Gaar, do you realize that many of your own posts, by your standards, could be construed as personal attacks? I'm being perfectly serious. You can't hold others to a standard different from the one to which you hold yourself.
Please show me where I have ever made my "appearance" an Issue here?

Regards,
Gaar

What are you referring to, Gaar? Did you think that someone was insulted here?
Sorry Force, you weren't quick enough...

I saw your post before you edited it.

And now your clever way of putting the Pic up without mentioning the "poster".

So please, don't try your little "I'm innocent" act with me...

Don't you have a GED you need to be studying for?

Regards,
Gaar
I figured you had caught on, Gaar. I was being sarcastic in "playing innocent". By the way, in making reference to the GED in that context, you might be insulting my work ethic, which would be a personal attack. I demand better moderating to prevent such outrages.
Sorry, YOU made your GED an Issue here, and I was merely suggesting that you may need to spend some time studying for it, so you don't have to take it again.

If you don't want something discussed here, you should try not bringing it up.

Regards,
Gaar
No, I'm not in the least offended by your opinions about my education. I'm pointing out to you that you are breaking your own interpretation of the rules. By the above logic, you made yourself a topic by joining this forum (otherwise we could make no references to others as people), so if you don't want to be discussed, don't participate on this forum. I'm not trying to get rid of you. You have intelligent opinions on politics. I'm pointing out that you don't hold yourself to the standard to which you hold others. Furthermore, you seem to misunderstand the site rules to begin with, but I'll let a moderator explain that.

I have no way of knowing what your physical appearance is. I based my link on your manner, which is something that, by default, you present on this forum by posting. I wasn't attempting to imply that you are ugly, if that is what you think.

According to the FORUM RULES, you are free to discuss any Issue or ideal I espouse at your leisure...

You are NOT allowed to discuss ME as an individual however.

Not sure what YOU don't understand about that?

Gaar

When did he make his ability to enforce the rules an issue? The answer is: When he became a moderator. When did you make your posting style and attitude an issue? You guessed it: When you became a poster.

I missed it. But, I guess I figured out what it was. Now, what is it that needs enforcing?

Exactly, and that is why when you "attempt" to bring such a thing up you are crossing over from "discussion" to an insult, no matter how YOU try to portray it.

You are free to discuss any Issue or Ideal I espouse, but not allowed to discuss me as a member of this Forum.

Again, I am not sure what YOU don't understand about this.

Gaar

You just referred to me as an individual (see bold text above)- hence there is no weight to your accusations.

Something about insulting other members you don't get?

That you all allow such things is AGAIN a reason I choose not to financially support this Forum.

The Moderation on this Forum is going to have to become a bit more "Professional" before I myself would feel inclined to support it.

Regards,
Gaar
