4xys.. is missing the neutral observations.

While the substance of The_Neutral_Observer's posts cannot be faulted, many members find The_Neutral_Observer's adherence to the third person to be somewhat pretensious.

This poster would have to respectfully disagree. Substance and Style. This poster finds The_Neutral_Observers posts to be some of the best material here on Arfcom.

Do a search of his posts--he posted a "I'm taking some time off" thread in Team a week or two ago.  Nothing ominous or sinister--he's just taking a break to do other stuff.

Honestly, I would be thrilled to do so.  Here's the thing--

He and his buddy accused me of making "snide remarks" about them.  I have not.  He has made posts similar to this one on numerous ocasions, containing exactly what he accused me of doing.  I posted two examples in the Pit thread--and he failed to respond with the requested examples of MY "snide remarks" directed at him and his buddy.  I have used the phrase he quoted on several occasions, but never when he was anywhere near--and NEVER in reference to him, or anyone in particular--purely a general comment, not directed at ANYONE.  Now on Monday he's back at it.  I decided that from now on I'm not going to overlook it.  Any/every time he makes a nasty dig, I'm going to respond.  Every time--especially until I see examples of *MY* "snide remarks" directed at him.  Of course, I won't be holding my breath, as I know they don't exist.

See my sig.

He did slip up one night

Him and his wife produced a little neutral observer and is taking the time off arfcom to do his duty as a new dad.

He still pops in from time 2 time.

The_Neutral_Observer is very 'informed' in a 'professional' capacity…

The_Neutral_Observer is an 'operator'…

I find his posts very informative and insightful… I will miss him if he has gone.

You could've contacted a moderator or staff member to inform them of what was going on in that thread with Pat Rogers. You screwed the pooch on that one.

I didnt pay much attention to that thread until someone pointed out what was going on in it.


Add to that the fact that very few people get the difference between a mod and a staff member (I can lock threads, not accounts).  I cant control what happens in forums other than the ones I mod in, other than running to staff to whine about grown men acting like children.  

I post a thread of some PICTURES, and suddenly is MY JOB to control idiots starting an argument in it?

Give me a break.

True--and once Staff (me) became aware of the situation it was handled.  Ironically, we handled the situation, yet need to be "reined in"??  WTF?
