It really is this simple.....

[Tedlark]

  I've known several people in my life who have been treated for kidney stones and not one of them has cried so much about them as you have. Including the women I know who have had them...   If you don't like the fact that I make light of your kidney stones that's tough, you were the one who brought them up here in the open forum. Looking for sympathy? You can find it in the dictionary...

So stop playing at CET properties in Atlantic city and go to Borgata.  Say it ain't so! My first Royal, in a mere year of light playing, was last week at an AC CET. While there is no doubt validity to your claim, emotionally it is tough to hear and process.

Looking for sympathy? You can find it in the dictionary...Hey Ted, you are completely off the charts in terms of simple Hatred, bitterness, spite, and total desperation.I've exposed you for what you are (well actually you did it to yourself.)  So now you are simply lashing out in an attempt to inflict ANYTHING upon me.......needless to say, this latest post quoted above makes me feel triumphant because it shows I have won, you just exposed to the world just how rotten you really are.   I love it!   I also think you are lying about knowing several people who were treated for kidney stones, because what you wrote is total BS.   Aside from the fact that I have NOT "cried " about them (I simply mentioned them a couple times to explain my absence during one stretch, and another time about how the affected one of my AC trips.    I defy you to show me where and how I was "Crying and carrying on" in the manner you insinuate.    And your point about "Women" not complaining also shows that you most certainly are making this up......A common piece of knowledge for people who know anything about Kidney stones is that "it is the closest thing a male can experience to childbirth".....also Women are KNOWN to have generally higher pain thresholds than men.Still, ask any Doctor and they will tell you that Kidney stones are universally one of the worst pains a person can experience (maybe thrid degree burns trump kidney stones, but not much else.)HAving said that, why would you ever say the things you said to me in this post (or say them to anyone for that matter?)   How can you make light of a person's pain and suffering?    I have done NOTHING here to warrant or deserve this.     I mean, let's read again your words and determine the intent, spirit and tone of your post:"If you don't like the fact that I make light of your kidney stones
that's tough, you were the one who brought them up here in the open
forum. Looking for sympathy? You can find it in the dictionary..."   wow....I mean, WOW!I cannot thank you enough though, because ANY decent and intelligent person reading this will draw the conclusion ABOUT you and what you are that I already described.  If I were you I'd just stay away for awhile and HOPE.....HOPE people forget about this, but if you keep this up, they will not.     And get some help for yourself.......

DB, i think most medical professionals would tell one not to pick at an itch or a sore. it just agravates the problem. maybe, if something or someone is acting like a 'sore' to you, the best thing is just not to respond. the agravation might just go away on it's own.

  DaBurglar you were the one who mentioned kidney stones and your issues with them. In fact, you mentioned them more than once. My advice to you would be not to post issues such as this in an open forum.   You cannot accept the fact that someone posts an opposing viewpoint of whatever you write and when they do, you lash out at them.    Notes1 I have no problem with you and I'm not going anywhere. Scratch that if you like.

. . . I just want him to stop this BS and for someone to simply say "hey that is NOT ok", what he posted.

Simply, it is NOT okay what he posts.

It's called bullying. Verbal harassment is the most common form of bullying and that's what it is. Period.
Insecure playground bullies devolve into adult bullies.

DaBurglar, I suggest simply ignoring this person and his posts.

I will say that on other forums in which I participate, the Moderators are usually very good at suspending or banning members who engage in this repetitive attacking and bullying of other members.
In the alternative, JUST IGNORE.

  So DougJ I am the bully? I wasn't a playground bully and I'm not one here. Not really insecure so much either...

[Tedlark]

Bringing up counterpoints or having a differing opinion on something is not bullying. He didn't nail anything.

Oops, did I respond too quickly?
