But the over-sensitive brigade are annoying me. Reading PEEL since the Sarge-Danny thing is increasingly like watching a drunk try to start a fight for the sake of it. Sarge was clearly joking, and bringing the fight into two other threads (by my count) is just low. I think Fred and static should butt out. If Danny's upset, let him handle it and don't turn the whole board into a fight, let it stay between two people so the rest of us can ignore it.
So, I don't think the community is dying, I don't think it ever will, but I do think it's getting up my nose. To one that does not know Sarge, it wasnt clear at all. it definately gave ME the impression that he was insulting people (and me), pardon me for having a problem with that. If you try to get into a community and then somebody in there writes something that you find offensive/insulting, how would you react? a peaceful nod, thinking that "this is probably how it works here". Or ask "why did you write that" like i did and unfortunately become a target yourself. personally, i think that tolerance should be extended in both directions here.

Just send some rounds for the Ak-47. The money is in the dumpster, as per our usual arrangement.

Fair point about the here/hear.
As for me being involved in a lot of flaming:
*totalnerduk has a grudge against me because I inadvertantly caused one of his threads to be closed.
*Ben hates me because I dare to voice opinions different to his own.
*Sarge came on to PEEL last night with a bug up his arse, he said some pretty nasty stuff to stat, Danny and Juliet, and since all three of them are friends of mine, I came in on their side.
*I admit I went over the top with bartman and his many alter-egos. No, I hate you because you post things like this. You have no right to tell people who have been part of this community for much, much longer than you how to go about their business when everyone else outside you and Static is fine with it. I don't think it's necessary for any of us to tell you how to act on the board, but please take this advice on board. Both you and Static have both asked how were you to know that sarge was joking. Well maybe if you pulled your head in and took some time to learn how things operate, then things like that may become a bit clearer to you both. PEEL like Sarge, they like him more than you. if we had to choose between you and Sarge, 95% of PEEL would pick Sarge. Of course, it would never, ever come down to choosing between two posters, but just keep that in mind. You're not winning any friends by continuing with this childish vendetta of yours and being quite new, first impressions last. So cut it out and try and fit in a bit better.

Sarge made a very ugly comment to static, one that was certain to offend him. If Sarge had paid any attention to any of static's previous posts, he should have known not to make such a stupid comment. Sarge also made comments to Danny and Juliet that were certain to offend them. He may have made them in jest, but when the same joke gets told over and over again, it wears thin. Danny and Juliet are starting to get very, very annoyed with people continually badgering them about their relationship, and I can't say I blame them, as no one on PEEL seems to know when to stop. As for me being unpopular, Zed 85, Archie2K, Danny, Juliet, stat and BrainSluggo haven't had any problems with me, and Total and I have sorted out that "Postamania" thing now. Like I've said a million times, I'm not here looking for arguments, but I'm getting tired of the same people getting on my case over and over again.

You think it's getting annoying? Welcome to the club. Think up an interesting ancronym for it and you may get a custom rank Not realising it was a joke is OK, I don't dispute that, I've often not realised things were a joke. What irks me is the fact that two people with nothing to do with the incident not only got involved and contributed to a flame war, but also brought the argument in two threads other than the one it was in originally. I'm hereby dropping this, unless I find you guys have said something else. But bear in mind that if two people are fighting, it's their business, not yours.

In answering to the thread's topic: I believe I'm part of Futurama fan community online I'm alive The community is alive If one day I'll die I'll open a new thread on PEEL to report my death to the community, asking if someone wants to write a Futurama based fanfiction on this event

If you get so god damn sensitive about a part of your personal lives that you choose to bring into this environment, then there is a simple solution. Keep it off-line. ...... yes. the small australian dog is correct. The best way to avoid any further trouble is to just cool it down with the advertising of it here on PEEL. my suggestion would have to be that they should keep it inside the chatroom, which they mostly do anyways. agreeing with Ben... what crazy thing am i gonna do next?
