Suggestion Why is trolling ok in all forums except DIR?

[scubasean]

Or, is it that DIR is a special "no trolling zone" where fines are doubled?

I'm mystified....

I never cease to be amazed at the things that I obviously don't have enough information about to properly understand....

Dude...I hope you were paying the '02 stuff....b/c that "stuff" ain't due for another 3 months....and you can get an extension...why give Sammy his money early?

Ethic ? I'm surprised you legal types know how to spell that...

Not if you itemize and pay quarterly. There are hoards of little govermental
munchkins that need to be paid for "government stuff."

Oh thanks big-t. I only regret that I didn't seek your advice on ethical matters earlier...I guess when you list your interests as "darts, beer, NASCAR and the Simpsons" it looked like you weren't interestedd in philosophical persuits. I never thought the Engineering School covered much Phenomenology and Existentialism. Just cement and building bridges.
See how Scuba has broadened our outlook on life?

I guarantee that your matters would have been solved much sooner....

And FWIW...I'm not the guy who builds these things

I never thought the Engineering School covered <<large words big-t can't pronounce>> Just cement and building bridges

We commonly refer to those as "Targets"

For the record, during my study of engineering at RPI, I took several 400 level philosophy classes covering many things, including phenomenology and existentialism. In addition, I learned grammar and spelling in grade school, hence my ability not to capitalize common nouns such as phenomenology and existentialism (and my ability not to split infinitives).

LOL! Give it about ten years .... you'll forget all that crappola and rely heavily your Secretary to fix all sins. I know it seems like such things matter now but they really don't. Certainly not as much as doing your core job well.
Trust me on this.

Lawman is just yankin your chain as he types on the device designed by Engineers.

Lawman has an Engineerophobia thing goin on.

Wow! And your language isn't pompous, stilted or pretentious either!

I think the origional question was about trolling and DIR. It seems to be a fact
that any mention of DIR gets a violent response. I don't have any more feeling for the DIR/GUE stuff than I do about bowlers using a three finger vs.
a four finger ball. I only mentioned DIR [the infamous trolling threads] to watch how it's followers reacted. The trolls were mild but the responses weren't. I don't think many people in herecare about DIR one way or the other.

Now who in the hell uses a 4 finger bowling ball?...That's just silly
