As requested, EB is the official forum snitch. I like that term better too. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

Here is my take. Nareed is pissed at some of the attitudes and finds some of the contents of the posts objectionable. Nareed even said "goodbye" in one of the posts, but got no reaction at all. So, Nareed is in a "suicide by cop" or "go down in a blaze of (misguided) glory" and is going to keep breaking the rules and poking at you and others with the end goal of being banned. The reasons are beyond me. So are the reasons for asking for a ban. If you don't want to participate somewhere, just don't. It isn't hard at all.

I hope EB doesn't take offense at that. "Rat" is much worse. Nobody ever says that Judas ratted out Jesus, that would be too insulting to Judas. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

I just look at who said it. FrG is mad at me because he insulted me and I blocked him and want nothing to do with him anymore. He can sit on his high moral horse and hurl his I'm superior arrows at somebody else, I'm done with it. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

| FrGamble Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 67 Posts: 7596 | I didn't technically say it I just thought it might be another synonym for snitch, tattle-tale, or fink. By the way I am not mad at Evenbob. I am certainly not mad at him because I did something to insult him, that seems backwards. I also don't think myself superior to anyone and I am always amazed at the gifts, knowledge, and talents on this forum. I am usually too scared to and can't really contribute anything on any of the threads except the religious ones. I know Evenbob doesn't seem to like tattletale because it makes him sound like he is in third grade. However, what would you can someone who gets mad and then won't talk to someone anymore and takes his toys and goes home? It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures. ( |

My mother liked that word when I was a kid. Many times she said to me, "Don't be a fink!" I'm still not sure what she thought it meant. It also came up on Wizard of Id cartoons a lot.  Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |
