But when simple whining turns into defined arguments, serious PM's, and properly placed threads by one (myself) who didnt whine about the limit change.
The limit change didnt bother me, I was rather startled by, and indeed angered by the person who firts brought the topic up and their reasons for doing so, but I respect the final decision and its reasons for being made.

Let me present a similar situation to you. Lets say you get a new toy car. A big, shiny, metal, matchbox car. You put it in your mouth, chip your tooth from chewing on it, then your parents take it away. Your first comment is "You took my car away, your stoopid!". Your second is "You don't know what you're doing, I'm fine to play with my car." Your third is "My tooth really hurts, I need to see a doctor.".
Now, first off, your parents see you being an idiot, and chewing on this metal car. They take it from you for your own good, but you aren't smart enough to realize this yet. When you give up whining about that, you blame them for not understanding the situation. When you give up whining about that, you whine about the real problem. The fact you have hurt yourself, and need true help. At this point, the person who is able to help you has become sick of your whining, and has no interest in even looking at you any longer, and tells you to go sit in your room and play nice.

such a devoted person, who has no problem seperating personal wishes with business responsibilities.
If you have a problem with how I behave why don't we just take it to PM?

Magrus wrote:Your problem is acting like children and not discussing it in the proper manner. You whined about the thread limit, and the demotion of mods who supported you first. Now, everyone thinks you are simply changing what you are whining about when the first, and second things fail to a third thing. At least that is my assumption based on what I would do upon reading your nonsense. Think people.

Heh. I certainly hope you're drunk.

You're not worth it.
@ Tony, trust me, I am. That would be an educated guess btw. Whining in a public forum regarding policy set by the owner when he requests a PM direct to him is being childish. I mean really, do you think those in power here have any respect for the lot of you right now? I'm the board DRUNK and I don't.
You too Darzog?

*smells smoke*
I'm not that concerned about it, I have much respect for a number of "those in power" but I positively can't stand some of them: the one constant? I do not care what any of them think of me, nor you for that matter.

Right, Mag, did you mean that I'm not worth arguing with or my point of view/argument wasn't worth arguing with?

I never chewed on my toys, I had dogs to do that for me. Second, I only complain about pain when it benefits me. Third, unless Im bleeding, vomiting, dying, or am complaining of syptoms of fatal diseases, no doctors. My family has gone through to much medical crap to care about anything thats not too serious anymore.
On topic, we asked for squirt guns but were given cars, to show our appreciation we were decided to destroy the toys, in our haste we made a mistake. But when our parents ignore us and even ridicule us we get angry and run away.
