how would you know?
'Cause I'm not stupid.
yeah but, how would you KNOW???
'Cause I know I'm not stupid.
But how does anyone really KNOW?
well, people that were actually around when Flame Wars was actually a thing would, for starters.

I cant say what he did with other users but my experience has been the same as mookiemcgee. The only PM I got from him was a copy of his forum post telling me why I was wrong, which was also put on my wall in case I didnt see it in either of the two other places.
If this was my site I would have booted him off. Not because I dislike him (which I dont) but because of the poor attitude to new players or new posters. If he had kept his snarky rebukes for old hands and people that had been around for a while that would be fine.
Worse was when his little gang of trolls backed him up against a newb. A couple of times I challenged him but he is pretty dedicated to his own opinions.
Totally agree on all points. Humiliating people in the forum, even if he subsequently sent a PM with a proper comment, is the wrong way to go about things. It will be interesting to see if new player retention increases in his absence (not that it's the only factor, far from it, but he definitely put off some newcomers from returning). Treat everyone with respect and dignity - you never know, they might return it

What is all this namecalling for?
It's a substitute for a mature reasoned debate by those who don't have anything worthwhile to say. This is actually what the Foe facility is for. Please try to avoid quoting loutish behaviour so I don't have to read it The main reason I took time away was because of the pig-headed. immature macho behaviour of some. Thankfully, one has gone; one might hope that the voices of reason now prevail, although sadly, some of the dinosaurs remain.

Ugh!! Who is [player]Jdizz[/player]? There are over 10 usernames on this site that begin with "Jdizz."
If you had read my username accurately before piping in with your incorrect spelling, you would have realized that my username doesn't begin with "Jdizz" but instead "Jdsizz."
Instead, thanks to your lack of consideration for others, and to myself, we all now have to wonder who you are talking about!
