Don't think this hasn't happened before in other "crybaby" threads whining about some imagined slight GB has supposedly visited upon somebody, somewhere.
GB's enemies seem to be legion. Some might call them "manufactured", or even "cultivated".
Props to you, Landisqueen.
Funny, how quiet in here it got, isn't it? What happened to all of the outrage over GB's latest sin? Just crickets now....
Oh, I forgot...it was fabricated outrage based on Seitse's abhorrent lies...
Seitse couldn't even deny one thing that I wrote...
And yet no one is calling him out on it? How can that be? They call GB out DAILY in hundreds of posts for lesser things.
I pulled out that one random thread from Seitse. Just went to a random page & found his absolutely disgusting thread on suicide. Total shameful mockery of a tragedy that good, decent people face every day in every corner of the world. And yet - nothing. No demands for him to recant or apologize (correctly, mind you...) No outcry for this or that...
Why is that?
Because some of the "men" in here will not confront him. He is clearly the Alpha male. And a few in here are intimidated by him. And so they let his outrageous, offensive rants stand. He gets a total pass.
But GB? No way. Onward & upward they march in their "principled" fight against his many crimes against humanity...
Has GB ever be in the wrong? Yup. As have I. And yourself. And every other poster in here. I am sure you would agree...😉
The daily hypocrisy and GB obsession/witch hunt is by far more sickening than anything he has ever posted.

If this situation was reversed and GB did what Seitse did you would spend no less than 300 posts spanning over several days/weeks on it and you know it.
Tell me I am wrong...
Originally posted by Landisqueen170Yes you are wrong. If Grampy Bobby posted like Seitse and did not start sneering threads ad nauseam with the undisguised purpose of browbeating everyone he disapproves of for their 'poor etiquette', I'd most likely just ignore him.
Wow.

Seitse is a self-confessed too-often-nasty buffoon and troll but he's open about it and exhibits little hypocrisy. I have been on the receiving end of it and I have confronted him many times over the years.
Having said that, Seitse stakes out no claim to be an arbiter of what "civility" or "etiquette" or good "breeding" as some do.
Meanwhile, Grampy Bobby is supported by the most prominently personally abusive posters currently active on this web site who defend him ~ never reprimanded by him, mind you ~ and his no-irony-intended and profoundly hypocritical campaign for forum standards. His supporters - and his attitude to towards him - make a nonsense of what he purports to stand for.
The difference between Seitse and Grampy Bobby is that Seitse - with his frequently indecent and usually desperately unfunny excesses - is exactly who he seems and claims to be. I have come to realize that Grampy Bobby is not - and I confront him for pretty much the same reason as you confront me.
Originally posted by FMFI asked you weeks ago to produce just one example of a post that showed you "confronting" Seitse and you were unable to do so. Dive also agreed that Seitse has, in fact, put out some pretty offensive things, and indicated that he also had "confronted" him on occasion. Again, not one example was produced.
Yes you are wrong. If Grampy Bobby posted like Seitse and [b]did not start sneering threads ad nauseam with the undisguised purpose of browbeating everyone he disapproves of for their 'poor etiquette', I'd most likely just ignore him.
Seitse is a self-confessed too-often-nasty buffoon and troll but he's open about it and exhibits little hypocrisy. I have ...[text shortened]... hat Grampy Bobby is not - and I confront him for pretty much the same reason as you confront me.[/b]
Yet you two are constantly asking other posters to produce threads to back up their claims.
Neither one of you "confronted" Seitse in this current situation. You both let his hypocrisy stand...even though you both were specifically named by him as being "witnesses." It was just Seitse trying once again to "bring GB down" and you played right along with him ...zero accountability for his fake outrage and misleading posts...
And what about his abhorrent thread on suicide? Surely, that rates just ONE post from you? You've been on & on about GB's suicide comment for months.
It is quite simple:
You confront GB because you can.
You do not confront Seitse because you do not want to be on the receiving end of his wrath, insults, and offensive posts that will be directed towards you.

Originally posted by Landisqueen170I am unconcerned about any wrath, insults, and offensive posts that could be and have been directed towards me by a poster like Seitse.

Originally posted by Landisqueen170So you personally don't believe that Grampy Bobby used some privately divulged information about Seitse's health to score a cheap point in a forum dispute a couple of months ago? And you also believe I was flat out lying about that incident prior to me apologizing for not being able to provide a link? Just to be clear.

Originally posted by Landisqueen170Well, if I am not mistaken, you confront me because you can.
You confront GB because you can.
If you don't wish to confront the likes of robbie carrobie, Grampy Bobby, Startreader, Suzianne and GHOST HUNTER, then you should not feel there's any obligation to do so.
Confront those you choose to confront. Treat others as you'd wish to be treated yourself. Call things how you see them. These are good rules of thumb.
Originally posted by Landisqueen170Actually, I've been "on & on about" Grampy Bobby's comment ~ to Kewpie ~ that those who disagreed with the "truth" about suicide were peddlers of "outright falsehoods and premeditated lies". You should read my posts a little more carefully perhaps.
And what about his [b]abhorrent thread on suicide? Surely, that rates just ONE post from you? You've been on & on about GB's suicide comment for months. [/b]
Originally posted by Landisqueen170Which one was it? There are a lot of 'Seitse threads' that I never even look at, let alone contribute to.

Originally posted by FMFSeitse himself disputes nothing that I said. Not one thing. He had nothing to say because I called his bluff and I was right. He dropped his outraged act and his faked indignation immediately. It has not been mentioned again. So you tell me?

And I have already said in another post that disclosing personally private info is completely WRONG and under the belt.
I publicly criticized GB for his insensitive comments on suicide. And I did the same when I recently came across Seitse's insensitive suicide thread.
I am consistent. Are you?
Originally posted by Landisqueen170I have found him to be unapologetic about the assertion that those who disagreed with him were peddlers of "outright falsehoods and premeditated lies" and I thought that was by far worse the most offensive thing he said on the subject, as opposed to his views on suicide being caused by a lack of honour etc. which I simply found to be ignorant.
