I think NoD also genuinely tried to smooth it, within the limits of being true to his original point.
Yeah, this.
I enjoy other people's flaws (and we're all flawed) because that's what makes them real, provides texture, and makes them human. [/quote]
Truth, mb. No way I could say it better. I don't especially want him to split, either.
But it's not like he doesn't have a history of taking his own snarky rips. And the whole thing of theatening to leave, without ever actually leaving, just gets worn down at a point.
I hope he tuffs up and comes back. Pretty sure no one was actually trying to get him to leave.

You know what?
I've learned something today. If you help a homeless person out don't post that s#!t on the internet. Sure you might get a few awesome points, but people are so nutted up about the topic that you're more likely to alienate a few contributors to a forum you're posting it in. You should just keep your filthy whore mouth shut.

If it hadn't been your thread it would have just eventually happened in another I'm sure. It's a shame someone would feel the need to leave a community they have been actively involved in for some time over serving one person said. Especially when so many others here expressed their support for Jess.

Wrong lesson; wrong learning, MB. What you did for that dude on the parking lot was kind, and beautiful. No reason you should ever look at it differently.
You didn't do it subject to public referendum in the first place, right? So, what has changed afterwards?
You should feel as good about it now as you (hopefully) did then. You did a tangible thing, to help a guy who'd been gone for awhile come back to what's real. There's nothing but grace in that.
Werther spoke like they had been around here for a while. Is that the case?
I don't think so. I only know him for his back-and-forth with Flanzo about Chris Christie in the Election 2012 thread and getting super pissy when someone didn't predict the New York Giants would make the playoffs this year.
Ha - and people wondered about my thread in this forum. This is exactly the crap I was talking about in my letter to Inforoo and this is exactly why I rarely post (or even lurk) here anymore.
This whole argument was bullshit. Nobody on here had a right to try and pass judgment on Jess for riding around at Christmas handing out beer and money to homeless people. Who the fuck made you God? His kids should never have been brought into, his maturity or lack thereof regarding partying is a null issue on this board (duh??? I can only name a handful of Inforooers that aren't fucked up at 'roo)
And Jess shouldn't take shit so seriously but I understand being pissed when there was even a slight reference to HS kids and parenting skills.
Inforoo used to be fun. It sed to be informative. I learned what to expect at my first 'roo and I used to learn about new music. Now it seems like most threads end up being a "my opinion is better than yours" argument and that's just crap.
Nobody should pass judgement, but they have every right to to an opinion. Even a poorly worded one. Slight is the key word here...
Inforoo is still fun and very informative, most is a gross overstatement in my opinion. If some cannot take a dissenting opinion and accept that people do not agree with them then the internet must be a horrible place for them.
I always have and always will love this place. It will go on being a great place to talk about...anything. Thank you to all the members that make it that way.
I still find this place fun and informative. I like all of the different opinions as well. Sometimes people over step their boundaries and sometimes people fight. But I think it keeps this place interesting.
