Name Calling on the Forums
Posted: Wed Jan 10, 2007 1:42 pm
Here I am at the soapbox because a member on here William, made a quote that I feel I need to address. High Side a Moderator had read William’s quote and since it is still on here a day later then I have to follow up. High Side did lock down the topic (thanks High Side) and that is why I chose to address William’s quote in the Soap Box Forum.
I made the following quote;

"I get to rattle your cage, read your corresponding post and then sit back and have a good laugh at your expense. Just jerking your chain or should I say shaft drive.”
Which I admit was a lame attempt at humor as it applied to William discussing the merits of the shaft drive on his Honda ST1300 over that of chain drive motorcycles from an earlier quote.
Then William made the following quote;

“You didn't exactly rattle my chain, all I did is respond to your nonsense. And you laughing isn't exactly at my "expense". It costs me absolutely nothing to post here. There's no expense involved. I don't really care what you think, and what you think doesn't cause me any harm or cost me anything at all”... and then William went on to quote,
“Okay, jerk my shaft. Maybe I'll have an fun and then you can swallow it, I'm sure you are queer and want to...”
Looks like William wants me to join him in a Homosexual act.
No William I’m heterosexual, I like women, always have always will.
And William, I’m not knocking your gay lifestyle, it’s your choice, it’s a free country and since you choose to be a homosexual then I respect that.
I only ask that you respect the fact that I’m straight and not proposition me anymore.
There are probably other forums on the internet that would suit you better in that regard. This is after all a motorcycle forum.
And William, it would be appreciated if you would refrain from name calling in the future. Thank you.
