Quote: GreasyjohnI think Bacc's remark was sincere, and I think the timing for humor is misplaced.
Well, I am not really up on the situation. I like to think humor is never 'misplaced', but I will oblige and have removed my post.

Yes, you can read about it, if you like, by clicking on "Misquotation" next to his name on the Suspension List.

You appear appreciative of Baccaratfrom79 being misquoted and his acknowledgment that the misquote "wasn't as it appeared." One could deduce that you are expressing these sentiments because you suggested something similar when you misquoted me. Even if in your misquoting of me you had no intent to do harm, you did. Harm is not defined by the "intent" of the offender, but by the damage he causes. Here is a link to my post which emphasizes the harm one can cause by misquoting another.

This thread started because Bacc wanted to acknowledge that the disagreement he had with Axel was a misunderstanding, and that he has no hard feelings. There is great value in that and it is important to this forum. Any posts that followed in which people express their thoughts in a civil way should be appreciated. If this thread doesn't interest you, then don't read it. It obiouusly has value to anyone that contributed to it.

Or the conversation could continue in the thread where axle and bacc got suspended.
Bacc has started 58 threads - that's almost 1 per day.

I think it's good that you expressed your displeasure. It appears you're suggesting that Bacc could have just expressed his opinions in the thread that entailed the discord between himself and Axel instead of starting a new one. The problem with that is that Bacc's acknowledgement would get very little exposure, whereas now "Axel is a good guy:)" is acknowledged in the title of a thread, and the reasons for Bacc thinking that can be found on page one. Axel is a well known member of these forums so this is all okay with me and I can appreciate it.
Regarding Bacc's starting so many threads, I honestly hadn't noticed. But the posts he has made, at least the ones I've read, haven't struck me as offensive or without interest or merit. I can't say that about everyone.
I wrote that it was good of B79 to forgive where he saw an injustice. I still don't see one in my case here, so no forgiveness from me.
It is a bit humorous though - well a lot - that the forum now properly requires all manner of silly subjective preamble and reminder to debate relatively simple matters. What did I do? Created a monster. (Not to mean you, of course.)
Please let us express ourselves freely again. Yes, eg, some words ought to (by definition) remain in the dictionary, so kindly keep or put those back there.

That was the intention but interpretation is what strays/de-rails the context. Kind of what happened in the first place between myself and Axel. And the things you said about acknowledgement and misunderstanding was 100%, thanks.
Value is a funny word sometimes. A coupon for 50% off someplace I don't like to eat and never will has no value to me when to another the value would be great.

So are you saying he could use some lessons from me? Lol
B79 to take his place. Maybe he'll start a thread
I won't read about it.

It's been made clear by B79 that it was a misunderstanding and he created a thread about what a good guy he is. If he's not back in a few days someone should get in touch with him and drag him back.
I'm not going anywhere. I'm not am I upset with anyone or anything at all. It would take way more than some trivial forum nonsense to get under my skin, or to become emotional.Quote: EvenBobI don't think Axel is coming back. But we have

I probably deserved the suspension, if not for that *clears throat* OBVIOUS JOKE, for something else.
It's all good.
I knew I got suspended, so I didn't spend much time looking at the forum, since I couldn't post anyway. I got busy with other things and out of the habit of checking the forum.

As I said "It's all good" I appreciate the apology, I hope you realize I was just needling you.
