don't let Key Lime Lee see that you posted the entire article.. I did that once and did he ever ball me out for doing so!!! I sure learned my lesson not to mess with the likes of him!

He did not ball you out. He stated facts and information, plain and simple. No emotion involved. If you learned your lesson, why are you doing the same thing?

Wanna be Rush, needs to Hush!!!

I'm not sure if he likes that group or not.. but he does sing well.

I am totally with you.... when he decided to "tell me off" for posting an entire article I had only posted for about a week.... I was still scared to death to say anything, and instead of posting a PM to me to explain the protocol of this system, he blasted me ..... I guess to show me how important he is... just like his profile says....

He did NOT "tell you off" or blast you. He suggested what you could do next time. And if he had PM'd you, others may not have seen the suggestion. Lee does not have an ego.. he did not post anything to show his 'importance'. And his profile is tongue in cheek. Humor. Sarcasm.

He will insult me again, most certainly, for having the courage to face him but unlike him, I do have a life besides this computer. And his words in NO way intimidate me.

He did not insult you. And know he will again? He pointed out factual information. And how exactly do you know he does NOT have a life besides this computer?? You know NOTHING of him. If his words do NOT intimdate you, then why are you seemingly defending your actions?

He always encourages freedom of speech.. well, I just spoke.

Yes. He does. And he'd be the first to say good for you for doing it. But he does not personally 'attack'.. he states facts, and his opinions.

And I think we could ALL be a little more kind. But in the 'real world' we don't always get what we want. Lee was not unkind. There was no emotion in his post. He did not slam her. He stated facts of what she could do next time. Being new is not necessarily a defense. If anyone has lurked a while (as most folks do) before posting, they should be able to understand how this places. Ignorance is not always a defense. Do you know for a fact what her intentions were? No. No one does but her. Uncalled for? In your opinion. His explanation did not have to be 'nice and fluffy'. It just needed to be stated.

KLL's article was excellent... my objections have only been towards his insulting nature towards others..... and towards me.

He did not insult you. He made a suggestion. And you you know nothing of his nature. It's kind, inteligent, and direct. If you take that as an insult? That is only yours and others interpretation.

If this gets me banned.... well... okay... I have a life other than this computer. KLL insults others constantly and no one speaks up... BUT, they do PM me to congratulate me because of my courage.
I am merely stating my own opinion.

Being banned from this site generally only happens when you attack people and call them names. (See "Announcements" area) Many people have 'spoken up' in the past. Where has he insulted anyone? We ALL have lives other than this computer. You're assuming we don't?? Courage? For what? Stating your opinion?

Limbaugh does the same thing... if you don't like him, don't listen... if you don't like what I have to say, don't read.

Lee is not Rush Limbaugh. Period. No more references need to be made.

I have done nothing but defended the under dog and gave you my opinion. Go back and read what he has said throughout his tenure

. Who is the underdog you defended here? Opinions are fine. We all should be able to state ours without attacking anyone.

What I said, took courage. Jimmy would be proud.

Honestly? Jimmy doesn't know you from millions of other people. Courage is what those in our military are facing every day. It doesn't take courage to state an opinion behind a computer.




Please, folks. Have some common sense here. There are so many times when someone posts something that the 'meaning' or the 'message' does not come across in type. No matter how many or someone may use. Yes, many of us are friends. Yes, many are new. Take a few deep breaths and relax. Life is short. This is not a perfect world and not all of it can be 'cotton candy'.

There are a lot of smart, well educated people on this board who make suggestions, state facts, and answer questions without using the smartass tone that KLL uses quite often. I haven't met Lee, but from what I have seen from many of his posts, I don't really care to . There are, however, many of you who I would love to meet based on the posts that you make on this site.

Well I have met KLL in Key West, and hopefully will meet(not meat) him again this year. Befor that I had only "spoke" in passing on the message board. But when we met he was very welcoming and friendly. He didn't care if he knew you or not, he treated you as a friend.

No I do not know what her intentions are, but I think it is a safe assumption to say that she was not plotting to plagiarize his work. I’m not saying that it should be “nice and fluffy” just not a smartass remark. That’s all.

I have yet to meet a person on the boards who is NOT a great person(save for 1, but I never talked to them in person, and they are no longer on the boards). KLL is one of my phavorites to be honest. He regularly talks to me, and is always funny, nice, and kind. Lee's one of the people I look forward to meeting sometime. Believe me, he in NO way is attacking ANYONE, and he is merely pointing out facts. He has a lot of expirence with technology, and because of that he knows a lot of the laws governing it. KLL was pointing somthing out that is a serious thing, in a freindly way. If it didnt come across freindly, it was by mistake.

I completely agree with the Queen on all she said. Nobody has intentionally insulted anyone else here, as far as Ive seen. So I think we all should just amount it up to a misunderstanding, put on a Jimmy CD, and start posting again.

This is hurting my brain...No thinking on Saturdays.

You are so right. I dont know KLL. He might be the nicest guy in the world! I am just going by how I interpret things i have read. It's all good.

I already got the buffett cd on!
