The fact that you negatively react to nearly everything he says doesn't really help the situation. The only thing you gain from it is revenge, and according to Ghandi, "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind." |
It's getting to the point where people are overreacting to posts just because he posted them. When really, his posts are quite reasonable.
His post in this thread, for example. I basically start a thread which outs him in the worst way (which wasn't my intent, but now I see that it was the result), and his only retort is a "thanks for the psychoanalysis".
Considering how hard I was leaning on him, that reply showed incredible restraint.
But of course because
he posted it, he even got a little flack for it. In particular Albatross's response (I don't mean to out Albatross, now, I'm just trying to show a point):

3. I'd say you're welcome in an equally sarcastic tone (is that sarcasm?), but I'm not Disch. Why did you have you comment about that? |
Maybe in the back of my mind I wanted to see how he reacted to this thread. If he really was a troll I think he would be in it more trying to defend himself with inane arguments and counter accusations. But I'm not seeing that.
The more I read in this thread, the more it seems like he's settled down, and the rest of us are becoming the trolls. I'm beginning to regret starting this thread.
What do you say, everyone. Can we put this all behind us and play nice now?
