Well, then why don't we play "What do you think of Owld Skipper?" Talking about people, esp when they are not even present, is gossip.

Maybe we should take this over to "talks behind their backs" forum... "You know Beaker was once a juggling clown but I hear lately he's forgotten how to juggle."Maybe then we'd get a laugh and people would calm down.

I wish Beaker's style weren't so provocative but it's finely-tuned at being just that: a provocation. It's up to the target to not be provoked, sometimes.
We've crossed swords, sure. We've also shared some of our life (travel, pets, music music music) outside of this forum and I look forward to the day we can have a pint and watch some live music.
Offense is always taken, never given. (With a few exceptions to this adage, it would seem.)

We are not discussing a public figure, we are talking about a fellow RPeep and whether or not you like him or not, this should be a discussion in private, not in a public forum.
