By the time she arrives here with the ability to comprehend what is typed, she will have become aware that there is a level of human being below reptilian in its morals, and she will see the crapstock touters as merely one more mildly interesting subset of that filth, it's like when you step on a bug with a distinctive squishiness to it, you look at it a little before scraping it off your boot, it's a bit fascinating for about a second and a half, no more

From Bob's point of view, the thing is to promote the posting of things others will find interesting to read, and discourage such fantastically boring items as personal jabs that no one outside of a small in-group understands .... just business, fact of life, if the business doesn't do well we'll have no boards to post on .... freedom of speech may have its sharp edges, it's true, the trick though is to grab it by the handle not the blade, then swing it with a passion

Dear Win-Lose-Draw,
.
Upfront let me say that i have no knowledge of the conflict
that you reference, infact at this moment i do not remember
the name of the person you reference in your post.
.
After i post this i will click onto your Si profile and then go to
one of posts here today to click on the other person's profile.
I mention this only as a reference to marcos's suggestion,
as follows:

What i know of marcos tells me that you are being baited
by this other person in a manner to harass you by pushing
them hot button each of us carry internally that explode us
with rage and anger each time almost anyone presses.
.
Eventhought this places you as the "good" guy,
versus the other person taking on the role as bad guy,
marcos being a genuine good & nice & smart person
has lead you in a direction that will increase your discomfort,
and more importantly, prevent you from increasing a connection
to those people closest to you, and infact damage what you now have.

re:
Responding to Msg from Win-Lose-Draw
... my kid will soon be old enough to read,
i want she should stumble across this site
where one of life's perpetual losers has Bob's OK
to make posts questioning her paternity?
[stop.]

I'll itemize the points you will make towards your "kid."
- Don't judge me by what i say and do, but what others,
especially those i think are bad people, say.
- I don't have a bond with you strong enough such that
when you hear from strangers, words that on the face of it,
imply that i have done a disservice towards you in our relationship,
that you have not acquired enough connection between us
that which identifies us as father/daughter, to work with
such that a resolution can be obtained, and no matter what
that may be, we can work together and build a structure
that will support our relationship for a long & healthy life.
- By placing the responsibility on another [BobZ] i am also
telling you that i do not want to take any stand that requires
me to acknowledge an understanding of events between us,
because this i am uncomfortable with, the process of us having
any kind of real father-daughter conversion about the facts of life
that include the manner men & women react to each other
outside the narrow educational process of biology & birds & bees.
- Bottom line, there is information i have keep from you
based on my troubled mind fearing you "hearing from others"
things about me or us i have not told you.

WLD: I don't think she'll stumble on it, because I don't think this site will exist a couple of years from now when she's reading. Don't let a street gang member or an insensitive big shot with a bad temper and bad judgment, rule your life. SI is no loss to anyone, so leave SI, as I did long ago. Believe me, I never missed it even though there were 12,000+ posts from me under that old account and I thought it was important to me. It wasn't. But iH? Matt wouldn't let those posts stand on iH and there's room for a lot of constructive discussion there. As of now, anyway. Don't be impulsive. And don't look at who is saying not to be impulsive. lol
