I was going to say something along the same lines,
but now, all I have to do is go clean up the mess I just made...

Trainfinder22,

I just want to thank you.

This forum makes me lose a lot of sleep because I probably spend a little too much time on it while at work, so I have to work at night to make up for what work I have missed. If it wasn't for you I would lose a lot more sleep.

This website is nearly perfect. There are a lot of knowledgeable people who know a lot more about trains than I do and are kind enough to share their knowledge with me. Although a lot of people disagree with one another, most everyone on here is polite and respectful to one another and the forum as a whole. Heck, even though Junctionfan can say some crazy things now and then, I still get the feeling he tries to be friendly and respectful.

And then there is you. You get booted from the forum for using language disrespectful to the forum. Instead of coming back to the forum in a respectful manner, you flaunt the fact that you were booted by chosing a name that is disrespectful to the forum. Then you say stuff like you just did--which the forum has made clear that they don't want to hear.

Needing attention is one thing, but you are just a jerk. If you were just incompetent, it wouldn't really bother me, but you need to get your attention to compensate for your childhood inadequacies by disrespecting people.

So thank you in helping make this forum a little less enjoyable so that I can sleep and get more work done.

Gabe

P.S. If you ever wonder why you don't have any friends, the answer is: because sometimes life really is fair.

Yes, I like Star Trek and watch the TV shows and movies. No, I do not speak any launguage, or dress up, or ....... so I would disagree with your point.

Also I think Sulu would be the fireman, not Spock.

There may be a direct correlation between the same types of obessive behavior between railfans and Science fiction fans. Every year somewhere on Amtrak without fail I run into a group of klingons coming from a Trekie convention on Amtrak. I suppose if the Enterprise were a train ,Kirk would be the conducter,Spock the fireman,Mcoy the bartender in the clubcar,Nurse Chaple would tuck you in inthe sleeper cars,Checkov would be the engineer,Scottie would be in charge of Locomotive maintance and shops and Uhura would be the Dispacther. Norfolk Southern would be played by the Klingons and the Romulains would be played by Union Pacfic...
