BTW, It would be nice to see a post from you unrelated to your duties once in a while.....

I'm sure you've got a lot more to say about flight simming than moderator issues...

I mean that sincerely,

Devon.

How about showing some respect here Devon ? Darrell has his hands full right now and you're not helping things much. Common human coutesy towards eachother is in order here - let's not be too hard on the man, huh ?



Best Regards,

I appreciate your concern, Bob.
I've come to respect your opinions so I'll respond in kind.

Believe me, if there is a way to smooth the waters, I'm all for it. I think you have seen me around long enough to know that I don't hold grudges. Rick Attfield and I had a battle some time ago and we are now good friends because we worked out our problems. In fact, we are currently writing a joint column together.

The whole story cannot be told because every time I've attempted to solve our(Darrell and I) differences through discussion, the post gets deleted and I get thrown a condescending remark. I have made NUMEROUS attempts to smooth the waters. Again and again I'm dismissed and insulted.

Where's the common courtesy in that?

Furthermore, Darrell has gone out of his way to push my buttons knowing that I would react. This suggests to me that he has made it personal. His hands may be full, but he seems to have plenty of time to tick me off.

You speak of common courtesy and
I agree with you wholeheartedly!

I am trying my best but I'm not about to take it up the wazoo from the person I'm being courteous to.

I know Darrell is busy, but being busy does not excuse someone for taking accountablity for their own actions.

What would you suggest?

Devon, here's my ideas:


>> Guess you couldn't leave that Banana post up after all, hey Darrell....

Well, that seems a little antagonistic to me for starters. In fact - it seems to have a cocky attitude to it ( IMO )

>> and I get thrown a condescending remark

From Darrell - I find that hard to believe - unless it was warranted by a tasteless remark from you


>> The whole story cannot be told because every time I've attempted to solve our(Darrell and I) differences through discussion, the post gets deleted and I get thrown a condescending remark. I have made NUMEROUS attempts to smooth the waters. Again and again I'm dismissed and insulted.


Want my opinion ? I have found it much better to confront the individual in private and work out your differences than try to solve them in a public place. The tone can degrade very quickly as statements are often misconstrued. If you have a Bible handy, look up Matthew 18:15-17 - that gives a very good description on how to handle conflicts ( even if you aren't religious, it still makes some very good points on conflict resolution )


>> Furthermore, Darrell has gone out of his way to push my buttons knowing that I would react. This suggests to me that he has made it personal. His hands may be full, but he seems to have plenty of time to tick me off.


That - I'd like to see. IF it were true, that statement is a two way street my friend.

>>I'm not about to take it up the wazoo from the person I'm being courteous to.


Try to initiate it - be courteous first - and even if you are not responded back with courtesy, - STILL be courteous back to him - Matthew 5:39-42


>> being busy does not excuse someone for taking accountability for their own actions.

True, but are you over reacting a little here ? I feel Darrell is more than fair. Give him a chance, you may just be pleasantly surprised !



Best Regards,

Bob :-wave

[Flashpoint]

Bob, how correct you are. Good job on bringing Matthew 5:39-42 into this discussion.

You are right, Darrell does not need this kind of crap from other people, nor has he been unfair. I find Darrell to be a VERY fair person who dispenses justice evenly.

Devon, How about you lay off the moderators and stop giving the a headache. Seems to me, you are another keyboard Hitler, just trying to piss people off. Useless threads, sarcastic tone, all attempts to get Darrell to lash out at you so you can make him the "bad man". Everyone else here knows that Darrell is a good person. Only question is, when will you start to be a good person?

Devon,
I guess you expect to try to resolve any issues you and I have by making your e-mail address unavailable, and just using an open forum? Mine is clearly visible, yet I've not heard from you.
And with that being said, this thread is now locked. The ball is in your court.
Darrell

Bob,

Thanks for your reply. It was well thought out but perhaps I can shed further light on the situation.

Try to initiate it - be courteous first - and even if you are not responded back with courtesy, - STILL be courteous back to him - Matthew 5:39-42

I did, and I did. No more. I also believe in the three strikes rule.

I have found it much better to confront the individual in private and work out your differences than try to solve them in a public place.

I agree. I tried that. His reply ratio is 50-50, and when he does reply it's usually a two word response. I seem to get more out of him in the forums. Therefore, I will pursue the channel with the best chance of communication.


Well, that seems a little antagonistic to me for starters. In fact - it seems to have a cocky attitude to it ( IMO )

Yep, it sure was. But that's out of context. It would be unfair to judge my conduct on that statement without knowing the history of the conversation.

>> and I get thrown a condescending remark

From Darrell - I find that hard to believe - unless it was warranted by a tasteless remark from you

That's just it, there was no tasteless remark, just a difference of opinion. I'm sure Darrell is a really nice guy. You've obviously have a high opinion of him. I can only go on my personal experience and unfortunately and can't concur with your feelings. He has been condescending ever since I've known him. I don't think he's like this in general, but he does have isolated feelings towards me whether he admits it or not.

>> Furthermore, Darrell has gone out of his way to push my buttons knowing that I would react. This suggests to me that he has made it personal. His hands may be full, but he seems to have plenty of time to tick me off.

That - I'd like to see. IF it were true, that statement is a two way street my friend.

It IS true. Why would I lie about it? Why would I spend time writing this response if I didn't believe in what I was saying?

As far as a two-way street, you're right. But how many times to I have to offer the olive branch before he finally accepts it?
The bible would say as many times as it takes.

Again, I revert to the three-strikes rule. If Darrell wants to carry this conflict on endlessly, I'm happy to oblige him.
The difference between him and me is that I have shut the door on resolving our issues, only he can walk through it...

Joe, thanks.
I have taken your thoughts under consideration.
I shall endeavour to be more forgiving in this situation.

Devon.
