I would like to agree with the first point of Trashman's post. I also wanted to follow it when I received my very first insult(I think it was by ZylonBane with his "foreigners are cheap and reliable sort of entertainment"), but somehow I couldn't follow it, because I was thinking into what the others who visit the thread will be thinking about me(the insultee, if such word exists).
If Trashman is serious about selling his computer and leaving, I will be very depressed. If somebody, I can understand his feelings.
Trashman: If you keep visiting this thread(and HLP), please take my advice: Unsubscribe this thread, and leave the forum life go on. With time, everybody but a very few people will forget the events in this thread. And even those few people who will remember this thread WON'T be going to mention it.
And in addition, there is something else Trashman and I have in common. but I do not intend to write it down. Everyone who knows me at HLP may have a guess what it is.
