I guess I'll stop replying for a while because this has turned into a flame war and I don't play well with fire, I really don't.

However, I do have to comment because some things just don't work well.

I asked for confirmation in posts before the one you quoted and I, to use your words, "attacked" your writing style because you didn't write anything of substance to, "attack", which I explained clearly.

Rather then say I should reply to Jetrell though PM, I think Jetrell should have replied to me via PM first. But you don't freely give that because even though you say you 're neutral, I don't think you really are.

Lastly, I get what you mean, however I never said this was a private conversation, and you had no right or reason to interject or reply. What I said was something rather different, but I don't think you care enough. So that's that.

And I like how you didn't even address the fact that Jetrell ridiculed and chided me for asking for confirmation, and then you suggested I ask for confirmation again. It's like you just want me to say things you can ridicule and chide me over.

All in all, I already said what you suggested someone say with thick skin should have said. And after I said the statement that someone with thick skin should have said is when Jetrell stated to ridicule and chide me.

Yes, I know because I copied the first line of my suggested post from your first reply to Jetrell. My issue is that you also needlessly said the following:

I don't understand what you're saying and I don't understand what you have an issue or problem with.

Maybe you're just having a bad day, but why take it out on me? I want to go through most of the points you made to show why I don't understand and that perhaps my view is just as valid as yours. But time is precious and I don't play well with fire.

Also, you're not coming off mean, just non-sensical and somewhat manic. Seriously and sheesh!

WTF? There was no need for this. I don't agree with Jetrell, but for someone who claims to not play with fire you did a real bang-up job at making sure Jetrell would reply to you.

A person who minds their own wouldn't take the time to interject silly sarcasm or ironic idiosyncrasies in a conversation they weren't a part of and if they did interject they would do so with words (intelligent speech) that could be responded to rather than silly sarcasm or ironic idiosyncrasies. I knew to expect this kind of response from some people here, but not you. Wow.

This isn't a private conservation. You're on a WWW forum. If you didn't want people to interject, then your first reply to Jetrell should have been a PM.

I'm sure you understood what I wrote in previous posts well enough to write a point-by-point reply. Yes, I use silly sarcasm and ironic idiosyncrasies. So what? Attacking my writing style rather than my message says a whole lot more about you than my writing style does about me. Plus, you damn well know you're skating along the ad hominem border here. Watch your step!

Lastly, perhaps I'm wrong, but I don't think you're the expert on what people with thick-skin should or should not say, nor do I think there are expert on anything related. But hey, I could be wrong.

No, but I never claimed to be. I suggested what I thought a thick-skinned person should have written in reply to Jetrell. What the fuck does my lack of expertise in skin thickness have to do with my post? One does need not be an expert in something to mention it in conversation. I don't (and shouldn't need to!) ask people to show me their degree in CS when they want to suggest some way for me to improve an algorithm I'm working on.

Very sincerely not-butthurtedly yours,
