Ed Dolan and "Realities"
"Larry Varney" wrote in message ... snip This new subject line reflects the actual subject. I understand that you believe that subject lines should not ever be changed to reflect the actual subject, but until you become either the owner of the internet or at the very least the moderator of this particular news group, your belief will continue to be just that. It would be nice if you would label the new thread you just created as "Off Topic" or "O.T." so the unwitting will not think it's about Mr. Dolan and his new "Realities" bike computer. Some people get all upset if they think they have been duped into reading something O.T.. At least one even gets upset just because an off topic thread exists. Personally I think it is a good idea not to start O.T. threads willy nilly, but to attempt to keep them contained. As long as it's off topic I say let it stay stay where it is and don't multiply it. If anyone had the stamina to read this far into this BiGHA thread they probably are too word weary to complain if O.T. material pops in and out of the thread. But starting a new O.T. threads and not labeling it as such is certain to offend some readers. skip |

Edward Dolan wrote: (Scott) wrote in message . com... Larry, you are my hero! I love your, calm, mature, respectful response to the childish ranting of El Dolan. Ride well, amigo. Scott Would someone explain to me what my name is doing on this thread? I believe it was your "mature, respectful" Mr. Varney who is responsible for this outrage. Other than protesting the subject title of this thread I have declined to post anything here, but if I were to post I would have a few choice words to say about those who do this sort of thing. Ed Dolan - Minnesota A while back you lambasted me several times because I wasn't editing my responses enough to suit you. I think you used the phrase, "when are you going to learn..." and so on. So, I followed your advice. And while I was at it, I edited the subject line to reflect the topic. In this particular case, I was responding to one of your posts about "realities". And if I remember correctly, it had something to do with people being able to judge something they had no actual experience with, in particular being able to condemn a bicycle they have never seen nor ridden. You tossed in some stuff about children and "realities". This new subject line reflects the actual subject. Up to this point you make sense. Where you went astray was to use my name without my permission in the subject line for your new thread. It was not necessary and was done for spite. I guarantee you that I could use your name in a subject line for a thread in such a way that you would not be pleased. No one else does this sort of thing except in the spirit of banter. In case you didn't know it, you and I never banter. I understand that you believe that subject lines should not ever be changed to reflect the actual subject, but until you become either the owner of the internet or at the very least the moderator of this particular news group, your belief will continue to be just that. I have already posted my thoughts on this and we disagree about it. But it is my belief that those who do not know how to edit a post also do not know how to post a new subject line either. You proved it to me. Ed Dolan - Minnesota |
