I did get the drift of what you were saying, my mastery of the english language is quite good. However, none of what you said disproved any of my statements. Nor down-playing an insult makes it any less of an insult. (Yes, I did see the "I wasn't talking about you" post, to which I respond, then why was it posted in the first place, written as a dialog. If it wasn't "about me" then who was it about Pabs? You seem to have an axe to grind on someone, it sure is hell ain't me since I never did anyhting to you.)

Sorry for poking fun at a typo (apparently, you didn't see the smiley next to it, I guess you "didn't get my drift").

I wish to take you to task on your "un-called for" remark about "personel-racial-ethnic" stero profiling..I don't know where your comming from but you had better get a road map find your way back, that statement has a smoking gun behind it "pal".

---

You made a sweeping statement that is as stupid as the ones I listed "pal". No smoking gun there, but seems again you didn't "get my drift".

How does "negative" mean "have greater knowlege about who what and where than nebbies"? What dictionary do you find that definition? It sure isn't in mine, nor on dictionary.com.

I'm sorry, but calling someone a sore looser, without having even played with them online is an insult. Do *you* get "my drify pal"?

Also, I honestly donot care if people "applaud me" or not. I'm not that type. I put my work out there for people to use or not to use. The problem was that certain individuals whom were too cowardly to reveal thier identity, were harrasing me and my wife when we were online, because they didn't like logscan. *that* is what made me stop any form of developmental work for TM, not because people didn't "applaud me". So I only use my LogScanning system on my servers alone.

And the funny thing is, I honestly am not taking any of this personally. Since I honestly donot care about what Pabs nor you have to say about me. But I *will* defend myself.

Do you "read me loud and clear" Viper-II?

jeepers, LOL, All this because I gave Matrix a reason why I don't want to bring back LogScan. This is just too damn funny.

"I was the Fragmaster for quite some time on Joey's software ranking system.

loooooooong time ago.

But Viper, I believe you and I chatted about this during a game once, and I am your elder, for sure. Only Sailor, to my knowledge, is my senior in terms of elder statesmen playing TM.

And I agree with Rixy, few, if any "kids" playing the game. Nemzad's son, Shadow, is among the few, but he's rarely seen. I'm thinking Paranor's kids may have played occasionally. Or maybe they were Aragon's? Not sure. Long time ago.

Also, I never backed out of any of my statements. Maybe thats why you think its a funny way? You're the one who tried to twist my statements around, even though I was quite clear about how those are "sweepingly stupid statements", on par with saying someone is "negative" just because they're playing longer than you were. And go ahead a write a book on the word 'negative'. I'd love to hear it, since you seem to speak a different version of english than I do. Saying that someone has a negative attitude is an insult. I'd also like to hear why you don't thing calling someone a sore looser is not an insult (regardless of who it was aimed at) as well.

And no, I never took anything "out of context". Pab's message was aimed at me quite clearly. The only one who did the was you, when you tried to make me look like a racist by implication.

"KIDS" another word taken out of context, meaning younger than I as my elders refer to us young guys.! Now if you TM's where born before 08-14-1940 than I'm the kid ok...which I don't mind it at all!

Again in the statement I did pay a compliment that you kids where "bright". "POSTIVE terms, seemed to go by the way side in this forum !

With deep regrets I am very sorry that I insulted you "ADULTS" by using such a derogatory term, one must remember how sensative TM players are....have a good day gentelman and ladies ! NRM {I do hope I don't get any "flack" from those terms !}

I don't know you, nor do you know me, so calling me a "Kid" is just plain rude. Nothing taken out of context there, expecially when your posts were sarcastic, condescending, or both.

You stick complements in the middle of such condescending posts, and you expect me to be greatful? You're out of your mind there chief.

Than one day I wake up to computers and "bang" I can't find any one who remembers punch cards....did I feel out dated!...Till you came a long, what a relief some one knew about "punch cards" OMG how old is this guy "lol" any way I thought.

To track maintance on the "Century Series" USAF aircraft this was no small task, and you knew about this new 66-1 maintance system.....So I figured you to where in the class of "59"...my hats off to you guy..

ps I'm still a kid at heart I still build model airplanes and thank god I grew up in the days of radio..it's a plesure to converse with you Synack

Edit: I guess I should point out that this card would cause the processing of the particular program to come to a screeching halt, and leave the hapless victim (the programmer) to figure out what went wrong.

Five server crashes and one LanRover meltdown later, sprinkled with the doctor hasn't a clue and I see the old well of ire and recrimination still hasn't run dry.

Happy New Year ThetaXi, had to go all the way to the beginning of the post to remember what it was about.

Irascible hope you get enough going to find a willing/honest apprentice who won't steel your clients as an independent (sadly, I've seen it too many times).

Matrix hold what you got, it definitely gets better. It better!

WolfMan hope to see you playing more than one at a time.

Grandma gave me punchcards to play with when I was two; it was easier to clean up than charcoal (been there), sugar (done that) and telephones ('and then I hit him').

Killier many in the community hold your contributions in very high regard or you'd be commenting alone and you are just about the only player in the game I've ever heard Matrix defend so rigorously(sp) and thoughtful (weak sentence but well intentioned). Hope that one day the teflon will return and a change of heart comes with it. Can't apologize for offenses not mine. Wishing you peace is the best I can offer.

6^3 and Sue a deserved thank you; him for coordinating, her for putting up with him.

To LDA may I say, thank you thank you!

To thems as is old, new, young or you, Happy New Year to ya!

Happy New Year Vortex!

Punch cards. I had to use them in High School and College.

For the record (as though anyone gives a crap ), IF a client of mine can be stolen then they should be stolen. Anyone that can't see the sheer genius inherent to my craftsmanship deserves the imitator that they get.
