Good god. You two are like sixth grade girls. You can stretch a legitimate debate into petty arguing with no effort, and you can go back-and-forth about nothing trying to get the last word.

Why can't you just put each other on ignore lol?

Or is this one of those things where you guys love to hate each other?

I'd be completely fine and have suggested for him to ignore me multiple times. He comments on my posts, I don't really read his as is until he comments on mine. I have no idea why he won't put me on ignore list.

Sure ya don't...


Lion, my man. I honestly don't search out Koon. He simply has a magic way of getting on my nerves. If you followed this argument, it all started with Koon trying to bust on GB for not sharing his Loy man crush. He created the attack and now wants to pull the victim card when it backfires on him. For some reason, he seems to believe that he should be able to say whatever he wants without being called out for it. That's not how life works. He says he "doesn't read my post", but you're a smart guy, Lion. We know that's not true.

Believe whatever you want, I can't control your mind. But I honestly don't read your posts until you pick me out and comment on mine. No offense but I just don't get anything from you as a poster. And you don't from me I'm sure and I'm OK with that. But it's obvious you read mine, so that's why his question is very relevant.

Sure... Except that it's simply not true. You respond, unsolicited, to my posts all of the time.

This lack of regard for my opinion must be a recent event, since it wasn't long ago when you pm'd me about advice on the business idea you had...

Wooly, it would probably increase your life expectancy if you let some of Koon's opinions go.

It was years ago and I PM'd many people about that - I love opinions. But that was before my opinion of you changed. And IDK what to tell you, I really don't read your posts until you come at me. There's probably a dozen posters who's posts I skip past.

Agree. Why don't you block me and make the site more enjoyable for everyone? I don't need to block you or any of the others who I skip over because I don't bother reading them.

You can still take your jabs at me, but you won't have the temptation of seeing me post and won't be as bothered. The question is why you don't and if you don't, we all know why.

Ignoring a poster is a nice attempt, but you still see that post that shows someone posted, but doesn't show that they say. I've tried to ignore certain posters, and I end up unblocking them just to see the stupid crap they say. It's an addiction. An addiction to pissing myself off.

I realize it's not perfect but it'd cut down the posts of mine that he sees in half at least. Most of my posts don't get quoted.

Can you guys just let it go? Just drop this one?

At least give it some time until the next flare-up happens?

People on this site disagree with each other every day without issue. Even the two of you, when not posting and quoting each other, have reasonable discussions with people you disagree with. But for some reason, you two devolve into bickering and needless back-and-forth far too often. For the love of all that is good and reasonable on this board full of heathens, please try to work on it.

*Disclaimer: I respect both of you as posters. I love Koon's ability to throw a Jackie Moon quote into almost anything, and Wooly is a smart dude that can debate with the best of them, and he also knows when to get Wiz riled up, which I respect. I have no problems with Koon asking the board for advice on how to wipe his ass properly, and I have no problems with Wooly giving Koon grief over it. I even enjoy reading your back-and-forth issues because they are quality entertainment most of the time. But, for every back-and-forth that occurs, there is work for a mod to do. I kindly ask that you both keep that in mind.

Sure, but back and forth is a polite way of putting it - I never seek out the bickering with him. He sniffs my ass around this site, starts something, then I respond and all of a sudden it's some rivalry. It's not, I don't read the damn guy's posts until he comments on mine, lol. I have no interest in his posts or starting debate with him, it's all him coming at me.

Koon... I'm chill... Give it up. No need to keep the fire going.

I'll respect Lion's comment and move on for the night.

Smooches.

Koon, you have to realize that some of the stuff you post is a little incendiary to say the least. After something has happened literally 25+ times, you're telling me you don't shoulder at least some sort of the blame?

No, I don't. I joke around on here all of the time but I never try to piss people off or start fights. It's the same group of posters that come at me, it's never new or random ones. I'm not going to name them publicly but if you pay attention, it's obvious. I can PM you the names if you want, that's fine.

Like Wooly, I'm done with this for the night.

But you don't read his posts, so how would you know if he was "coming after you"?

When youre the only person that posts in the improvement thread, you read the replies. That's the last bad question I can handle tonight.

*you* were the one who told wooly that you don't even read his posts, unless he is "coming at you".... it's pretty obvious that you can't know if he is "coming at you" unless you read his posts. Don't get upset with me for simply pointing that out.

I read all posts in the home improvement thread because they are usually helpful answers. Yes, I read woolys posts in there in case he offers advice, but it's always been to belittle. In every other thread I do not read his posts.

So if we must be black and white, you are Correct, I do not ignore 100% of his posts. I read all posts in home improvement.

You guys didn't even last until 10am this morning with this stuff. I personally think a lot of it is funny but it can't be in recruit's threads. Just ignore each other.

It's not funny, it's annoying. And no PMs please, God.

The word wholesome, when used in regards to women, makes me laugh. IDGAF if it's Webster's literal definition, my friends and I don't use it that way in regards to women. I wasn't making fun of Wooly, I was pointing out that that used in regards to woman was funny to me. Who gives a ****, how that becomes a thing is beyond me.
