Hey, in case you didn't catch it in the other thread and you're still lurking here, I hope you read this. It was part of my response in the thread that instigated this. I mean every last bit of it.

    eightbitsamurai, you're a truly awesome dude and you bring a lot to this site. Be here to have fun, be here to teach and to learn, to interact with others and share what you have to offer and feel free to leave it at that. You don't have to let this site become your personal chore, a part of your daily grind. Sometimes it's okay to just step away for a bit. It sucks that minimum_wage left and I barely knew her. I do know you though and enjoy what you have to share and I can honestly say that even though I've known you for like a month, personally it would suck 10 times more to see you leave too.

If you come back, under this name or something else, let me know. I'll gladly follow you again in a heartbeat. I know things can be difficult sometimes, but you're a great guy and no matter what, I hope you all the best.

What thread instigated this?

That was, umm... painful, I guess. I ignore a lot online because I'm online a lot but 8bit was apparently done ignoring.

Has the post really been deleted or am I mega-blocked? It's just, I assumed the latter but now your hubCard says it was deleted and I don't know if that's a clever feature to hide my block, or actually true.

If deleted then I have slightly more respect for the user

I'm pretty sure it was deleted. It says so for me and I have nothing to do with this.

In a positively crazy twist of fate (is this the season finale or something?) it appears both may be true, but neither are perfectly coded.

Oooh, what did you do _refugee_? What did you do?!

Go to tng's embedded comment hubCard linked in this thread then hit "parent" til you can read the whole thread.

I am not saying it all was nice but I am saying, I know analysis and I know metaphor and I can dissect an argument.

Ha. That's a fun bug.
