He insulted me personally. I just can't take it. He wanted me to provide him with entertainment. I am so sick of it. :cry:


But you know that you choose how you react to the insult. Take deep breaths when you see it and let it pass as YOU know what was said is not true, as do others, so you have nothing to defend yourself for.

Even if it's not true, doesn't mean that it can't hurt you. I don't like being hurt.

Nope, I dont like being hurt either but I think it hurts even more in the end to react as then you bring about more personal attack, and you let the person know they hurt you...and for some, that can be satisfying.

It's a matter of knowing that we are worthy people, who must decide what is worthy of our attention, energy, and emotional expenditure. This spammer most definitely does not measure up! DON'T REPLY. The mods will catch on, eventually.

Ignoring him is not that easy. Look what he did to a couple of other threads over the weekend.

Comfort yourself with the fact that he's probably a 20-something year old man living in his mother's basement. You can't take anything seriously from a guy who makes threats of world domination from his mom's basement.

OK, I ADMIT it! Sometimes I can be a REAL idiot socially! Will SOMEONE explain something to me though???? HOW does doing this give that idiot enjoyment? How does our response increase that enjoyment?

Guys, this ain't a crititism, but starting a thread over a guy who starts many offensive and, lets face it, bloody stupid threads seems a bit... I dunno... Ironic?

Now I'm a-wondering "Who the hells Atomika, and where are these threads?". Not a good start.
Would like a link to the threads, though.

Just for laughs.

Looks like they've been deleted.

You didn't miss anything, they had no entertainment (or any other kinf of) value.

Oh, you've not heard the Legend of Atomika? Well then take a seat by the fire and listen to this tale of magic and wonder...

Just think about the bullies at school, who got off on upsetting people that he perceived couldn't defend themselves. A person like this feels important and powerful if he can get a rise out of the folks at WP. :roll:
