Yeah. Right. Delusions of Grandeur. I know that type.

Usually those with low self esteem will belittle others to make them feel better about themselves.

Ah, thanks for admitting you like challenges. What would you do if you ever lost a challenge?? Would your self-esteem plummet??

Also, I'd rather wallow in slime, then to s*** on people. But you seem to enjoy it.

Funny, for awhile I liked your wit. But then  you began to spew hateful comments, and those are worse than anything I've said.

Yeah, ignore me. I'd rather not have someone as hateful as you talking to me, or responding to me in a forum.

So, Mr. Superior, please leave me alone.

I think I missed reading something. I was under the impression
that this was a dead topic, but I let my attention slip a little
and didn't pay attention to what was going on, then "Bang" - it just
kept going. Now does this mean that Bill D. has decided to quit
attending these little shindigs and leave us peons (in his dreams)
alone. [:0] [] [8D] I just got the feeling that hell froze over. [)]

I don't know, but I do hope he ignores me. I may not be perfect, but I don't go around putting others down.(unless they do it to me first) I believe in the Golden Rule.

I am ashamed.

If you think Bill should not speak his mind then it's like a man with no balls.

Bill has lots of balls.

you may see my distinction here:

God forgive you all.

Bill 'has' the balls and the 'distinction' to speak his own mind.

Bill is an outstanding citizen which most are not capable of swollowing, if you have not learned to swollow then you shall choke on every word.

I am sorry, but if you can not live with Bill then you can not live with yourself.

I can not bear to see Bill leave this forum nor his cup of baked noodles.

Sincerely Agnostic

Nobody has said they want Bill to leave this forum Jerry.
But it does seem that you and others are condoning the double
standard that has been forming here. Of course Bill has the
right to speak his mind, but not to the point of demeaning
others and treating them as if they are made of substandard
material and less than equal as human beings. All of us are
entitled to an opinion. Mine is that no person is of lesser
value than any other person. Each person has different experiences
to draw from and each possesses different talents and abilities.
That doesn't make them worth less, it just makes then different,
with different and varied ideas, suggestions and solutions they
can contribute to this forum.

Double Standards? I don't believe in double standards, I am a logical mind of science, I believe only in facts, anything else is just a lie.

I never said that I wanted Bill to leave. I said I wanted him to leave me alone. Since he cannot say anything but disparaging words for me, I don't want to read it, or have it posted on a forum.

Personal attacks should not be allowed on a forum. A lot of forums I belong to don't allow it.

If Bill likes you, that's fine. But I don't want to be assaulted on a forum for no good reason. Speaking your mind is fine, but not when it's to belittle people in the forum.

How would you like it if I said you all are jerks, and I am better than you??? (I am NOT saying that as fact, just an example)

 I want to get along with everyone, however, I will not be walked on. For I do not walk on people.  I take offense to those that think I'm a bad person. I may not be good all of the time, but at least I am not a murderer, rapist, or abuser of any kind, at least physically.(I don't mean to be a verbal abuser, if anyone thinks I am) A lot of bad people are in prisons, where they belong. But certain "people" here think I am bad. And if they had their way, I am sure I'd be horse-whipped or put in prison too.

What is happening here?
I just arrived back home to discovered that everyone
has fallen out with Bill.
Bill's points are all valid and reasonable. I don't think
that he has over stepped the mark with his views.
This site should be concerned with AI issues, since that
is what HAL is all about, isn't it? Bill is just stating the fact
that the whole forum has gone far beyond this.
Bill's input makes it interesting to visit and read the messages that
are posted. I have learned alot from him, as have many others,
he is a very clever and inspiring person. He helps anybody with
a problem, if he can or if he can't he points them in the right
direction.
If he should be made to feel that he should leave this forum
then the loss would be felt greatly by everyone.

Roy.

Should personal attacks be allowed?[?][?][?][?][?]

No matter what?

[aladyblond]

my take. no one told anyone to leave. but it seems that no matter who says their opinion, mr. noodle bake wants to debate. if that is not the case fine, but in reading the posts it appears that way. i have no personal quarrel with bill dewitt. i think he is very intelligent and has many good outstanding ideas. i just wish he wasn't on the defensive constantly. i dont wish to attack him or anyone, but we all in this forum have a RIGHT TO BE HERE UNLES WE BREAK RULES AND ALL OF US HAVE A RIGHT TO CONTRIBUTE OUR TALENT AND NOT BE PUT DOWN FOR OUR IDEAS.

This topic doesn't seem to be going anywhere good. So I am going to lock it.
