I think the point you make here is very valid, thanks for bringing it up. It hadn't occured to me, for the simple reason that in Britain there would have been no medical bills to pay, as care would have been given under the National Health System.



Ok, I think we just have to agree that it was a major misunderstanding and some people took it differently than you may have intended.

Yes, there are a lot of diverse cultures and individual experiences to deal with on IW. This case is a perfect example of what I said earlier, we don't KNOW how another will take those zinger comments and sometimes it's just better to haul out the milk and cookies before you test the jalapenos.

SC, I really hope you understand that my comments were genuinely meant to make things better for all posters here at IW, yourself included. (and not in a patronising way!) I am sorry you had the misunderstanding with Hiram. I'm sure it's been stressful for you and I hope he comes back or answers his mails soon.

Cloudy

Yes, it does seem to have been a major misunderstanding, and I am very sorry indeed for that.

I hope he comes back soon also. If anyone knows his email address, please pm it to me.

Childish.. very childish. (AND you waste my time). I IP check all users.



Ziroc trust me I know both NWM and Aradia Well and they are 2 seperate people it happened at CRC two users in two seperate locations would get the same IP its what happens sometimes with Dial up access (or when users use public terminals and such).

I think you now owe Aradia, A FEMALe for starters (uhh trust me on this ive spoken to her on the Phone before too) an apology at the least.

Oh and Cloudy no need to welcome me as a newcomer ive been here under this name and before that Fonzie Forum Tyrant of MH for quite some time now even posted a few.

I am sorry Cloudy, but I do not have his email address.... If I find it however, I will immediately pass it on to Silver so she can send him a mail, I will also mail him myself if I find it.

I also believe it was a big misunderstanding and hope to see Hiram back soon.

I don't think so. They were the EXACT same IP addresses, and if I recall, they were 64.* IP's, which are reserved for CABLE modems..

Koth, please realize that we have had a lot of problems with people coming here and posting under more than one account under false pretenses. Not that I don't trust you, you know I do - but we have to make our decisions based on the facts that are available to us, hard-to-believe as they may seem.
