2023-04-10 Thread Doug

So what? Who cares how old you are?
This is supposed to be a technical forum, not a "how great Bill Johnson 
is and how great are his politics forum."

Why don't you try and keep it to that.
I am tired of your narcissistic, self centered ramblings.

Re: Not aging well (know-it-alls)

2023-04-10 Thread Chicklon, Thomas
A voice of reason Allan, thanks for saying what many of us are thinking.

I really miss the days when this was a moderated forum and the NOPOST setting 
would occasionally be used to keep things on track.

More noise than IBM mainframe discussion lately.

Hi Allan,

I and most of the rest on the list agree completely.  Here's a radical idea.  
How about when we see an inappropriate post, we just do 1 of 2 things - reply 
privately back to the offender telling them that this isn't the place and/or 
simply delete the post.  Don't give them the satisfaction of seeing you riled 
up.  If enough of us just ignored the garbage, eventually it will stop.

BillPlease get off the cross and stop telling everyone how great you are.  
The actual greats never have to convince everyone that their great.  Here's a 
word you need to embrace  is "HUMBLE"...try it some time.

Thanks,

Not vain at all. But, I’ve been tested for high IQ. 145. Also received state

I'm sorry if my messages have been bothersome to the group. I tend to 
get drawn into unproductive discussions, which is a personal flaw. From 
now on, I'll focus solely on technical discussions.

Re: Not aging well (know-it-alls)

2023-04-07 Thread Bob Bridges
I would guess that it's not a trend, just a blip - in the forum, I mean, though 
not necessarily in individuals.  I will agree that all humans are in the 
process of growing more like whatever it is we're becoming, a tautology that 
should scare some of us and reässure others.  Or as Rick Joyner says, "if you 
don't change your direction, you will end up where you are headed".  But while 
the tenor of conversation here will probably degrade markedly in my lifetime, I 
don't think that's what I see happening now.

See me in a year and maybe I'll have decided I was mistaken :).

I like this. It’s why I don’t care what listers think about me. I know my 
character is flawless. My reputation is one of challenging bullsh*t. Many don’t 
like to be challenged. I’m retired now. (Recent) It gives you a freedom you
