Merlin Posted November 29, 2012 Report Posted November 29, 2012 (edited) I don't know what a warning point is for really but how do I get rid of it? Also was I not allowed to post a topic like that? It wasn't containing any foul words. I thought it would supply some off topic lightness. Do we only have to discuss serious matters at all times? It was a post titled "Is Christy Clark the best looking Premier" or something like that. Then I asked for people to list other attractive politicians. I thought it would be fun. Last year a former NDP MLA criticized her for being too revealing in the legislature, which made the national news btw, so I figured it was a legitimate topic. Since I wasn't being vulgar. Did I post the topic in the wrong area? Please help me. Edited November 29, 2012 by Merlin Quote

No, please help me, I don't know how to do it.They keep calling my Mr Canada. I am not Mr Canada. It makes me sad. Why do they always call me Mr Canada?

Merlin Posted November 29, 2012 Author Report Posted November 29, 2012 oh right.,.....merlin. Like the magician who pulls tricks , such as illusions of being someone else? Cool! I don't understand what you mean. Please be nice to me. I am a disabled person and I don't need some people causing me further pain. Please tell me what you mean and I hope you're not being mean to me. Quote

Some of me tells me that I shouldn't have to hide that people shouldn't be allowed to blatantly accuse me of something without a shred of concrete proof whatsoever. Quote

Merlin Posted November 29, 2012 Author Report Posted November 29, 2012 Well you wouldn't be hiding...just looking the other way. That's a good point. I will use it from now on. Thank you again for your help. Quote
Guest Posted November 30, 2012 Report Posted November 30, 2012 I don't care if you're MrCanada or not, I can't believe you got a warning point for that. Christy Clark isn't a patch on Danielle Smith. Of course, she's not a premier yet. Quote

Merlin Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Posted November 30, 2012 I'm scared because I don't really know what a warning point means. Can I ever get rid of the warning point or is there forever? I didn't try to make trouble here. I am a new member and just found this board so I may not be up to speed on the rules...I am sorry to the owner of the board if I made some trouble. I don't want to be in any more trouble. I have enough trouble with my disability. Quote
Merlin Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Posted November 30, 2012 Yes. Ok, I didn't know that. Quote
cybercoma Posted November 30, 2012 Report Posted November 30, 2012 People are making my disability pain feel worse. Back away from the keyboard then. Quote
The_Squid Posted November 30, 2012 Report Posted November 30, 2012 When is mr Canada going to be banned agai? I suppose it's only a matter of time..... You are an insult to actual disabled people. Quote
Sleipnir Posted November 30, 2012 Report Posted November 30, 2012 (edited) I failed to see how mentioning disability has to do with anything. Edited November 30, 2012 by Sleipnir Quote "All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence; then success is sure." - Mark Twain
Merlin Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Posted November 30, 2012 When is mr Canada going to be banned agai? I suppose it's only a matter of time..... You are an insult to actual disabled people. I have no idea when Mr Canada is going to get banned. All I know is that I am not that poster. My take on issues is different from that poster's.Please do not insult disabled people. Some people would rather that we disabled people just die and go away so they don't have to deal with us. Well we will not just die and go away. Quote

Well we will not just die and go away. No one's insulting disabled people, Merlin. But cybercoma's right: If the repartee here is causing you pain, take a break. This is a political discussion board. It's feisty at times. Eta ... How does your take differ from MrCanada's take on issues, and how do you know? Edited November 30, 2012 by jacee Quote
Merlin Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Posted November 30, 2012 Eta ... How does your take differ from MrCanada's take on issues, and how do you know? I don't know what eta means. But when I first joined here many ppl called me mr canada so I read some of his posts and his ideas are differnt from mine. He lives in Halton Hills, I live in Toronto. I am disabled, he is not. Many differences. He seems very right wing I am in the middle and left wing with many issues. Quote
AngusThermopyle Posted November 30, 2012 Report Posted November 30, 2012 From what I've been seeing it appears there is a real bully situation going on here. It doesn't matter if some think this poster is some one else, refute the posts not whom you perceive the poster to be. Try growing up and dropping the school yard attitude, it may be hard but use some self control otherwise you just appear small and petty. If you disagree with Merlin then articulate that sentiment, it will raise the tone of discussion and eliminate the pettiness. Quote I yam what I yam - Popeye

Try growing up and dropping the school yard attitude, it may be hard but use some self control otherwise you just appear small and petty. If you disagree with Merlin then articulate that sentiment, it will raise the tone of discussion and eliminate the pettiness. If Merlin is formerly known as Mr. Canada and if Mr. Canada has been banned then Merlin is breaking the rules. But the best way to deal with this is to report this alleged violation rather than continuously ask the question.

And that is incompatible with a secular democracy.
