TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 I hold back a lot, but there is a bunch of kooks in this forum. Forky is a strange bird, but he isn't one of them. Your kidding right? That is highly offensive and disrespectful. It is also extremely weird. And others are weird and crazy? Right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BxEngine Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 I hold back a lot, but there is a bunch of kooks in this forum. Forky is a strange bird, but he isn't one of them. I agreed with your original premise...but didnt you have a meltdown about pazzo calling kevin martin crazy? Everyone here combined doesnt come close to the craziness that dude has...yet you took issue with it. Why call others here "kooky"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsPens87 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Why is that offensive? It's offensive because of where and how he got his avatar picture. Backed by what he is saying about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthShoreWx Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 So why does William get a pass? He has a dead guy as his avatar. Anyone who knows anything would know that isn't William. William is a lot older than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 This is highly offensive. Seriously, forky must be pretty damn close to the admins of this board... He's not going to be disciplined in any way so why bother piling on. Forky has always done what he's done/stirred the pot, this isn't anything new.

SnoSki14 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 That makes absolutely no sense. It's quirky...that's about it. So if he used a pic of your dead grandmother and then mocked it by saying it was his, you would be okay with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthShoreWx Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 I've enjoyed this lunch time diversion, but I feel I am not quite quixotic enough to endeavor to convince kooks that they are kooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just ashame that with his knowledge all he seems to do is come on an Internet weather forum and stir the pot instead of adding to intelligent discussion.

William and I are friends and I like to bust his chops a little about age (I am older than he is). Forky has been using avatars of a bunch of different old ladies for a while now. I was so relieved to not see MDecoy anymore that I was surprised another old lady caused such a stir. I agree it is quirky, but I was blown away by the "outrage" that it generated.

That's what he gets out of being here I guess. Regardless he doesn't seem to care what people think or say about his behavior so it's pointless to try to change it. If you really want him to change I'd just ignore him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is my perception that there is a certain mob mentality prevailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 It's more so that forky can do and say whatever he wants on here without any action by the admins If he does nothing that breaks any rules why should he be disciplined? Because you don't like his replies or posts? I can rattle off probably 20 posts from 8-10 other members that are just as questionable as his but they were not disciined either. He stirs the pot. The issue is how many of you eat off the spoon after he does. If you can look through the sarcasm (usually quite warranted) you'll find top notch Met info.

REDMK6GLI Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 LOTS of butthurt in here today. Its forky he does this to get a rise out of people and its funny sometimes. He is a pretty bright person as ive read some of his posts in here, he really isnt breaking rules perhaps really pushing the envelope. Ive always thought the avatars we're pretty funny, the chance of the family of the deceased person finding this is almost as low as hitting a record high powerball as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle W Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 there should be a way to block avatars...Some of them are distracting not to mention hideous...there is an ignor button to press...It comes in handy at times... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree it is quirky, but I was blown away by the "outrage" that it generated. I'm not outraged at all... he can do what he wants. I don't want him banned, I generally like his contributions. I just think his pathway to an avatar is pretty twisted and I found his false deference to the woman offensive. He's always been an odd bird, but this is crazy deep end stuff.

He's had these avatars before, from long ago. I remember a specific one he had of an old lady around early Feb of last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
