   I was just wondering....I've noticed that a lot of people have problems with other people on the board and they resort to a flame war. Now this isn't just for people who are arguing, but for everyone who insists on calling people idiots, morons, midgets, stupid, motherfuckers, pussies, etc.... If you are face to face with that certain person, would you resort to flaming the individual the same way or take a different approach. It seems to me that a lot of people on chat boards seem to play the "Big Dog" and hide behind their computer flaming others with harsh language. I for one am also guilty of this (I have calmed down significantly). I just think people should calm down a little on these boards. There is no need call a person a moron or "a fucking midget" just because you know that person doesn't know who are and where you live and won't do shit about it. Let's all be big boys and girls and play nice. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Moe: If it's all done in fun....that's no problem because I understand that a lot people are just fucking around. When it comes to a newbie asking a certain question and someone responding by calling them a "moron" or "stupid"....that shit is just uncalled for. (Oh...I'm not saying you did this so don't think I'm talking about you) I just can't stand people hiding behind their computers when in all actaulity (spelling), they wouldn't even say half the shit they were saying if they are face to face with that person. (unless they were built like Ronnie Coleman....then they can talk all the shit they want) IP: Logged |

Flex b funny you should use a bodybuilder as a an example of someone to fear. I would go toe to toe with a bodybuilder any day of the week big,slow and the stamina of a regular smoker. I'm do not have tuffguy syndrome by any chance but i have flored many 250plus lb so called bodybuilders.In a street fight these people do not stand a chance! Just a little tired off people using size to try to instill fear.No flame intended flex!

I post what I feel and if you have read my post you know that I mean what I say. I have no time for some ass taking apart what I say and miss using it! I now that Moe has been there himself. Problem is rather than disagree with a person and state it without name calling. Alot of people here start off with the name calling and I for one have no time for that. I talk to everyone I meet, my wife hates it. In this world you need every friend you can get. No one can go it alone. Thats one of the reasons I come here. To form friendships with people about something I love to do - BB. If you have an problem with something I have written I can deal with it. Thats what makes the world cool everyone has different views, but thats no reason to go getting ugly. Just state what you think, I'm big enough to except that and respect you for it! Peace my BB brothers! IP: Logged |

Oh shit I was way off. When I read the heading I was thinking about the damn gay parade we had here in Long Beach last weekend. I couldn't even go to the gym they were everywhere. Damn, why can't they stay up in the bay area. ( Just kidden )
