    it will be ok... us humans have been using and understanding deprecation as a social tool for a while now. It's just a bit of fun and those who intend to offend are going to do it regardless... it's the nature of the int0rW3bs.

    Knock yourself out and have a blast Arse. I'm pretty sure that I never told anyone to stop. I just voiced my own opinion on it, and more or less said I wouldn't be adding to the trolling in this forum. If that's your thing, go for it, but it's not mine.

    Thank you for the apology. I'm guessing that nobody, including me, would say you that really needed to. I know YOU weren't trying to offend anyone, and as far as I know you didn't. I'm not offended, but I know that eventually someone or many someones probably would be. As you said, "The Others Started", and that's exactly my point really. As long as people kept going....it would get much, muCH, MUCH, worse. I just hate to see that happen. People would get pissed, flame wars would begin, and this would be like so many other forums out there, instead of the respectful, polite forum that I've bragged about to my friends. I love chatting in this forum, but if it means adding to its degradation..I don't want any part of it. If that means I'm alone on that..so be it. I'll just find other places to chat since that's probably what people in a forum like that would rather I did anyways.

    c'mon Rook... I think that considering the history of the forum and members we deserve a little more credit for being able to keep things civil. IMO, the beauty of this forum/group is that there is no need to question other's intentions.

    My conversation with you on this subject is over...if you want to continue to fan the fire...you'll have to find someone else to do it with.

    Anyone else having trouble with their Text+ app?? It's saying our community doesn't exist anymore. Sure hope I wasn't somehow given the boot because of all this crap in here.
    **edit** Fortunately it must have been a server error because it's working fine now.
