In this post, ArchitectChore decided to be an asshole and slam WV_Woman. What I want to know is, what makes you any better than her? You’re from WV too. Maybe everyone should assume that you are an embarrassment to the state also. Or maybe just to your own family. Or maybe you are just an asshole. I’ll bet that’s it. It’s what I believe about you. I don’t even know you. Just like you don’t know me, or WV_Woman. I don’t know her either, but I don’t think she is an embarrassment to WV or anywhere. In fact, I’d rather know 10 people like her than one like you.
It rather bad form to insult someone in a GQ thread. I suspect it that it is also bad form to insult someone in a thread where they have had no participation at all.
Definitely a cheap shot, but I don’t see the need for this Pit thread. Usually Pit threads require a tad more fire and brimstone to make 'em go. Why do you care, anyway? West Virginia Solidarity or something?
**Slainte: ** Why should that matter? Regardless of any past behaviour by WV_Woman or previous problems between her and ArchitectChore it was uncalled for, certainly out of place and generally unacceptable. Personal insults, barring perhaps incredibly mild ones, have no place outside the pit; especially when they’re completely unrelated to the thread at hand.
OTOH, I do agree with Duck Duck Goose that it’s probably not worth a pitting by you. If WV_Woman chose to she’d certainly be entitled to it, but as it is…
I know where ArchitectChore is coming from. WV_Woman is on my very short list of posters who annoy the shit out of me. Still, I’d never make an unprovoked attack on her like that, much less in GQ. Bad form, indeed.
However, AC already acknowledged he was out of line and apologized five hours before you posted this little rant, fireman.
Still, one bright spot to come from it…
Really? You’re not just saying that to get my hopes up? crossing fingers
While there is much to dislike in WV_Woman, it is decidedly bad form to insult her in threads that have absolutely nothing to do with her, even in the Pit. To say nothing of GQ. However, it is in equally bad form to Pit somebody for something five hours after they have acknowledged their error, apologized for it, and promised not to do it anymore. So my question is, what the fuck is your problem, fireman?
Mmm… Yes and no. WV_Woman certainly used to be annoying, and still is occasionally, but she definitely seems to be improving. That may be because I’m seeing less posts by her recently, but most of those I have seen have been perfectly fine. I’m not saying I’ll shed any tears if she leaves, but certainly she should be given a chance.
I’d missed that ArchitectChore apologised. Bad Fireman. Bad. ::waggles a finger disapprovingly::
I didn’t say that it wasn’t out of line. If you read some of WV_W’s posts though you might have a better idea why ArchitectChore feels like s/he does. Yep, wrong forum and uncalled for.
And ArchitectChore did apologize quickly when called on it.
I don’t see where he apologized for his comment. All I see is that he is sorry for putting it in the wrong forum. I don’t understand why he felt the need to ruin an otherwise well written post with an insultingly stupid comment. And yes, it’s a WV thing.
Oh, I understand why someone might feel like that about WV_Woman, I just don’t think it’s relevant in that context. If he had a problem with her, the appropriate place is the pit (despite her tendency not to read pit threads targetted at her).
