when poet responds to you saying he is ignoring you, it serves literally no purpose, other than to instigate and inflame. There is zero positivity brought out of that, and it only starts fights. It's also completely 100% ego driven and self serving.
My role in this today, on the other hand, is to keep the thread focused, not derailed. And it's the opposite of self serving, as I am hoping/trying/striving that everyone benefits from a less cluttered, less flame-warry thread. It's a request of others not to participate in his childish antics.
So I believe that's the difference. I am trying to prevent flaming and derailing, poet thrives in instigating others. Poet has had literally zero purpose in this thread other than to insult others. There is nothing else he's done in here.
If you still want to go back and forth with him over unrelated minutia, I have no problem with that, I won't stop you. I just don't want you stabbing your eyes with icepicks.
