an odd moment. At first I thought it was great that we finally took some action. He didn't need to be that mean and we didn't need to take it. It's weird that it finally took a direct attack on one of the forum members for people to step up. As long is it wasn't our beloved we were fine with his rage.

But over the last few days I realized that there was no satisfaction in it. Maybe Stan could dish out a months worth of hate in one sentence but over a month we often toss out just as much.

So your comment about stepping back and taking a second look touched a nerve. We can all step back for a moment.

Geeze, I've returned here from sabbaticals before and never gotten any hopping pink ponies. I'm feeling a little hostile right now.

Welcome back Nurb . Hmm... I don't recall being on the receiving end of any hostilities but if I was, did I deserve it?

I had to step away for awhile. Some people like to jerk other's chains. I work real hard at ignoring them.

Well I don't think I was involved at all but...

It takes a big man to apologize and even though I doubt I was among those you were addressing I accept your apology.

OK, Who are you really and what did you do with Nurb? He would never apologize for anything. Or are you really him and just grew a conscience?
