Least favorite member?

[Rob]

Okay, on second thought I won't get into "least favorite" per se... but I will say who I disagree with the most: Opebo, of course. Mitty's liberal elitism makes him a close second, but I agree with him on at least some things. Jfern and Shira get honorable mentions for having the craziest left wing views.

[muon2]

Just to add, because I'm fairly new, I would say I disagree with opebo the most. However, I would definitely have a beer with him. If you push aside the politics, he is probably a very interesting person.

Hah, thanks old man!  Although having a beer with me here in Thailand would be far more interesting than having a beer with me in St. Louis.  Alas I must go home in just a few weeks.

When will you at last return to the States?

[Jake]

I'd be afraid opebo would attempt to rape me, though I bet he is a smallish, weak person. 

My least favorite forum member is Shira. Someone who doesn't contribute anything but spam.

Bump, because I'm bored as hell

I'm going to refrain from listing my least favorites until tomorrow.

This is a horrible thread to bump.

Maybe so. I thought it was interesting, though.

I won't say precisely, but in May.

Hah, are you a strapping lad?

AuH2O. I once described him as the "Republican CTGuy" and almost everyone agreed. And of course soulty for his comments to me awhile back.

[danwxman]

dazzleman, although he makes long well-thought out posts, they are filled with generalizations and stereotypes of Democrats -- which is exactly what he complains about liberals for doing. I've never seen a more contradictory person in my life.

Soulty was right

[migrendel]

I do not dislike anyone here. I find it impossible to judge with whom I have only interacted in the form of posts. There are a few people who have come across as unduly abrasive and resorted to personal remarks, but ultimately I would have to meet them to confirm my suspicions.

Foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of small minds...

Yeah, I can't stand that Alc.... oh..., Hi Alcon!

Alcon.

[dazzleman]

Alcon.

That's the best answer I've seen yet.

I think this thread is a bad idea, though I wouldn't shut it down.  It never pays to put negative personal opinions in writing, though I have done it once or twice.  Still, I've never done it and not regretted it.

I prefer to criticize opinions and ideas, not people.

Shut up dazzleman, you idiot.  I'm sick of hearing your well-reasoned views on everything.

I'm going to add you to my list of favorite members....

That Dave Leip fella. Always up to no good

[ian]

I kind of find this topic rude. I mean, it's just a boiling cauldron of insults and has no purpose but to insult people.

[??????????]

Dazzleman of course! He's a dirty liberal.

[Gabu]

I HATE ALCON SOOOOOOOOOO MUCH

Unless they're liberals.

Hey dude, watch what you say, before I come down there and lay out your rebel azz...

I have a pretty long list of favorite members, and there are only a couple that I don't like.  The only ones I don't like are those who make real personal attacks against me or even others, and the list of those is very short.  As far as my favorite ones, a few deserve honorable mention, with apologies to those left out because it's impossible to think of everybody at once:

-NickShepDEM - When he creates a topic, I know it will be interesting and well thought out.  No spam or garbage here.
-StatesRights - Forthrightly states what he believes, even when he knows most others won't agree with him, and never makes personal attacks as far as I can tell.
-Nation, Nym90, Gabu, Jake - Funny, interesting, friendly guys.  And there are plenty of others that I can mention when I have more time.

I also want to put in a positive mention of opebo.  I don't like most of his opinions, and he is the subject of a lot of well-deserved criticism for the positions he takes.  But he never makes personal attacks, and remains friendly with those who criticize his opinions.

That's right.  I always make exceptions for liberals.  I'm a very contradictory guy...

So thoughtful of you.

I don't think less of you for it as some might; you make fantastic posts, but dude, the sheer magnitude of your debate-related posts that contain the word "liberals" combined with some accusation is a bit odd, to say the least.   One would think that you're a closet liberal trying to hide it by overcompensating.
