OK, you don't seem to understand this, but people can be friendly and get along without really liking each other. They also can get along during the initial time period where they are still getting to know each other...that is why I was cool with you...you had not irritated me enough...YET! Now I have got sick of it...it really is that simple...can't believe a self proclaimed intelligent person like you can't figure that out!
I would like to be associated with Knudlen and DMac...so put me in their category! Actually...I AM associated with DMac! I chat with him in multiple forums...non public forums!
FYI...this is what I said originally...NONE of it twisted...

Also I am going to give you a piece of advice...bitching about all of the little things that are screwed up with the game and blaming everything that goes wrong on the game is not going to earn you any brownie points with the other agents in your league...calling people immature and foolish also will not help you in those areas. You act like your team has to play by a different set of rules than the rest of the teams and you get screwed by it...and you can't just go all out and do the best and take it for what it is...a game. We both got our teams in the same season and I have seen a LOT of bitching from you about this and that and people cheating and such and it gets old.
Here is another piece of advice...read your own last paragraph...it pertains to you too!Was I the most polite...no...was any of it un-true...no! Calling people Immature and foolish will not help you earn their respect...this is not a lie! Did you care if you had their respect? Likely not I assume...but that is an assumption still and I don't know it...at least I can admit that!
And you responded with this...

I don't know what crawled up inside you and prompted this little outburst, but I suggest that you learn what you're talking about before you start running your mouth. No, I tend not to get along with adolescent jerks like Dmac and knudlen who try to publicly humiliate other owners in a pretty transparent attempt to make themselves feel better. If you'll remember, that's where Dmac and I got off on the wrong foot in CBBB4, after I took exception to him mocking another owner in the forums for bad builds when that guy hadn't done anything to deserve ridicule. And now knudlen is getting similar treatment because that fourteen year old is trying to pretend like he's a GLB god to whom all should bow down in obeisance (look it up if you don't know what that means). Kids generally get along with kids and adults generally get along with adults. Personally I have no tolerance for the former.
So while you give me advice on how to fit in with the teenage braggarts who inundate this forum with their "omg," "lol," and "mang" gibberish, maybe I can return the favor by letting you know how I've gotten along with the actual adults who play this game. To start with, I'm all for good-natured smack talk, but I never talk shit about another team or their players. Then, because this is a game and I act like an adult instead of some idiot child who has to tell everyone on Xbox Live how they "just got pwned!," I've tried to offer answers and advice to anyone in my leagues who had questions about the game. Last season I helped several teams that were in our conference simply because I put more value on them having fun and being competitive than how much we could beat them by. And for the record, maybe my Western Europe leagues have just been fortunate enough to have a higher average age, but there we've always been secure enough that we could discuss our thoughts about GLB, including complaints about changes to the sim. What you term "whining" is something at least those adults have seen as topics of conversation. By all means, please forgive me for thinking that this league was capable of the same maturity.How can those items in bold not be considered attacks? You offered advice to others and then I offered advice to you...wasn't an attack it was the truth.
In the heat of the moment after that I incorrectly remembered some stuff and went back, re read it, and corrected myself...but you are always in the middle of it...so I can see how I confused myself there! I placed some apologies in there and they went completely ignored.
These are the things that keep me from believing your self proclaimed "intelligence". You keep preaching it but you have not been able to understand a word I type. You keep bringing up the same things over and over and keep regurgitating them with different words. That is not intelligence that is wit.
So here is the part now where you come on here and call yourself intelligent. This is the part where you say I am stressed in my personal life and that is the only reason I could be upset with you. This is the part where you tell me how I am embarrassing myself and telling me I need to get a grip because I am obviously having a moment of weakness. This is the part where you call me a liar because I can't believe your self proposed intelligence.
There, that paragraph just summed up your last 5 posts for the people who need short stories (This is for you Kapone
)
