Private Messages from I Like to Bike?

Is anyone else getting angry e-mails from I Like to Bike?
This guy seems to be taking things a little personally?
Just wondering.

Forward them to the moderators.
I can't believe you got hate mail before me.
I must be off my game.

Enjoy

Not so much as hate mail, but more replies as if I had personally attacked the guy.
I don't understand the need to private message me as opposed to debating me on the public forum like everyone else.

When I read something wildly off the mark, foolish, or just plain silly from a known fool, zealot or ranting ideologue, I prefer to ignore it. When I read something foolish from someone who I think has intelligence I might send a PRIVATE MESSAGE to that person so as not to bring up the topic on the entire list. I have found out that it is possible to have a civil discussion with such people (even when we disagree on major points) off line that is far more responsive than obtained on-line with all the attendent static and chatter.

Obviously I misjudged Treespeed's character.

You might want to reread some of your "intelligent" private messages, especially the one where you referred to some as a 'Jack-off', before you start talking about people's character.

Yes, this public discourse is much better than doing this through private messages.

Thread closed. If you both want someone to help you resolve your differences, drop me a PM. I'm sporadically on and off, but I'm willing to help.
