I agree. Jre didn't insult you at all, Jas, but was rather making a comment about just how stupid the ignorant can sound.. Why the hostility?
I didn't intend any hostility at all; writing on a forum is a pretty expressionless way of communicating, so the "dryness" with which it was meant to come across evidently didn't show. I also didn't mean he was nasty towards
me, I meant what he said about the people posting in the thread in general, and I'm pretty sure most people would agree that calling people f**kheads is pretty nasty. Neither did I call him stupid. Why the fuss?
I would like to point out, in support of my friend, that in all of Jre's 1200+ posts on Piano Street I have not once seen a post that wasn't intelligent.
I'm sure you're right, I haven't sifted through his entire output. That comment was meant for the sdc post and the sdc post alone.
Anyway, to (try to) keep the peace: I'm not going to apologise when I didn't mean any insult in the first place, especially when however nasty my post may have looked, jre's looked moreso. But I have nothing personal against anyone here, including jre (don't know anyone well enough), and I actually feel a bit bad about going on about his post when it was other people, not him, who for some reason decided to jump on my case about it. So, peace? Any takers?
