Hi shdbcamping
- any technical matter is beyond me
- oldies but goodies are me
This I think is rather new, tho
What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger

Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle

That a techie, non-mermaid question, I'm afraid.
As per Base Camping: Base Camp is not a team in your orthodox
perception of a team.
We stay in contact at our Base Camp Forum and band together for Treks
- we spent our New Year Trek here at EVGA, by the way.
Between Treks we are on walk-abouts or with our favourite home team.
You are welcome. You can still crunch with EVGA, and you can join the Base Camp Forum
- it tastes almost like some kind of camping, doesn't it, Sean?
Put Your Head On My Shoulder

I for one enjoy, Viper97.
Thank you for posting it.
Poems have this quality
of expressing a novel's worth
in a few lines
because they move something
deep, deep inside you ....

I think it's just as well that the topic came here from the EVGA forum, since it would have been the "elephant in the room" whether it was posted or not. This way at least we can discuss it.

Since I cannot reach into someone's mind and find their true intentions, I must assume that things were done with only good intentions in mind.

Afterburner quoted Stanford promotional material which may be misleading (in fact, I believe it is, and have previously brought that up at the "unofficial" folding support forum). I believe he did this in good faith and not with the intent to mislead. While I did not see the deleted thread which followed, again I have to believe AB that the moderation rules at that forum do not allow him to delete a thread that involves him.

Shdbcamping sent AB a note that some read as a thinly disguised death threat. Sean describes it as a gift based on his ability to foresee the future. I for one would not welcome such a gift, and I'd have to believe that most people would prefer not to know the date of their death in advance.

At this point I think the ball is in Sean's court. I don't think we have the right to "tell" anyone to leave. Sean, if you truly believe that the message you sent to AB forecasting his death was a gift, then the best thing to do would be to realize that you had mistakenly given him your prognostication for the wrong person, and retract the entire message. If instead your reason for the message was not good intentions, or you cannot retract it, perhaps this is a good time to take up LM's offer to go Base Camping.

Well, we can hide our heads in the sand, pretend it never happened, and let it fester, or we can address it and get it out of the way. I prefer the quicker route.
