what Forum would that be. As someone who often offends people myself sometimes I'm inclined to sit back and watch some other experts go at it. |
The forums on Internet Movie database are full of trolls and incredibly abusive group of people who i was caught up in about 5 years ago - it was cyber bullying city - horrific stuff...

Well Mike... I came a little later here... but I've never felt ofended by your words and thoughts... I do admire your courage to try to pull the attention to some topics that you want to argue about and I think is good to believe in something and try to make a research and share it with us... I found the religious discussions quite entertain and I win a lot learning with all the people that share their ideas without attacking each other... I want to say that I have learned a lot from people like Dean, Rob, Jay, Teo, Iván, you Mike and others with whom I have discuss about something... 
Just a little advise Mike, if I can dare to give it... when you open a topic, you tend to answer to everyone and sometimes is like you are bombing the place with post over post, and that is not bad, but sometimes is easier to answer in one post instead of 5, so people can track you easier and don't feel like you are fighting with everybody... but well... I don't find problems with your thread Mike... |
I know what you mean ... well, at least in threads or polls that I start myself I try to answer every post, and that can sometimes seem like I'm a bit overzealous or fanatical. Using one post to answer several others is a way to avoid that, but on the other hand it makes answering/quoting my post more difficult.

Make that fifteen pages when I have shared with you all the heart-attack inducing trivialities from a dull life. No. ProgFreak has not offended me. I have never had any online conversations or exchanges of views with ProgFreak. So just to get that one sorted out; I say "how do you do" to Mr. Prog Freak.

By the way, I just want to say, regarding your site, it's been an extremely valuable tool for me for evaluating Crossover nominees. Also, best of luck with your weight loss regimen.
People sometimes get a little too pissy around here. If you're not here for the fun, there are probably better uses of your time. I was about to post in that thread where you made the dietary recommendation to the guy seeking prayers that you can count on ProgArchives for prayers, best wishes, and low carb diet advice. Then I had to wonder, would this really cheer the guy up? Maybe I should have been bolder. And who knows? Maybe his health problems are diet related, maybe not. So anyway 'nuff said...

Where is this thread going Mike and has it elicited the required feedback to the OP ? Should some feckless soul actually step up to mark and claim they have been offended by any of your previous posts, you clearly do not plan to either retract or express regret for having done so ? Ergo, we are all cognisant that some of our views may alienate some members of PA but the overwhelming majority do not seek to elicit confirmation of same via a 'collateral damage report'. Five pages of 'we agree to differ' is borderline offensive Nuke the critter

Count me in too............. I am doing a 800 km long charity ride over 7 days in the beginning of July (in 95 days time). I am 15 kgs over my match weight and untrained. 300 km of those 800 km goes through Western Ross. There is hardly a flat piece of road in that area. The rest is exposed to wind and the elements, being out on the islands here.
PANIC !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
And ... what will you be riding?
|
An ambulance after the first 50 k most likely. |
|
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

I like IMDB some funny reviews there, but yes some of the reviews are realy silly and cant be said to be overly objective.

True. I am a madman. Totally.
I will be OK at the end though. The best thing is that the cold weather, besides of creating havoc with my training regime, also have killed some trillion midges. That means I can rely on blood supply to and from my heart during that tour. Which is a nice, unexpected bonus.
