Avatar Update

I feel compelled to update my avatar to reflect my true personality - that of a bully.



Yes, apparently I am a brutal, habitual bully to people on this forum. At least that is according to someone called Lancer525. Don't know who this person is but he publicly named me Saturday. Apparently he is the self-appointed moral compasss of our community. Before I was able to respond a moderator closed the thread, pity.



The pertinent post below:

When you have a group of people, not everyone will be on the same page. It's not bullying. There will be disagreements and arguments. Please cite clear example or incidents.

There was a recent incident when a new member asked a question on technique coating parts with CA glue. He was given some very clear, concise answers and his reply was that no one was helping him and the answers were not satisfactory. Many other members gave clear, patient, step by step advice, but the new members responses were more and more rude. Finally he got it thrown back in his face. Frankly, he got what he deserved.

When someone doesn't know something, but tells those that do know they're wrong, well, trouble will ensue.

This is the only newbie problem I can recall. I usually stay away from newbie questions because I'm easily frustrated and generally don't hava an answer anyway.

I've had it out with a few members. One of them told me where the dog (cat) died. I finally got over myself enough to appologize. If someones skin is so thin, they're going to have a tough time making it in the world.

You want me to name names? I can name names. Yours happens to be on the list.



If you think bullying isn't rampant here, you're either completely clueless, or you are blatantly ignoring it. Either way, I don't really care what you want.



I'm not some "clueless newbie" and I can stand up for myself. I read that thread, and was embarrassed to see the vitriol and venom directed at the guy. I also didn't see any clear, step by step instructions. What I saw was a bunch of people getting frustrated that he didn't know what they already knew. I sent him a PM, explained what he was missing, step by step, and he was satisfied. He also told me he wasn't coming back, because there was too much of the "insiders" attitude here.



You want to start a flame war with me? You'd better have an asbestos suit. I won't back down. Pick on someone else, you'll get more satisfaction from it.<<"




From his post, I'm not sure who the real bully is.

Me, bully, I don't think so. Willing to speak my mind and not be afraid of the reverse bullies like Lancer525, definitely.
