Robby, I'm going to explain this to you as simply as I can and hope that you can comprehend it - the reason I brought my sisters up was not to provide a statistical n of 2. It was because after you flew into your tantrum in the first few pages, you repeatedly and unfoundedly insisted that I had no knowledge of the matter, e.g.,:
Are you starting to get it yet?
I never once mentioned that my sister had died or how on this forum. I only mentioned that in a PM to you, then you proceeded to make it public.
Why don't you go ahead and post this alleged threat, Robby? Actually, I'll post it for you:
Yeah, real threatening. |
Look I really do not understand why you waited this long to communicate this to me.
What I saw was you being condescending to me like a lot of people do just because I'm not a diehard trance fan like some people here.
I DID get that impression from you immediately and I responded to that impression.
Theres a lot of shit I can analyze about what happened, and I still don't think I was treated fairly at all, but when a person tells me THEMSELF, WHY they reacted to me a certain way, vs just acting that way and ignoring 99% of what I say, thats when empathy usually surfaces.
There was something that was obviously bothering you and the last thing I thought it was was the language I was using. I thought it was merely because I tried to correct you, because right after that point you seemed to have lost patience. And in my head I concluded "when you try to correct cryo, prepare for shit to hit the fan", which obviously is what sprang my defenses.
And no, "crossed the line" is not a terribly malicous threat, but its still a threat, and "hollow" to me implies it was weak, which you already said. But you told me I crossed the line like you were going to do something about it, and I think you'd take that as a threat to. The fact that you can't do anything about it (except try to get me banned) is why I said "hollow". But here we go again arguing semantics.
I'm in no way saying I reacted the right way, but when 2 people are arguing, theres not really any rules. Anything you bring up has the potential to be used against you. I'm sure your sister was a wonderful woman, and you loved her to death, but telling the forum she died didn't seem like I was revealing anything that would hurt either her or you.
You then reacted in a way that only further provoked me to use that against you, so if I apologize for anything, its definitely for insulting your family, but not for taking the initial stance I did.
W/e, it was a joke. I was offended by how you took the stance that saying "native indian" is disrespectful, and that didn't seem like part of the joke. The joke was before that imo. Maybe I'm wrong I don't fucking know.
Lets just squash this, although I'm still keeping my distance from your friend Eddie for my own personal reasons.
