I didn't say you Contributed the original profile, nor did I imply it Hal. You were the original Contributor here, nothing more, nothing less. The title was released in 2002, long before there were Rules or anything else.

But it was a mistake and calling you out publicly by name and then reinforcing it (lyonsden5) was completely and totally unnecessary. Mistakes happen to all of us. I got a chuckle out of it, as i would have if it had been me, along with a whoops. No big deal from where I sit, I didn't feel it was necessary or ever responsible to introduce the actual name here, let alone continue to drive ion it as some seem wont to do. I apologize for even mentioning my amusement, hal, had I not done that then the stalker would have had nothing to say.

I appreciate that. but i still feel that what rick did was wrong. I would not have done it and I ignored that the OP had brought it up because i didn't feel it germaine in any form and still don't. but that is just my opinion, and at least he did defend you as i would too. Like I said mistakes happen and all that needs to happen is for it to be fixed. But, no, I believe what rick did was basically wrong, perhaps wrong is too strong a word, maybe unnecessary is better and despite the defense he was unnecessarily pouring gasoline on a fire. JMO

The fact that you wouldn't have done it, does not mean it was wrong for Rick to do it.  In no way did I perceive his post as having "poured gasoline on a fire".  I perceived it as a friend sticking up for another friend.  Simple as that.

What's with this back and forth, hal. Am I not entitled to my opinion? I did not perceive that it was necessary to do. I didn't feel it a question worthy of answering publicly, there was no need to introduce the user's name, no matter who it was. That is my OPINION and I have even stated that it is my opinion. WTF, I am beginning to see a picture, but I'll wait and see.

Unless I am misreading it, this was the sarcastic post.  Hard to tell because Mark is rarely sarcastic. 

I don't understand this sarcasm word everyone keeps throwing around.

And for Skip, yes, I was being sarcastic. We've ALL shown our bad side from time to time.  Even Ken admitted today that he'd have to ban himself if he got too strict.  But I wasn't honestly suggesting that Rick turn evil!

Where in the name of God did that come from. neither did. You said you have seen rick's bad side and i was agreeing with you.
