    Ah, Master Lu, what a set up!!!! He's my idle when it comes to Mac gear. If I want to catch up to him, I'd better get on the ball & get that MC402 for starters.

    Man, I'd love to get my ears on that system for sure! When you talk to him again Gordon, tell him to watch out for the competition. :eek:

    F1 needs to chill out and put his shotgun away. There is likely something else bothering him in his life for him to react in such a manner.

    You're nothing but a trouble-making troll. You swoop in where you don't belong and take cheap shots like calling people elitests. What's bothering you in your life that you need to troll? What's wrong with your life that when you are proven wrong you can't man up and admit it? See the various threads where you were proven wrong by several people and just flipped it off. You are a coward.

    Unless I missed it there isn't anyway to track who posts the tags so you are just going to start laying blame to anyone instead of taking the high ground and just ignoring it?

    Matt, unless you are ignorant, and I don't think you are, who else wrote those tags? It's too bad we have cowards around who do stuff like that because the tags are meant to be a useful tool not for tools to write dumb things.

    Xcapri- Quit being so redundant, you Emo loving F-tard.


    Knucklehead-Lighten up man...it's only a word, and it's only offensive if you take it as such. It's not as if it really means anything. I call my friend f*#ktards all the time...it doesn't really mean anything though. It's just kind of something that you say.

    Words have too many stigmas.

    Such as...it's ok for me to say...fricken, when everybody in the world knows what "fricken" is supposed to represent, but god forbid I drop an F-bomb.

    Someone close to me is mentally impaired...my nephew too actually, but that doesn't mean that I have a big stigma around the word ****, or in this case, F-tard.

    Words only mean what you take from them. It's not as if anyone is making fun of mentally challenged people here. It's good natured ribbing.

    Welcome to the internet. Not everything is going to be to your liking here. It's not centered around you, and what you want it to be like. Sorry.

    The evidence is for all to see, sir.
    The subject is Emotiva, let's stick to that.

    You are the one who once again has been exposed and now all of a sudden you want to return to the topic at hand. Be off troll.

    Knucklehead phrase was from the three stooges which I enjoyed very much. Someone close to me is impaired and I dont like the word, whats the big deal?

    Is anyone here talking about your nephew? I think we were talking Xcapri and a few other people.

    Mainly XCapri of course(who has earned every bit of the title "F-tard").

    Grow some skin man. The internet doesn't revolve around you, and your definition of etiquette.

    Keiko is a cousin loving F-tard.

    See how I just said something offensive to Mike? It doesn't mean anything though, because I was joking. I don't really think he's a cousin loving F-tard.(or is he?)

    Take that as an example that words don't necessarily mean anything at all.

    We're going to have to get Knucklehead to write up a whole new set of rules and guidelines for Club Polk. Get ready for big changes everyone. Knucklehead is taking control.

    All I did was ask to stop using that word...thats all. As a courtesy to another human being that is impaired. some of you are trying drag me into a name calling sideshow here, i'm not doing it. you would feel differently if you knew where I was coming from. Keep saying it....whatever...let your true colors shine through. Where's the mod's when you need em?
