I have to ask you, where are you from? How old are you? Nine? If your posts weren't so devoid of anything resembling fact or logic they would be insulting, inflammatory and racist. As it is they are amusing. Go knock yourelf out wonderboy. You've got all the answers haven't you. You even know how I think! Wow!

[B]
You are welcome to hold any opinion you wish on my posts (and post it), BUT it would be nice if you could refrain from insulting me as that may be considered immature and offensive by some. Its also how people get upset and flames start. please Remember in future to criticise my OPINION'S, not me.

Kaz 10-21-2001 05:42 AM

But still, that was uncalled for. Yorick, I believe you should apologize...

Rikard 10-21-2001 05:50 AM

Uncalled for?
I would like to see to what Yorick replied this way

What I meant was, don't respond with flames even if you're being flamed at. I know it's hard, however please try, everybody. And Yorick's tone didn't seem as if he was being flamed at, only as if he was commenting on Dramnek's opinions.

With all due respect, I would suggest that you take your concerns to a Moderator rather than start a thread like this. Their e-mail addresses are in their profiles. All this sort of thread will do is inflame the situation. You might also consider deleting this thread pending a reply from the Moderator concerned.

Yorick can handle this http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...les/tongue.gif

and Dramnek, I am not siding with anyone, just let you know. take care

Kaz 10-21-2001 06:08 AM

Mouse, I assume Dramnek means to handle the situation quickly without the mods jumping in (trying to resolve conflicts on your own) I applaud this notion, as the mods are probably stressed enough right now. However, if the situation escalates, I strongly urge you to call them in.

Yorick, those responses *were* a bit out of line, mate, even though Dramnek may have been flamebaiting with his one-eyed views and provocative manner of posting. But namecalling never helps and only makes the situation worse. It's out of character for you to resort to namecalling, since you're normally the voice of reason and restraint! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

Just so that Yorick's comments can be put in context, this was Yorick's first post, discussing his reasons for his belief in God:

Quote:

Yorick's first post:<font size="1">
Ryanamur, don't you see your "belief" is a reaction. A rejection of another belief.
You should have proof that God does not exist, rather than relying on a lack of proof the he does.

My belief is based on conviction of my own views, rather than lack of belief in a case against Gods existence.

Yours is based on a lack of belief in the case for.

See what I mean?

This was Dramnek's comment to Yorick's post:

Here the burden of proof is being shifted. It is obvious from daily life(innocent chldren dieing, people suffering, "Natural evil" and the fragmentation of religion) that there is almost no evidence that a god exists. The evidence that a god does not exist is based on clear cut and logical evidence. The "evidence" that god exists is based on emotion with little grounding in the real world. There is already undeniable evidence god does not exist, its just that peoples emotions get in the way of thinking about it. Since Christians belive in this strange and illogical idea of some kind of human like figure that created us all, and all the evidence points to there being no god,then they should be the ones to prove a god exists.

Yorick then replied with his posts above. Understandable given Dramnek's inflammatory and flamebaiting post, but uncalled for, sorry mate! Kind of like a football player getting niggled on the football field all afternoon and finally throwing a punch that the referee then catches. Guess which player gets a yellow card? http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/frown.gif

why did you not do anything about this at the time of yoricks insulting posts, surely it is a part of a moderators job to stop abuse and insults like these?
