I suspect if more of the moderate folk had spoken up, CM might not have been so strong in his subsequent post.

I was under the impression he was a big boy. He didn't need anyone to hold his hand.

He has a long history of fairly well modulated posts.

Used to. He's been losing it lately with his rants about theocracies and being burned at the stake.

Speaking of moderating..... he moderates over at TOS. He knows what it's like from the moderating end of it and he ought to have known better than to mouth off at the site owner.

He has no one to blame for that but himself. I'd bet nobody was holding a gun to his head making him type those words, so you evos can stop trying to blame shift. We're not taking the responsibility because it's not our fault.

As far as provoking, the eovs are in no position to point any fingers. They're not exactly paragons of virtue themselves.

Sorry if I misled you.

I was referring to the behavior I would hope responsible individuals would display.

Coyoteman was the object, not the subject and isn’t here to express an opinion.

The irony here is CM ends up getting a huge Darwin Award for deep-sixing himself on his own thread. Which is a hoot in it's self.

It was obvious that coyoteman had not evolved intelligently enough to understand the complexity of cyber manners that if your a guest on someone else's website who is letting you use their bandwidth for free to opine that you never mouth off to the the site owner on how he should run his site.

EXCELLENT point.

Hint: what would the reaction be at DC if groups of FReepers bragged here about going over there explicitly in order to disrupt, and then came over here to alternately bitch, whine, and moan, and then brag about their bannings by receiving golden "martyr's crown" icons from the Mods here?

Certainly not any of the so-called "open-mindedness"...

Cheers!
