POI? Hell no. The other two? Yeah, maybe. What did I do to you besides express my personal disapproval of your admiration for Che Guevara?

But it's hard when you find yourself fighting with a 12 yr old Call of Duty player who is arguing with you about movie guns!

I credit MT2008 a lot with teaching me patience and compassion for others. MT2008 is a lot like Buddha, hmmmmm.
You have been at bit harsh sometimes to a member when they didn't follow the rules. But you have gotten better. Even though I have never met or talked to you in real life. I see you as Walter Sobchak "Doesn't anybody give a shit about the rules!" Not that you would pull a firearm on somebody.

Well that's me being polite. You should see me when I'm angry. Do any of the other users think I was scary or are you being sarcastic MPM?

Chinaman is not the preferred nomenclature.

I can be patient sometimes, but I also believe there's no such thing as a stupid question...until YOU ask it.

BTW, a quick thought...

Actually, I'm not so sure that's such a good thing. On most Wikis, discussion unrelated to the topic of the page is not allowed. That's not to say it doesn't happen (I'm looking at a Wikipedia page now where people express opinions), but it's not really the norm.

Also, remember that just because the Mods have tolerated something in the past doesn't mean it's a good idea. We're humans, too, and we live and learn. It might be worth considering whether we want to ensure that the focus of the Discussion pages remains the guns in the movie/TV show/game in question.

On the other hand, FiveTwoSeven has no right to run around acting like he's a Mod when he's not (and making giving us real Mods worse reputations than we already have).

I was teasing a little. But you weren't really POLITE. You were stern and professional and no nonsense. You were like the bailiff saying "Ma'am, please stand up. The Judge wishes to speak to you at the bench......."

My low tolerance level usually comes after a bad day on the set Or dealing with really really REALLY STUPID people in the biz. My apologies.
