    Yeah. You're right JD.

    TE, lighten up. Nobody's slandering anybody. If you're upset because CB66 inferred that you were racist or called you an embarassment to LSU or said that people who support vouchers are worthless, who cares? Why do you care what he thinks? He did the same thing to me, and I certainly don't care. I am secure in the knowledge that he does not know me, or a dang thing about me, and I'm sad he has to resort to shrill racial rhetoric and painting people with the broad "R" brush than actually having a real debate. But I'm not losing any sleep over it. People like him aren't worth worrying about anyway.

    Besides, slander is spoken. In print, on a computer screen, it's libel. Just thought I'd be cute and make that distinction.

    Is that what these complaints are about?
    come on TE - shall I count the times i've been called a commie on message boards?
    We can all tone it down a little - just say so - enough with this slander (and you're right, jet, libel is closer)

    I would point to the simple fact that the daisy chains that included me inside those chains halted immediately...

    I asked, and I even warned that I would ask him one more time, before I sought other means to silence his outright lies and misconstrued and misguided missives about me and my character. Amazingly, when the bullet hit the bone on that one, the bullsh!t stopped, which is all I wanted in the first place. It's a shame I have to act an ass to get him to simply act in a civil manner and to have him halt with the ridiculous accusations.

    It's also amazing that after all of the pleas, honest and frank please at that, for him to at least answer direct questions and simply have a normal conversation, the only way I could find that stopped the unwanted behavior was a threat of that nature. I'm glad he stopped, hell, I'm glad he laughed about it. But mostly, I'm glad he finally ceased his mindless and warbling ramblings.

    The PROMISE (never a threat) still stands, as I will not stand ANYONE misconstruing my words against me...

    He has been, was, and remains forewarned. As does anyone else who ignores a direct question, then misconstrues facts about me to paint me as a Nazi Sympathizer, Duke apologist, or mentions me in any way with any of those ideals...

    Sorry if you don't like it...tough cookies.

    By the way

    BTW---
    Slander is when it is spoken.
    Libel is when it is printed.

    Libel is what anything on this board would be, since it is obviously printed and not spoken aloud.

    Legally, it only has to be seen by the libeler, the libelee and a third party. So, if whoever TigerEducated is referring to did make false accusations and at least three have seen it, he could bring charges. Whether they would actually hold up in court is questionable.

    Media law was actually useful!

    PS- I didn't read all the threads, if someone already addressed this, I apologize.

    Man am I tempted to just delete this entire absurd thread. I don't know what in the hell when on and frankly I don't care. Luckily, though I am "Liberal" when it comes to ridiculous posts.

    And this string is taxing my "Liberalness".

    I am not going to point fingers at anyone here but if we can dish it out then certainly we can take it (i.e. grow a thick skin).

    Now is someone actually posted your real name on this board or address or phone number then I will take action immediately by both deleting the thread and banning the person involved.

    If you feel you have been betrayed then please by all means do what Glory Days did to Tom and challenge him to a fight in Dallas.

    This thread is officially closed and over--no more SHIT on this subject is allowed. Move forward!!!!!

    It's not an Admin, it's THE Admin. Me, the owner of the forum. The one who's dime pays for the venue you voice your opinion on everyday and who's ass is on the line for each and everything that is posted here.

    My message is ridiculously simple and needs no clarification and no justification. The only people that should have a problem with it are those that cannot backup what they say with facts.

    The fact is the forum rules aren't up for forum debate unless I request it. Either follow them or go somewhere else. This forum is also intended for Tiger's Den regulars that wish to discuss topics that do not not fit in there.

    In summary. You're not the audience or "customer" this site is intended for. You've contributed nothing monetarily to support it's existence. Your messages like everyones', is nothing but a liability. The only time you've even addressed me even indirectly, has been to insult and criticize me, much less thank me which is the only compensation I remotely get for paying/administrating/moderating/maintaining this forum.

    I would like to thank you however for making me seriously reconsider the future of this forum.
