Oh well

The fact that you support such extremely dishonourable conduct is
quite astonishing. *I simply fail to comprehend how that can be.

Dishonorable conduct? You have a beef with certain posters so you
decide to innudate us with multiple posts that say the same thing,
most of it gibberish and you want to talk about dishonorable conduct.
Your behavior these past few days borders on some the most infantile
crap most of us have ever seen from a reputed adult. But at the end of
the day, we can no more control Ken than we can control you.

We operate in a free environment and those of us in America, at least,
value our freedoms, one of which is the freedom of speech. The Ken and
you got into offer remarks you made about Gays in Europe does not make
things dishonorable here. Your comments, however they were intended,
came across as homophobic and Ken never has been afraid to express his
opinion and you played right into it. Personally I think most of the
problems result from cultural differences that most of us have not
experienced nor we have any comprehension of it.

Much the same way you played into with Gehrke or any other numerous
other spats over the years. Hell, I remember you called me ":stupid"
for disagreeing with one of your fishing assertions once. Before you
call me a liar, remember there is a large archive of posts on google.

Ken plays you like a fiddle and you walk right into it. What I do or
don't do has nothing to do with it. You own your website and the
content, you don't own ROFF nor do you own ROFFT. And you know darn
well you are pushing if not exceeding the boundaries of the terms of
participation for most internet isps and websites over some perceived
slight.

As others have said, you take this stuff way too seriously. Your fly
fishing jones goes beyond what most of us here think as normal, but at
the same time the olympics will soon be upon us with people that did
nothing but practice their sports for years for this chance to
participate. When you';re as serious as you are about something, it
becomes hard to see the forest for the trees and to bring the level
you are imparting to the level of the person you are consulting. Your
fly line splicing is a perfect example. Most of us don't need to
playing with heads to fish the waters we fish over here. Maybe how and
where you fish it is important, and good for you that you can do it.
That I don't doesn't mean anything more than I don't make and use
shooting heads.

Regardless of what you think of Ken. I consider him a friend, I may
not agree with him on his opinions or how he presents his arguments,
all the time but last I checked agreeing with someone all the time was
not a requirement to be a friend. So I'll add my name to the list that
asks you to chill. Honor comes in many forms and doing dishonorable
things as revenge on something you think is dishonorable does not
justify it. You know it.

A very rational and sensible post, which I read several times and
digested thoroughly. It is truly a pity that you have no influence on
your sick ****bag mother****er of a friend.

Why don´t you write him a similar epistle on the virtues of honour and
common sense?

If i thought that what I did was dishonourable, I simply wouldn´t do
it.

What you think about what I should think or do, while interesting, is
completely irrelevant.
