You revealed that you have your posts per page set to a low number earlier in this thread. Before I revealed that I have mine set to max.
Furthermore, there is no way you could have known prior to my revelation of my posts per page setting.
You are lying.
Not true GoChiefs, you had a lesson on here one night about it. You even posted a picture of your settings, that is how I knew to set mine. :-) [Reply]

They did not attribute that change to themsleves. They misled others who might view that thread to believe that the title of that thread was my intent, even though it was the opposite of my intent.....and more importantly, it was the intent of the person who changed the title.
So, while the topic is insignificant the behavior is not. Especially coming from a moderator. Moderators are supposed to moderate, not insinuate.
What if we took up a collection and got you a BRAND NEW rubber penis?... :-) [Reply]

Okay then. Ban all stupid threads. If that happened I'd have to say that you, along with me, would find themselves banned.
The bottom line is that this particular mod made a mistake. Nobody's words should be altered. A thread should be deleted before it should be changed to reflect something different than the thread starter intended.
Again, again, again, and again......this particular instance is of minimal signifigance, but it is the principle that is VERY important, IMO.
I don't think anybody else on this board would want the wording of their ideas changed for any reason, regardless of the topic. [Reply]

As anyone knows, any of those other half-dozen threads will immediately appear on the first page as soon as somebody responds to them.
Look, I don't take my self TOO seriously. But, I'll confess that there are prinicples that I feel very strongly about. For someone to alter another's words or intentions and then basically hem and haw about it like it was totally innocent when their explanation appears to be full of shit...well, that doesn't cut it either.
Your words were switched? You made a freaking parody thread for christ sakes. It wasn't like you were saying anything insightful.
A parody thread you made was turned into another parody thread.
