"There's something about the internet that warps our perceptions of one another". Quote by Mark Manson.

In the following link you will observe a computer dude trashing his computer. My perception of a few members here who did the exact same thing when I posted my first trip report.

Sorry, but some are so "intellectually lazy", so true and such a real fact.

Stop with the idiotic thoughts and offensive things. Smile :) Have a nice day.

We should suggest him to move on. This is a place where we discuss/share/learn something about Vegas. Not some place to spread negativity.

I'm not quite sure what the insult was. In some cases I wonder if it even matters. This is one of those times that I'm not proud to be a member here. If there is proof that lion457 is a former member, why is he still here? If there is no proof, why has his poor treatment been allowed? Innocent until proven guilty? He's been baited and goaded since he joined but is too smart to take the bait. Is that what's bothering everyone?

Here are a few nuggets to him and about him.

"Speaking of karma, I feel a slight presence in this thread, one of a psychotic nature, someone hiding, someone with a pridal name".

"Welcome, do you happen to like baccarat"?

"Welcome, do you happen to like baccarat.... I'll bet there's a 79% chance that you do".

"I hope there is no traffic caused by spillage on the GSP".

"I sense a disturbance in the force".

"I, once again, sense a disturbance in the force".

"Isn't there a spill of pig crap that needs mopping up somewhere? Sniff, yup, I can smell it form here. Get cracking, Mr SpillChief".

"Probably on the Garden State Parkway".

"You sure sound familiar. See any highway spills out there today"?

"How do you know whether or not Bob has dogs.....considering you just joined today"?

"Cleanup on the GSP".

"Seriously, highway spills are no joke. I heard a truck full of bull crap split in half and the bull crap artists were up to their armpits in itfor days, cleaning up".

"A lion is an animal, so is a monkey".

"This was one of the worst TRs I've ever read".

"I just wonder why you constantly contradict yourself and are all over the map with your comments. It's almost like you're sitting at home making it all up".

"Take a video of this happening, a picture that proves you are there right now, or some other method of proof. If you don't, tgthooh".

"Very similar to another member. Just ignores posts".

"He can't take a video of an east coast casino from Iowa. You actually have to be there".

"I was hoping he would try to rip a picture from online and then get busted. I guess he isn't in (sic) smart for that".

"Say hi to Tony when you get home".

"We have a mutual friend, Tony. Did you say hi to him when you got back"?

"There's nothing you can say to convince me or others that you are just some new member".

"I'd bet money that he is not a new member".

"I don't find fiction entertaining on this forum, especially when there may be nefarious intentions behind them".

"We should suggest him to move on".

The bulk of these were posted in about a 12 hour period. Problem solved. Suspend the victim. Nothing above could be construed as an insult could it?

It was the "intellectually lazy" comment, alluded to in several threads in various forms this morning. The insult was directed at "a few members".

As I said before, there remains no evidence that lion is anything other than he says he is. The comments 1BB quoted were certainly pointed, but none of them individually rose to the level of a suspend-worthy insult. But the aggregate was why I asked people to back down, as it came perilously close to trolling, and then where could the line be drawn in this event? The number of directed comments was also why lion was given more latitude than some of you might feel was due a new member in the number of comments.

The whole thing needs to simply stop, in all directions.

Nap time. I highly recommend it, though I'm off cookies and milk afterwards. :)

I don't agree that he has been the one to spread negativity.

For the record, if anyone ever calls me an a-hole, I take that as as complement not an insult :-)

What if we just think it? :-) Smiley face. You know I'm just kidding and for the record, I feel the same way.

Bob and Axel are insinuating I am a drug dealer to kids and I lie? Okay not 'personal insults' just ultra derogatory and generally insulting. I have employment in the public sector which I take very seriously and honesty has played a large part of my professional career and I DO NOT sell drugs to anyone or use them. For the record.

Dear Jungle King, tis true that several well established members on this forum were not nice to you when you started posting. They believed that probably you were here to cause trouble, to create some Internet drama. You played into their hand by being not so very nice yourself. And when it was pointed out to you that you were breaking the Forum rules with your number of posts you simply ignored (apparently) that kindly advice. Roar on....., play nice.
