Wow!
Once again I am almost speechless. I guess that makes twice I was misunderstood. Sorry if you took offense to what I wrote or the way I wrote it. Hank seems to have 'got it' ! Sorry if I just call a spade a spade. Perhaps I'm not the wordsmith that I once was. In this thread I see folks writing that they do not care for Facebook; fine I get that, uhh I mean I understand, "get it?" I think those folks can just not use the resource, I mean it's not like anyone is twisting their arms or holding a gun to their heads to log in and post a status update or worse read someone elses. For that I get accused of talking down to folks. I then post that it seems odd that a member who is already engaged in name-calling is the accuser.... yeah whatever. Dude I'm not attacking you, I'm responding to your attack with sincere puzzlement. I'm guilty of not being clear in what I intended my words to mean; perhaps you are too.
Sailor, are you trying to say that you take the time to post a quote of a friend but you do not subscribe to that sentiment? Really! Then why post it? Are you trying to stir the pot? Did we ask what your friends think of FB? I really thought you were withdrawing from this forum...... The fact that I am not whacking this thread and banning folks that are publicly attacking me proves you wrong so drop the conspiracy theories.
If we as a group can not openly discuss our likes and dislikes without quickly degrading into name-calling and bickering perhaps some of us are in the wrong forum. I am sorry that my posts were viewed as taking the thread further in that direction. There was a time that we gave each other the benefit of doubt in this forum. I am truely sorry folks have to guess and then guess wrong the intent and tone of my posts. That said I now see this as a lose/ lose proposition for me; no matter what I do I look like the jerk.
