And as far as THIS goes . . . Hobbit, HOW was WE supposed to know he was your friend? I honestly got ticked off too that you called him a retard. Friend or not, this is NOT the place to joke around like that. Shreder is right when he says you need to build people up here, even if he IS your wing. If you feel like that's how you need to treat your friends by name calling . . . do it else where. Not here, because it's not appreciated by others.

This coming from the wife of a guy who I watch alienate lots of people, with far harsher criticism. And you, who seems to like to judge people before knowing them. And don't take this as an attack, because I could personally care less about being judged on a forum. I have an abrasive personality (Much like your husband) and you seem to get along with him without critiquing his posts.
Hmmmm. You watch me alienate lots of people? Obviously you don't pay attention and see the people that are thankful for what I do either. To be truthful, yes, I alienate people, but those people tend to be the trouble makers anyway. The ones that end up getting banned in the end, anyway. Yes, I'm harsh, when I NEED to be. I'm also truthful with people about what they may need to change. THAT isn't harsh. That comes out of caring for them. Obviously I'm not perfect, but when I get direct requests from people that ask me for my advice specifically, because they KNOW I won't hold back and that's why they come to me . . .
At the same time, however, I don't come across abrasive UNLESS it's warranted. There are plenty of posts where I'm not abrasive at all. Maybe you should take a lesson for yourself?
It's good that you don't care about being judged on an internet forum, but the fact is, how you are on here, is most likely how you are in real life as well. If it works for you fine, but my bet is you have issues there too, and maybe you're afraid to look in the mirror.
This is the first time I can recall coming at you on this forum. Sadly, you've made me eat my words, because I actually defended you to my wife before this. I had no issues with you before.
