What's up, Reg, can't remember your day to day activities? There are three posts submitted by you in the TREKKER V JASON tread. You weighed in twice to support the credibility of Trekker.

And what does the word "everyone" in the following sentence of that post mean, jizz?

I never said he contributed in a positive way, just that his posts are vastly more entertaining than those of about 99% of the people who come here. The alternative is reading about Jason Reardone's latest trip or about what everybody named their cats. Frankly, I'd rather read old soup can labels.

 

Reg loves winding people up, and he is very, very good at it. Some of the escorts and others who come here like to hide behind these annoying smiley-face personas that they create, and Reg likes to make them put down the masks and show what's really there. It's been a while since he had a victim as juicy as you, though. He must be off resting someplace after such a big meal.

Reg,

 

I think the regulars acquit themselves quite well overall and appreciate their comments.

 

"I don't think that's quite fair to the people I mentioned who have stuck it out, do you? ... They don't lose control and resort to hate speech when challenged but conduct themselves in a mature and levelheaded manner."

 

However, not mentioning names, I do recall even some of these guys loosing their cool on occasion and making questionable comments (as I have done too). But they had a good track record established (and they are genuinely liked) and people, it seemed to me, were reluctant to dissect the comments and pick apart the escort, and rightly so, I think. Under similar circumstances I don't think newbies would have fared as well.

 

We are all too human and therefore imperfect and thus IMHO it is not unreasonable to cut some slack to someone until they have established a track record of intentional ill behavior. We all make mistakes and when 'called on the carpet' for it we sometimes do not show our best side under fire. While a data point, that shouldn't be taken as the definitive characterization of us as individuals, I think.

every + one = ???

 

jeez, every + one = everyone.

 

did theron make an assumption about the deciding-about-fun activities of every+one which differs from your assumption?

Hi :-)

 

I am sorry to learn that you find this entertaining.

>soup can labels.

 

This board is like a blank page. It can be anything people want it to be, and allow it to be. My sggestion, if you are bored with the posts, rather than seek entertainment in the actions of someone who tries to tear others down, help change the direction to make the board more interesting in positive ways.

And those are the exact qualities, that many will agree, cause him to appear mean spirited. They are also the same qualities that erode the very credibility that seems to be important to him. I think most will agree, reasonable and well adjusted people do not find pleasure in intentionally antagonizing others for the sport of it, and that is the complete basis for my objection to Regulation's behavior.

 

It's really very basic, we all have good qualities, and we all also have bad qualities. Intentioally pushing someone to frustrate them until they will show you their worst side isn't lifting a mask and exposing a persn for who the really are. In life we get an opportunity, in our exchanges with people, to try and bring out the best in others, or to attempt to tear them down. There really is no special skill required to tear another person down -- even a child knows how to antagonize and bully others. The real skill, and class, has always been how to influence the lives of others in positive ways.

 

I will tell you something I learned a long time ago. We are all connected in the circle of life and love. Every person you meet has something good they can give to you, and you have something positive that you can give to everyone you encounter. When we elevate ourselves above others, and try to tear them down, we cut ourself out of the circle of life, and in doing so depress our own life. Suddenly, I feel inner sadness for Regulation.

 

That said, I now know how I plan to handle Regulation in the future. So please notice the time and date of this message, and not the sequence of it.

 

Hugs,

I'm surprised to find there is anyone who finds anything compelling about 99% of these threads. They have denigrated into wordy, pseudo-intellectual posting by, frankly, very boring individuals, escorts and posters alike. On one hand we have the group that gets some kind of sexual release from arguing every point, semantic, theory, whatever, at all costs. They're pretty sad individuals. And then the idiotic posters who think everything they have to say is a pearl of wisdom. They simply must have post on every single point made or not made - they're that in love with themselves. I used to come here much more frequently under a different name - now, I find it necessary to only check in weekly or so, hoping to see some of the regulars have "passed on." No such luck.

>I am sorry to learn that

I haven't been visiting this site as long as some, but I can't help noticing that the most controversial threads get by far the largest number of posts and the largest number of views. The threads in which people are patting each other on the back don't even come close. So I'm not alone in my feelings.

I doubt he cares what anyone here thinks of him. No real reason why he should.

If what you are saying were true "Seinfeld" would have been canceled after the first episode.

In my world, which I suspect is the same as his, the skill he has is sought after.

I come to this site for its entertainment value. If I were looking for moral instruction a site about gay escorts would not be one of the places I would choose. But to each his own as they say.

I suggest you take the advice that a few other posters have been giving you. It's good advice.

Jizz, do you have any old soup can labels? If you do please post pictures.

Hi :-)

 

Thanks for taking the time to respond. Even though we have vastly different opinions on this subject, I appreciated reading more about it from your perspective.

Now that's entertainment! Don't be such a stranger.
