- cracking insult!
Hey, look, I know I'm a relative newbie here, so I feel a bit awkward broaching the subject, but has anyone else noted how few new members join RI? Is that the way the concensus like it? Are new members intruding on a well established group of elders that have been there, seen it and heard it all? I honestly don't know.

I also think calling for BlueNoseClaret to be evicted is going overboard. He definitely holds and promotes some views and positions that could fairly be characterized as extreme, I don't think they're SO beyond the pale that outright banning is warranted.
I now sit back and wait for one of the board's hyperventilating correctness cops to comb through my entire posting history to dig up the fewhree "questionable" posts of mine that caused a bit of a ruckus a year or so back.
I kid, of course. They've probably have those posts dug up and ready to go for a while now!
Sincerely,
yer old pal Jerky

Reminds me the other day of some guy in a wheelchair trying to get up the steep hill I live on and I offered to give him a push up the hill. He got pissed at me and didn't want my help. I wasn't trying to help because he was incapable, just to ease his burden because we could share in the time spent. Being kind to some equates to being an asshole to another "some".

so the theory has gone that posting full length snips here with original link preserves the whole record, and in truth it has worked
it does, however, produce very long tedious pages of repeated text which is not very aesthetically pleasing
…
and as for the gender issue, how is it fair or right to berate a group of people who have turned up to a place voluntarily and chosen to stay and contribute for their perceived sexism? this is shadow boxing
lets stick to the actual issues rather than creating an issue
