Move on.
You sent me a totally freaked out pm what? .... 3 and a half to 4 hours ago. You were told that you need not pm me again.

Now you want to continue you this on the boards.......are you some sort of chemically impaired person or something? You have been posting all over all evening---did you have to drink up some nerve to continue this bullshit?

Get help!

I have other things to do, amazingly enough, and surprise though it may be to you, do not read your rants as they appear. I am, as usual, correcting your misrepresentations. As for "continuing this on the boards", here are your exact words:
"I reserve the arguing bullshit for the boards--I resent wasting my time with total assholes off the boards."
Reads like an invitation to me.

I am not sure to what joke you refer. The Wack Packer demanded a "PM" apology for another exchange, and the image was my public response, an image of "PM", or Prime Minister, Tony Blair doing something odd.

I believe Teri B pointed out that quoting PM's on the boards was a violation of board rules. We'll let the admin with the benefit of the full text of all the pm's decide if that sentence was an invitation or not. Okay?

But given that you have chosen to violate the rules that Teri underlined ---would you like to add that you were told in the first response to your insane rantings not to PM me again --- and that the post you quoted here opened telling you in no uncertain terms not to pm me again?

That is, in fact, why you went back pages in the threads to find this thread and continue here hours later---is it not? Can troll be defined any better than that?

Do another tab of acid and get freaky like you did the other night---creep!

The owners of the boards will do what they believe they have to do...it is their property. They do allow your rants here, however, so we will see if fairness wins the day.

Rants--whether you agree with them or not--are not a violation of board rules. Apparently, according to Teri B at least, revealing contents of PM's is a violation of the rules.

Trolling, is too, against the rules---I believe.

So yep---I agree---let the admins decide this one.

That moment of harmony aside, perhaps we, and possibly they, have different definitions of "trolling". Continually harassing other posters through name calling and insults, for example, for daring to offer observations which apparently do not sit well with the harassers may be considered "trolling" by some. Making a point to correct misconceptions, misrepresentations or outright lies may be considered "trolling" by others. Some may consider all of it lively debate.
I am unable to find any list of rules for this site, and as I said, the owners can make them as they sit fit. However, I would argue that a note to me becomes my property to do with what I will. I revealed no "secrets", your real name, for example, which I did not ask for and did not / do not want, nor will I. I made a point about your stated preference for dealing with others, including me, in a public way, so here it is.

Take it up with eric. I believe that Teri has recommended to you the use of "ignore" for your other issues.
