crotchitymedic1986 Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 thank you crapmagnet, I apppreciate the compliment more than you know, especially since they are so rare.
NYCEMS9115 Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 Then if that is the rule? Then we need to re-read the rules of the forum. If we can talk about one another in this way, then this forum is out of order. I thought this was EMT City? Not Facebook or Twitter; facebook or twitter would be a better outlet. You can gossip, poke, tag, etc. on it. This is what this thread is. I don't know anyone here; we are suppose to be professional. I guess EMS Providers are not professionals, if we can insult one another in this way. Disagree is fine but disrespect is not. All the best...
HERBIE1 Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Inflammatory is not the same as libelous or slanderous. I see nothing here that even remotely rises to that level.
crotchitymedic1986 Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 thats probably cause they are not talking about you. 1
DwayneEMTP Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 (edited) Ok, tell me that I'm not the only one that sees the humor in someone named Crotchity being defended by someone named CrapMagnet? Funny, right? I wish we would ban the use of the term 'ban.' Unless he's following people around being bullyish, then he gets his opinion, in my opinion. At times my opinions have varied a bit...Like that time I got food poisoning on....what's that called? Oh yeah, Tequila, and then spent half the night posting a bunch of shit even I couldn't stand to read the next day. Now, on the other hand. I think that there was two or three other times that I took the opposing stance from Richard, Mike, and Mobey, absolutely confident in my ultimate 'rightness' and ended up being an even bigger dumbass than usual. So in this thread I'm holding out the possibility of other names in the past, or even, based on some of his opinions, that Crotchity may be an alien living amongst us. (Poking fun only) Does he piss me off? Oh yeah, because he most often refuses, where I am concerned, to address the questions that I believe cast doubt upon his theories or opinions. But until he begins to 'flood' the forums, or until he begins to stalk specific users, or until he posts, and no one responds (Yeah, right!) then I welcome his posts the same as any other. Because my liberal heart bleeds for him? Oh no. Because today we ban him for being irritating, tomorrow you ban me for saying fuck, and next week we ban Mobey or Mike for checking folks on their spelling because the City is "jst a plac to hang an chil." No way man...some really good folks have spent a lot of time trying to make this a place where even raunchy ol' broads like CrapMagnet feel welcome...Oh hell...was that slanderous? Yeah, well, fucking ban me. (See, all sorts of badness in that sentence, the worst of which is the word ban, in my opinion.) You know what really pisses me off though? 9115 basically saying, "fuck you all!" in his post and then ending it with 'All the best..." C'mon man...be pissed, don't be pissed, but don't be pissed and then pretend that God can't see you if you make nice in the last sentence. Get in and get dirty brother! No blood no foul... See, this thread isn't a total waste after all! I think that I've show that we can in fact all get along...if everyone will just do what I tell them. Is that so much to ask? Dwayne thats probably cause they are not talking about you. See! Right there...funny as hell. We'd have missed that.... Just sayin'...

paramedicmike Posted April 3, 2011 Author Posted April 3, 2011 I really don't care if he stays or leaves. I simply asked the questions in the OP because I was genuinely interested. Crotchity is amazingly inconsistent. Sometimes he's way off the deep end. Sometimes, he actually makes positive contributions to a discussion. I find that intriguing for some reason. From strictly an observer's viewpoint, the inconsistency and varied extremes are enough to make me wonder just how stable he really is. Who knows? He may be completely stable in real life. It's sometimes hard to tell given the one dimensional presentation on a discussion board. At the same time, there's enough in his posts to make me think that he's been here before under a different screen name... even if he denies it. And just because Admin says that the IP address doesn't match the address of another specific user doesn't mean anything. Simple questions, really. And nothing more. No hidden meanings. No hidden agenda. No attempt from me, at least, to make the guy look bad. Hell, I'd even buy the beer if I had the opportunity to sit down with him for an hour or two. That being said, if people want to read into things and find hidden meanings behind the questions that aren't really there then I can't help that.
Chief1C Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Wait. Him? He? His? I swear there was a there. No? Hrmm... I'm recovering from a spur of the moment drinking binge that started after a confrontation at 11am. I always wondered why anyone would go into a bar, before noon. Now I know why. Nobody can leave. Nobody, of use, anyway. I love you guys, in a totally non-clingy, non-gay (not that there's anything wrong with that) way. You're like Hustler with out the porn, entertaining and educational. 1
NYCEMS9115 Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 I'll give into the "sticks and stones my break my bones but words will never hurt me" saying. It is what it is. All the best.
Kaisu Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 some really good folks have spent a lot of time trying to make this a place where even raunchy ol' broads like CrapMagnet feel welcome... LOL... love you man... always have.. always will...
