    Hell, even "Slorch'd" is a personal attack that's going to get someone stirred up and defensive.

    And yes, he threw out some sort of insult, which was immediately followed by another poster throwing out insults back at him and then it all turns to shit. 

     

    I seem to recall you are a newer ish poster, but slorch has been this way for decades. It's a meme at this point.

     

    I will also say I think slorch is a standup dude. It's more amusing than anything when he goes down these holes.

    Hoping to be out there for the air show September. Need to work out a few kinks in the schedule. 

    Heck yeah. My office is right at the foot of the 23 runways so we always get a front row seat. Let me know if you make it and want any recs on food and drinks or anything else.

     

    We actually laid some drainage across 23L while they operated on 23R, which is maybe 100' away or so. Pretty wild.

    Hey I used to live there.

    Ha, nice. I grew up here under the jets, so it's basically background noise to me. I don't enjoy it by any stretch but it is what it is.

    Builds house next to sun. Sues because of heat.

    We go through this is exact thing here in Virginia Beach with NAS Oceana. The airbase has been here for almost a century, people move in, complain about jet noise.

  5. After two decent sized novellas from imma and Hayden I'm still baffled. I wanted to say I feel like I'm taking crazy pills but Fantana beat me to the punch.

     

    Obviously troll comes and trolls, people say hey you are a troll. This is an issue because imma knows the guy?

    The point of the post wasn't to say that Bama fans have never experienced 8 win seasons

    My point is Alabama was 4 and 7 my freshman year of college. They were 3 and fucking 8 in 2000. Hell they were 0 and 7 from vacated wins one year lol.

     

    8 wins and beat Tennessee regularly and the Barn often enough and I'm hunky dory man. Anyone over the age of 40 will tell you the same. Really upon reflection, after the past 17 years they could not win another game and I'm not that broken up about it.

    IMO you should consider rules and policies on factual discussions and posts then. If someone is arguing things that are factually untrue, then any thread with that person is gonna go to shit. All the oxygen for discussion will be eaten up by just getting basic facts straight. 

    That's exactly what happened in that thread. The fix isn't telling people to be less mean, it's to tell them to stop presenting bullshit headlines as irrefutable fact. 

    The posts in that thread you're doing your weird high road act on pretty clearly and calmly lay it all out. Genuinely, you're more passionate than anyone in that thread - and you're strangely not mad at the person pooping in the punchbowl, but don't like that people are trying to fish the turd out

    @immamac this is literally exactly it

    I’m real over this trope of coming in and making statements being portrayed as a meltdown or some type of thin skinned behavior. That thread was a clear example of toxicity and instead of being like yeah maybe we need to step back the posters who are most toxic just started memeing like they are “owning” the moderator or “running me off”. Bitch if I was mad you would be banned, I’d shut the cloak room down and tell you all to get fucked. I’m trying to be a steward for the entire community not just some very small very vocal subsegment that can’t figure out their toxicity is alienating what could probably be a decent discussion on a pretty hot and important topic. 

     

    Jesus dude. Guy wanders in and says some stupid shit, people point it out. It's not difficult.

     

    I wasn't even a part of it, I read it after the fact as a third party observer, and I can assure you the only emotion in there was your reaction. I don't care if you know him and he is a decent dude  or whatever, if people say something dumb, they should expect to be told it. If I'm talking to a friend standing next to me and he says something that dumb or disingenuous, I will absolutely call him a dipshit.

     

    Also quit saying toxicity, it's stupid.
