Topic: New site design community announcement from nickcharalambous

zn706,A.K.A. Chris Derevenko,You talk about an insecure keyboard Rambo, but you are the one like PREVERT and the Rick is Wrong gang who are afraid to come out in the open.How about it BIG MOUTH SISSY.Take that and you`ll take anything,PREVERT will.

Sure, sure, Rino. Just for the record, though - and given the unfortunate turn this discussion has taken, this will fit right in - I'm not sure how wise you are to bring a water pistol to a real gunfight.

Rino, I know I probably shouldn't waste my breath, but I've always been somewhat of a Cocklebur masochist. Also, I cannot believe I'm about to come to Zn's defense of all people, but... It seems to me above that you identified Zn by name, whether or not that is his actual name I have no idea, but you attempted to. I used to post on this forum under my own name because I believed that anything I said should be something I should say with my name attached that that was the honorable thing to do. I still feel that way in some respects, but I had some one who was angered at my comments track me down, take a picture of my house, and send me some very nasty threats. All of this over the stupid Cocklebur. I left for a while because it scared me a lot, and I would be lying if I said that it didn't affect me even today. I was the kind of person who was always very open to the world, talking to people in line at the grocery store, etc. Now, I'm less like that. To this day, I check locks repeatedly at home. I used to keep my front door open for the sunshine, not any more. Whoever this idiot was changed me a little, and I don't like that. Recently I've started back posting under an alias because I missed my Cocklebur friends, at least the ones I don't see in person. There are some great people here of all different political views. I'm going on this long rant because I want to tell you, on behalf of Zn and all the rest of us that if you want to disclose your name and personal information, that is your right, but please DO NOT do so for the rest of us. This man has a family and children, and although he can be absolutely infuriating, I would not wish harm on him or anyone in his family for anything in the world. I also ask this of all of the rest of the Cocklebur not just you. I know that obviously you take local politics very seriously and very personally, and I also think they are important, but I know somewhere under all of that anger there is a guy that could come hang out and drink a beer with me and just laugh. Can we see that guy a little?

Very well said, Virginia. Thanks. And please don't leave us again.

Nick,

In the name of sanity, in the name of civilized discourse, do somerhing !

If something isn't done to rein in these teenagers, I fear the others will abandon this great effort of yours and leave it totally to these neanderthals.

Virginia, I understand what you mean about disclosure.  I was disappointed that JDTippett, Rino and sshm published my name but I'm still here.  Those three care nothing about others or privacy. 

Thanks for the correction, Prevail. I'll take you and Rino and Zn on any day when it comes to political opinions and facts, but I value everybody's right to privacy - even Joey Preston's, as I've said many times here.
