SMF - Just Installed!
I heard a great joke recently about three old farts who walked into a bar, arguing about which of them was oldest and most gaseous.Quote from: "Peaches"
Sadly, I can't recall the punchline ATM.

I remember. The punchline is Peaches. You have to be the oldest and most full of it.

But you'll still be an old fart.
So, I take it that you're not interested in being my beloved Sancho Panza?Quote from: "Blurt"
It could be the role of a lifetime, you know?
Also, before you further attempt to impugn my moral rectitude or my online socialization preferences, I'll have you acknowledge that, while I may be a member of SG, I was never a member at Flame Champs, Cosmic Outpost, Troll Valhalla, or Brawl Hall. That would be you, Sir
Sorry, but I must call out a rat when I smell one.
And I don't joust with Scouse. He has no lance. And no armor. I'm just playing with my food.Sensei.

Blurt has a history with some of the people here..
I doubt there is any real animosity on any side though.
I understand a bit of the history; I've been perusing posts in this forum for a few years now. And like you, I don't take the animosity too seriously (although for some posters forum life is a bit more "real" than I consider healthy.)
What I described as professional jealousy probably could be better described in other terms. I'm seeing the same sort of thing around Herman's conversations on SG. Like Blurt, he is again able to converse with posters like Scouse and Joe. And I'll be first to admit that like Blurt, Old Herman definitely has the upper hand in most of those conversations...at least to a reader like me who is mostly here to have a good time.
So the jealousy of which I speak is mostly not about how well Blurt delivers in F2F dialogue, it's about Blurt's being in the right place to get F2F.
And of course, it's a transitory thing because very shortly, the freshness of those circumstances will fade -- and all concerned will be back to noticing that Scouse and Joe only bring butthurt to the table, and spammy repetitive posting, and one is better served by ignoring their posts just as before.
Stated simply, it's not that kicking Scouse around like a soccer ball is a high attainment, but rather that Blurt gets the pleasure of doing it at will, and Rotty doesn't.
