For some reason this person has decided to be a jerk to me after I maturely addressed an issue I had with him in a PM. I never called him a racist, or even implied it. I told him how I viewed what he said, and HE probably felt like a racist after realizing the ignorance of what he said. Why he wishes to take it on in a public forum is baffling, but I imagine it is due to extreme immaturity and lack of guidance from any parental source. Here's our entire conversation so people may see the truth rather than just hate-filled propaganda being spewed by this fool. And he wonders why I don't frequent the forums, because it is ruined by idiots like him.

ME: Stupidity and inanity get low-rated in my world. Just because they're Poland-based doesn't give license to make sausage jokes - it's pretty ignorant and no more funny than asking people who live/work in Japan about sushi in a mocking manner.

HIM: You don't spend much time in the forum, do you? Sausages are an on going joke thrown around by several of us and has nothing to do with race or nationality. I'll grant you it was a stupid posts and I'll take my lump for that but I do not take kindly to be called or even insinuated as a racist.

ME: Nope, not much time on the forums, obviously. I don't mean to insinuate anything. If you don't want to appear ignorant and racist perhaps consider what you are saying and who you are saying it to. I mean, why/how would you ask such ridiculous sausage questions directed at Polish people and not be commenting on their heritage/diets? And if you weren't intending that, that is why I used the term ignorant, not racist. I'm not trying to argue at all or call you racist, seriously, I don't know you. But you can see how such a thing could be taken, yes? Which is why I made the sushi comparison, to show how it could appear to others. You wouldn't make joking questions about fried chicken and watermelon to black people, would you?

I wasn't the only one to low-rate you either, and taking pot-shots in the forums is simply immature. I addressed my issue with you in a PM, not in an open forum. Would you like me to address it in an open forum? I certainly don't "hang out wanting to be offended." Grow up. Do something productive with your time.

HIM: I think it's best if the two of us just avoid each other. The forum is big enough for both of us.

And now he has me blocked so I can no longer address my issues with him privately...so here it is, in the open forum, completely inappropriate and unnecessary. What the hell is wrong with people?
It's easy to miss when he edits and deletes the things he's been down-rated for.
I've only down-rated posts 2 or 3 times ever in my entire time coming here. I don't do it arbitrarily, and it is never directed at someone personally, but at what they say. TinyE said some stupid shit, I down-rated it, and his ego is now hurting and feels the need to lash out and be even stupider. *shrug* some people just suck.
