I “had better not”? What, are you going to make a post, maybe use curse words or even call me names? I’m unimpressed. This seems to be a very silly attempt at intimidation. If you want to make some kind of point with me, well reasoned arguments or questions will get you much farther.
I did not implicate you or anyone in my complementing of Tatali0n. Why can’t I just point out that I’m impressed with Tatali0n’s personal integrity in this instance? I didn’t point out anyone that has been operating in a less then honest manner because I wasn’t trying to make a negative post but a positive one. And I was thinking maybe those that have or would attempt to misrepresent their intentions might be inspired to be forthright instead.
I am curious why you puffed out your chest and acted like the internet tough guy over some comment that no reasonable person would link to you?

So LK, unless you have a list of everyone who posted in those preceding threads, I suggest you give an apology to whoever it is you were pointing that vague finger at. And have the decency to use their name(s) rather than vague slander that blackens the name of everyone disagreeing with you by omission.
As I stated earlier my intention was to make a positive post and to show my respect for Tatali0n being up front about his intentions and motivations. I don’t see why anyone would take exception such an act. And I disagree that listing those I know or believe to be acting in a dishonest way to be a decent thing to do. At best it would derail this thread, act as an unnecessary personal attack, and diminish the respect I was trying to show Tatali0n.
By omitting names I do not convey even the slightest amount of slander upon anyone. A reasonable person would not believe that everyone disagreeing with me is guilty of such dishonesty nor would any reasonable person believe that I’m accusing all that disagree with me of such. And I hope that you aren’t trying to discredit me or my stance by implying that I was suggesting such about those that I disagree with.
