[QUOTE=Bricker] **CarnalK** - what do you like about this board? Anything at all? [/QUOTE] Is old QED the heart and soul of this place? Is my insult to him a stab at it’s very core? Fuck off, you pompous prick. And Fetus, I wasn’t “trolling” you, brainiac. I was flat out insulting you and subtlety would likely have been counterproductive to that end. ---

[QUOTE=CarnalK] Is old QED the heart and soul of this place? Is my insult to him a stab at it’s very core? Fuck off, you pompous prick. [/QUOTE] No, no, you can certainly hate QED without rejecting the heart and soul of this place. But what I asked you is: do you like _anything_ about the SDMB? Anything at all? ---

[QUOTE=CarnalK] \*\* fluiddruid\*\*, you really are the fucking lamest when you try to moderate the BBQ Pit. What the fuck is “bring over that shit” supposed to mean? Changing that one letter in his name is classic petty mockery and you are a complete twit to not realize it’s internet spanning obviousness. [/QUOTE] I mean exactly what I said - keep offboard stuff off this board. Let’s not pretend that more than one poster in this thread hasn’t been bringing offboard-specific content over. If you want to slam members with snark, you know exactly where you can do it. That’s fine, just keep it off our board. If you’d like to discuss the matter further, it’s probably best to take it to PMs. I’m happy to answer questions for those that may not understand the context of this warning, but **CarnalK** , I’m quite sure that you know exactly what I mean. ---

Your warning was a terrible decision, as is your obstinate refusal to recognize same. ---

I’m sorry that you all feel that way, but frankly haven’t seen any counter-argument than CarnalK pleading ignorance (which rings false). If you have more to say than disagreement, I’m happy to hear what you have to say. ---

[/QUOTE] For what little it is worth, I still think of him as Fetus and could easily make the mistake that \*\*Sarahfeena \*\* made.

Hold on, everyone, I’m confused. Is Q.E.D. a person? An actual human being? The posts with Q.E.D. at the top are so ubiquitous that I thought it was part of the software. A Quantum Error Detector or something. To let you know if anything was ever wrong or potentially wrong with your post. Hunh. ---

Actually, its _Quantum Errata Demonstratum_ - I have proven you wrong. Or, maybe not. We won’t know for sure till the cat is dead and the fat lady sings. ---

[QUOTE=fluiddruid] Sure. PM sent. [/QUOTE] Just say it. I swear the inter webs won’t collapse. You’ve brought up a forbidden topic by bringing up a forbidden topic. I sill don’t understand why grownups, who have to face criticism (myself included), can’t talk about stupid things and references not brought up by themselves. By issuing a warning you are validating the connection, not hiding it. ---
