Again, I advise you to read up on netiquette. There are behaviors that are generally not encouraged on most forums and raising dead threads with no substance to contribute is one of them.

Oh... also insulting people for no apparent reason is also frowned uppon. Kindly refrain from acting like such a jackass. Thank you.

Yes that is correct. And that is your own fault as I explained in your other thread. Our memebrs will stop acting that way when you stop acting stupid. You're not the first to get this treatement and you won't be the last.

Generally what happens at this stage is:

1) You admit your mistake, adjust your attitude and everyone eventually moves on and you become a respetable member of this community.

2) You throw a tantrum, tell everyoen to fuck off, and you are escorted out never to be seen again

We'll give a second chance if you want it but you have to decide which way you want things to go from this point on. What happens after is just the result of your decision. For the record, I don't beleive that you are actually a jackass. I think you're a little ignorant of our culture and of generally accepted forum behaviors but those things can be learned.
