Theft?  Are you being serious?

Originally posted by GMYW Theft?  Are you being serious? Well I'm glad this forum is not representative of the sailors I am clearly fortunate to call my friends, club mates and competitors.  Really some of you do seem an argumentative, ill-informed and over-opinionated bunch of morons.

Baptism of fire dude, come on here, blubbering cos your class looks like a bunch of cheats, so you call folk fools and whatever, what do you expect? This is a virtual kick about and you're the ball, the judgement of the strength of character of someone who sails a fur ball and wether he/she can take it as well as hand it out, will define wether anyone pays any attention to you in future. It's a cruel world this internet lynch mob stuff, they're not bad people, you've just made some of them mad, and they all wet themselves and can't sleep, stay up all night making up posts then deleting them...

And of course none of us are clever enough to sail an old wooden scow designed in 1962 and renown for being towed behind Ford Escort Mexico's of the period, that would be a Ford Mondeo these days I guess, I bet you have to be really good and know everything there is to know about sailing to make one of those go, unless of course the handicap is absurdly wrong when it's breezy, then what would I know..

Originally posted by iGRF Originally posted by GMYW To IGRF- Poppycock; you clearly know nothing.  [ Dude, normally, you need more than two posts to insult me and elicit any kind of response, to me you're just another sad relic from a time long gone that won't wake up or wise up, but I'm going to cut you a break, now enough of the insults or I'll push the report button, you need to serve your time like I did, before you call me or anyone else a fool, or suggest I know nothing when precisely the opposite is the case these days.

g.r.f . this is really rich coming from you.

for two of many reasons;

1) you are always going on about free speech. does it only apply to you? if we pressed the report button every time you posted something we didnt like. it would be pressed everyday!

2) leave the newby alone and cut him some slack. if you come out with what you do, you have to expect a little flack.
