I’m asking him to recognize the fact that people have done him a great compliment: they have taken him seriously enough to write well-thought-out replies to his posts. They could simply dismiss him as being an idiot, a kook, a lazy swine, but they don’t. In return, he’s ignored their arguments and flung insults at them. quote:

As has been pointed out several times before, WB preaches Christianity, but is too lazy to show even basic consideration to others. Fortunately, this thread seems to have prompted him to be more careful.

Well, then, dipshit, take your goddam face off the stove. Go talk to someone who doesn’t get you so riled up.

Inor, I see that you are not only a fine gentleman, but also you are an adept logician. To wit: if I have a problem with someone, I should go talk to someone else. And if you have a problem with someone, you should call them a dipshit.

I’m curious: who else do you consider to be a “dipshit” for talking to WildestBill? Is Polycarp a dipshit for his repeated attempts to get WildestBill to act like a Christian? SaxFace? Fenris? If you’re going to call me a “dipshit” for doing what Poly does, then I must say I am quite proud to be a dipshit.

Don’t **even** try to put yourself in the same class as Polycarp, you little classroom christian, you little whiny mother fucker.

So fucking what? what about the other half the board?  
nope, they’re not.

Way to use that old tired ‘don’t read the thread’ argument.

Way to act like me.

in the first place, those aren’t threats- I _will_ buttfuck him up his little bible-study-guide prosylytizer ass if he makes that comparison again, as I will with you if you think he and fen/poly are in the same class. It’s hugely insulting.

In the place of the second, that’s what you do in the pit, when you see something you don’t like. Giving fair warning is hardly out of line.

You don’t like it, getthefuckout.

i explained in that last post how I see it- And if it happens again, I will follow through.

Cut me off if you need to. No hard feelings.

**inor** I’m sorry, I didn’t get the memo where **Polycarp & Fenris** had stated they needed help defending their honor. I \*\*seriously \*\* doubt that either wouldn’t be horrified at the thought of some one threatening physical violence on their behalf.

I don’t even know where the hell he lives- don’t be an ass- it’s clear I mean in the pit.

As to them needing help- I don’t thinkn so either- and I don’t care- I didn’t like the comparison, i like those two, I don’t like him, and I’m gonna whup up on him he mkaes that comparison again.

Lemme clear something up for you, jackass. Before Lynn kicks you the hell out of here.

I’ve met Poly. I would venture to say that Poly is a friend of mine. And I say that he is probably more on BEN’S side than yours. Ben asked questions. Bill has finally answered them. Ben thanked Bill and invited follow-up in GD. You, on the other hand, are making threats to kick Ben’s ass. I’m sure Poly would LOVE that, instead of looking at the Q&A session Ben managed to have.

And hon, making PHYSICAL THREATS is NOT how you handle shit in the Pit. Trust me.

Now then - go away kid. You bother me.

Jeez, this has GOT to be the biggest, most pointless panty-wad I’ve ever seen.

“YOU CAN’T COMPARE YOURSELF TO HIM!!! I WILL DO… STUFF… IF YOU DO!!! I CAN’T _STAND_ YOU COMPARING YOURSELF TO HIM!!!”

Who the hell are you to tell someone who they can and can’t compare themselves to?

**you** are suggesting to **me** that I shouldn’t be an “ass”? Interesting.

And others have a right to their opinion as well. I was suggesting to you, as has **Falcon, Spoofe, Robot Arm** etc, that you should be calming down.

Hell, ask **Fenris & Polycarp** themselves if they appreciate your actions in their name here. I sure wouldn’t.

Once again, for you who are so fucking dumb as to equate a threat in the pit to someone I don’t even know where they live to physical violence, go to hell, or your local vo-tech, take a class on metaphors.

Spoofie- you still mad abuot that last time I kicked your little soft ass? And again gangin when you think you have an easy target? And again with the totally sophmoric humor? Even after i posted to your reply in the rules thread last night spinning off your post, making it a little funnier, to let you know I wasn’t mad anymore?

Well, what can I expect…  
wring- you might have a point there. so I’ll lay off out of respect for them.

And Falcon? I kinda doubt it- Poly seems to be on the side of intelligence, tolerance, and gentle fostering. So, I kinda think he’s maybe no more on Bens side than he is on mine own. He may prove me wrong though.

You haven’t.
