Hate crimes are crimes right.

Ummmm, when did Star Wars become a recognized religion?

Good point....see you in 6 months

(sorry, but you asked for that one)

Bud,
Your suggestions included enforcing off topic rules...what off topic rules? This has been discussed ad nauseum. Unfortunately, staying strictly on topic is sometimes limiting and counterproductive. That is not to say that there isn't a bunch of crap that gets tossed in, and that does need to be limited when it clearly doesn't have a purpose.
Also

some time limit on boi posts so somthing from years in the past can not be used to harm a good standing reputation as has been done.
you ever hear about paying a penalty and doing time only to
years later have to relive it again?
whats the point of being a better person if its never gonna go away.

This doesn't happen in the "real world", why would you expect it to happen here. A person's record follows them, haunts them, in fact, for a long time. Sometimes longer than the crime should demand...but that is part of the price. One can live it down - eventually, and for the most part - but it takes time, and effort.

Good post, Harald. And thank you for not making any stupid, sappy comment about someone being gay, pinko, or otherwise unfit to post here...

Oh Bud, just incase you missed this: Star Wars is an epic space opera franchise and a fictional universe initially developed by George Lucas during the 1970s.

Oh mighty Darth Vader, Awesome Dark Lord of the Sith, please help us with this mierkey pile of wookie dung.

Oh sorry for the typo: mierkey = mirkey

Bobby you are entitled to your feelings, but I know you have it in you to be less antagonistic to Bud; it isn't necessary to call names to get your point across.

An opinion, yes indeed. A statement of fact? Hardly. You should learn the difference and post the appropriate in the proper place.

bud is nothing more than an idiot. He will never change. Calling an idiot an idiot is not name calling.

Now were he to prove me wrong and actually post intelligently, then calling him an idiot would be wrong. In all the years he's been posting here he's never managed to do it. I highly doubt he ever will.

Whatever, Mr. Keyboard commando. In the "Real World", I would sooner have Bud watching my back than some cowardly stiff like you. Find a reason to give me warning points for that, chickencrap.
