I've been researching more posts on the Universal Sliders NetForum. If you read my earlier post 'A Funny Post for the Whole Board' wait until you read this reply that Temporal Flux wrote to another user called WA! As before the following is uncut but has been paragraph/line reformatted to be easier to read on this board......

TemporalFlux:PLEASE READ THIS FIRST

I respected your wishes and only read the last of your messages...but your first responses are closer to how you truly feel I would guess. Before I go on, this post is not about USM in any way...it's about WA's attitude.

There is one major problem with all of this WA...from the beginning you have claimed that I have misunderstood what you said, right? And that of course means that I misunderstood your words as an attack towards myself and other innocent people who were friendly to you in their responses (they are posted further down on this board if you want to read them, but I notice you have been avoiding that)..is that correct?

Now in your last post you said all of this plus you told me that my "attack" on you was unfair and that you were only using your right to defend yourself which I should respect. Why should I? You have not respected me from the beginning of this...you claim that I misunderstood you yet you have no understanding that my comments were based on that...you don't respect MY right to defend myself
against your attacks as I perceived them, this is proven when you first response to me comes back with biting comments and telling me that you'll forgive everyone but me never ONCE saying "I believe there's been a misundestanding, let me explain what I'm tyring to do with this..." and THEN seeing if I attack again or if I too misunderstood you. You didn't give me the chance...the chance that you are asking for. And yes, it was YOUR responsibilty to do that since you made the original post (not the USM stories, your response) that I replied to.

Do you realize that everything I have said to you is REACTIVE? Do you? You claim to be an intelligent boy, what does that mean? I'll tell you...you have been the catalyst to every word spoken from my side. So, what happens when you remove the catalyst to a chemical reaction, WA? WHAT?!? IT DOESN'T HAPPEN YOU SAY!

So, if you want peace, then why don't you shut up...or do you want to continue on your little crusade against myself and through me all of those who didn't agree with you inconsiderate methods of posting. Now, you say this can't be done? Well, let me point something out to you...spindoctor has respected my right to my opinion. He had his say and I had mine...that was it, it was over. HE has shown maturity in all of this and I will now admit that I was gravely mistaken in many (if not all) of the things I said about him. You on the other hand are just proving to be more what I said you were every day.

As far as your reconciliation goes...it's hollow and unsincere WA. If someone has to "coach" you into an apology or an understanding that even by your own admission is supposed to be fundamental knowledge in everyone's etiquette, then you obviously don't mean it when it finally comes out. Yes, this is your attempt to end this, but it doesn't mean anything. If you want this to end, then move on with you life. Do you see me coming on to the forum posting only things that I will KNOW will incite violence? You claim to have limited time on the internet...so why do you spend it posting things that you KNOW will incite violence? That doesn't make sense.

What do you want me to do, WA? Do you want to me to say "Peace brother!" when you still harbor the notion deep down in your soul that I am the one who intiated this attack "unfairly" even though it was based on what you claim as a misunderstanding? Sorry buddy, somehow after reading through your posts of late, I don't think you would do the same for me. If you want it to end, then end it here. Do not respond.

Ball. Strike Two.

This post was made in response to a reply by WrongArturo on September 9, 1997 at 10:05:51 forum time. It was in the thread "USM **TRUCE**" and here is a link if you need confirmation on anything I have referred to:

My, but this man didn't get his medication that day did he?

The rest of the story...

What has been neglected to mention is what this was over. WA had posted upwards of 15 topic messages reposting USM fan fic stories (which were located on a WEBSITE)...thus making the board almost unusable (i.e. you know who). My first response was simply to ask him to not do that anymore since it was making the board unuable...and I added that I really didn't understand why he did it since the stories were housed on a website. (I was not alone in asking this). WA's response was to the effect of "How dare you!"...and after going a smear campaign of me, he offered a hollow truce...by the time he offered it, I was beyond pissed off (since there was no reason for it to get to that point to begin with...my first response wasn't asking much of him and even offered a viable compromise)...so, I shoved it back in his face. By that point, if he wanted it to end, he could shut up as far as I was concerned...mainly because he was the one who took it to that point to begin with.

And once again...who was another cheerleader of the syrup ordeal of profanity and nonsense posts? WA. In fact, he made a separate post after my "farewell" cheering that I was gone (something a man of "peace" would do, right?). Since that time, this has all passed under the bridge and has been forgotten...and now it only comes up as a "tool" of people who like to stir up trouble.
