And LS, just so that you know, Mage1 did at one point make a statement that several members noted as inteligent...I give you the all wise Mage1:<p><blockquote><i> Originally posted by Mage1 here.</i><br>Improving takes a long time... <br>Learn from your mistakes... <br></blockquote><p>There is a link next to Mage1's name, but the quote background color is the same as the link, so it is masked.<p>[size=small][Edit by Gipper on [TIME]1113526873[/TIME]][/size]

No. Why should I apologise to a kid that has acted like a total idiot throughout his time here on this MB?<p>It's his own fault for being despised here. He should've used common-sense before posting his messages, but does he even bother? No.<p><p>[size=small][Edit by ThePeaGuy on [TIME]1113577415[/TIME]][/size]

Fine then...see how you like it...and try spelling words right...it's apologi<i>z</i>e, not apologi<i>s</i>e.<p>Everyone ignore Peaguy from now on.

Sorry to stir stuff up, but "apologize" is the American spelling, and ThePeaGuy is English, like myself. ^_^;;

Because we all know Americans don't speak English. I am speaking in French right now, right?

Well, if you want to get technical, American English is just an older version of English. A few hundred years ago in England they would have written "recognize" and "armor" etc, and since the English that became Americans and the English that stayed here parted ways, the English language changed dramatically. American English kept the original spellings. Now in England (and for ages passed) it's written "recognise" and "armour".<p>I know this because of all the foreign students I've met that have learnt English through American teachers who have told them this, in preparation for them being shocked at discovering two different sets of spelling the same language, not to mention the two different sets of slang.

It's true. In the UK, people use "s" where a lot of us yanks use "z" in words.<br>Spelling differences aside, Gipper is right on about Mage 1.<p>People are HUMAN. They make mistakes. Don't hurt a person's feelings and tear them down, TALK to them.<p>Pea Guy, how would you feel, if you posted something innocently enough, and everyone ganged up on you, thinking you were an 'idiot" and "stupid"? Words hurt. You'd feel pretty bad, wouldn't you? <p>Can you imagine how Mage 1 is feeling right now? I've repeatedly asked over and over what he did to deserve such treatment, and NOBODY has given me an answer.

Yes, and I'd just like to add that by pointing out that ThePeaGuy hadn't spelt it wrong I wasn't taking sides. I just didn't want another person to picked on for a silly reason. ^_^<p>Make love, not war! Or flames!

Zubon, you should realize that over 90% of what Gipper says is sarcasm anyway so we're beyond the point of taking him seriously. That is why it's written in his sig.<p>Starlight, you want an answer? Check your PM again.

Mage1 is a moron, but has posted hardly anything which I felt was "intelligent".<p>Retardation was ended with the "bored" thread, or at least it should have been.

<blockquote><i>Originally posted by Malakai</i><p>Zubon, you should realize that over 90% of what Gipper says is sarcasm anyway so we're beyond the point of taking him seriously. That is why it's written in his sig.<p></blockquote><p>Oh we are now are we? For your information, a------, I was NOT being sarcastic in this instance. I suppose since everyone seems so mad that you target Mage1, you are going after me instead? If we are fooling around and jokingly saying stuff about people and they don't mind, that's ok. But <i><b>no one wants to be repeatedly insulted over and over again the way you are going after Mage1.</b></i> It is ridiculously unfair. As I have said to many people before, <blockquote>if you don't like it, ignore it or leave.</blockquote> No one is forcing you to read what Mage1 posts, and if you don't like it, scroll over it.
