You should reconsider. You don't want to be the guy who, on his death bed, says "I just wish I'd spent more time reading that thread about HCP and OB". barfo
Seriously OB, we've done a lot about this situation. We have not minimalize them. We really have given you and this situation a ton of attention. Not trying to minimalize it at all. Now we're the point where for things to move forward is for both of you to leave each other alone. Here is the deal, both of you have previous agreed to leave each other alone and I have every confidence that you both of you will now but I will add a little incentive. ... @THE HCP and @Orion Bailey this has to stop so from now on if one of you posts to, posts at, posts about, mentions, insults, etc. in the forum or via PM you will get a 10 day vacation from the forum. If it happens again, the vacation doubles. Again... doubles. This new vacation benefit will not apply to communication with staff or in this thread.
People are jobless, homeless, kids are hungry, people are still dying of Covid, and S2 drama is bothering people? Perspective people.
When people tell you, repeatedly he doesn't fucking mean it, yes, we expect you to move on and realize he doesn't mean it. If anything, you should just get tired of it because it was predictable. But this all stemmed from when you came in and he flipped you shit about being a "newbie" and you got bent out of shape over it. Despite many of us saying "ignore it, he's just being a dork". Similar to how jlprk says random shit that no one takes seriously. or how barfo says random shit and it's part of his charm (not that he doesn't say things in a serious tone at times). No, it's called PERSPECTIVE. He's the guy who is constantly having people joke about sleeping with his wife, and it doesn't bother him. Never ONCE has he reacted in any manner other than realizing it's a joke. So of all the jokes he gets lofted at him, do you honestly think he's going to not react to that, but than randomly be mean spirited to new people, or instead of just cracking on on people in a joking manner, he's gonna be some kind of bully? That's just not how he is. But you already decided that he's 100% a jerk, and no matter what anyone who actually knows him tells you, you 100% made up your mind already. No, that's where you're missing out on the perspective of he gets made fun of/ripped on far worse than anything he's ever done. And he *never* responds to it in kind. So maybe you're overreacting to it. You instantly complained that he attacked you (I'm paraphrasing this, so please don't do a deep internet search to prove you never said this) because you were a newbie at one time. You notice that my comment got a fair amount of likes? Because people agreed. It's so exhausting having to have mods explain to you again and again to let it go and to ignore him and then you claim you won't react anymore to only have you react about him in a situation that has nothing to do with you at all and you constantly bring up the same arguments. Just stop talking about him, stop complaining about him, stop stop stop. I mean really, aren't you an adult? Find a new hobby, because this one is really not healthy for you.
tlong's tombstone will read "died while reading the drama between OB and HCP. And banging 3 supermodels"
Not doing what you want is not the same thing as not doing anything. You only see things from your own perspective.
For the sake of clarification, you meant a message to a mod/global mod/admin, correct? Because I think we might want to clarify that we can't read your messages to each other.
You guys are all out here punking me, right? This can't be real life. Where's the hidden camera? You can come out now guys. Can't believe you guys would do such an elaborate prank just to get me, a nobody poster!
It's not really about me ... well, I mean anymore than everything is about me ... so, yeah, it's not mandatory reading.
Definitely time to put the jobless/homeless/foodless/COVID stuff on the backburner for what's really important.
