    Default I don't like Private Messages

    I have explained this to marteen and others before. We all have our differences and we all have our opinions. Generally speaking, private messages hide personal agendas and are generally disruptive to a living, breathing and healthy message board. There are occasions when private messaging is appropriate. I don't think that whether or not marteen and I or anyone else disagree or recognize each other are any of them.

    I am sorry that some of you disagree. I can deal with that. I refuse to let your problems become my own.

    I am certainly willing to man up on my own decisions and opinions. Are you?

    If you don't like them, I'll be sending them to you every hour on the hour. Just to piss you off.

    After all, isn't that why you post here? To piss off the conservatives.

    I find that most communication should be out in the open, so that others can see your true feelings

    so for the most part i agree, but its fun to use the pm sometimes

    and as you're aware, i try to limit the pm's because i know you dont like them

    I know that, marteen, and I respect you for it. I wanted to open a conversation about this dilemma and the ptb misinterpreted the meaning and made a very rash decision, IMHO.

    Perhaps this is a place, although under a different mantra, to examine the concept.

    Thanks for all you do, marteen. You'll always be a Champion in my book of incredibly important DP posters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Can I get you an Ice Cold Bottled H20!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

    After Cheney/Bush I hope you were standing on a chair when you wrote that.

    You whine a lot. And you certainly should be fined or something for your overuse of smileys.

    I disagree, I dont see pb as a whiner.

    I see him as a deeply honest person.

    And i actually like the smilies to be honest

    On most forums I'm on, I only approve of private messages that are private conversational topics between the users.

    Such as...

    Hey, you said you live *insert state here*, what part?

    Hey, you said you went to *insert school*, what year?
    A little chaos never hurt anyone... in fact, it only helps rectify how you feel about things!
