@StumpTownStu He has asked you to not reply in his threads, given your past it is a REASONABLE request. You obviously have issues with him so just keep out of his threads and do not reply it is better for YOU and for him. If you know someone has a propensity to get upset and it does not take much to push him over, why interact with him knowing that you are going to cause a bad situation in the process? There are several members in this area who would rather not interact in a combative fashion and make large efforts to avoid confrontation, so since you already know this just stop replying in his threads and to his comments.
I have no issues with him. He has issues with me. I responded to a topic, not a poster. Not a person. Again, this is a public forum. Posts, threads if you will, don't belong to anyone except for covers itself. This isn't like going into someone's season thread. Are these posts not meant for debate or is this place just an echo chamber?
Look at his opening post and tell me you have the audacity to say he doesn't want to be combative and makes efforts to avoid confrontation.
