This issue comes up from time to time and this is as good a place to address it as any. Some people make a big deal that I am almost Rich's age and seem smug and self satisfied when they point this out instead of addressing their own negative issues which are usually being discussed at the time.
Many times, they pair this with the observation that some of us have 'too much time on our hands' and criticize participation (only, of course, those others who don't agree with them, they never criticize the participation of those who agree with what they are saying.)
This seems to me to be a
particularly stupid way to respond to someone in a thread, particularly if you are having your own negative issues discussed and even more particularly if you have realized that what you are saying, unlike other sites and places like fb, is permanently available for review.
If you poke a bear and remind it of how much time it has, it is a safe bet that the aforementioned bear might take some of that time to go after the poker. What? You expect that you can say whatever comes into your little head and then have no responsibility for your very own words? Well, good luck with that.
I do have the time to take these threads and send them outside of this site. Normally, I do not have that inclination, I feel that there are plenty of people who do searches of the BOI and who can make their decisions of who to buy and sell to based on their search.
But there are exceptions; Fauna is not some alternate reality safely sealed away from others and particularly egregious misdoings that have harmed others or smug pokes against me are fair game.
Mr. Chiappini has circumvented Fauna rules in order to bypass his ban and get into this site. He can hardly then cry foul if others bring site content elsewhere.
