<p>Even though some TOS have been sort of violated I agree with plscatamacchia.</p>
<p>Experience:
Student01 tends to post in the many threads that I lurk and he really hasn’t contributed much to CC (nor have I, but intend to when it’s genuine and not just to inflate my post count). For plscatamacchia, I hate to sound like a fan boy, it’s the complete opposite. I’m sure there are others besides me that would agree.</p>
<p>I agree with Maxed out as well.</p>
<p>We live in America and I am all for people saying whatever they want on these forums, but at the same time if people are making irrelevant posts, it kind of defeats the purpose of these forums.</p>
<p>Student01:</p>
<p>This may be adding fuel to the fire, but why are you so defensive? I mean these are forums, and no offense, but if you get this riled up typing words onto a screen then I can’t imagine what you would be like when you get into a career and a co-worker or boss says something you don’t like. I am all for you asking questions. Most of the people on this forum are either in high school, attending college, or just graduated college and we are just trying to pass on the best information we know.</p>
<p>You are on these forums for advice. My advice to you is that you need to work on your attitude when you hear something you don’t like. Standing up for yourself is one thing, but you throwing out words like “harassment” in a situation like this is childish at best.</p>
<p>Thanks for the kind words Maxed.</p>
<p>student01:You “also” like to “use” quotation “marks” unnecessarily.</p>
<p>Am I the only one who’s getting riled up here, or whatever you want to call it? lol… it’s clear from his posts that the intent is not to inform. as far as i know, i’ve constantly resisted the temptation to insult plscatamacchia, despite pretty much everything he’s said. now you keep saying that i dont know much because i am young, but i know that is showing more maturity.</p>
<p>You are acting like there has been some on going feud between us since I started posting here. Occasionally I see one of your posts and feel the need to point out its irrelevance. Not only are you consistently wrong, but you are sometimes just plain negative, for no reason. </p>
<p>You are NOTHING to me, so please, get the idea that I am hunting for your posts out of your head, kid. It really is kind of freaking me out. If you’re going to say that I am “constantly” insulting you, give me some examples. </p>
<p>And yes, you are the only one getting riled up. You are in fact the “mature” kid who tattled.</p>
<p>EDIT: I looked through the first 5 pages of my post. There were (excluding this) 4 directed at you. 2 of them were reiterating what others were saying: You were posting thread after thread about how much people earn and it was annoying. Another was after you said “At least in Finance you have no risk of losing assets” and I responded that you had no clue what you were talking about. Why? Because you didn’t. You were wrong and I told you. How that is harassment I don’t know, so please explain.</p>
<p>If I am nothing to you, then don’t reply to this post. And then it’ll be cool 
You’ve already got 2 guys backing you up, why do you even feel the smallest desire to overdo it?</p>
<p>And by saying that I “tattled,” clearly you’ve acknowledged that you’ve done something wrong. But would rather continuously expound on the wrongs of someone else. Go home a hero.</p>
<p>
I think that’s true</p>
<p>EDIT:
Relax. You aren’t going to change anybody by anonymously insulting them.</p>
<p>Just because you mean nothing to me doesn’t mean I’m going to let you try to [INSULT ME]**.</p>
<p>**Edited for student01’s young eyes</p>
<p>I expanded my search to 10 pages. After those first 4 posts there were no more. </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>If you want to put words in my mouth, by all means, go ahead. It just backs up the fact that you’re little more than a kid with a computer. Who just wants to beef up his post count and got called out for it. I did nothing wrong. I made that clear by telling you that I went through 10 pages of posts and 4 were directed at you. None were mean, perhaps I was being a smart ass in a couple, but HARASSMENT? No. I would really like you to point out where I harassed you. I don’t think you’ll find anything. Like I just said, I noticed that often times you were unhelpful and sometimes irrelevant and it was annoying. </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>What do you mean, I was giving you helpful advice?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I’m glad you agree and by extension realize all of your misnomers.
Go tattle to the moderators. They may delete a few posts on this thread and maybe even save your reputation. if you expect to get plscatamacchia in trouble good luck because you’ll find that a bit challenging</p>
<p>
whoa… man if you think i’m doing this just to make an ass of you, then i think you need some perspective. riled up, much?</p>
<p>
So, what have you accomplished all along from proving you’re “right?”</p>
<p>allow me to sum it up here:
</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Find out where I violated the TOS and come back.</p>
<p>I wasn’t insulting you. I was just telling you that the number of posts you were making about salaries was annoying.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Putting words in my mouth again. I said you were trying to make an ass out of me, I didn’t say that was your only objective. You say don’t respond and end your post “Go home a hero.” That’s not trying to make me look like an [EXPLETIVE DELETED]**?</p>
<p>**EDITED FOR student01s young eyes.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I think you need some basic Eng. Comp classes.</p>
<p>plscatamacchia, i’m so sorry this thread is already ruining your career. i really didn’t mean to “make an ass of you (anonymous)” online. i didn’t know it would come to this</p>
<p>What are you talking about, ruining my career? I mean seriously, RUINING MY CAREER?! What does that have to do with ANYTHING? I’m not sitting here red in the face because of your pathetic attempts at an insult. I was just stating (using the word ass) that you were TRYING to insult me. You could replace “to insult me” with “make an [EXPLETIVE DELETED] out of me”. Would you like me to go back and change it or would you rather keep hanging on the fact that I used the word [EXPLETIVE DELETED]?</p>
<p>EDIT: Phrase and word “ass” removed to prevent further confusing comments from student01.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>What has it come to? You making ridiculous comments?</p>
<p>i apologize, sandra, for making your thread turn out like this :(</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>One of them is your age. As far as representing my age group you must be an outlier.</p>
<p>You know the funny thing is on another forum (POTN - photographers forum) I was in the same position as you after I said a few immature things (I was 16 then). I made an inappropriate joke and took some heat from my elders which included getting fish slapped (dont ask). You know what happened next? I didn’t argue back or continue to post sarcastic remarks like this:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>What I did was write a long apology and they immediately accepted it. I gained their respect instantly. I matured the most then. I saved my own ass. And my enemies became my mentors who shaped me into I am now.</p>
<p>Yeah heartfelt story right? The moral can’t be more obvious…</p>
<p>I have one person i need to apologize to, and regain respect from, and that is sandra.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I hope that this becomes a sticky in the HS forum. I’ve checked it out and while there may be a few members who may be more immature than you, at least they’re smart enough to post in the correct forum.</p>
<p>'nuff said. Seriously I think this thread is embarrassing enough</p>
<p>thanks for quoting my apology as a springboard to your argument</p>
<p>Let’s accept one thing and move on:</p>
<p>We’re all insomniacs.</p>
<p>
I’m actually fine with that…</p>
