But if they aren't, the flamer is at fault, not the flamee (I'm pretty sure that's not a word ).
Somebody who intentionally starting a flamefest isn't at fault?

Where did I say anything about Glonkie?
Asher's point is that they AREN'T having a reasonable discussion - it has only one side of the issue and is pretty much circle-jerk (a new term to add to my vocabulary ).

I wonder if Ming has realized that he's become his father yet...
Of course, once the cat was out of the bag, he could only do one thing. The blame rests solely on Asher's shoulders. None of this would have happened had he not done that stupid, stupid action.
Whatever. Unlike Asher, I get personal satisfaction and good times out of something a bit more sophisticated than harrasing users of an operating system not my own.

Asher definately has a future in politics. Nothing can be more satisfying than seeing your "enemies" self-destruct so easily.

I don't see the word "Glonkie" anywhere in there.
Asher is the poster who was formerly known as Glonk.

It is Asher's fault that the other poster's were breaking the rules?
Or perhaps it was Asher's fault for telling the mods? You know, some people *cough*me*cough* actually don't dislike people who report those in BLATANT VIOLATION OF THE RULES.

The thing is, the mac forum was so small, and so very inactive, that it just never seemed like that big of a deal to me. It would be rare to even see a new post there in a week, sometimes longer. Because of that, I never thought of it as worth reporting, or even as a blatant violation of the rules. You have to remember, one of the guys who worked on the Civ2 official port regularly posted there, providing information and such, and he promoted talk about off-topic mac stuff. He was sort of 'official' and if he was doing it, heck, why not us? Seriously, the idea of it offending "THE OWNERS" (oooooh!) never even occurred to me.
All of which boils down to the fact that Asher may have not done anything against the rules, but he's still really lame.

x-posted at CG in response to monolith saying I was a "loser" for doing this and the whole thing was "lame".
You know what I think is lame?
Drake and Agathon's repeated (half-dozen or so) attacks on my SO.
Agathon ordering me out of the forum for having a rational discussion with people.
Having a club-forum with no moderator on a site that even bans club-threads.
I did greatly enjoy it, if only because I did get my revenge. And as with all weapons of mass destruction, there was collateral damage.
And for that I'm not sorry, since Mac users don't like me to begin with. It's more like two birds with one stone than collateral damage, actually.
You may think it is the act of a "loser", but then you'd be forgetting it was Drake and Agathon that threw little hissy fits, insulting the mods, and insulting other peoples' SOs trying to rationalize a forum that clearly broke the rules.
A winner is me.

The simple fact of the matter is the forum only existed so a few major Mac users could have a circle jerk (and yes, this is a very valid analogy) over Apple. Anyone can go and look at the threads and see what I've posted there was entirely reasonable, and I got flamed by the same people continuously because of this.
They seem to have thought the Mac forum was their own little "Club Forum" where they could escape the reality that opposing viewpoints bring. And when my name came up in a search to the Mac forums with Agathon personally insulting me (assuming I wouldn't read the forums), I began to pay closer attention to them and replying to some threads.
It got to the point where Agathon and Drake's behavior was so bad (and they were the heaviest contributers to that forum), and no one was moderating that forum, that I "accidentally" let the mods know about its existence. After all, Agathon's last comment before Ming came was "We need a mod."
Be careful what you wish for.

It seems that the feeling is mutual.
Their attacks on you were low, but not unprovoked.
