[QUOTE=C K Dexter Haven] **Omegaman** , you might want to read [The Registration Agreement](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=423183) in full. You might also want to check out [FAQ: Guidelines and Etiquette on the Straight Dope Message Boards](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=384745) and note especially Post #2. Threats of violence against other posters are a violation of the Rules of this board. You are hereby being officially notified to refrain from behavior that we regard as uncivil. [/QUOTE] Yes Sir. It won’t happen again. Just trying to use imagery that might frighten a child , like in a horror picture . ---

[QUOTE=Doctor Who] Please , do not space after you use punctuation . It is very distracting . Why must you do that ? Also , that is all . ETA : nothing in particular , I just wanted to space after the colon as well . [/QUOTE] I really hate to nitpick, since I’m as annoyed as you are by his punctuation…but what he’s doing wrong is inserting a space BEFORE the punctuation , right ? AFTER punctuation,there SHOULD be a space.I think. Sailboat ---

[QUOTE=Omegaman] The bottle didn’t work but save having to deal with the occasional child I keep trying. Jesus knows I’m not perfect but be sure what is said here doesn’t mean a whole bunch in the big picture . Walking the walk, well that’s where the rubber meets the road . [/QUOTE] I don’t think goading people into insulting you so as to become a martyr really counts as ‘walking the walk’ amongst most Christians. When I mentioned symptoms of mental illness in the other thread I was strictly speaking of your belief in the supernatural… Hang in there, brother. ---

I’d hate to be accused of goading someone into behavior which causes them to be banned. This seems to be a good time to take a break from the SDMB. I will be absent for a week, until the morning of Wednesday, June 20th. I think most of us do not like posters who say “This is my last post”; "No, this one is really my last post; “OK - I’m not kidding now, this is it”; “One final point” and so on. Please feel free to mock me as a pompous hypocrite if I return before next Wednesday. To reduce the temptation to make one more final post, after I post this message, I will not be reading any subsequent comments. See you next week. ---

[QUOTE=Omegaman] From you , I’m so insulted. I treated you just as a Lady should be treated. [/QUOTE] I’m not a Lady; in fact, I have no noble title. In any case, your treatment of me is immaterial of my opinion of you as a whole on a personal level. You have been rude to your fellow users and the staff of this board, and flaunt our rules. I hope you can work things out and post within our guidelines, but that will revolve around not going nuts if insulted. Let’s face it, everyone gets insulted if they post enough, particularly those with minority views, and even we Moderators… from time to time. 🙂 ---

[QUOTE=Revenant Threshold] I predict this; half of\*\* Omegaman’s \*\* posts in this thread (well, I suppose “ever”) will be entirely polite, reverential, accepting.
