    No insult intended ... in fact the threat I started and that was locked was not intented to have anything with the previous threat that was locked. I was trying to carry on a real and civil conversatiion. Sorry if I offened anyone, but you guys, in my opinion, are just too sensitive. Specifically,

    If you guys want to respond professionally then let's discuss. I thought off topic was fair game for most things as long as it stayed within the bounds and decency and wasn't degrading to anyone personally. Am I wrong?

    What kind of a man are you? The guy is unconscious in a coma and you don't have the guts to kiss his girlfriend?

    Those quotes mean nothing out of context! Sorry but I haven't read the thread they were originally in, so to me it is just a bunch of crap. Might be more meaningful if you had a link to the entire thread.
    Hope is the trap the world sets for you every night when you go to sleep and the only reason you have to get up in the morning is the hope that this day, things will get better... But they never do, do they?

    I personally have no idea what they are talking about.

  5. This is boil over from the fox news thread. I requested it be locked because an innocent start degraded into politics at some points in the thread. Off topic rules are:

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    No warez.
    No politics.
    No religion.
    And please behave!!! or else will I close this forum.
    You didn't offend me, I just knew your thread (and this one) was going to go absolutely nowhere.

    Great response. Any supporting statements to the effect. Obviously I felt you were wrong and I was trying to start a dialogue. In fact the threat that was closed had nothing to do with the "Fox New" thread. You guys jumped to a wrong conclusion and I felt that my last threat, https://www.videohelp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=765266#765266, was closed unjustly. It had nothing to do with SPAM, Warez or politics.

    What was I wrong about?
    His name was MackemX

  8. rkr, you must be kidding me? Nothing to do with the Fox News thread? That's how this whole thing started. Dude, I actually agree with some of your views and the 6th grade history book crack had me LMAO. But there were politics in the thread. Do you agree? When I saw your next thread, I said "here's where the arguement will continue." That's when I made my next comment.

    Hmm, politics. I guess that's why I didn't know which thread it was. When I see things start to go that way, I normally just tune out. Sorry not going to read the thread now, so no help from me in your defense, but on the brighter side, you won't have to defend against what I may have said either. :P

    You guys bashing Fox News just can't handle the truth. The truth is that Fox News reflects "Mainstream America". The elite media reflects the liberal East, West Coasts and liberal North. Fox News presents points of view that most (US) Americans hold but which are considered out of vogue, or not PC (politically correct), by the elite media. If you really want to understand what most (US) Americans believe then watch Fox News. If you want what the elites in the US want to make (US) America into then watch the elite media and primetime TV (such as the West(Left)-Wing).

    funny you say that, because around the time of the last US presidential fox news was stroking dubya like a highclass shemale whore.. even though more people voted for al gore than they did bush..

    how is that for truth?

    speaking of the simpsons.. i believe the mp3 below pretty much describes the republican party & the people who eat their shit and love it;

    Did they still teach U.S. History and U.S. Government when you went to school? Or did you not pay attention? Bush got more electoral votes than Gore. It's the electoral college and not the popular vote that elects Presidents in the U.S. If you'd like, I'd be happy to send you my 6-grade history book. It's covered in there.
    so you're saying the majority of america is not mainstream america?

    a point i made later on in the thread before it was closed and new threads popped up.. it turned political.. let it die.

    Really, no kidding. My intention was not to continue the Fox News thread when I authored this one ... https://www.videohelp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=765266#765266 ... My intention was to actually start an off-topic discussion on the intent of the question by Conquest10,

    I was hoping for some off-topic discussion on evolution, which I'm a fan of and which I suspected was the intent of the question. But I could have been wrong and wanted to know the specific point Conquest10 was making. I actually enjoy these kind of exchanges and was looking forward to more. I really didn't mean to offend anyone.

    Now what did tick me off and what I did object to was what I felt were the "High and Mighty" responses from fmctm1sw, Will Hay and pacmania_2001 to https://www.videohelp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=765266#765266 and I felt that I need to confront such responses and the locking of the thread. It just frosts me when people judge what's in my heart without taking the time to discuss it with me. Maybe people find this thread and the one above boring, useless and / or of no value but that doesn't justify (in my opinion) the energy they directed to the thread.

    There was no real point to my statement. Jeex was talking about something and you answered with something completely different. So I just did the same.
    His name was MackemX

    What kind of a man are you? The guy is unconscious in a coma and you don't have the guts to kiss his girlfriend?

    The fox news thread was locked because it did indeed delve into politics and it was obvious that it was only going downhill from there.

    Your last thread was locked because it did not belong in the public forum. If you have a problem with someone's single statement then yes, it would be better served to deal with it in a PM, if the thread where the statement originated has since been locked. Your thread was made completely out of context and literally would mean nothing to anyone other than the single person it was directed at, so yes a PM is in order.

    The same holds true for this thread. Its pointless and it is only bringing up the political debate which got the initial fox thread locked in the first place.

    I'm locking this thread. If any of you want to continue discussing this matter do it in private.
