Confused Confused

How would a post about "Furrykef"'s post at Antimoon relate to you, old thing?

Explain.

It's called "answering your question", old fruit:

And this is the way you answer my questions, is it?

You asked me to comment on a post at Antimoon; then responded with "Quite true". Meanwhile, the passage you quote incorporates an amendment you yourself suggested. So I don't quite see the problem.

Stalking is not a question of who joined a certain forum when, it's about what you do when you visit a forum. As I said, you follow me around and snipe. Why do you do that? What is this big interest you have in me? Why do you spend 50% of your time on fora attacking me, questioning me about my private life, accusing me of things you think are true? Why do you do that?

The answer begins with "because", but I expect yours will begin with "prove it" or something so pathetically chickenlike as that.

Our biggest sniper is now accusing someone of following him around and sniping. This person persecutes and then complains about being persecuted.

You've complained about that often enough, Jamie. Has anything been done about it?

First you ask me for my opinion in a thread:

Then you accuse me of "stalking", when I provide an answer. Curious.

Which forums do you have in mind? As far as I know, my registrations predate yours, wherever we both post.

All the best,

Which forums do you mean? Presumably you shouldn't find it difficult to provide links to such posts.

(Though I notice that "Milky", the poster you call your "husband", preceded my arrival at English Forums. Were you referring to him?)
