Because I've been in PTP for years now and seen him fight and seen the reasons why he fights. When folks come in and start in with "You're wrong" on the original poster, O_E's gonna come back with "You're wrong" and the whole shit is gonna begin. I wrote a clarification post so maybe folks can see where he comes from, and if they disagree with him from there, so be it. Shockingly, I'm someone who tries in every argument to at least SEE the other person's perspective.

He did. He's also said other things. Other things which I agree with.

This shit just sounds salty. I don't even really know what to say in response to that. I'm not sure what I did to you (I'm sure it's not just because I defended what O_E said), but I'm sorry, whatever it is. I try to keep people who hate me on this board to a minimum.
