DrRosen DrRosen:
Why don't you regulars just run them off? If all the sane people just group-decided to put all the borderline personalities and nut-cases on ignore, they'd soon get the message and find other haunts for their negativity.
I don't mean to waltz in here and presume to tell y'all how to do things around here, but forum jerks and bullies can't be jerks without others enabling them. I've learned my lesson already and won't acknowledge anything any of them say again.
Why don't we run them off? Because there would not be a CKA without them. Bart probably starts more threads than the rest of us put together. If I am reading the CKA contributor medal section correctly, he is one of two Americans awarded the medal, and the only current one. Of all the Americans to visit this site, he is one of nine to be awarded the cool yank medal. Only three are current. He is a self made man. A well traveled man. He has served his country in combat numerous times. He is willing to fight for Canada. He owns property, and pays taxes in Canada. He makes financial contributions to CKA. He calls people out, and challenges them to make financial contributions to CKA. He puts his money where his mouth is. He is a well respected member of the CKA community. Who are you again?
Martin travels around the world. Martin is a photo buff. One of Martins greatest contributions to this site is a photo gallery of Canadian military gravesites in Europe. I suggest you check it out. Spend some time looking at the endless rows of headstones of brave Canadian men who gave everything so we can bicker on this website today. Martin possesses a wealth of knowledge about Canadian military history. Martin spends considerable time living, and working in Europe. Martin has his finger on the pulse of what is happening in Europe today. He is our go to guy if you will. Once again, who the fuck are you?
You brought all this on yourself. if you had a difference of opinion with Fiddledog on this topic, then you should have made a post to debate his point of view. That's what we do here. We debate. We voice our opinions on subjects. You chose to blindside Fidddledog, and make a personal attack on him. Its a classic tactic of bullies. Your the new guy. You want to fit in. You pick someone on the fringe of our group to attack. You did your homework. You read through some posts, and picked a controversial,outspoken member of our group to attack. To your credit, (and our shame), it worked for you. You have a few people slapping you on the back and congratulating you. How ironic!!! This thread is about some redneck voicing his unfavorable opinion about homosexuals. Everyone wants to get on board the condemnation train for that one. But when someone makes an unprovoked personal attack on one of our own rightwing members.......the silence is deafening. A pretty disgusting display of apathy IMO. Only Martin, Bart, and Thanos came to his defense. Who does Fiddledog offend? He has his views. He voices his opinions. I never see him being rude or insulting to a member of this board. I never see him get a warning for his conduct. I particularly like how certain members of our board (who themselves are on the fringes of society) piled on when the venom was aimed at Martin. You know you are. You are the ones most in need of someone to stand up for you. Your political, and or religious beliefs put you at the lowest rungs of western society. You are at the tip of the spear of all this surveillance that is going on. You are the people most likely to "disappear" when the shit hits the fan. You had bettor hope your fellow citizens are more concerned than you have been. If this would have been an episode of "what would you do?", we would be getting a big fat F!!!
You acted like a bully in this thread. You attacked and insulted one of our members for no reason. When Martin called you on it on your rep points, you attacked him with personal insults. Things you would never say to his face. A classic mark of the internet tough guy. They are all pussies in real life. You went from being a bully to whining about being a victim of bulling yourself. You called Bart a name on his profile that you would never call him to his face. If you did, DrRosen would be needing a Doctor! That's for damn sure! You lack the balls to debate Fiddledog. Martin and Bart take you to task for it on your rep points. You flip out and resort to personal insults (at a very safe distance), now you are on here telling us to ban them!!! That's a laugh. They are at the heart and soul of CKA. You are telling us that your are done responding to them. You are going to put them on ignore? You get a neg rep point, and you throw in the towel. Could you be any more of a lightweight? Seems like you can dish it out (from a distance, or when no one is looking) but you can't take it. I would like to take a vote for a new medal for CKA. Lets call it the lightweight medal, for people who can dish it out, but not take it. I nominate you to be the first recipient.
